Clinics Alternative to Releaf

[CrankyYankee]

Hi all, new member, long-time cannabis user for a variety of medical conditions. I've done a search but can't find this specifically covered elsewhere, so apologies if this is info is already posted somewhere here - I have been with Releaf for about a year, their customer service is good and their prices for bud are reasonable (ish),the quality of what they have is decent, but they have a limited selection that's continually out of stock, and their monthly fee is ridiculous (£40!).... I'm looking to potentially change clinics to one with a much larger and more stable selection, and ideally with a much lower (ideally 0) monthly fee. I've looked at a few, including Alternaleaf and cardiff, but they all start looking the same after a while. Which one(s) in the UK offer the widest selection of high-quality flower? Price is a consideration, but not nearly as important as quality and choice. Who are people using now that ticks these boxes for them please?

Hi Cranky and welcome to the forum. I started out with Releaf but quickly moved due to the limited selection and overcharging.
If you don't mind the £40 per month fee Cardiff allow the use of any and all pharmacies. I think you quickly recoup the monthly fee in savings as you can shop around.
Alternaleaf have a large formulary as do Integro and Medicann. Alternaleaf fees are £5 per month, Medicann is £5 per delivery but no other fees
Almost any of the big clinics will be better than Releaf

Welcome to the forum @CrankyYankee and it's finding the balance that suits you personally and I'll say all clinics will have a better set of options than Releaf and at cheaper prices too and I can understand you feeling they all look the same but each has it's own differences and with the clinics that are basically free to join or damn near to it they're usually offering products from their formulary and a couple with the option to order from outside pharmacies if needs be to get the item you want and many clinics offer transferring for free and then just postage and the cost of your meds , Cannabis Clinic Cardiff the clinic I'm with offer a different service as they don't have their own pharmacy so this means you can use any pharmacy which has the knock on effect of being able to select from all medications available and not be restricted to what your clinic has stock of ,they also have a 1 hour consultancy at the start and the 30 mins consults every 3 months and is why a lot of the expense is attached to it but I effectively can get my prescription cheaper as I can find suitable meds more consisstantly and save money on my previous clinic this way .

Thanks both for such fast responses! I've inquired to Cardiff, they seem like just the job, I was leaning that way initially but good reviews from people using the service locked it. At the moment, Releaf has 14 flower lines in total, 4 of which are out of stock... They partner with Glass Pharma and the stuff Releaf carries from them is (in my opinion) nice, but lacks punch. Probably ideal for someone new to the whole thing to be honest, but Releaf relies on 4C Labs in Canada for their heavy hitters, which are continually out of stock... Thanks again, I literally just found this site today, and feel incredibly late to the party lol...!

Better late than never. Releaf have done an excellent job of advertising and putting themselves at the top of every search. If they had RRP on flower and used Xeal pharmacy properly they would be a good clinic but 14 strains is next to useless. I think there are something like 300+ strains available across all of the pharmacies

Exactly!

Yeah I've switched to Alternaleaf now, I can't update my details on here for some reason but the difference is like night and day - the only good thing I can say about Releaf is that the customer service was good, and the people were nice. Apart from that... the range is tiny and half of it is almost always out of stock, it's all the same price, and the monthly fee is criminal. I've already had my first order from Montu and it's like being given the keys to Wonka's factory... XD
