Hilda Bedford Cary, NC

Deceived....was told that their Smart 2 phone was a US only phone. Cannot make international calls. Senior Mom has trouble "accidently" dialing international numbers. 2nd bill that came was over double the expected amount. Turns out they charge international calling rates for international calls sent OR received. Unwilling to do anything for their false information that I used to make the decision to purchase their phone and service. Very disappointing.

Website is deliberately designed without the ability to stop service. Greatcall is on the West coast with business hours that make it difficult to reach them. They do NOT prorate so if you finally get through to them the day after the service cycle ends they will happily charge you for a full extra month. Should you dare point out that this all of these points amount to predatory behavior, they will hang up at the earliest possible moment with little or no attempt at "thanks for the business" that most companies will provide even to angry customers.

I've been a reluctant Great Call customer for years because I purchased their Jitterbug smart phone for seniors. Their phone breaks down frequently. Their "customer service" has to one of the worst in the business. They have reduced their hours, have no 24 hour chat service, and provide a useless email contact that rarely replies to your messages for help.

Bad customer service - elderly parent has the phone, wouldn't even know how to text, asked for no text service but auto texts come in on the phone for $.10 each. Small amount but no refund offered even for the small amount. Account was supposed to be setup with no text. Phone only rings part of the time, can't seem to get it to work with customer support. very poor company

If I could leave Zero stars, I would. I have had the Jitterbug flip for 1 week, with a request to port a tmobile phone. I have been given 3 Great Call pin #s, been asked 4X to verify that I am the account holder for my 90 yr old aunt (tho the phone is in my name/cc). All in all, 12 calls in 5 days and it's brand new each and every time. It's all unknown each and every call. And this is a company that purports to be of service to seniors! One week later; still no phone. ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!!!!!

Terrible pendant device . On my 3rd one in 2 years. The lost service time while waiting and paying for new ones is not reimbursed. At this rate the annual average fee for replacing and activating a new device every year is about $100. Company overcharged 15.2% sales tax on replacement when the sales tax in my area is 9.1%. Also charges 12% on monthly fee instead of 9.1%. State tax departments should investigate.

Thank you everybody for the reviews. I will absolutely never use this company. I am in the market for my mother. And after reading through their policy for great call rides I was kinda disgusted, and didnt need to go any further. It came off like a blood sucking scum of a company. But figured I'd check out some reviews. What a surprise I was right! Its unbelievable how some companies prey on seniors, most on fixed incomes. I do work in Capitol Hill for alot of big wigs, I'm going to bring this company to their attention

Don’t bother calling for there pendant because they dont have any. I got one from my health center and tried to activate it. Then I called when it didnt work and they said your device is to old and you cant activate it so sorry. They offered another device but when I called back about it they said they aren’t going to get any devices the 5 star pendant until the end of February. Again said so sorry and hung up there phone.

One star is too much. This is a scam in my opinion, charging way too much to vulnerable older people. The service is lousy, the phones are cheap and hard to use. My Dad is now in a nursing home with no memory of his pin, and they won't even let us out of the contract without his authorization! Even with a written POA they say it's about security. What a load of crock.

SERVICE NOT RELIABLE - We ported over my dad's Verizon flip phone the day after Thanksgiving to a new Great Call Jitterbug phone. It is now 2 weeks later and the service is still NOT WORKING. He has fallen twice and Great Call had disconnected his Verizon account so he still has no cell service that works! They have no accountability and make mistake after mistake. Just terrible service.

Caller ID stopped working on my mother's phone. She only responds to the phone when she sees it is from one of her kids (she is 99 and fearful of scam calls). GreatCalls support said they are aware of the problem but have no idea when it will be fixed. two weeks later - nothing. I cannot phone my mom and she is effectively cut off from the outside world,

Second they say..oops...we forget to send it. Third they tell me I cancelled the order...seriously?

Called the company to have that feature removed, never wanted it anyway. THey said there is no way to shut that off, I even tried taking over the button, still won't stop it .

Had the phone for over 6 years and paid almost $3000+ for the six years..finally cancelled the service that never worked and then continued to be billed after I cancelled service for the next month. The phone is in the garbage so I cannot use the phone that doesn’t work and service cancelled but still must pay another month after $3000+ paid for a phone that never worked?

This is the worst call service ever. I called to activate 3 times and I was hung up on after I asked to speak to a supervisor. After I had to call back the supervisor was just as rude as the original call taker!!! I was talked over numerous times and the length of time to activate was absolutely unacceptable. Horrible service. Stay away. Stay far away!!! Worst service I have ever experienced by anyone for any service. It is not worth it at all. Could not believe the customer service treatment.

We were having lunch at a popular restaurant when my 94 year old father passed out. We pressed the button and the person who answered could not hear us although we were screaming into the microphone of the device. They could not locate our location even though we were in a central area. We had to call 911 from our phones to get the paramedics to come. The device is supposed to have GPS capabilities and it seems that was not working either. A huge letdown and very worrisome for seniors who are alone!

GreatCall has excellent customer service but their technical support is horrific. My father has not been able to use his phone for a week as they are unable to push through the necessary update. No amount of escallating this resolves the issues. If he could use another service I would cancel his phone and switch services in a second. Its inexcusable that a company that deals with seniors and their safety cannot fix this issue easily.

We tried to pass on to another senior citizen to set up their own account , they said it is outdated and we can not. Only 6 months old . What if my mother was still alive? Couldn’t she use, their answer was yes , so what’s the difference? Terrible customer service. Representative hung up on us. Asked for at least upgrade or credit , got no where! Ridiculous !

This company is supposed to provide fall detector and medical alerts, three years of wasted money. This company is a danger to consumers. After receiving a brand new fall detector because the old one was outdated the new was recalled and my elderly father was offered a flip phone instead where you would have to open it and call someone.

When it did not arrive, despite an email with a non working tracking number, I called back and was told that they recalled the unit. It would have been nice to tell me so I could proceed with finding another service. Now they have my $86+ and will not refund me until I return the device. It has been over 2 weeks since I cancelled the order and they still have not processed the return label. FIND ANOTHER COMPANY THIS ONE IS NOT RELIABLE.

I found GreatCall to be intentionally deceptive. I purchased a phone and plan for my mother. She needed something very basic. Beware the plans have high fees for data usage and creates a trap for users. My mother ran a $75 bill for additional usage for literally using the phone five times. The representative put me on hold for over 15 minutes and never returned to finish my call. Overall, Greatcall advertises a senior-friendly experience, but the devil is in the details and I feel taken advantage of.

This service is fine for Seniors who do not have dementia.

My jitterbug phone always has poor signal strength. I can't use it as a phone because the reception is so 'garbled'. I first got the smart phone but it was so defective that I couldn't use it to send text messages nor was the signal strength strong enough to use as a phone. edited Aug. 29 I canceled lively mobile and replaced it with Medical Alert Guardian since they are rated number 1. I was so furious with Great Call for blocking me on Face Book.

Reply from GreatCall

Margaret, we appreciate your feedback. Jitterbug phones were specifically designed to work on the GreatCall network which is powered by the nation’s largest and most dependable wireless network. Service is based on the coverage in your area and even in a good coverage area, things such as weather, building materials, topography and other environmental considerations associated with radio technology also affect service and service may vary significantly within buildings. A poor or fair signal will directly affect quality of your calls. To check the signal on your Jitterbug Flip phone, from the menu, scroll to Phone Info and press yes, you will see the battery and signal strengths. With the phone open, you can walk through your home to see where the signal is the strongest, which may give you a better call experience.

Got this for myself, they do not bother to tell you that the pendant has a non stop white blinking light. You can not turn the light off without turning off the pennant.

I called to ask if they would waive a return check fee on my senior mothers account. She accidentally grabbed a checkbook on an account that had been closed. Great Call would not waive fees (citi card did) even though she has never paid her bill late and has been with this company for about 10 years. She may make 3-5 calls a month (maybe). We had called them as soon as we realized what we had done then wrote another check and still paid before the due date. #suckstotreatseniorsthisgreatcall

Spent more than 4 hours trying to get this done. Each time I called there was something different needing to be done.

I set up the account and my husbands name ended up on the bill. I wanted to set up the security password to access the account but they wouldn't me until they spoke with husband. He is 83 yo, hard of hearing and is in early stages of alzhhimers. I set up the account, and I pay the bills. Told them I would cancel with the next bill and they told me I could not that they had to speak with him. Guess what? I'll get them to cancel it. I just won't pay the damn bill anymore and they will shut it off for me.
