It is very sensitive but when it detects a fall they are on the line immediately. I like that is has GPS but it should be smaller.

Battery goes dead too quickly. I have bumped it 3 times accidentally and they answered right away. It is way too heavy to wear around the neck.

This is fairly new to me, but my medical alert works good and the people are fine. I would say it is fairly expensive.

The customer service is on top of things to be sure. I don't like the device because I have to carry the separate speaker thing along with the device I push if I fall.

When I ask for my location, they can't give it to me. They say someone will call back and then they never ever call back. The device seems to be okay, but the customer service is sorely lacking.

I do not like the look of their necklace and the alarm that we have to wear is inconvenient and uncomfortable. When I accidentally hit the button, they call immediately.

They charged my credit card for another year without my approval. They have NO right to do this. I did not say I wanted it automatically renewed. I don't even know how much they charged me. Because it is waterproof I been getting in the pool with it on. Found out yesterday that is a nono.

They don't know how to handle things. They keep calling the people in my contact list saying that there's a problem or something when there's no problem at all. They even sent me a new unit and it's still having problems. Evidently they don't work right.

I wasn't pleased than I had fallen several times but medical alert wasn't alerted of my falls. I just didn't want to pay for a service I wasn't actually able to use. When they tried to problem solve over the phone I dropped on carpet, then something harder. I don't always fall on concrete. Just didn't work for me.
