It is available when I need it. At first the device didn't respond if I fell. Since I now pay $10 more a month it is super sensitive and I need to cancel the call several times a day.

PROMPT RESPONSE BUT CONFUSING AND HARD TO UNDERSTAND. THE RESPONDERS SPOKE TOO FAST AND DID NOT ENUNCIATE CLEARLY SO IT WAS DIFFICUT TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY WERE SAYING. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT WAS HAPPENING AT ALL IN REGARD TO WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO DO. THEY SEEMED TO BE IN A HURRY TO MOVE ON TO THEIR LOAD OF WAITING CALLS.

I feel as if their medical alert took advantage of me, they charged me $34.95 for over 5 years while everybody else was getting a much lower rate The fear mongering CONTINUOUS calls of' you could fall you should get the fall alert necklace or bracelet it'll cost more month but I can walk in your price and that way we can never jack up the price on you blah blah blah the price will go up eventually this would lock it in blah blah blah I quit using the service You got to representative seek me out bargaining Finally got down to a right around $20 a month And now this month I was charged $30 from my bank account UNTRUSTWORTHY

I like that I can wear my pendant and be anywhere and help can come to my aid and I don't have to just be at home all the time I like that help will be notified either by myself or by someone with me and that also either myself or someone with me can speak to the people at Medical alert and get advice on what to do until help arrives

I have previously called about an issue where the alert button says "battery charged" at the most awkward an inappropriate times (i.e. during church, funerals, meetings, etc. ) Because I can't trust it, I have to remove it from my person and place in my purse where it's likely to be muffled and less obvious to be heard in quiet settings.

Many times the person answering the call cannot hear or understand me even if I talk loud and clear. When I have a false alarm and I say cancel alert I still get connected to a rep. And this Is annoying. Also the automatic fall detection button is too sensitive - goes off at the slightest tap. I’m very short and I can’t keep it high enough on my chest so when I bend over for anything it often goes off at the slightest touch. I’m considering cancelling it.

I LIKE THE WAY MEDICAL ALERT RESPONDS TO MY QUESTIONS. THEY WERE SLOW ACKNOWLEDGING RECEIPT OF RETURNED ITEM ON MY ACCOUNT RESULTING IN MY RECEIVING TWO CALLS ASKING ME TO TEST MY EQUIPMENT AND ONE CALL REQUESTING A PAYMENT I DID NOT OWE. THE CALLS WERE AN INCONVENIENCE/ HOWEVER, ONCE I EXPLAINED THINGS THE ISSUES WERE PLEASANTLY RESOLVED.

Excellent and near immediate response to emergency signals, very helpful staff at their call center. The only complaint is the hair - trigger sensitivity is the pendant 's Red button. It can trigger an alarm just by swinging against your body while ,(clumsily) getting into the shower, or standing up quickly.

I assume your system is automatic as when I called to notify you that I was without electricity to charge my system and not to call my children, they were called and I was reminded during the night to charge my unit. This is very disturbing and I sincerely hope you are able to find a fix for that problem.

I talked to someone from your office to tell you it took me a long time to get the red light to say your device is charging. Sometimes I count each time I try to get it to charge, and I have counted thirteen times before the red light would come on. Maybe that was because I was a few days from charging it every month on the first day. But lately it is doing fine. And I know you keep a good check on it because you could tell me the time I put it on and the time I took it off. So, I know you are checking it and I appreciate that. So, thanks for doing a good job for me.

I know very little of other similar systems, but I find this one short on features. You cannot speak through the pendant, which causes me to hobble painfully through the house on a false alarm. They do, however, call before they dispatch emergency services, and I try to keep my cell phone on me or nearby at all times..

They advertised the fall detections pendant and it is a joke. To test it you throw it in the air and it lands on the carpet and does not go off. The place I spend most of my time is in my carpeted house or maybe outside on the grass so the alalarm would not work there. The only place that it would work is if I were to fall on concrete or a very hard surface. If I were in that type of situation then there would probably be someone to help me like in a store. I cancelled the detection pendant after about a year as I considered it as being worthless.
