I haven't had any problems with it. They answered right away, even when I made the test call. I tested it once and called about a blue light not flashing and they fixed it right away. It is a little heavier, the cord on my neck bothers me.

I'm getting good follow-up and everything. It's gone off a couple of times and I don't know why, I gues I bumped or something so they are going to check it to see if it was set to loose or something. They've called me about three to four times since I've gotten it. They want to make sure i was alright.

I like the fact that it has a built in GPS on it. The calls are answered promptly. They were very courteous and wanted to make sure that there was no problem. They were very courteous and concerned with my well being. All in all, very nice, very professional.

We had some trouble because one of the pendants wasn't working so we had tosend it back and they had to send us a new pendant. But after that everything's been working okay. I appreciate the quickness that they got a new pendant over here.

I haven't had to use the device but I did test it a couple of weeks ago and it worked very well. Being able to call somebody if I injured myself is a nice piece of mind. I think its great to be able to wear it around my neck and I have that available.

I think it's very good both the one for the wrist and the one around the neck. I like them very much. I did not have to use it yet. Thank goodness. I tested it to make sure it was working for me and you know both times they answered very well. They were very polite.

Very responsive. One time I called in and added another caller to my list and she was very helpful. When I tested it, they were very fast responding to my call. When I call in every month to check on and they're very responsive, very fast answering me. I haven't had to use it for actual emergency yet thank goodness.

Enormously easy to use. I love the suggestion they gave of putting my list of medications on the refrigerator and the key on the door lock so that if the paramedics come flying blind, this way they know exactly where to go I really like that. The only time I tested it was when I first got it I did it the way it

Their calls are professional, but they are a little slow on their response time. I like that it's easy to carry. There's a time that there was almost a full minute delay, which is a long time. A lot of people die in three to five minutes but I don't think there's apparently anything else we can do to make it faster in your answering the call for help. The only thing that I don't like is that anytime I go out of the house I always have to take a little device with me that goes from my wrist to the device.

The thing that I like best about it is that my family knows if I have a fall and I can get immediate help. They do exactly what they say they're going to do and they are there for you so you don't feel like you're all by yourself.

It was very easy to sign up and I feel like the the rates in terms are very reasonable. My dad inadvertently used at once and the people were very kind and considerate in responding to the need but we've not needed to use it yet. I like the fact that its easy and there are 2 forms of notification.

I haven't had it very long and I only have once mistakenly push on button when I was moving furniture. I have no complaints but I've had no experience yet. I wish it didn't blink because it makes people ask me questions that I don't want to answer.

It's a handy thing to have in an emergency since I'm alone. Well I like it because it's handy and I can wear it around my neck so I wear that all day. Then I put it on my night stand at night,so if I get up during the night I have it right next to me.

When we push the button, the guy answered so I guess it's good. I hate wearing the thing around my neck everyday, but I do it because my daughter in law is paying if you wanna know the truth. The wrist one doesn't fit me well so.

I've tested it and immedaiately they call in so I know it's working. They don't seem to have good communication between each other. Like I got a letter that said I needed to set up my system, but I had already setit up. So they need to get their act together in the sense that they need to communicate better between the different departmenst so they don't look foolish.

I lost my necklace in the parking lot at a doctor's office and I didn't realize it and you made it easy for me to get another one. I feel very safe with it. I did a lot of homework before I chose your company and without a doubt I chose the right one.

It's easy to set up and easy to test and they were actually able to speak with someone. When we tested it we actually went down to the basement and we were able to go all the way up to the top floor in the back of the house so it's got really great signal. Every time I've called and talked to them, they've been very helpful.

The most important reason I rate Medical Guardian the best in the business is because I trust they will be there when I need them. There are so many indicators that they are reliable, trustworthy, efficient and caring to trust that they will be there if needed.

I like that they're very prompt when you pushed the button for them to help you. My granddaughter recently pushed it she didn't know, I just had it hanging on my walker and she pushed the button and the next thing I know they are calling wanting to know if I needed help so that was, that was pretty heart rendering to me as an elder.

I like everything except for the little rubber thing that they put the medical alert button in because sometimes that will stretch out. The other day it fell out and I couldn't see it and the alarm went off three times. They're just very good they're quick with their response and even though it went off three times no one was nasty they were all very nice people.

They are quick to call you back to see if there is an emergency and if you need help and that's a good thing. I like the fact that It works. I have not had to use it yet but it has gone off twice and you have been Johnny on the spot to call and see if I'm okay.

It works so fast. It interfered with my clothing that I wear. I've set it off accidentally three times since I've had it. I had to rearrange the lanyard that is hanging on because I'm not very tall and when I caught up against the counter. The people who answer are very nice when I accidentally set it off.

I have accidentally used it twice but I accidentally pushing the button once while I was sleeping and once while I was I guess laughing and fooling around with my granddaughter and my daughter and I got a quick response. They've heard the phone ringing and the quick response, "Are you okay?" and everything and I was quite pleased with that. And then I also called once because I was having trouble charging it and they went through how to charge it and I've had no trouble since then.

As soon as I have a question or if I call in they can answer my question real quick. They're very punctual about getting back to me. I used it accidentally and they responded immediately. I just told them I didn't mean to hit the button. They said that was fine and they would reset it.

The only problem I had when we tested it was I could hear them but they couldn't hear me. I had to go over to the right to that machine to talk to them, we couldn't talk across the room. I like that it's with me all the time in case I need it.

I have a hard time carrying it with me without it setting itself off. I am not able to wear it because the pendant is to big to be wearing everywhere. It's very sensitive. I tried to put it in my pocket but it goes off. I put it in my purse and could here it talking to me at the grocery store. It had activated and I told them it was an accident. I think the customer support is great.

Except for customer service I'm very pleased with it. I can go anyplace with it. I can travel with it and charge it when I travel. It seems to be working quite well when I call in and test it. The operator answers right away. I was put on hold with their customer service several times. I've waited as long as 15 minutes and had a very hard time getting it activated. Also I wish there was an improved string to wear around your neck.

They were real prompt when I had a problem and it's a very secure feeling when you go outside and if you fall and get hurt, somebody is there to help you. About two weeks ago, I had a pill stuck in my throat. They picked up right away and got in touch with my two daughters in the ambulance and they were here within ten minutes.'

The wrist element is desigened too thick and has never felt confortable. I takes a little longer for an operater to answer than expected. I live in 2 different locations (FL & NC) and have to phone the main office to reregister the neighbor phone numbers. It would be more convenient to have allow alert neighbor registered and only notify when I change locations since the GPS reports where I'm located when activated. Otherwise all is satisfactory. Operaters are excellent.

It's so easy for my mom to put the wrist unit on and keep it on 24/7. I live in a different state than her so it gives me peace of mind to know that if she has an event, it will be monitored and acted on for her best interest.
