They seem to be a good support for a single person with walking difficulty who lives independently to have a connection for aid assistance if necessary on a price I can manage. They have been understanding in the times that I have accidentally set off my unit too. It's reassuring to have it.

Service is poor! I made a shoulder-high test long back but the result was not communicated for a long time. The package did not include any LOCKBOX. No response about this missing LOCKBOX for weeks even after reminders. Even after repeated reminders, the LOCKBOX was mailed only by GROUND! The LOCKBOX did not fit my door handle but no response from MobileHelp! I had to arrange myself a SHURLOCK to make your LOCKBOX fit in my door handle.

Elizabeth was absolutely awesome and very comforting in an issue where you’re dealing with an aging parent. She asked all the right questions, was lovely on the phone and very informative. I wish my customer service department had the level of expertise that you have!

I was very disappointed in the amount of calls I received after setting this up from my mother-in-law. She is still in an acute rehab situation where she is recovering from her hospital stay. I specifically asked to be contacted when we set up the equipment after I received 10+ calls a day to get this set up as I was told it was urgent however she was not even home yet. This is very disappointing.
The Final Word
While LifeAlert is a strong name in the medical fall alert industry, consumers seem to love their experiences with MobileHelp much more as evidenced by both the number of reviews and the star ratings of those reviews. That said in all fairness to Life Alert BestCompany does not have a partnership with Life Alert where we help them get more reviews and we do in fact have such a relationship with MobileHelp.
