We have been trying to cancel life Alert for 3 months since our mother passed. Life Alert has been extremely difficult to deal with. Yesterday they promised to have the equipment picked up by UPS, and like all their other promises, it was not delivered.

They make it extremely difficult to cancel the service. First they tell you no one can help you at this time and someone will call you back. When you have to finally call back then they want a power of attorney faxed over. They do everything possible to stop you from canceling.

Life Alert absolutely refuses to cancel the contract. There have been a number of false alarms. The paramedics have come to my house twice in the past 24 hours. Once at 3:30 in the morning. I called Life Alert and asked them to turn off the unit and they refused.

This is a horrible company!! They had me sign a contract for service and didn't explain that it was for 36 months. They deny this, but they are predators and fraudulent in their practices, praying on seniors! Do not sign up with this company and never for 36 months. When I spoke to them all they could do was regurgitate there script.

I called Life Alert twice to get some pricing as my mom just passed away and I needed something for my dad. They hung up on me twice because I would not give them my full address. I just had 2 questions and hey would not answer them for me- I was told they are in "the free brochure they will mail me" So ridiculous. They just lost a customer.

The people at life alert harass you and hang up on you when they don’t make a sale. With this type os salesmanship, I would be very cautious and apprehensive of a purchase of this sort for a loved one. Extremely disappointed with a company that’s suppose to help those is delicate and fragile stages.

Horrible experience. Mom tried to cancel on second day after install, within the 3 day cooling off period required by California state law. Company refused despite certified letter. She disconnected the device that same day, and it was 6 days before Life Alert noticed and texted to ask if she needed medical help

DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR PHONE NUMBER!! I made the mistake of calling them simply for a brochure for my mother. Now they call EVERY DAY twice a day! I got so angry at the woman tonight I told her I was blocking her number and already signed up with another service. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY OF YOUR INFORMATION!!

Piece of crap . I'm paying for a service but they don't service their equipment . When ever there's a problem somebody on the phone wants to walk me through fixing it , they charge to send a tech to fix their freaking equipment . That's bullshit! Moms old and I have a job ! Searching to replace these sick weeds with someone who will send help !

A total rip off company!! Tried to cancel and got nothing but harassment from them. They threatened to sue--for what? Not needing the service anymore? DON'T EVER USE THIS COMPANY UNLESS YOU ENJOY HARASSMENT, RED TAPE, AND LIFETIME AND BEYOND CONTRACTS.

They provide decent service BUT when my mom went to an assisted living home followed by a nursing home they REFUSED to cancel the service without proof that she was deceased or in the nursing home. They consider once one signs up that it is a LIFETIME contract that can only be cancelled with absolute proof that the service is not needed.

Gave them my moms address to send brochure and they somehow got her phone # and started calling and harassing her. Called two different numbers to put her on do not call list and they both hung up on me. They lost me as a customer. Glad I read these reviews, these people do not care!

Company representatives lie to get your contract. State that if you wand to cancel, all you need is a doctor's letter stating that service is no longer need. I had service for 1.8 years, then need it no longer and they refuse to cancel my contract, even though I have a doctor's letter. RIP OFF!! THEY LIE!!

They turned my smoke detector off and I had a small fire at my house. If I hadn't been awake and able to put the fire out my animals and I would have burned alive. They said the smoke detector was too sensitive, but would not replace it. I don't trust them to detect CO2 or to get help if I fall or become ill.

If you get this system, be prepared to use it til you die. It is incredibly difficult to get out of the contract.We are moving to Assisted Living Facility and they need to verify that they are a 24 hour care facility. Why does Life Alert care where we go. We DO NOT WANT THEIR SERVICE.

Life Alert never mentions a three year contract on the phone. Only if you read the paperwork closely will you know ithat you signing a 3 year contract. They told my mother it was a month to month after specifically asking if she had to sign a contract. Fraud.

in asking for details about how the system works all the rep. wanted to do is talk about the condition of the person who it was for not how the system works. We live in the country so the cell service is pool and when I would ask about what was needed he kept going back to what is the persons condition.

Customer service bad got my equipment was unable to contact anyone till Monday . Poor communication . Have to be in the room with monitor to talk with person when bottom pushed. iAs a retired nurse I feel it's not user friendly. I'll see how trying to close account is.
