I had only had Medical Alert 4 months, when I fell in my closed garage on 11/13/2019. My left hip was broken, and i could not get up. I pressed my Medical Alert bracelet. They contacted my daughter in Dallas, Texas, my niece locally, and within 20 minutes the responders were here. They were able to use the hidden key to gain entry, found me, and got me to ER. Without the Medical Alert, who knows how long it might have been before I was found!

I have had my Medical Alert for just abou ta year. Everyone there has been very caring and helpful. I've had to call several times when I've fallen in my yard. I have neuropathy in my legs and feet and cannot get up by myself. In July, I fell in my driveway and had an open fracture of the elbow and a broken hip. All of the emergency personnel were wonderful. Each time I've had to call, everyone has been very comforting and caring, and knowledgable with my injuries.

.Was told when I signed up by Pam D. that price would never increase. On 10/14/25 per Catherine ?? that for additional $10.00 /month device replacement insurance. On 11/25/25 per Antwon T. that for additional $5.00/per month price was guaranteed for the next 5 years. He said he would talk to supervisor to try and get a better price and that he would get back to me the following week. I called and e-mail him 3 times since then and still have not heard back from him. I DO NOT LIKE TO BE DECEIVED OR LIED TOO. Charles M.

The new one out (wrist model) was not set up right. The band could not be latched so I sent it back. I'll stay with what I have. I wear both the wrist band and medical alert unit. When the medical alert is being charged I still have the wrtist band on. OIt works out fine.

You are using AI..not for our benefit but only for yours. I went thru all the promps with your AI "person" gave "her" all the information she requested. She connected me to a live person who proceeded to ask me the same questions. What good is AI but to make you more profit. Fix this.

Wanda was very helpful when I ordered this system for my mother. When it arrived, there was no medical alert bracelet and we have tried several times to have it sent (we were told it would arrive in the mail). Set up was also difficult as there was no person available to speak with (seemed to be and AI voice). Finally was able to reach a customer service rep to help.

Worked like a charm. My almost 96 year old mother was dizzy about 7 AM. She knew enough to push the button - and was able to hear the responder talk. She told them the problem. They were unable to get in touch with the 3 local contacts, so they called EMS. EMS knew how to get in without breaking the door. I was able to go to the emergency room (after I was aware of the issue) and be with my mother. I was extremely pleased that it "worked like a charm". It also gave me confidence in them.

Customer service is good Ppl that answer the alert is awsome and helpful. My medical Alert button is awsome. People loves it because one day I was at my center and I lean over to get something off the table not hearing my alert goes off so I was just talking to my friends 3 big mens came in the center lol we all was confuse why they are here we look at them they look at each and everyone to see if it was a problem. So they ask is anyone wearing a medical Alert button.?before I can anything everyone pointed at me they question me i was good and they left. We had a discussion about it they wanted to know how did they knew where I was. They was told it has a tracker. They was talking about getting one I actually felt so safe that medical Alert button company cares I felt special that day.

Michele Polsgrove

Terrible customer service. My mom passed away and they are being very difficult to deal with in getting the account cancelled. They tell you what to do via automated message, then they say they need more. Sent that, and then no response at all. They deal with elderly clients, so this process should not be so hard. I have gotten nothing but the run around, and when you call you get transferred around and/or told there is an hour hold time. Do not use this company if you care about customer service.

An ongoing problem is that the device I have alerts A number of times a day that I have fallen. The alert is put on the device and I then I also get a call. Yesterday I think I had 8 or 9 alerts. It can go off just when I am sitting and not even moving my arm. There is not any one such cause. I can be sitting in a chair which happens several times when I am visiting a friend. Device goes off whenI am in bed sometimes and just laying in bed. I know I have to call you folks to try to get device adjusted. It does get frustrating. Often I will just take device off my arm.

The cost per year that I paid was high enough, but I since have had to add $15 per month for a feature that I thought was standard, if I drop the device it will sound an alert. Then I get another call that I need to sign up for $5 per month insurance on the equipment that if it is broken or lost that I won't have to pay $800 plus to get it replaced. Seems like their is no end to the additional charges.

I like the safety and confidence the Medical Alert gives us, and i like that a person answers to help. However, I have concerns. He fell, and the medical alert did not go off. His Apple watch called 911. and they put him on hold. when I found him, I struggled to help him get un-contorted. I called Medical alert and they said you have to press the button for 30 second. That isn't always possible. it may be buried under his clothes or he may not have use of his left hand, the right is paralyzed. it was good to know why it didn't help and so we need to make sure he always wears his Apple watch. I don't know how the product could improve to avoid these issues.

First, the stars will not let me click to where there are 3 unless I am looking at it differently than most ratings that I get on other things. First, I am putting it on a 3 here because, I constantly get false "readings" or calls! I have NEVER fallen since I got this Medical alert watch back in January 2025 (I think it was January since I fell on December 22 or 23 (since I had to have emergency brain surgery I really cannot remember the exact date (and I do not remember nor have I received a hospital bill due to very good Medicare Suppliment that happens to happly pay all of my doctor bills! I have been blessed, for sure. But to continue to get false readings that have caused 3 or 4 emergency crews showing up at my home/apartment it is embarressing that they spend their time to deal with a false call when they could be helping someone that really needed the attention! I did not and do not know how to do anything other than push the button on the bottom of the watch. I have never taken a shower with it on as I do not think it is waterproof and I use VERY hot water nor do I want to wait for the watch "band" to dry before putting it back on! Those are my main conderns and the fact that I was to receive a very nice watch for Christmas and now have to have this ugly looking thing is not my most happy moment, BUT, I KNOW I need this watch.

Nancy Gomes Inverness, FL

Funny, as I was dismantling my old Medical Alert box, I dropped the plug, then dropped the unit as I tripped over the wires and fell. I hit my orbital bone and nose on the floor which resulted in the mother of all black eyes. I did get the new unit properly installed, and the fall detector is working fine. I tested everything, telling the person who called that it was a test and everything was fine. The fire department life support unit and an ambulance with EMTS showed up at my house a few hours later, just checking that I was OK. They said it was a service and there was no charge. It was my second fall of the week, the first fall resulted in a trip to the emergency facility. I had a broken rib. Luckily I have not fallen since.

Sara Lovelock, NV

Since I've had my Medical Alert bracelet, I have accidentally set it off and response was immediate and insistent. I was sound asleep at 4:30 a.m. and was awakened by what sounded like someone talking just outside my window. While I was drowsy, the "person talking" got progressively louder until I got up to investigate. The lady on the unit was polite and explained my unit had alerted, she agreed it was an accidental alert and she wished me a good night. I'm impressed and would readily recommend this product anywhere I thought someone might benefit from having it. It simply makes me feel safer in case of a fall or accident in my home.
