Have not had to use this yet, but even when I dropped it, they immediately responded as the “drop” to them was considered a “fall” and they wanted to make sure I was alright! SO nice to know they are there if needed! They even told me not to worry when I apologized for dropping it! They just wanted, again, to make sure I was OK, and would've sent help had I needed it!

The one time I really needed it, I fell going to the bathroom, fell again in the bathroom. I got no response either time, I then pressed the button and waited for 7 or 8 minutes, I was able to get up finally and called 911 on my house phone. After about 12 to 15 minutes they finally responded.

I prefer to wear a bracelet rather than a necklace. I've had two bracelets and didn't like either of them. I would prefer one with a clasp, like a watch. Right now, I'm not wearing anything as I can't find my bracelet.

I talked to a rep when my price was raised and asked to be billed every month , and that has not happened. I assume I will get billed when my next billing cycle comes up. Am not happy because that is too much at one time.

When you call for technical support they can't answer questions in customer service about the battery issue and Techs aren't available! Automated messages are not clear which product is low charged so confused

Your marketing dept. sucks! Sends us stuff that we didn't order, the best one is insurance for a unit that lost , stolen or damaged. Talk about trying to take advantage of seniors????

Very disappointed with the service we have received. I have requested repeatedly that communication only come to me and not my mother and you continue to contact her. Also, we have had difficulty returning an item that doesn't work. No one is capable of sending me a return label for the item so I can send it back. Simple request, but no capable employees!

It is a bit too highly sensitive. I'm always setting it off inadvertently, so wear my old one now and will wear the "fall alert" in the spring when I am outside more.

I have a problem with their ethics. When I called about a small problem, they used that date and said I had called to sign up for more expensive services which I had not and which I cancelled. Kind of a scam.

Most elderly people have some to extreme hearing loss. There should be a volume control on the base station. There's no way my dad can hear it in another room and can barely hear it when it's next to him.
