I called several places and Medical Alert was the best value service that I could afford. Fortunately I've never had to use it, I guess I just happen to be lucky enough. The pendant is too sensitive. It has gone off a couple of times when I lean over to put the dog's dish down and things like that. I don't know if I'm moving to fast or what, but it always thinks I'm falling. One time the alarm went off accidentally and I never noticed. I had a lot of company at the time and I didn't even hear the phone ring or them calling me. Since no one answered, they sent an ambulance and the police and they came. So, even though it was a bit of a problem, it showed me that it works. They are easy to talk to and I haven't had any problems with them.

We saw it advertised and decided to get it for my husband. So far he hasn't had any falls or accidents, but we have talked to customer service on several occasions. We had the lights go off for a while, and they called us since they were not getting a signal from the thing. They were concerned and wanted to make sure we were ok. They know if the device is not in good working condition and they call us to fix it. So far they've been nice and they've also helped me when I needed to get an upgrade for the device we had because it was dying. They're very good people and I'm sure that if we ever need them, we would be ok. It's amazing to know that they are there for us, and that gives me some relief. I think that anyone that needs it should get it, it's not very expensive and it gives you security.

I got Medical Alert on the first place because I fall down from time to time. It's basically with me all the time, I put it on when I get up in the morning and wear it all day. When I go to bed at night I leave it on the side of my bed. On an occasion, my daughter's doberman knocked me down by accident. I hit the corner of the door and split my head wide open, I managed to push the button and they responded. I got help within 5 minutes, which was pretty great. I think that anyone who is handicapped or elderly should get one, it's a safety precaution that can help you if you have an accident. It probably saved my life.

I'm 89 years old and I live by myself. I do everything on my own, from cooking, work on my yard, and everything that a person would do from day to day or week to week. That's why my daughter and her husband decided to get it for me. I haven't used it, but I punched it once by accident and it went off. The person I talked to was very nice, and I appreciated her help even though it was just a mistake. I do wish it was a little bit cheaper, since I'm on social security and it's hard to get the money, but I manage. In any case I'm glad I have it because it gives my children peace of mind, and I know that I can contact them and get help if I need it.

Before getting it I had fallen several times, so my son and daughter-in-law researched it and helped me get it. It is very easy to use and customer service was helpful with setting it up. I haven't used it since I got it, but I've had a couple of surgeries, including a complete knee replacement. My family likes that I have it because sometimes they are out in the fields while I'm here alone. It makes me feel safer too. I wear the one on my wrist, and I've set it off sometimes when I lean against it, but they have been very nice when I tell them it was a mistake. The price may be a little high, but it's not too much. Besides, it makes a difference to have it and I'm glad I do. Doesn't matter how much I have to pay for it.

I got them because I liked the fact that they notify the ambulance quickly if my mother falls or something. My mother is very active so if she has to go shopping, has a doctor's appointment, or a therapy session, she wears the wrist thing. About 3 or 4 months ago, at maybe 4 o'clock in the morning she wasn't feeling good. She had chest pain, so I suggested she push the button. After she did, the person came on the phone quickly, and an ambulance was there within 15 minutes. They took her off and she went to the hospital for the emergency. So even though she doesn't really have a lot of falls on a typical day, I still feel safer knowing that she's using it.

I have the pendant that I wear all the time expect when it's charging. I'm very pleased with it I had a couple of accidental activation on it and the people who has answered those had been very kind and are glad that I'm okay. I had been dealing with another company and one time I needed them and I pressed the button and I got no answer. A friend was here with me and she ended up turning off that thing and calling 911 on her phone, also the fact that I can take this with me anywhere I go and know that if I press the button somebody's gonna answer me were with the other company if I was away I couldn't do that I would have to depend on dialing 911 on my phone if I could get through this if something happened so this is good that I can do this with your company and I couldn't with the other company.

You received my returned products on 2/26/26. On March 10th, Norleen confirmed that my refund had been processed on 3/2/26. Here I sit on 3/17/26 with no refund posting to my charge account. I have attempted 4 separate calls over the past 2 days......only to be placed on hold for what would be more than 30 minutes, if I had waited longer. ON EACH OCCASION. Just as I'm typing this, my hold time is exceeding 18 minutes. Would hate to think how'd you respond if I had an emergency. PLEASE REFUND MY MONEY!!!

Horrible customer service! Received multiple email, phone and home mail notifications that my account was over due when in fact it had been paid in December of 2025. After confirming with 4 separate customer service representatives that the account is paid in full, waiting several times on hold with billing (no less than 30 minutes each time before being allowed a callback request) and 3 emails to customer service, I am still getting calls and notifications. Billing does not return callback requests and I have yet to receive an email confirmation that the issue has been resolved. So frustrating and such a waste of time. We had used Medical Alert for one year prior and wanted to renew. Will not renew again and if this issue isn’t confirmed, I will be canceling.

I had my dad with this service for about 4 too many years. When he started becoming forgetful I order basically the pendant and bracelet and home monitor station. I initially paid for the GPS tracking so when he was out and about I could keep up with where he was. The GPS tracking almost never worked. It always showed him at home. I thought well maybe he's not wearing it - but I took it for several rides and it never tracked. biggest waste of money. What was worse is that when I called to cancel the tracking - the yearly price actually went up for just push button emergencies and fall detection over what I paid for GPS tracking. Before dad passed in December - he had 8 falls over a 2 month period of time and the fall detection only worked twice. It did not work on his last fall either that put him in the hospital prior to his death. These people are nice on the phone and act like they want to help you but good luck getting them on the phone, updating or changing service, and it took almost 2 months to get an account credit. Why didn't I stop it earlier? We did not realize until dad starting falling so much that the fall detection was not as we thought. If you are having any of these issues - please use them as warning signs. Always confirm the product is working as advertised.

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.

Fall detection alerts in the smart app were disabled without my knowledge or content. 1) My questions about the smart app fall detection alerts went unanswered for over a month, and the first question I asked before then was answered with incorrect info. 2) I hope the smart app is enhanced to indicate 2a) whether I am paying for the fall detection subscription, and 2b) whether contacts have a key. 3) When I originally bought my device I provided emergency contacts, but customer service never received them so I had to give them the info all over again. 4) Even though I'm able to have two phone numbers for a contact, only the first one is shown in the smart app. This is especially of benefit to other caregivers linked to my account. 5) It would be helpful is the smart app had a way to trigger the "find my device" ringing feature as currently apparently only tech support can do this.

I called to get some type of paperwork on a $15 monthly charge that I am paying. I had previously called when the charge started with no response. This time I did get the paperwork on the Premium Protection Plan which covered $10 but not anything covering the remaining $5 Charge. I called again today 10/9 and have been told that paperwork will be put in the mail. I do think that I should have received this info at the time I agreed to the charges without my having to request it. Note that the call was just about the paperwork and was by phone so your question about time of response below doesn't apply. My use of the devise for an actual fall has received prompt response for all but one instance where it took several tries to connect. One of reasons that I went with your system was the lockbox feature. I am now seeing info on systems that don't require recharging that I might have wanted. Also would like to be able to contact you on-line for issues like this.

My mom is 95 and lives alone. She had fallen before we purchased Medical Alert. This purchase was a great investment due to her recent fall. When her fall occurred, MA responded immediately. They talked to my mom who was not very responsive. Next, MA called the local rescue squad and my sister (I live out of town.). MA gives me peace of mind knowing that my mom is being monitored 24/7! MA was worth the investment.

Bill Macomb, MI

The button is a little to sensitive for me, I think people who have plenty of hand strength should have an option for an alert that isn't quite so sensitive. I realize it should only be used as a last resort since it's purpose is to save an individual in a situation of dire need. I don't know what a good idea to address this issue would be, in my case like last night, I rolled over in bed and my finger it it just right to set it off. Also, yesterday I was opening a coke bottle and brought it up to my chest since they sometimes require better leverage to open. To my surprise the bottle hit the button and set off a false alarm. Just a thought, I've taken to removing it at night when I go to bed and put it on my night stand. I can still reach it and hit the button, that works for me.

I would like to get monthly reminders of who and in what order my call system has on file. Originally the rep had the order of who should be called in the incorrect order. Also, when my mom had unplugged and plugged the system back in it inadvertently created an event where the last contact person on the contact list was called and in the meantime the police or EMT’s were called out. When I contacted MA, and told them it was a false alarm, they said that they would contact the back up emergency contact to inform them of this. Why wasn’t a follow up report sent? Without this, I have no idea of who was contacted and in what order.

I had to use the service several times when my wife returned from the hospital suffering from colon cancer and several times when my wife was in home hospice care. we lived 60 miles south of Presbyterian hospital in Albuquerque. She suffered for six months before she passed away. Now I have a dvice I wear around my neck that activates the device if I cannot reach the phone. I was told that a woman fell in her home and she laid on the floor for 28 hours before she got help.

We signed up for Medical Alert for my mother in February 2011. They were very reliable in contacting emergency services, and 3 family members whenever the alert was triggered. The company was attentive in contacting my mother periodically to make sure the unit was working. They updated their equipment and alarms periodically or at our request. We were very satisfied with Medical Alert's service.

They have great services. They are quick to respond even if it is a false alarm. My cat twice has stepped on the emergency button during the night and the medics showed up and I didn't realize the button was pushed until they were coming up the steps calling my name. They were very nice and understanding. Now I take the necklace off at night so it doesn't happen again.

Very good service. I live in NC and my mother lives in NH. This was the best company I found after researching many. Set up was extremely easy. Even when my mother lost her bracelet, they replaced it free of charge. I feel much safer knowing my mother has her bracelet on. Plus having the fall detection aspect of the device was what she needed most of all. Now that she's monitored I can breath a sigh of relief knowing that help won't be far away.

They are very prompt to speak when I punch the button whether in the house or outside the house. Have had to do that several times and help was on the way very quickly. One time I had fallen in the yard. They got no answer from me so they tried to call phone number listed and got no one to answer so they sent the EMTs and quick response Fire Response.

Haven't had a problem with the device that wasn't corrected. In addition to the last review I would like to say we were out and visiting an aunt for the day. My mother had a fall and I called the medical alert people to get her assistance. They were able to call EMT to come and assist her to her feet so we could finish our visit. Again they deserve 5 stars. Thank you for all you do.

My 91-year-old blind mother falls frequently, and when she cannot get up, she simply pushes her button and within minutes the EMS team arrives and helps her up and make sure she is OK. Before she had the medical alert, she fell and laid on the floor all night long next to her bed. I never want this to happen again! The device allows my mom to live independently for as long as possible.

It just dropped from my bed to the floor and it dialed Medical Alert. So I know that it's very good if I fall. It's going to go off. The customer service are so so nice. You never get someone that sounds like they are tired or upset because we drop the medical alert and it goes off. They ask if the person is okay and that they are authorized to use it. Then they ask about yourself and if the person that you live with is okay. I just felt really really special.

They were very very helpful in making sure that if something should happen that they could get into the house. They set us up with a lock box and all of those things in the interior. So far, it's been a rather helpful tool for her and gives her a degree of comfort. So we are pleased. They do stay in touch and they want us to stay in touch and when we get negligent, which we often do, they will touch based to find out if everything is okay.

My device accidentally alerted the company and I did not hear the device in the other part of the house and help was here within 10 minutes of when the alert apparently went in. I don't answer the phone if I don't see a name or number I recognize and therefore didn't get the call from Medical Alert. My son called as you had notified him and his name showed on the phone so I answered his call. Now I know that a call from Medical Alert will show up on phone as "Rap Resp" so will know to answer it if it happens again.

They are quick to answer your questions. I am simply put out of one thing. I did not even have the device for two months and was informed that I had to get another device for around my neck to do different things. I think because it was so new I should have gotten it to begin with and not made to pay an additonal $40.00 for it. If this happens again I will simply cancel it. It is not as if I am senile because I still drive to and from work and work every day!

It gives us, (the family) piece of mind in the event of a fall. However the person who is benefiting from the service believes it is a waste of money and refuses to wear her bracelet. Her family is grateful that there are several buttons in her home in the event of the inevitable fall. She believes we should cancel the service because she has never had to use it! Very frustrating for family who live a good distance from her.

Very easy to use and I find it very efficient. I did a lot of research on other brands and companies before deciding on Medical Alert. I have the GPS because we do a lot of bike riding and I wanted security if something happened. I feel confident if I have an emergency that they will be on top of it. When I do my tests they are right there. Anybody I have interfaced with has been more than courteous and they take the time to explain stuff. They are always there when I pick up the phone.

Medica Alert is always helpful with answering questions and walking me through things. I have always been satisfied when I have questions. I know they are there if I need them. I feel comfortable having it because I am a widow who lives alone. I wear the bracelet all the time. It is expensive and hard for me to keep up but I feel I need it in case of an emergency.

it's worth the amount of money you pay for it. I am very happy with them. I use it in the mornings when I go for my mile long walks and when I run my medical appointments and stuff like that. It works and anytime I have accidentally dropped it or do something I shouldn't, it goes off and they are there. They have great customer service, they call and make sue verything is okay and the device is working.
