Sometimes takes a long time for someone to answer. I tested it a couple of weeks ago and I called in and no one answered. Customer service is horrible.

I have had problems with the device and called several days ago. They couldn't solve the problem and had someone call me back. That person said some tech would have to look into it to make it work. No one ever called.I called the other day but no one in the office due to holiday. I will try calling back again.

I don't like the fact that it has to be charged for so long daily. I think that kind of defeats the purpose because my mother will charge it but then forget to put it back on.

Reply from Medical Guardian

Hello Dorothy, thank you for review! We would highly recommend charging the device overnight and have it close to her bed if possible to ensure that she would be able to reach if during the night if she were to need it. When she gets up on in the morning, it will be fully charged.

The button did not work in my mom's home. Customer service told me that it could be because of aluminum siding or a metal roof. If this is the case, why is that information not apparent on their website or documentation. I could find nothing about that.

Medical Guardian automatically deducted money from my account without having authorization for a second year of service. When I contacted them, they said return the device. I sent a he device back and they only refunded a portion. I've called multiple times and talked to multiple people with no results and without a full refund.

Paid for 6 months of services that never worked. Still waiting on refund from October and I called and they said they lost my equipment in the warehouse and never posted that they received it. Yet the tracking said they did. I feel as if they scam the elderly. I would give them a negative star if they had it

Billing after cancelling service. Not updating recordd with new address, and sending bills only after they are past due. Sending more equipment after cancelling service to wrong address. Bad communication. Very shady practices.
