We did not go with Life Alert. The Rep was arrogant, using scare tactics and stating if we went with anyone else, anything that happened to our mother was on us. The pricing is astronomical too. Asking about the $49.95 amount and Rep said that is on the internet and it’s 10 year old pricing info. No impressed with attitude.
We’re sorry you feel you had a bad experience with us. As the only medical alert company proven to save a life every 11 minutes, our pricing is quite reasonable considering all that our customers receive from us, such as, devices that never need charging; a technical service dept. that monitors the equipment; our own dispatch center that is fully trained and HIPAA compliant; but more importantly, our ability to get our customers help fast, 24/7.

Several years of usage and I have to say I am supremely disappointed in the attitude of the emergency reps. They escalated a situation during TESTING and it led me to realize this was not a healthy or safe service for my mother any longer. She heard the call and did not feel comfortable having them represent her safety any longer.
Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. We deeply regret the experience you had with our emergency center during testing, and understand how unsettling it must have been for you. Our priority is always to ensure the utmost safety and comfort for our users, and it's concerning to hear that we fell short.
We have reviewed your feedback internally, and your situation is being directed towards the management team to ensure corrective actions are taken. Furthermore, if there are any additional issues or details you would like to discuss, please feel free to reach out. Your trust is important to us, and we're here to support and assist in any way we can.

My husband got this when he was suffering from debilitating hydrocephalus. He called Life Alert just for information and prices and wasn't thinking clearly when the Life Alert salesman pressured him into signing a 3 year agreement. I got on the phone quickly to put a stop to it, telling the salesman my husband was not of sound mind, that we needed to think about it. That booger pressured me, saying this was even more reason to get it... like if I didn't, I didn't care about my husband. His quick talking with a slightly aggressive tone also pressured me to submit. Several months later, my husband had surgery to relieve all of his symptoms and he's a new healthy man who doesn't need Life Alert. However, he can't get out of the 3 year agreement and will continue to have to pay $109 per month for the next 2 years. Do not even call these people unless you know how to hang up the phone when they start getting aggressive and manipulative.
We are very happy to hear that your husband is feeling better. That’s Wonderful! Please know that Life Alert is the service that is used by active subscribers as well – this is why we offer packages with outside of the home devices! Life Alert doesn’t cold call or telemarket, people call us when they want to know more about our services. Although our Care Manager was very nice and informative in providing all the information needed to make an informed decision, we did not hear anything that would indicate pressuring you both into signing up with our lifesaving services, nor did we hear our agent imply that you did not care for your husband. Conversely, we notified you of our terms before you signed the agreement. However, we do care for YOU BOTH! We want you to know how important it is to have our services in any emergency, for any person. We have already spoken with you and offered a financial solution that is in your favor.

I wish I knew how it happened, but when I woke up, I was on the floor and the house was completely dark. Even the TV was off which is unusual for me. Looking around I thought I was in the bedroom until I saw the sofa. I could not get up so, I crawled to the coffee table and found my Life Alert watch and called them. They came right away, but could not get in. The hidden key did not work, but one man found a window unlocked. I have gotten new keys and friends had lights put outside and inside. Life Alert was definitely a life saver for me. They were so polite and I would like to “thank them” for a job well done.

I will never use or recommend Life Alert. Life Alert would not cancel our parents' subscription even after we sent a doctor's note and in writing. They kept charging them 8 more months (but stopped monitoring them) until we called again. They then charged us one more month. My parents aren't able to monitor their finances so they thought it was cancelled. Life Alert took advantage of their age and mental acuity. They refused to refund the money even though they had not been monitoring the last eight months.
Thank you for contacting us. We understand your frustration and we are sorry you feel you had a bad experience with Life Alert. Per our recorded calls and automated records, after we received the documentation needed to cancel the account, we attempted to contact you to start the cancellation process, but you did not return our calls. The account is now closed. If you have any further questions, please call our billing dept. at 1-800-803-6320. Thank you, Life Alert.
