While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Fantastic customer service

Fantastic customer service. I called another competitor before life alert that was actually cheaper per month, and yet chose to go with life alert because of the outstanding customer service and clear directions.
