I have found the telephone service to be excellent and delivery of the product was very prompt. Hopefully there will be no need to test the system but i have every confidence it will stand up to expectations

The call centre staff are excellent - very helpful. The wrist-worn sensor works pretty well, as long as the wearer knows it won't set off the alarm if they move after a fall - they then have to press the button to activate it

A very quick response to my request for a Lifeline 24. I felt apprehensive about setting it up when it arrived, but the instructions were clear and very helpful, so I was able to fix it and test it without any difficulty. I appreciated that there was a special offer on when I ordered it. Everyone I have spoken to has been very helpful. Thank you!

I purchased this for my father, he is now saying he doesn’t need it. So far it’s not been out of the box. However, purchasing was easy, with staff being very friendly and helpful. I just need to work on my father now.
