The personal alarm from age uk was the best choice that i have ever made,it is so very easy to use and gives me more sense of security. I have pressed the alarm by mistake a few times and within seconds been connected to an operator who are so very professional. I always say im sorry in which they reply that it is certainly not a problem at all and say that is what they are there for and to make sure that i am totally well. The service is 100 percent and i totally RECOMMEND (im 94)

Hi Jean,
We are so happy to hear that our service has met your expectations and that our team were helpful and friendly. We are especially glad the new pendant has made a positive difference for your mother. Thank you for your kind words.

The alarm system is good, some of the support less so.
The alarm system is good, the personnel generally helpful. The system with 2 pendants the main or primary one of which has GPS tracking in it hence can be worn outside the owner's home with the confidence that she is still being looked after is excellent. It functions well and is effective and the primary pendant encourages independence even at advanced age.
However when a 94 year old loses this main pendant alarm and is told that she can not just replace the pendant but must repurchase the whole package, that is now twice or thrice the original cost - the sheen dulls considerably.

Réponse de Personal Alarms from Age UK Trading
Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for your kind comments about the alarm service. We're pleased to hear that the GPS alarm has helped your loved one maintain their independence while providing reassurance to those around them.
We're sorry to hear about the loss of the pendant and appreciate how disappointing it must have been to learn about the replacement costs.
Our Customer Service Team has recently tried to contact you and has left a voicemail, as we'd like to discuss the options available. The replacement cost reflects the fact that our alarm equipment is provided as part of a monitored rental service, rather than being purchased outright. This means the equipment remains our property while we continue to provide 24/7 monitoring and support.
We'd welcome the opportunity to speak with you directly to explain this in more detail and help find the best way forward. Please do get in touch with our Customer Service Team at your convenience, and we'll be happy to assist.
Thank you again for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Hilary

I have set off the alarm accidentally twice, he call was answered quickly and I was addressed by my name.

Poor battery power
I've found the battery to be very annoying as it doesn't last very long and I have to keep charging it up however when I need it the response is very good what's annoying is i have to charge it before I can use it which is very inconvenient and delays me by several hours sometimes, as a medical device this isn't very good at the most it might last 12 hours or if I go out and about a lot less maybe eight hours this needs to be sorted,
