Your policy of not part refunding annual payments when someone dies (4 months in) leaves a very bad impression of your company. It makes you seem mercenary and we will not be recommending to others

Dear Geoffrey, Thank you for getting in touch. I am sorry to hear about your experience. From looking into this further, I can see that you do not have an alarm service from us but instead ordered a phone through our website. I am sorry to hear we were out of stock of the phone you ordered. I am sorry that you have had this experience. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, this has meant that our Web team has removed the phone completely from our website. Should you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Kind Regards, Rebecca

I informed the company a year ago that we would not need this device in 2021. I have emails confirming the cancellation of the service. They have just taken £174 from my bank account.

Avoid paying upfront . My elderly father in law ended up in hospital after a fall and is likely to be there for a considerable time (12 weeks so far). Contacted the company as we don’t need this for the foreseeable . As we paid up front they refused to cancel the subscription or refund any premium . Should we have paid monthly we would have been able to cancel without penalty. Disappointing customer service as a loyal customer . Shall not be restarting but using an alternative company from now on .My advice , avoid .

Dear Martyn, Thank you for your feedback. Our Customer Services Team received a call requesting to put the account on pause whilst it could not be used, and given the circumstances we have gladly done so for the period you mentioned. This will be reviewed nearer the time, so you are not losing any of the time on the account. We do offer a discounted rate if you choose the Annual Plan. If there is anything else we can assist you with, please do not hesitate to ask. Warmest regards, Lifeline24.

Dear Harry, Thank you for getting in touch and for bringing this matter to our attention. I am very sorry to hear of the problems you have experience with your new order. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide. I can see you have been in touch with our Customer Service team who have been able to send your replacement equipment out with next-day delivery. As a goodwill gesture, a month of free service has been added to your account. Again, I would like to apologise for any upset or inconvenience this may have caused. Please do not hesitate to get in touch should you require any further assistance. Kind Regards, Rebecca

Dear Bernie, Thank you for getting in contact. I am very sorry to hear that the alarm was not suitable for you. From looking into your account I can see that you have moved to a similar service provided by your local council. I can see that you have since returned our equipment and the account is fully closed. Should you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Kind Regards, Rebecca

I’m afraid my Lifeline 24 has not been a success. It appeared to be interfering with my wifi so I disconnected it. Now the wifi is working we have had two attempts to reconnect it but it doesn’t work. When I have some spare time I will ring your helpline. I like the little dished alarm.

Dear Ursula, Thank you for getting in touch. I am very sorry to hear of the difficulties you have experienced with the setup of your alarm. The alarms we use work completely independently from the broadband. In fact, you shouldn't even need to touch your internet connection in order to set up the alarm. This would suggest there has been a slight error in the installation of your alarm - but should be a very quick and easy fix. I have contacted you through the email address you have provided in this review in the hopes of organising a call from a member of our friendly Techincal Team. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to get in touch should you require any further assistance or wish to provide any further feedback. Kind Regards, Rebecca

Set up service was good and processed quickly ! However I paid for one year in advance £149 on 29 th sept , unfortunately my father in law ( who I bought it for ) passed away on 17 th December ! I informed company in January and returned all the equipments as asked . I received confirmation it had arrived safely . I called company to ask if any remaining months would be refunded and was told no refunds ! Absolutely Disgusting! I work as a nurse and would never recommend this company to any of my patients absolute rip off ! It was not the lady on phone I spoke to fault so I remained polite but asked her to convey my dismay at this ridiculous situation! She then spoke to accounts who “ as a matter of goodwill” would offer £29 refund ! Big deal outrageous PLEASE AVOID THIS COMPANY ! There are much better services available to protect your loved ones ! lifeline 24 you should be ashamed!

Dear Ms. Diplock, Thank you for your feedback. I have looked into the account for you and as you have mentioned, this was on our Annual Plan. We offer Quarterly, Annual and Lifetime plans and each are priced accordingly – as such you choose which plan you would like to be on at the point of order. As you say this is a payment in advance. It would not be fair to other customers to refund after offering a lower cost for choosing a longer plan, while charging others a higher rate for the benefit of flexibility on the shorter term plans. We do offer a transfer of service for any remaining time, although it is your decision whether you wish to make use of this or not. In this instance however we have offered a part refund as a gesture of goodwill, despite not being obliged to do so. If there is any further advice I can provide, please do not hesitate to ask. Warmest regards, Lifeline24.

Anyone contemplating purchasing a lifeline alarm should seriously consider whether they wish to take up the "special offer" of a reduced monthly payment by paying for 12 months in advance. My father only had his alarm for 2 months before he passed away and we then discovered that it was company policy that no refund would be due. This was not obvious to me when selecting from the options on the website

Dear Glynis, Thank you for your review. I am very sorry to hear that you did not receive the alarm as expected.

Poor system - it makes an annoying squeak every so often when connected to their call centre - apparently they know about it but it’s how it works ! - as you can imagine really annoying when trying to talk, let alone in an emergency.

My mother passed away she had paid a yearly contract in September so the contact do not start again till October she passed away in the December all of the equipment was sent back but they will not give a refund on what's left of the term. they have no bereavement line set up all they said you can pass onto a family or friend this was not disclosed at point of sale. and even in he contact it does not state that no refund will be given, miss leading information and this is wrong. they are meant to take care of our mums and dads that need this service but will not refund any money if payed upfront for a yearly contract.

Everything worked fine whilst my mum had the system however. When she passed away they wanted all the equipment returning including the pendent. She was wearing this when taken into hospital and unfortunately passed away whilst there. We never received the pendent back from the hospital and thought nothing of it. Now lifeline24 are demanding it to be returned or we shall be charged £49 for it. Currently getting no help from their customer service and zero sympathy. All they did was offer to lower the charge to £20. Remember when saying goodbye to your loved ones to take the pendent back off of them. Unfortunately I never got a chance to say goodbye to my mum. Words cannot describe what I feel towards Lifeline24.

Purchased system for my mother who had recently suffered a stroke .Alarm arrived by post promptly but we were unable to be connect due it being incompatible with phone line which is connected via internet router.Called customer service to report issue to be told that they would send out the part to connect with router.Waited a full week and called again to be told they would resend which took an additional week .Part arrived after second week but was incorrect.Cancelled the service and returned the alarm only to receive a 27% refund on a €169 purchase in less than three weeks of constant disappointment and frustration.
