The reassurance of wearing personal alarms
The alarms are easy to wear (on wrist) and sensitive to sudden movement. Responses from the call centre staff are very prompt and helpful (even in the event of a false alarm). Being both in our seventies it is very reassuring for both my husband and myself to have this back-up as neither of us have close family members to call on in an emergency

Hesitant but now glad
I was persuaded to get an alarm after a fall. Found it easy to sort out. Looks like a necklace so when I used it at first without telling anyone they were unaware it was an alarm. Gives the family peace of mind.

An invaluable piece of equipment
After talking to Age UK lady I was contacte within a few days and got me personal alarm within a week. I had never even seen one before. After reading the book which came with it and doing several test runs I felt confident that it was one of the best things I have got to make me feel safe and secure. I spend a lot of time on my own and walk my dogs twice a day, often without seeing anyone else. I often wondered what would happen if I had a fall or somethine happened to me as I have recently been diagnosed with a heart condition. Now I feel I can go anywhere and my friends and family do not have to worry so much about me.

I bought this device after having a fall and having not assistance until much later in the day, my daughter could not get any answer from my mobile phone m which I had left in any room.
I've yet to use it. This device gives you peace of mind. The call button is around my neck 24/7, it's shower proof. How much does peace of mind cost 24/7 ?

GPS pendant and Key Safe Process
We discussed mum's needs staying at two different houses with two daughters and the GPS pendant with a key safe for each house were bought.
The key safes did not arrive so I called to chase and they were finally sent out.
When I pressed the pendant noone answered what could have been an emergency. On my second attempt someone answered after a delay and when I explained that I was calling with the key code and location for the safe installed at my house the advisor stated there was no record of mum staying in two different houses and I would need to ring customer service.
I rang them and they advised I had been connected to the wrong department and I would need to call back again.
Three calls and an hour later an advisor noted the safe details but I am not sure mum's situation has been understood.
I'm also concerned that my first attempt to contact the emergency button was dropped and I had to press again to talk to someone

Svar från Personal Alarms from Age UK Trading
Hi Christine,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
We're pleased to hear that you chose our GPS alarm to help support your mum's independence while she stays with both of her daughters. However, we're sorry to learn that your experience did not meet your expectations.
We apologise for the delay in receiving the key safes and for the time it took to update the information on your account. We appreciate how frustrating it must have been to make several calls to resolve something that should have been straightforward.
We've reviewed your account and can confirm that we do have details of your mum's second address and key safe on record. While our system will always display the main home address first, the additional property information is available to our Emergency Resolution Team when needed.
We're also sorry to hear about your concerns when testing the GPS alarm. As the GO alarm uses the mobile phone network, connection can occasionally be affected by mobile signal in a particular location. This may explain why your first test did not connect as expected. We always recommend testing the alarm in the places where it is likely to be used, to help provide reassurance that it has a reliable connection.
Thank you again for your feedback. It helps us identify where we can improve both our communication and our service, and we're sorry that on this occasion we caused concern rather than the reassurance we aim to provide.
Kind regards,
Hilary
