Reliable problem solving

An unusual problem, which issues in general require the assistance of a technician so we're not needlessly and inadvertently sending any alerts to all of our account contacts.
The technician provided the guidance to effectively solve the problem, courteous and helpful.

Problems don't seem to get resolved…

Problems don't seem to get resolved permanently. I have repeatedly asked to remove the feature which locks the wearer out at some time in the evening. It has been apparently corrected several times but then reverts to this nuisance feature.
Perhaps pulse rate is sufficiently accurate but pedometer is a very bad joke. It is not remotely correct and has been so for a year or more. No indication this will ever be improved. (better to just eliminate it, in that case)
But more serious, when my friend, whose fall watch is identical to mine (and bought together) slipped and fell on the street and came very close to being crushed by a truck, the watch FAILED altogether to alert ANYONE. The sales person concluded that maybe the phone service was somehow not working at the time. He said the company was in the process of arranging to have access to ALL the relevant phone companies in the country, not just a single one. NO one has ever reached out to confirm that this has been done. My confidence that the watch will actually work when needed is very low.

Thank you for this detailed feedback — you've raised serious concerns and we want to make them right. The evening lockout issue should not keep recurring, and above all, a fall alert that doesn't go through is something we take extremely seriously. We'd like to review both watches, confirm the network coverage fix on your accounts, and follow up with you directly until it's resolved. Please call us toll-free at 1-855-905-7414 and ask for our President, Chris Bertelli — we want to earn back your confidence.

Thank you, Helen! We're glad the experience has been good so far — and honestly, we hope you never need to use it. It's there for you 24/7 just in case. If any questions come up as you settle in with it, we're only a call away.

Reply from Galaxy Medical Alert Systems

Donna, we're sorry the device didn't work out for you — sensitivity and speaker volume matter a great deal, and we appreciate you telling us why you cancelled. If you'd be open to it, we'd love a chance to fit you with a different unit that suits you better. Either way, please call us toll-free at 1-855-905-7414 so we can make sure your account was closed off properly and hear more about your experience.

Galaxy Medic Alert is a first class organization. They are prompt and always courteous, even whenI accidently press the alert button. I would highly recommend them to any future client.

I am generally happy with my galaxy…

I am generally happy with my galaxy device, but have a couple of things which concern me. I have had several false alarm "fall detected", but on the one occasion when I did have a fall (had to go to hospital Emergency - fractured humerus) the system did not detect the fall. Secondly, after charging, the "battery full" statement often has a very low volume (almost impossible to hear) and I worry that this low volume would prevent contact in an emergency call. I reported these in an E-mail a while ago, but got no rspomse from the Galaxy office. My suggestion was that I be provided with anew unit, and return the present one for servicing - but no response!

TrustPilot and Galaxy: Take Care of This Client


Please delete the review by Linda posted August 29. Her full name is given and the review consists of her statement that she doesn’t want her name revealed. This is a problem TrustPiloy should have fixed but since Galaxy is working with vulnerable people, it should provide backup for them. Clearly the review technology has failed this client.
I have not personally used the service but can’t find another way to flag this issue.

I had a problem with my watch

I had a problem with my watch. It wouldn't charge. Could not get anyone to return my calls after I left a message. Chris came thru and sent me a new charger immediately. I had no working watch from Friday till Tuesday morning.
