MobileHelp Medical Alert Review 2026

In our review, we discovered that MobileHelp offers one of the most affordable medical alert systems for seniors in the industry, while delivering the same level of benchmark protection as other top providers. 

How do they do it? It's simple. They're the ones that actually manufacture the equipment for most other medical alert companies. As a result, they can pass along the savings to their customers while still being FCC, FDA and UL certified.

MobileHelp was recently acquired by Medical Guardian, giving them access to even more of the best life saving technology and service on the market.

YOU WILL LOVE MOBILEHELP IF YOU WANT:

Fast Response Times - Excellent emergency response times as low as 19 seconds, with fully redundant 24X7 monitoring stations all located in the United States.

Excellent Range - MobileHelp's in-home cellular device offer 1400 ft of range between base station & pendent - the length of four football fields - you're covered!

No Long Term Contracts - MobileHelp has no contracts, so you can cancel anytime. This is good for those who don't know their long term living situation, which many older adults find themselves in.

YOU MIGHT NOT LIKE MOBILEHELP IF YOU WANT:

Low Prices - MobileHelp now charges $24.95 per month for its in-home wired and in-home wireless systems. This is not the lowest price in the industry, but it's still very reasonable.

Free Returns - MobileHelp charges a $50 restocking fee when you cancel your contract, even if you return an item during the free trial period.

A 30 Day Trial Period - MobileHelp has reduced its long standing 30 day free trial period to 10 days. We believe this is too short a time to truly get a feel for whether you or your loved one will like the equipment and use the system.

Customer Support Line Open 24X7 (emergency assistance is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week) - While MobileHelp's emergency monitoring centers and help line are open 24X7, 365 days a year, their customer support line (which handles billing, shipping, and technical questions), is only open 8am to 8pm est Mon-Fri and 9am to 6pm est Sat-Sun. This may be inconvenient for some on the West coast especially.

HOW GOOD IS MOBILEHELP'S MONITORING?

MobileHelp offers 24X7 emergency monitoring through a partnership with a monitoring company called Rapid Response. Rapid Response has been offering emergency monitoring for over 25 years and has two redundant monitoring centers located in Syracuse, New York and Corona, California. Rapid response is CSAA  and UL certified. They offer service in over 240 languages and their monitoring center staff are exceptionally well trained.

HOW GOOD IS MOBILEHELP'S CUSTOMER SERVICE?

If you're looking for the most affordable pricing on the market, without compromising on the quality of the equipment or monitoring, MobileHelp is definitely our recommendation. The only drawback is, they're a little heavy on up-selling items like their warranties. Most of their value can be had in their annual plans, which you can still cancel at any time and get a refund for the unused portion of the plan.

• Free activation
• Free shipping (on annual plans)
• Free equipment

SHOULD YOU GET A MOBILEHELP MEDICAL ALERT SYSTEM?

If you are looking for best-in-class safety, ease of use and reliability, but at the lowest cost and best value in the industry, we highly recommend MobileHelp. Despite having some of the lowest prices in the industry, they are still using the same equipment (they actually make the equipment many other medical alert companies use) and monitoring stations as the majority of other providers. They are also the only ones to be FDA and FCC certified.

Not only that, with free equipment, a 30 day money back guarantee on monitoring costs and free cancellation with pro-rated refunds on the annual plans, they make it easy to try risk free.
