    I called because my former device first off the finger probes fell off and I had to put them back in place.. Second I lost that one and ordered another one.. When I got in touch with them to ask when my device was coming, the background nose sounded like the place was in a dog shelter and construction being done.. The *** said he was in the office for Alivecor, but that could not be true.. I asked him was he at home and he assured me he was at work in the workplace, people laughing loud and talking loud , dogs barking and it sounded like there contruction being in the place So loud

    Frightening experience. Was being charged for a service order I apparently "placed but never activated" therefore am being charged $99/year. The customer service agent ***** agreed my account didn't show a service and agreed there was no way to cancel online and only by calling him. He just told me he'd talk to the marketing team and he was "pretty sure" they'd resolve the issue then said he'd "guarantee it". We'll see. He agreed that it was unfortunate that there was a billing cycle created that he could not stop. Crazy. Don't use Kardia or Alivecor. It's a joke. Glad I happened to check my bank account statements.

    I've contacted then multiple times in the only 2 ways you can for an almost $200 device and I've done everything their website says and when I called customer support they just gave me the same runaround and spoke to me as if I didn't know what I was doing. I have multiple email threads I just want to use my device to make sure my heart is stable at all times.

    I purchased their unit KardiaMobile.I have made many recordings and took them to my family doctor, and she told me that these units were unreliable, and I should not trust them, I try to show my cardiologists and he would not even look at them. I have seen 6 cardiologists and 3 EP doctors and not one would look at anyone of the recording. I even printed the recordings out and they again would not look at those either. I was taken to the ** once and tried to show them and they told me that same thing that they are unreliable. I contacted them and tried to tell them and all they told me that it was my phone, well the doctors WOULD NOT EVEN LOOK AT ANY OF THE RECORDINGS IT HAD NOTHEN TO DO WITH MY PHONE. I went to all these other doctors because their unit tells me that I have heart problems. I just want to warn other people before purchasing things like this ask your doctors first. ************

    There is no customer service to contact only a phone number. With a phone number there is no record of having contacted them. Their service of sending the records to the doctor is very un reliable. Several times I send my A-Fib records to my doctor only to find out he never received it. I had to turn around and send it to myself and make a print. What good is it if you can't send it when it's important.

    I received the ************* EKG device from work as part as a wellness program. I followed the directions on setting up a profile only to realize that the purchase of the unit will not work without a yearly subscription.I have put the unit in my drawer to collect dust. I will be contacting the supplier and our company will no longer make this an option for our associates.

    Hi There, We are sorry to hear about your experience, but it seems that there may be a misunderstanding here. If you are a part of our employer wellness program KardiaComplete, you will need to make sure to download and use the KardiaComplete app, and not the normal Kardia app. You should not have to pay for this service as it is free if your employer is enrolled and you are an eligible member. If the correct app is downloaded, you will be able to connect without being charged for a subscription as you are in the consumer Kardia app. Please reach out to our team for assistance at ********************************** or ************.

    BUYER BEWARE. After getting a wide QRS reading on the Kardia I made an appointment for a video consultation with their Cardiologist. I waited for the call which I did not receive and I was billed 6 times on my credit card for $69 each charge. I ended up being charged $414 for one $69 appointment which they did not keep. I am working on this with my bank. BE CAREFUL

    We have refunded the customer of all charges and are currently investigating this matter internally.

    Bought a Kardia 6L and had the rear sensor deteriorate and fail after 4 months. AliveCor refuses to replace the device and claims the readings are "accurate" even though it fails to even pick up a reading 1/2 the time due to the faulty sensor. There are no issues with the device when doing a single lead EKG to avoid this sensor. Extremely poor product support and I would not recommend this to anyone.
