Common questions in Liverpool
Frequently asked questions
Does the pendant work across all of Merseyside?
Yes. The pendant uses 4G connectivity and GPS, providing reliable coverage across Liverpool, Wirral, St Helens, Knowsley, Bootle, Crosby, and Formby. It works anywhere with 4G signal, both indoors and outdoors.
How quickly can a pendant be delivered to Liverpool?
We offer £1.99 next-day delivery to all Merseyside postcodes including L, CH, WA, and PR areas. Orders placed before 2pm are dispatched the same day.
Is the pendant better than a wrist alarm for someone with arthritis?
Many users with arthritis prefer the pendant because there is nothing to strap on or take off. It simply hangs around the neck on a soft lanyard. The SOS button is large and requires minimal pressure — far easier than the small buttons on wrist-based devices.
Can the pendant be used alongside Liverpool council telecare?
Yes. Liverpool council's telecare pendants typically only work within the home. Our SOS Pendant provides mobile GPS protection outside the home — at the shops, in Sefton Park, visiting the Albert Dock, or travelling to St Helens. The two work well together.
What happens if my relative falls and cannot press the button?
The pendant has automatic fall detection built in. If the sensors detect a fall, an SOS alert with the wearer's GPS location is sent automatically to all nominated contacts — no button press required.
Is the pendant safe to wear in the shower?
Yes. The pendant is shower-safe and splash-proof. We encourage wearers to keep it on in the bathroom because that is where falls are most common. Remove it only for full submersion baths or swimming.
How many emergency contacts can be set up?
You can add multiple emergency contacts through the companion app. When the SOS is triggered, all contacts receive an alert simultaneously with the wearer's GPS location, so whoever is closest or available can respond.
Is there a contract or minimum term?
No. The subscription is monthly and rolling with no minimum commitment. Cancel at any time with no fees. The plan includes the SIM, 4G data, GPS tracking, fall detection, and full app access.
