CGM from Abbott has been a life-changing technology for me as a type 2 diabetic. I began using it with the Freestyle 2, and I experienced zero issues with that version. The instantaneous feedback and monitoring made so much difference in my blood sugar control. Fast forward to 3. The minute I began using it, sensor life became a disaster. I’ve had so many sensors replaced within the past year(6-7) along with the recall last fall. It is a rarity for the sensor to last the entire 15 days. I think it’s happened maybe twice. My insurance does not cover the prescription so this expense has become hard to support given the extremely low quality of this product.

Day one error message "sensor stopped working - replace" Day two second sensor fell off 3 hours. Total piece of crap

Teknisk suport ikke til stede

Awful - I’ve been type 2 diabetic and also pre-diabetic for years. My sensor failed / fell off after 3 days into the 15 day period - I called up and was then told it’s not covered for a replacement and I should t be wearing one if I’m back in pre-diabetic numbers. Basically told me to cancel the subscription. I’ll go and use another provider - how much are they losing by telling people this?

Abbott Freestyle Libre 2plus gekocht voor 65 euro, laat na 7 dagen los, vervangende sensor aangevraagd, waar ze mee pronken dat dat kan, helaas mail van klantenservice zonder verdere info dat je voor deze sensor moet bellen met klantenservice, na een verschrikkelijk keuze menu, 4x) te horen krijgen dat voor de plus geen vervangende sensor wordt gegeven, terwijl deze net zo duur is als de libre 2, gewoon in nederland door allerlei bedrijven verkocht wordt aan particuliere patienten etc, dan had je dat ook gewoon in de mail kunnen zetten en mensen niet onnodig 15 minuten van hun tijd etc afnemen en gefrustreerd op laten hangen, wat een slechte service en totaal geen enkel begrip of inleveingsvermogen, toch maar op zoek naar ander merk sensor

Terrible Device! These sensors constantly fail/error message and required to be replaced. It’s often inaccurate. The most recent case was tonight, the app was reading super low, below 40, compared to my BG meter reading in the 300s.

Avoid!! I would give this product a 0 if possible. Sensors are often faulty. Had to replace one after 5 days for my son and then the replacement only lasted 4 hours! They would not refund, so I've spent $105 dollars for 5 days of monitoring. They would not issue a replacement without a medical practitioners letter as we are using it off label for pre diabetes assessment. They do not care that they sent 2 faulty products.

they are rude and very disrespectful, I requested because my sensor fell off, they had a nerve to say to me, I need to talk with my Doctor smh , I been a diabetic since 2001 and that's why my Doctor had me on this smh.
