      This business needs to be investigated as well as the hospitals who bring in sales people scaring the most vulnerable people that just had a heart attack. This vest is unbearable to wear. Had for just a week and sent back. Have *** receipt stating the date of return. They charged ******** $4720.00 and they paid $2625.61 and now charging me $669.80. Services are for Nov. 24 2023 and return was Dec 4th, 2023.

      Did not work properly and repeatedly tried to shock husband without cause. Also we returned unit and they couldn't locate the return so they are billing for more months than he used the unit. PLEASE ask your doctor to prescribe a different device. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!

      This is a rip off! We returned product in a week and they billed us $300! They say they bill for how long you HAVE it not how long you USE it!! I will NOT be paying anything!The concept is good but the product is flimsy and constantly gives an alarm signal, such as device is not fastened when it actually is! It was a freaking nightmare!!

      I agree with all the other comments below. I am in the hospital about to be released and a sales person comes in and scares you when you are in a vulnerable state in your bed. I am refusing to pay the bill. They have received 80% via mi insurance so that is it. Of course, they are not BBB approved!

      They convinced me that I needed this vest and ******** covers the cost....the **** thang shocked the h*** out of me with no warning,leaving ***** on my chest and resulted in me going to the hospital.The company admitted that it was a unnecessary inappropriate accidental charge....but sent me a bill for over $600 which they later cancelled after my complaint. User Beware...this device can seriously hurt you...zero stars

      I had a heart attack on January 2, ****. Medical intervention was angioplasty and stent. Doctor would not release me unless I agreed to sign up for the vest and related two scary stories about patients who died because they weren't wearing the vest. The days and nights I wore the vest were uncomfortable and stressful. I will be calling the company that I wish to return it and also the insurance company. I left a one star because I couldn't submit my story without it.

      I was hospitalized with congestive heart failure. Was recommended the and discharged with a **************. I wore the Life Vest until June 2022. Returned the **** with a phone call with date for *** pickup last week of June 2022. Received a bill for July, August and September 2022. The bill came to me over a year latter, August 2023. **** even tried to bill my insurance company in August 2023, after I informed ************** was returned end of June 2022. **** keeps sending me a bill every month since August 2023. By the way, my insurance company paid for the months I had the Life Vest. I believe my doctor's ****** or hospital phoned Zoll for the Life Vest return. That is how Zoll called me . I used the prepaid return label supplied with the Life **** box.Get a *** receipt and hold on to it for EVER.. I hope the hospital and/or doctor FINDS a different *******************

      My 83 yr old father who was hospitalized for CHF was recommended by the hospitalist to be discharged with one of these Zoll LifeVests. The staff at the hospital AS WELL as THEIR customer service rep that worked with us on the LifeVest said insurance would cover it in full. My father used it for about a week and had the most stressful week ever bc of the difficulty in using it, in his state. It was the worst thing to add to his new routine after being hospitalized. He got admitted again and since has not used the vest. Drs couldve cared less to even ask about it. Again, he used it for about a week and then we returned it immediately. His cardiologist advised he did not even need it. Now were being hit with a $560 bill when we were told by their own employee that it would be covered. How is this happening?!?!?! I spoke to someone on the phone at lifevest and he was absolutely useless. This is such a SCAM and Im ready to take this higher if someone does not get back to me saying that insurance is covering 100%. Online, on your own website, it says many insurance companies cover LifeVest. The rep I spoke to on the phone yesterday never even mentioned that. Never asked what insurance my dad has (he has 2). Im blown away that this SCAM of a company is getting away with this. Youre dealing with elderly or very sick patients and expect them to read the fine print when we are trusting that your employees are telling us certain information. The very FIRST thing my parents asked was if insurance covered the vest. This is absolutely insane the additional amount of stress u are causing my parents who have already been through so much. And I cant even begin to think of how many other elderly you are taking advantage of.You MUST find the rep who showed us the vest in ********************* ******* hospital. She needs to be held accountable AND you need to educate the hospital better. We need answers.

      This company is robbing patients with dr everything in USA is a scam from dr to hospitals and especially this company. I will not pay them a penny for the robbery they do. They apparently care about patients health and heart then they start sending you those crazy bills for renting a vest. They change my insurance over 2k now they want $600 from me. NOTHING BUT ROBBERY. I hope one day we can have some normal person in charge to fix the health system robbery.
