I have written various updates on here and I do realise how amazing the advent of the CGM is to the average diabetic ( if indeed there is an average user). I have always tried to monitor and manage my Diabetes situation carefully and the CGM has been the best upgrade to my toolkit for managing...

If you use the returns form for your Sensor you will see the Abbots site now has a predefined option to advise where the sensor simply falls off the arm. Which says to me this is a common problem. Abbotts are clearly taking this on board but it really would be good to know what they are doing...

I Like the nickname for the Sensors - Please remember you can report and send the sensors back https://www.freestyle.abbott/uk-en/support/sensor-support-form.html?srsltid=AfmBOopJtqt4MQlYufR3EhbyHpjlpeGxgfkzbGFxPM4qoW6zVdtZw61Q

I hope you sent these failed back to Abbotts - Even though they say they have tested. I have found the production quality varies greatly, One of the most common issues being they just fall off the arm as the glue mix was poor. I'm not sure that Abbotts are learning from the issues as they simply...

In the couple of weeks I have had to replace two more Sensors through Abbots. They both last about 5 or 6 days and fell out. Since being on the libre 2 plus I have had far more drop out or simply stop working the I did on theprevious sensor. Good that more people have found this thread on...

Congratulations , what a great result

Would appear that we are seeing messages that we never saw with the previous sensor and the firmware in the sensor has been updated to the point where it is finding fault where the old sensor never had this level of checking then they were not perfect but at least carried on working. I did ask...

Well done for getting a written reply - I managed to have a chat with them but got no written response or update since our conversation.

Great info Bill, I will take a look later. Would like to confirm that the Libre 2 Plus is manufactured in the New Ireland facility. Not sure about the stats though , this would depend on accurate reporting !!

Thanks for posting to this thread , I have told my Medical Practice there is a serious issue and will also send notice to the MHRA too. I do agree with you . for the amount these companies must be taking from the NHS they really should do better as service provider and in my opion the product...

Hi Dan, Welcome to the Forum, This is where the Forum is great tool to help share information. Let's hope they find the issue. I'm sending back 3 sensors this week. Two provided by Abbotts as replacements for other sensors with issues and the other from Boots chemist. This issue appears to be...

Thanks Rosie, Hopefully Abbotts can figure out why many people are getting serious issues and other people not. Hopefully will stay this way for you.

I have spoken with Abbotts today and made them very aware of the momentum and number of posts on this and other threads about the realiability of the New Libre2 Plus. I have asked Abbotts to refer to this Forum and to consider stopping the issue of the Libre 2 Plus product and only issue the...

Like you I am a great advocate of the Abbotts product and found the Libre 2 quite releiable so I am shocked with the failure rate I am experiencing. I am having to send Abbots 3 sensors back this week 2 of which were replacements that had sent me for previous failures. I have been experiencing a...

Hello , What has Abbotts told you ? Given that probably most Diabetics do not use this Forum I am guessing there are a lot more sensor failures than reported here. Personally I have had a 50%+ failure rate since going from Libre 2 to Libre 2 plus. I have also changed my phone to a more up to...

Hi, If you look at more recent posts on this thread, I am considering contacting the MHRA but sad to hear that their response to you was disappointing. Do you have a case number with them and is it worth letting them know about the people on here and the increased number of reportings of issues...

Hi , Sorry to hear you have had an even worse time with the Libre2 Plus , so bad that you want to go back to the finger prick device. Please see my post on here where I suggest we might like to raise this as a Yellow card event with the MHRA. ! I hope this issue will be recognised by the Abbotts...

This is an interesting Post , I have read the responses and they seem to align with my findings over the last few months. End of last week I put a New sensor in and it went through the 60 minutes countdown , when I tried to scan it gave a sensor error message and scan again in 10 minutes. I...

Hi , thanks for your response on this , they sent me a Reader too and I find it very easy to use , a lot easier to use than the app especially on my Motorola Pro 50 where I have to keep reloading the app to get a reading. Also the reading sometimes takes an age - can be very slooow. Personally...

Eventually changed my Phone from Motorola G5s to Motorola Edge 50 Pro and the Freestyle App is working well except I have switched to using the Freestyle Meter as my Primary tool for keeping my eye on the CGM Sensor readings, so much easier than having to keep unlocking phone etc.
