FREESTYLE LIBRE ON SALE!!!!

Libre just arrived, shipped from France in less than 48 hours from initial order.

Good work Abbot!

All set up and sensor in, going to give it 24 hours before I activate... If I can hold out that long haha.
 
So my really accurate sensor has just given up on accuracy! 4 days to go and it has decided to bobble along at 2.4 overnight - I woke up twice and tested at 5.2 and 4.5 - and since earlier this morning it's now just reading LO.

Just spoken to Abbott and they're sending a replacement.

Hi mate, did you get it from France or am I misunderstanding? Was it yourself who mentioned using a VPN before? Because I was just wondering if you could order it from somewhere cheaper and get it sent to you in the UK? Might need a bit of 'finagling' but could maybe work?
 
Hi. No I was on the waiting list for one and received a link to purchase on Monday.

Delivery note shows they are being shipped directly from France.

Hi smidge - they are both Reader: 2.1.2 Version: 0.94

Edit: the new reader is a bit rattly if I shake it. I wan't to keep the old one now I've cleared the fluff but Abbott say I have to return it now the replacement process is underway
 
Mine is out for delivery today! I'm flying tomorrow - has anyone had any problems with airport security etc.?

Obviously won't have a letter/prescription for this like I do for my insulin/needles etc.

Thanks

I've been to Spain and back with no problems. They even missed it during a pat-down (I usually set the scanners off - I think it's fly-button jeans).
