It's £101.52 per month. That covers two sensors and postage. That is the running cost, starter pack is only required once
Am I right in saying that the monthly cost for this would be two sensors, i.e. £115 per month? The only one-off cost is the start-up pack?
The postage for 2 sensors seems over the top as is the packaging!It's £101.52 per month. That covers two sensors and postage. That is the running cost, starter pack is only required once

I've returned one today, the sensor is slim with no sharp attached so the sealed plastic bag and Jiffy bag seem quite adequate to me. It's marked Complaints I think so should be easily identifiable to Libre staff as to what it is. Would imagine they'll be getting a few by now!Has anyone returned a faulty used sensor to Abbotts yet? I have to return one. They have sent a biohazard bag and a padded envelope with a post-paid label. The instructions say to put in the two biohazard bags and the pre-paid box provided. There is no instruction on cleaning the sensor and nothing provided to do so. I don't think the bag and envelope provided is suitable for transporting a used device with dried blood and a needle (the flexible filament) through the post. I could use the box the new sensor came in to protect post workers I guess, but am still worried about whoever opens it in Abbotts. What has everyone else done about returning them? In the past when i've had to return a used BG meter to Roche, they have sent very specific instructions to remove all sharps and have included antibacterial cloths to clean the device.

Re courier,deliveryI'm often out and don't want to go through the calling the courier back, re arranging the delivery scenario each time. Would rather collect from local Post Office delivery office.
The courier is DPD in the UK. You can track the delivery - it'll show you a day and timeslot so you can arrange to be in or if not you can rearrange the delivery day or ask for the package to be left somewhere - so it's not too bad.Re courier,delivery I'm often out and don't want to go through the calling the courier back, re arranging the delivery scenario each time.

Awesome, that's affordable for me! So where do you order them from? Their website say's they're £57.95 each.It's £101.52 per month. That covers two sensors and postage. That is the running cost, starter pack is only required once

Perfect, thanks! I'll be ordering one on payday. Excited!Yes that's right, but you then select a check box that you confirm that you have diabetes and are eligible for VAT exemption
