[QUOTE="Bluey1, post: 1836941, member: 36344"] It depends on the country. In Australia, I had almost a 40% fail rate (over 11 sensors). They wanted to know all about the failures, but not once did I get a replacement sensor out of them (and they normally failed 4 days in, the records were shortest time to fail less than 1 day and the max time to failure 7 days the rest went the full distance of 14 days). I stopped reporting the failures as I was just giving them free data on a really bad product. I can thank them though as that started my journey onto a pump and different sort of CGM's. Although these are a little more expensive, if you count the failures, they are much cheaper than the Libre. I think in a few years when they all perfect the technology they will be great, I think they are just a little premature to market. [/QUOTE]
