GBReally disappointed with these hearing… Really disappointed with these hearing aids, I was very strongly advised by the audiologist that I would vastly prefer private aids over NHS. What a mistake, the NHS ones are much preferable. A very expensive mistake. The Starkey aids also turn themselves off if I fall asleep, rubbish if you are waiting for the door bell to ring.

GBI got the livio 2400 hearing aids last… I got the livio 2400 hearing aids last october 2020. Have needed speaker replacement 4 times and the right one appears to be slowly dying again. After I get through the 3 year period I plan on getting a cheaper set as the new technology is becoming more prevelent in the market. The days of starkey and other price gouging companies are over - Thankfully! It's incredible how much I was charged for these pieces of garbage.

GBBest customer service ever!!!!!! I contacted starkey direct and didn't get a fast response to my query, so I contacted them again, to my astonishment one of the management team (Lesley) answered my email. This lady made me feel like her priority, she could not do enough to help me and went absolutely above and beyond!!!!! All my life I have worked in customer service and unfortunately most places are a let down or average at best..... Lesley has been absolutely fantastic throughout and a credit to the company she works for!!! UNBELIEVABLE

AUNeeds a lot of work Adequate is probably the best description as to the effectiveness of the Thrive app. It randomly can't find my hearing aids (despite them being next to the 'phone). Volume conrol sometimes only works on one ( but I can control both manually). Other ad hoc bizzare behaviour necessitating uninstalling the app, downloading again and re-setting. Usually works for a few weeks until something else goes wrong...then repeat process. App needs some serious work to bring it to an acceptable, functional level!

GBThey squeal a lot They squeal a lot. Just getting next to something, like inside a car or next to a kitchen cabinet set off the squealing. It is uncomfortable just to reach up to take them out because of the squealing caused by my hand. There needs to be a better filter to stop all the noise of knives and forks clanking on the plates, because all I hear at dinner is plates clanking, and my self chewing. I am effectively deaf at any dining situation.
