“I’ve only had to pick up my equipment so far. But my experience was good. The technician was very informative and thorough with all aspects of the equipment. She explained everything I needed to know, and made sure I didn’t have any questions before leaving.”

“Just a horrible company for cpap. Wish I went somewhere else. Customer service is like a black hole. Everytime I call I get different answers to my questions. Plus I think they purposely hire people who speak bad English. I can't say enough how bad this company is. Anyone who reads my review before choosing a cpap supplier and you still chooses Lincare, your on your own. Lastly with all the bad reviews that go back years and Lincare has not changed their customer service should be big eye opener for potential new customers.”

“This company is unequivocally fraudulent. Despite my insurance company fully covering the cost of the supplies, Lencare proceeded to charge my credit card. Upon contacting them, they acknowledged their error and assured me of a refund, yet it remains elusive. Despite countless attempts to rectify the situation, their promises ring hollow. This is a clear case of deceit; steer clear of Lencare.”

“Poor customer service! It's Saturday, oxygen concentrator has problems. No one answers their emergency number or their "chat" on their site. Need to plan your emergencies on week days during business hours. Pitiful company.mm”

“My mom was using this service. We called 6 weeks ago as she needed service. After multiple attempts they did not come out. She was forced to stay in her bedroom, close to the main machine instead of being able to be in the living room. This was not important to them. It's really sad that they do not take elderly people's needs seriously and urgently. Unfortunately my mom passed and this company was notified of her death 3 weeks ago! Equipment still hasn't been picked up. Well it will be on the porch. You don't care, neither do we. Hoping for others that can't breathe that they find a more reputable company!”

“Lincare reached out to me to check my equipment for valid adjustments and mentioned that the filter should be replaced. I had to cancel our appointment because of a conflict and the staff member that took my call was so gracious and assured me that it was fine and that we could easily reschedule. We did. The young man that came to my house was very knowledgeable about the equipment and was very polite and friendly. His name is Lance and he as well as the staff member that took my call were great!”

“Lincare no longer bills customers. The rep. on the phone said she doesn't know what company bills for Lincare. Is billing rocket science? Can't get a bill thru email, text or USPS.”

“Just do not use them. My experience has been beyond belief at the incompetence with this company. They don’t know what they’re doing. I need CPAP, but they’ve made it impossible.”

“Customer service in Galax is terrible. Two days ago I had my Home concentrator exchanged because the yellow light was on and wouldn’t go off so they came out and gave me another one and didn’t test it just left it and took the other one. The new one was so noisy you couldn’t watch TV in the same room. I called LinCare yesterday And a lady named Trish said I doubt we can get out tomorrow. It probably be sometime next week. I woke up this morning with a headache and found out this machine isn’t even putting out oxygen levels were low when I woke up this morning at the time they’re supposed to open , call again an hour later they should be open. No one answers the phone and again I left the message. No one returns my call. I said I need this thing today on the recording anyway I finally drove down there and went in and they said the truck on their way to your house nobody even told me or called me so if he would’ve got there before I got back, no one would be there to answer the door , bunch of idiots! They need a new office manager there to straighten the place out. I’ve had several mistakes there.”

“I have had a myriad of problems since day one with this company! My doctor sent me to Lincare in Piqua. Ohio back in December of 2023. I had to go to a class showing how to use my equipment before they would let me have it. My bank deposited my paycheck check into our business checking account, so I didn’t have enough to pay the initial amount. The instructor came into the room & loudly announced that information to the whole class. Embarrassed, I handed her another card to process for that. Within 2 weeks, I received the paperwork from my insurance telling me what my portion was. It was $120 LESS than what Lincare charged me. I contacted them & was basically told that they bill whatever they want. In January, our insurance changed. I sent my new insurance information to them no less than 6 times. They didn’t change it, but continued to harass me. After the FINALLY changed it, the charges started appearing on my insurance account. They are charging my insurance for basically 2 separate machines. It’s ONE machine that includes a humidifier…it can’t be used unless the little cup is in machine because it’s ONE machine! Then, I see charge upon charge for supplies. I’ve received 2 masks that are the wrong size…they’ve charged for 3…and the cost for these products are marked up 200%! My co-pay is MORE than what it costs to buy from Amazon! They’ve sent other pieces once, but they’ve charged more than once. I’ve notified my insurance company about that. My insurance company has the option to pay my portion through them. I have been doing that. As of last week, I don’t owe these people anything, but they charged my card for $278.75 yesterday! They were only authorized to take the first amount out. They also didn’t even charge my insurance company that amount! It’s more than $100 more than they charged my insurance company! My insurance company said I owed $16 this month…and that was already paid. Their customer service is a joke! Rudest people in the world both on the phone AND in person! I have written BBB & the Attorney General’s office. They have already been sued for over-charging Medicare, why weren’t they investigated for overcharging those that have private insurance? Steer clear of this company!”

“Worst customer service and web site ever: cannot log into to patient portal after entering patient ID and DOB.....you are forced to call them; the hold times are extremely long and very little help provided. I would recommend you NOT ever deal with this company.”

“RUDE. Just the worst. I called 5 days after the death of my mother to arrange pickup of her oxygen supplies as she had quite a bit at home, it was painful to pass by, and I thought someone might need it. I called at 4:55 p.m. (they close at 5:00 p.m.). I told Jim Olson, who answered the phone, that my mother had passed and I needed to arrange for her SUPPLIES to be picked up. He had the nerve to tell me “make sure you are using the correct language so we know what we are picking up”. Excuse me, what? I will admit, I was immediately enraged but my mother has just died and you want to correct my use of language? I called him “graceless” and told him to schedule a pickup. He refused and said “I was apparently having a bad day”. What the actual heck is wrong with this man? I again insisted that he schedule the pickup, raised my voice, told him that yes, I was having a bad day SINCE MY MOTHER HAD JUST DIED, and to come get his equipment. He told me to call back tomorrow, hung up on me, and then turned the phone at the office off - at 4:57 p.m. I called back 3 more times and got the automated service. Nice. Really nice, Jim. Way to be compassionate towards your clients and their families. He had previously been rude to my terminally-ill mother while she was in crisis and her oxygen concentrator failed her - told her that in all his years, no one had ever had more than one break down. Real class act over there at Lincare Traverse City.”

“Unfortunately, my mom who lives in another state, passed away. There was numerous calls to have her oxygen equipment picked up when she was still alive and in the nursing home, with no success. Numerous times I was told this is not the correct location, tranferred to someone else, or told I would get a call back, which never actually happened. It was really ridiculous the hoops I had to jump through to return their equipment. I would give Lincare 1 star for their poor customer service and communication (no reply to my query is unacceptable.) However, the guy, Isiah, who actually picked up the equipment was great!! I would give him 5 stars for his excellent communication skills. As I am almost 5 hours away from the pick up location, he not only notified me of the time he would arrive, left a receipt for the items he picked up and also texted me a copy, just in case........ Just wanted to say, maybe Lincare should have Isiah give some of their customer service agents some pointers on how to deal with their customers and what good customer service actually is. Thank you Isiah for you compassion, promptness, and great communication skills. Lincare should employ more employees like you!!!”

“Terrible beyond terrible customer service. Not reliable at all. Nasty beyond nasty. Extremely slow about equipment pickup. Please make sure that they are not billing your insurance for Lincare equipment sitting in your house and it is not being used. Nasty, nasty and trifling customer service.”

“My delivery of oxygen fell on a Monday which was memorial day. Most holidays are on Mondays. The power went out the day before for 5 1/2 hours. This caused me to use more oxygen that I had expected. I called to put in an order on Friday hoping I could get one on Tuesday and was told I would have to wait until the following Monday. I had plans to go to a barbeque on Sunday and then leave for South Jersey on Friday. I would not be home on the next Monday. I was told I could drive 40 minutes each way and pick up my own oxygen if I wanted some. Even the garbage men pick up the following day day after a holiday. If I don't pick it up myself plans will be short and I guess I'll be stuck in my apartment instead of enjoying myself. If I do get it myself I am calling my insurance company and make sure they take off for the delivery and I should be reimbursed for my gas and time for picking up what should be delivered to me. I also want my delivery day changed to another day besides Mondays.”
