SPOT sucks....

Drove an hour. Bought a SPOT for my mom so she can ride her horse in the woods and get help if something goes wrong...
tried to make SPOT work. Took hours. Spot's website NEVER EVER EVEN ONCE managed to email out my "i'm okay" messages. or the "help" messages, or the "custom message"
Lots of customer service phonecalls and several hours later........  cancelled SPOT
Now we get to drive another hour in a snowstorm and return SPOT

DON'T EVER BOTHER BUYING ONE!!! I think a whistle works better
