One thing...i have been on g6 a year now, and twice within that time there have been delays with my 3 month shipment as the hospital team have not done what they need to do to authorise continuation. This should just be once a year on your dexcom 'birthday" but in my case it seems the hospital failed to do something that effected all dexcom orders before i had used up the year.
I now keep any eye on my orders website when the next 3 month is due, as dexcom puts a note on to say they are awaiting info, and a stock of libres in as a fall back. luckily my gps have left them on my px list.
First time it happened i was rather panicing.
I didn't think this is a general problem but worth keeping an eye on the dexcom orders website when a order is due.
The delivery firm dexcom use sent emails when order due and you have the option of chosing a collection point...can't fault dexcom, actually.
Also, if your phone is not compatible you can use the 'build your own dexcom app' available via reddit...i've been using it for a year with no issue but get a back up reciever to be on the safe side
