You must select an option from the drop-down menu to get the correct price.*Please note that if you select "Yes I have diabetes" then you MUST provide us with your home address. This is because you are making a legal declaration which we will supply to HMRC so they need your home address details.

Not accurate and not fit for purpose.
The strips and meter are not accurate or fit for purpose. I’ve tried to return the strips but keep getting fobbed off with general replies.First message, which meter are you using. The information was given when I asked for my money back.Second message was, are you following the instructions with all the steps given in the message. I’ve been diabetic for more than 15 years and the information given was in the first reply to SME Diagnostics message.Distant selling laws give 14 days to return the product for a full refund. Amazon market place is a pain in the arse with some sellers using every tactic to stop you returning produces that you don’t want or are not fit for purpose.Update, I returned strips and meter via Amazon’s complaint process but still SME diagnostics refuse to pay back £3.70 postage. Some BS about they need to check the meter and strips for faults. This product could kill someone with diabetes and I believe the product should be taken off the market.

Be Aware, These Can Give Inaccurate Results
These may be cheap test strips - but there's a downside. I've found that they routinely show me higher blood sugar test results than any of my other 3 blood glucose meters - including my one touch (the gold standard of blood sugar meters). This means I end up overshooting my insulin and have gone into some very dangerous and health-damaging low blood sugar episodes. (I put in more insulin that I needed - based on the falsely high results based on these test strips). If you're a diabetic, take care of your health - because these companies sure won't. If you're going to use these test strips, try comparing them against several other meters before you trust them.

I am very satisfied with how SME Diagnostics dealt with my purchase
I recently bought a new Blood Sugar Monitor to replace my previous one. I purchased a GlucoNavil meter, thinking that it would arrive with mmol readings (UK) rather than USA readings. It was not possible to determine whether the monitor used US or USA readings when it arrived without opening the package - which I did. After a series of communications with SME Diagnostics I received full refund and a complementary meter which used UK readings. I am very happy with their service once clarity over the dilemma I faced was made. I will continue to purchase from this company.

Good experience
I’ve just started to monitor my blood glucose levels and purchased the GlucoNavii monitor and test strips after seeing a recommendation on a diabetic forum - I am very satisfied with the items I purchased and these test strips are excellent value compared to some of the others I have seen - they are also accurate. The service from this seller was excellent - my items arrived before the promised delivery date, were securely packaged and as described - I can honestly recommend the items and the seller

Easy to use strips
You have to place enough blood on the strip in a particular spot otherwise it will not read it. I needed to squeeze quite a bit if blood on the strip before it would go into the microchip then into the meter to read the blood glucose level.

Cannot guage accuracy, hence the middle of the road score
Learning a bit more about meters, it is hard to gauge the accuracy compared to other meters as there is too much +/- drift between them, so I cannot say this is accurate, nor can I say its inaccurate. I will say its consistent in its recordings. On ease of use and value for money, I would say spot on.

Watch postage dates...
Good price. All strips I've used so far have given readings I was expecting, no 'odd' numbers coming up that lead me to retest for an accurate result. Don't need alot of blood. I have noticed that if you pay the higher 'no I don't have diabetes' price they are delivered faster (next day) than if you pay the lower 'yes I have diabetes' price. This doesn't seem right! They are saving money on the shipping service rather than giving diabetic customers the same service at the reducted price they get for medical reasons.
