Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have had a great few months with Tincy and her team. They have been super flexible whilst we found our feet and figured out what we actually needed. The care we have had has been exceptional and has had a huge impact on my mum and us as a family. We are really grateful for the compassion and service
we have had to date and plan to use Tincy and her team for as long as we need them.

All the carers were lovely people treating me with compassion and understanding. They were on time and had smashing senses of humour. I needed the services of the company urgently as I had been let down, and the carers started quickly to fill the gap. It was a pleasure to welcome them into my home.

All staff have been wonderful, very polite and kind to my mum and myself. They are always very cheerful and this makes my mum feel good. They go above and beyond for her and I think the care is brilliant. They are very respectful and retain my mum's dignity when caring for her. Any concerns don't hesitate
to contact me to ensure if there is anything else that can be done. Management are brilliant also, they have sorted out any concern right away and are very easy to talk to and get along with. Fantastic company!

We have never been in the position before of needing carers to look after Mom so it was all a bit daunting and not sure what to expect.
The manager was amazing and put our minds at rest straight away.
The girls looking after Mom have been amazing. Time is impeccable, they are so kind too. Nothing
is too much trouble. I really wouldn’t hesitate to recommending homecare.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.809)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.809) out of 10 for Firstcall 247 Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Home Care Provider is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.809 for Firstcall 247 Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (125 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 152 Ratings = 4.809
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows: 3 points for the first Positive Review, 2 points in total for each of the next 9 Positive Reviews (1st = 3, 2nd = 0.5, 3rd = 0.5, 4th = 0.25, 5th = 0.25, 6th = 0.1, 7th = 0.1, 8th = 0.1, 9th = 0.1, 10th = 0.1)

    The 5 points relating to the number of Positive Reviews for Firstcall 247 Ltd is based on 26 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as follows: 3 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.25 + 0.25 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 5
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Home Care Provider does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
