It has 'serial number' on the form. I'd assume that you need to put in the serial number of the old meter....providing you had one,

You never know. Meters are given away like crazy, they make more money on the strips. I do love my OneTouch Ultra though.

My OH gets his test strips on prescription from his doctor and as he's insulin dependant he has a medical exemption certificate so doesn't have to pay.

Too right, Roche sent me my last meter free when I called them just for a set of free replacement batteries for my old free one. I also got a free infra red device and software so I can load up all the results on to my PC (they didn't provide me with a free PC though unfortunately!). Great in one way but scandalous in another I guess - can't complain though, nice people
