I have had break security system for over 20 years. I have recently added cameras onto my plan. I have found this company to be very responsive and their customer service team to be very professional and very kind.

I renewed my contract just to bring down the cost. I had a difficult time with one camra. They asked me to take down the camra, but being on disability I couldn't climb up to do it. When I renewed they came out & fixed it. It wasn't working for 8+ months.

Brinks is a very good company and has a lot of quality safe products for your home. However, they are a bit pricey which ultimately lead me to leaving and switching to a different company.

Bruce is a home security system that monitors your house when you're not there if anyone breaks in they'll call your phone and ask you if you're okay. Not too bad makes you feel secure

Katie Marshall New York, NY

Bring a, home security, my family has for many years, I can remember the sign in front yards and windows of the home I visited. So when I purchased my home I inquired Brinks, and did research read so reviews talk to people was use different security systems, Brinks was Top highest price. For a first time homebuyer, just not affordable for me. There are other companies just as good less costly.

We signed a five-year contract with brink security at 75.99 a month and then when it came up for review the price almost doubled so we canceled our contract. However they do provide excellent service. They're just not reasonably priced.

Jonathan Heng Los Angeles, CA

They charge a lot for their systems with more basic monitoring. When you try to cancel or switch service, they make it nearly impossible to get anything done. They don’t answer their phone or get back to you when you’re trying to contact them about cancelling. They just want your money. I cancelled my service two years ago, then suddenly they decided to start charging me through direct bank transfer again without my consent. After calling my bank to tell them not to allow charges from them because I don’t have an account anymore, they started sending me letters threatening to cancel my service even though I haven’t had service with them for two years. Shady company for a security company.
