It has been alright. I don‚Äôt have to much else to say. I always get someone to talk to whenever I call and I really do appreciate that. Being able to reach someone when ever I call is very important to me and not just leaving a message and hope someone returns your call. How do I know when I reach 40 characters.

Keith Gray Madison, AL

They provide exemplary products and services our cons we don't activate the alarm while we are home and that seams to be a problem. We receive acknowledgment reminding to set alarm, or if we open a door to go outside the house. Wonderful service but only needed when we set the alarm.

I like my security system, however, I'm very upset I have to have 2 different apps for one the door bell is a different brand it's ring and second I have to pay a totally different bill even tho it's 3 dollars for the ring to work. I have had rude people during the time they were installing. Don't want to forget they didn't tell me about the fact I had to pay ring after 30 days of get the whole system. I definitely will do my research next time and never go back to core home.

The person that called my phone and spoke to me about Core home security gave me his phone number and said to call him if i ever had an issue once the alarm system was installed, have not heard from him or able to reach him since. The man that came and installed the system stated that he would be back within a week to bring me some yard signage and contact information along with a document I could show to my insurance company for discounts, never heard from him again.

Anonymous Saint Louis, MO

I have had nothing but trouble with them since I started my service. My monitor pendant has not worked for over a month. I called them and told them that it wasn’t working and asked them to call but I haven’t heard from them. The company that monitors said they had a low battery signal from my pendant. I have replaced the battery but still nothing. I called and got a recorder so I left a message to the fact but haven’t heard from them. I said in the message that if they couldn’t fix the problem I would consider the contract voided. But they still bill me and I still have no working pendant. I would not recommend them for anything ever.

Torrence Garrett Missouri City, TX

This company is horrible. I would not recommend this company to anyone. The sales person I had was untruthful. Now I’m stuck in a 12 year equipment contract. I would have never knowingly signed up for this. That equipment is already outdated and I still have about 10 years left to pay on it. The salesperson told me this would be a 60 month term but that’s not true. Read the fine print. Then when I called her at the same number she used to get my business when I had concerns she told me not to call her on that number. She said that was her personal number and was told to call the number listed on their website. The company number is only answered by an answering service regarding what time of the day you call. You can never speak to a rep of the company. I called numerous times before I realized they are just using an answering service. That was the reason I called the useless salesperson.

Concerned Customer Houston, TX

I've had their service for less than a month and I do not like the customer service this company provides. When you call ththeir main number noone ever answers. I've never had a live person answer ever. I was never told that the alarm equipment that was provided is financed for 144 months. I was told my service is for 60 months. I would have never signed up for that. I can't get tech support later in the evening to assist with my doorbell and backyard camera. I haven't received a yard sign. I haven't received anything showing we have the fire alarm service so we can get an insurance discount. At this point I just want out of this contract asap!!!
