Robert Alfano Stephenson, VA

Yes, their system does a good job of alerting the local police in the event of a break-in. That's where my satisfaction ends with them. This company will nickel & dime you from the day you sign up. I had them put a wireless security system in my home two years ago and I've been sorry ever since. You NEED to sign a 5 yr deal. Okay, but now I feel like a hostage until it expires. I signed up for what I thought was going to be a killer system that I could continue to grow, but Guardian is WAY TOO GREEDY for that. I discovered that my second week as a customer. When they originally set the system up, it immediately alerted them when someone set off the motion sensors. This happened frequently every morning in the beginning as we were new customers and were forgetting to disarm the system before we left the bedroom. So, the phone would ring asking if everything was okay. etc. I wanted to get that adjusted to give us like 45 seconds to disarm the system before they called us. No problem, after a 25.00 charge to reprogram the system remotely. WHAT??? REALLY??? i quickly learned that what you pay for each month is JUST the monitoring service. If you need ANYTHING else with regards to the system, you will pay!! I am a Smart Home geek and I originally envisioned this system to be an extension of my smart home system. They put in a really awesome, state of the art smart home security panel which would function in conjunction with my smart things hub. In fact, I was blinded by how cool this panel was, and was the main reason I chose them over ADT. However, they will not give me ANY access to that panel so that I can tie it into my home systems and take advantage of its capabilities. All I can do is arm and disarm it. Instead, I was told is that they would program it for me. Okay great, however, when you hear the prices that they quote for a remote configuration, it just wouldn't make any sense. Anyone who has set up a smart home will tell you that it is rarely static. There are always things you see and would like to try. add, change, but Guardian's fees for each and every change makes that cost prohibitive. So, I have this awesome panel that I could do a lot of cool things with, but the system sits and monitors my home like alarm systems have done for the last 25 years. Oh, and better yet, the wireless sensors keep dying and going off line. In two years, I've had multiple issues where they stop working. If you let Guardian visit your house there's a healthy service charge associated. So, what have I decided to do? I've now have a new strategy when the Guardian sensors malfunction and I can't figure out why, I eliminate them. I replaced them with non-Guardian sensors and monitor them myself with my Smart Home system. Basically, as the system slowly breaks, there are less Guardian sensors and more that I monitor. When it reaches a certain percentage, I will get monitoring from one of the new security companies like SimpliSafe for those. Then, when the Guardian contract is over, I'll be free & clear of my 5 years of being a hostage. I'm about halfway through my hostage crisis. Guardian Protection is a money suck! Do yourselves a favor and use one of the newer companies like SimpliSafe for your security needs. They understand that it's 2019, not 1979! Guardian is still conducting business like its still 1980, much like the Cable TV Companies. They need to reinvent themselves or they will eventually die out like what has happened to the taxi cab industry in the wake of Uber. This is almost 2020, time to change your business model or face extinction! Lastly, I want to say that I have NO experience with SimpliSafe other than what I've read about them. I only use their name as a reference point for all the new security services that are sprouting. Do you research before you pick a company. I will when it's time, but Guardian, unless they change their business model, is yesterday's news.

I thing guardian is doing a good job monitoring my r'sidence. However, I am abiT disappointed when my monthly rate went up from $29.99 a month to over $32.00 a month. I am disappointed because when I first sign up with guardian, the representative told me that the $29.99 would never go up. The increase in price came as a surprise to me.

Hi Jean,

Thank you for providing valuable feedback on your customer experience. It is true that your rate will not increase for the term of your agreement; however outside of the initial term there may be a slight price increase and we try to keep that as minimal as possible as the price of providing award-winning 100% U.S. based security monitoring rises. We would be happy to lock you into a rate if you are interested just give us a call at 1-800-PROTECT. Thank you for your continued business!

Hopeful

Prior to recent few months my experience with Guardian Protection was great! However, due to a recent urgent need to upgrade services from simply indoor security system monitoring only to also include their currently offered outdoor cameras'. Sadly, this recent experience has been a nightmare and has caused the once high opinion about Guardian's quality of services & equipment to shift into an opposite direction. Presently, however, Guardian has requested & promised to make an attempt at correcting the past concerns/issues at hand. Hopefully, at this juncture, everything will be resolved and feeling safe/secure at home will not seem like only wishful thinking that forces a fourteen year business relationship to end.

Original installation was not good. Installers complained about the work and then did not install all equipment requested. They left packaging behind and plugged in a device without explaining what it was. After complaining about doorbell had never worked and the camera has never worked well they sent a technician who charged me 105 to fix a doorbell that still doesn’t work. When I asked to have them removed I because this is the antithesis of security was informed that I would have to speak with the loyalty department about my contract. The loyalty department informed me they could take the charge off but I own the defunct equipment and they would not remove it. What in the world? You have e to pay for equipment that doesn’t work or provide you security and then pay for it to be fixed more than once well over the cost of it being replaced. This is not the consumer experience I expected when I signed up.
