I have had my service for barely 3 months and have nothing but ISSUES!! when I call to try to get my problem solved. No one returns my call, they set fake appointments that nobody shows up for and they lie about everything. Take your business elsewhere!! This is horrible!! read more

I would put zero stars if I could, I worked for him eight days, and he refuses to pay me, despite paying other workers that were for less than 30 days via Venmo and cash. To my knowledge, despite Jose saying that the 30 days would be paid, another one of the coworkers that was hired on alongside me was still refused for the first 1-2 weeks. All of the staff is overly stressed out and can't manage anything, all he cares about is making money to the point of scamming his customers and his workers, he only cares about his customers when it comes to losing money. he is constantly arguing and getting into yelling matches with one of the other supervisors, and while I worked there, I could just constantly hear them on the phone yelling at each other, and him being extremely rude to her. He is not a good person, not to mention very condescending and rude, even poked fun at the fact that I have a preferred name by asking another worker if they have any "special names", and chuckled it off. He does not hire to keep anyone unless you were related to someone in the office. Anyone who is an outsider will not get paid (unless you push the issue) and will be let go before the 30 days are over or right as the 30 days ends. He told me the 30 days would be paid, let me go after eight, and then proceeded to pay two other workers, one of them not lasting the 30 days either, yet refuses to pay me. funny thing is, he had to have another worker fire me on his behalf because for whatever reason he couldn't do it himself, and same thing with another gal too that was let go before 30 days were over. it's insane that he has the audacity to hire, screw over these workers, and can't even have the decency to fire them himself. he said that it wouldn't make sense to pay me after only eight days because why would he pay me if he's not gonna keep me. there is so much more bullshit I could say on this company, but I'm gonna keep it sweet and short. He's a scam artist, doesnt pay his workers, and tries to squeeze every penny he can out of customers while calling himself CEO. Pathetic company. if you were looking for security, go elsewhere, unless you want to be scammed. If you're looking for a job, go elsewhere unless you like being exploited. read more

See all

ADT is the worst! Don't do business with them! I canceled a 10 year contract back in June. No matter what I do I cannot get them to stop charging! I despise ADT!!! Do yourself a huge favor and avoid these crooks at all costs! read more

Super pushy and felt sketchy. Did not go through with services. Went directly to ADT.

Jose Magana scamed me. He told me he would help me transfer my service to my new place and instead he opened a 2nd account, changed my password and mother's maiden name so when the alarm went off I did not know which house I was being notified. I called the monitoring service, and they couldn't provide info because I didn't have the code word or mothers maiden name. The 800# said I had to call Direct Protection Security directly to resolve this. I tried, but Jose and his office staff Yesnenia stopped answering my call, and Jose just sent me a text saying he had canceled my accounts. When I called ADT corporate again, they said accounts are both still open. I have reported him to the BBB and put in a complaint with local law enforcement. He is a scammer. Don't do business with Jose Magana from Merced ! Installation was as good as their customer service! Piece of crap! read more

Adt Security - Shitty install just like their customer service. The hole they drilled in my wall. - Security Systems Near Me

Sold under false pretense that my bill would lower after 2 year contract is over and equipment is paid off. 2 years later and equipment paid off, I'm told that my bill would stay the same and that it is now the correct service charge. read more

This office located in Merced is a scammer. Very Unprofessional. STAY AWAY. Jose owner and his team are nothing but liers. They did this to someone in my neighborhood as well. Don't trust this dealer please. They don't care for customers. They open accounts, take money and that's it. read more

ADT is awful and does not provide good customer service. They don't provide any immediate solution and blame the dealer for the malfunction.

Jose the manager said he will upgrade my business adt service but it instead opened a residential account and now I am being billed twice. He is a scam and not honest. He is shady and open account without your authorization. I am currently fighting with ADT to get reimbursed. read more

It doesn't deserve not one star!! WORST SERVICE AND LOW QUALITY EQUIPMENT!!! OWNER JOSE AND HIS WIFE THAT WORKS FOR HIM ARE SO UNPROFESSIONAL!! THEY JUST WANT TO TAKE YOUR MONEY!! The team of installers didn't do a good job installing anything and left holes in my wall and the door sensors fell out which would trigger the alarm system! I was out of town on the weekend and the damn sensor fell, which I didn't know and I got a call from them ADT customer support asking me if I want the police to come if I'm not home I told him absolutely. First thing they had the wrong address on the contract and I told them that was not my address Jose said he would change it which he never did. Then the cops come couldn't find nobody around my house so they left and I ended up with a $100 Merced city bill for false alarm.!! So I just rushed back home ruined my weekend plans just to find out that it was the damn sensor on the ground! SMH I was pissed. I called them to just come pick up the equipment which they charged me $300 to come pick it up and they left a mess with holes on the wall and metal staples on the ground. The worst thing is they were still charging my card monthly without even having equipment I would call customer service always getting the runaround saying I would get my money back which I never did. THEY ARE SCAMMERS!! DONT GET ADT!! 100% UNPROFESSIONAL AND POOR EQUIPMENT QUALITY!! read more

Do not fall for the lies "sales person" JOSE Magaña says!!!! He showed up to our home promising a "30 day free trial" with free installation and termination. He did not state that the Alexa or Google hub would be extra charge. The technician during set up was inexperienced (he must have been new because Jose showed up unannounced to check on him). The technician brought the wrong color Yale lock and had to call another technician because he did not know how to set it up. He did not help set up our code and did not provide us with the master code for it. The set up required a second appointment in which a different technician came to install the cameras (should be noted that we were not informed it would require making holes). This technician dirtied our walls, made horrible holes on the walls, and did not clean up leaving obvious wires on the floors. Mind you, this is a new build home. The memory cards for the cameras were not provided. The cameras have limited storage which defeats the purpose of having a security system. We communicated our concerns to Jose and he promised a technician would be going over to fix the issues but did not follow through. Jose's priority is to sell to more clients than keep the current ones happy. Trying to cancel the service has been a nightmare. The phone operators do not know anything and often provide contradicting information. They tried charging us $250 cancellation fee + 1 month service despite JOSE assuring it would be a "30 no commitment and no cancellation fee". read more

Do not waste your time! The sales rep Derek is cocky and pushy, the installers are never on time nor do they carry the correct equipment for install. I gave them multiple opportunities to install the equipment and to use their service. They don't take responsibility for anything and they are so rude and pushy I ended up having to block the rep Derek from my phone and ended up filing a complaint with the corporate office. Do yourself a favor and get your service anywhere, but here. read more
