SHOPPERS PLEASE READ ALL OF THIS REVIEW BEORE MAKING YOUR DECISION. Again our system is not working…read moreand again we have to wait for another week. Since we noticed that our battery in our panel is low and trouble shooting it on the phone with a tech support for over a half hour and 4 emails within a 10 minute time frame saying that the control panel battery is running on 3% on my 9 yr. wedding anniversary she tells me she is sorry but we have to wait for the tech to come out because she has tried everything. The next day I call to try to get our appointment moved up and one tech guy tells me have you tried this and that and when I tell him we tried everything he tells me the tech support that I spoke with last night has no notes in the system. Since last night when I had 4 emails I now wake up to 25 emails saying the same thing and at 8:15 this morning Vivint calling us to tell us something we already know. So I call to ask to have our service discontinued and was told I had to speak to their Customer Loyalty Dept. I speak with their Customer Loyalty Dept. for him to tell me that I cant get out of our contract and he has given us way to much money in credits that he cant do anything for us now even thou now our control panel is not showing us that the door is locked and when windows or doors are open. He tells me that the tech will change out the control panel when he comes in a week. I told him they have already changed out the panel 2 other times. Guess what. Again there are no notes in the system showing that and when the techs come to your house they don't give you any paperwork to show what they did. So you look like the liar when you tell them that the panel has been changed 2 other times. So here we are how many more emails will we get saying that the battery is low or when it gets to 0 and completely stops our house AGAIN goes unmonitored. They answer the phone where we protect your home and family. How do they do this? I tell the Customer Care Loyalty Rep I want out of our contract due to them not giving us the services we are paying for. He tells me because they are willing to replace the panel because there is no record of it being replaced even thou again I tell him to contact these employees who have replaced it he tells me I cant get out of the contract but its fine for them not to protect our house and may family. Keep in mind I have 3 grandkids that live with us and that was the whole reason we went this security system. One more thing. The numbers they have listed on the internet for their Corporate number is all lies they all go to their Customer Service. You cant get a hold of their Corporate Office.

I had occasion to call Buffalo Alarm last week due to a fast beeping sound coming from the key pad…read more I didn't realize at the time that it was due to a low battery. By chance I found Buffalo Alarm on the internet and gave them a call. I really was expecting to be told that I would have to sign up for a year contract for monitoring, which is what happened awhile ago with a another alarm co. When a called Buffalo Alarm and cheerful young lady answered and immediately transferred me to Jim, service manager. He set up an appt. and advised the service fee. Very reasonable. The tech arrived at the appointed time. He replaced the battery quickly and checked all the other batteries. He didn't try to upsell and I'm grateful for that. If I ever want to upgrade our system, Buffalo Alarm is the only company I would use.

Stereo advantage sent me a damaged unit as being "reparied'…read more I had sent my unit(Surface Pro 3) to Square Trade for a ADH repair of a cracked screen. The unit came back with Stereo Advantage as the sender. They must of been contracted by Square Trade to repairmy unit. However when I got the unit back despite the box and the packing material in tack. the screen had a 1" long hole in he screen on the side opposite fo the original damage. I am left to conclude that damage was present before the surface 3 was packed. Not only that, they installed Windows 8.1 instead of Widnows 10 which is what was installed when I purchased it. I am glad that I live far away from Buffalo NY and will not have any reason to deal with this company again.

The guy that sells/installs the car stereos is a JOKE. that guy has been dicking me around for over 3 weeks. Saying stuff like, my harness isnt in yet, then not returning my phone calls days later. Then when i finally stopped in, they magically have the part but it wasnt logged in the system. then when we set up an apointment to have it installed, and i show up at that time, he tells me he marked me for earlier and cant fit me in today.! load of BS. I cancelled my 300$ order. F that store. DO NOT GO THERE. you'd be better off at best buy.
