The current owner, Aaron, which was Mike's son in law, tends to take the authoritarian approach when "managing" the business. He is irrational and lacks knowledge of the business/industry entirely! I would recommend looking else where for work, as the owner lacks empathy and doesn't care to produce a positive working environment.

We have been paying monthly for All Safe at least 30 years. We were in London and got a call that…read morethe alarm was going off. No fire department, no police and no call from All Safe.I called All Safe and told them I had a housesitter with an infant and asked for their help. They told me the phone line was disconnected and the backup radio was outdated. We had no security at all. I begged for someone to turn the alarm off. They said they'd send someone tomorrow. I asked my husband to talk to Aaron, who said he was the owner, over the phone. Aaron slammed the phone down and hung up on my husband. We've switched to a competitor which is much better and half as expensive. BEWARE even if you're already an All Safe customer!

Probably the best experience I've had signing up for any utility/service. I came in having an idea…read moreof what I wanted, brought in my own modem and cellphone, and I walked out with broadband internet and cell service from Xfinity. Mr. Aziz was really helpful, and was great to talk to. He asked a few questions, I showed him the offer/mailing I received and he gave me options. There was no pressure to go to a higher plan than what I had researched. When I came home, I followed the directions that Mr. Aziz gave to me, and everything worked.

If I could give a negative star review, I would. When I first visited the store, the young man who…read morehelped me was very nice and seemed to know what he was doing. When I started having issues with download speed and high latency, I tried to deal with it online but was rebuffed because my order (dropping home phone service) was "pending." What transpired was hours of dealing with people who did not speak English or understand how to deal with problems. Finally, I got someone to close out the "pending" ticket, clearing the way for me to request a service call. I tried online, through non-English speakers, AI chatbots, and a series of what appeared to be chatter in India, but got disconnected and received no help. I returned to the store and was told that the problem was probably with my equipment (previously checked out by a Certified IT Specialist at my expense) and when I told the guy that was not the case and showed him the logs from Xfinity's own system (wildly fluctuating latency and speed, dropped connections, etc.), he simply waived me off and told me there was nothing he could do. He suggested I go home and use my remote to schedule a service call. Since I'd already tried that without success, I asked if there was any charge to cancel service. His response was even more disrespectful and he was joined by a group of apparent sales guys standing around looking at their phones, who started making mocking noises about me complaining. When I tried to get their names, they told me to leave the store, so I took a picture of the rudest one. He then tried to grab my phone and got very hostile. It is unfortunately true that Comcast/Xfinity has a monopoly to provide fiber internet in Carmel, but the company isn't helped by being associated with clowns like these guys. I'm now forced to choose between lousy Comcast service or switching to Starlink and further enriching Dr. Evil, with the likelihood that Starlink will be just as bad as Comcast.

I am remodeling my condo and plan to install a security alarm system. The First Alarm salesman was…read morewonderful and took time to be sure I understood what was to be done. Then he gave me the most ridiculous contract I have ever, ever seen. The font size is 6 point, 1/16 of an inch! Then as a Docusign, it becomes a little fuzzy and is even more illegible. First Alarm, having such little respect for their customers regarding their contract, sets up a huge red flag for me. This is the second time ever that I have posted a complaint on anyone, but this is absurd. Lynn

CORE Surveillance did a superb job installing the surveillance system for our house…read more Our next door neighbor recommended Mr. JIM very highly to us. At first my wife wanted me to talk to a few more companies so we could compare equipments and price. But after talking to Core Surveillance, I had good feelings about them. So we decided to go with them. It took a day to set up the system. The crew that did the work were very pleasant. They explained the details to us before the installation and also worked around the little changes we requested. Now this system is up and running -- very smooth. Camera images are excellent. John did a good job explaining to us how to use this system. Thanks to John and another gentleman whose name I missed (sorry). You all are superb. Thanks for the job well done.
