    I was employed by Crimson Security Services Inc. for six months. I have worked in security…read morepositions ranging from bouncer to supervisor for eleven years now and like to think that this qualifies me as somewhat of an expert on the matter. Thanks to this experience, I was able to walk into an interview for a standard guard position at Crimson Security, and walk away with an offer for a supervisor position. Crimson requires their supervisors to fill out reports online, yet does not list ownership of a laptop or tablet(the required tools to perform this duty) as a prerequisite for the job, nor are they willing to provide this necessary tool. On top of regular guard duties, their supervisors are also required to make the trip across town to fill work vehicles with gas whenever necessary. None of these things are all that out of line UNTIL you take into consideration the fact that they will NOT approve the overtime necessary to get this work done. They expect their supervisors to work OFF THE CLOCK and if they do not, they are berated, punished, and inevitably fired. Keep in mind, this is all for $13/hour. Keeping in tandem with the vice grip they have on their company funds, any time there is any kind of problem with a work vehicle, the people in charge will try their absolute damnedest to delegate the issue in such a way that it MUST be a guard's fault, instead of just the cost of doing business. Again, please bear in mind that these are vehicles that are running twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Can anyone tell me how simply circling the perimeter of a parking lot can make an alternator go out? Yeah, my boss couldn't either. That didn't stop him from blaming my guards. Just because this was such a common problem, let me give you a few more examples of vehicular maladies that were inevitable, yet treated like incompetence. A rock shot up from the gravel- due to the actions of a separate, non-company related car- and broke a window. A guard was blamed. The power cord for the electric vehicle stopped working. A guard was blamed. The Chief Operating Officer/Owner of Crimson Security TOLD US DIRECTLY to use an extension cord that the manufacturer's manual explicitly said NOT TO USE. When I brought this to his attention, I was ignored and told to use it anyway. Naturally, it killed the battery and- you guessed it- a guard was blamed. I was fired today. Why? If you ask my ex-boss, he'll say because of vehicular mistreatment. The REAL reason I was fired? Corporate greed. I found a better job, they knew it, and they didn't want to pay me out the vacation that I had never used. Anyone who reads this, please know that I am not a disgruntled ex-employee out for blood. I am simply a hard-working man trying to make ends meet. I refuse to be slandered by these people. These are the facts. Do with them what you will.

    I was disappointed when I first had my security system installed. I felt I was misled when…read morepurchasing it. I received a call today from the customer advocate team. I once again voiced my concerns and disappointment almost one month later. Thank you Fernando Llados Jr for finally hearing me and for making me feel like a valuable new customer and resolving my issues and concerns. I was ready to cancel and suffer the consequences before he called me. So I rescind my first review and will give 4 stars.

    ADT is one of the worse companies I have ever done business with. I have had to have them come out…read moreon two occasions and got terrible business both times. First with the service department when calling in then with the service man. The second time I asked them to come out and fix my service since neither the front or back door alarm was working and the key pad wasn't even working. They expected me to work on it while they walked me through it. I explained that I am seventy years old and had no desire to try to be the service man. I wanted someone to come out and fix the problem. I spend a lot of money for the last two years for the service. They were supposed to set me up for service and was told it would cost $59. They said it would be on Saturday. Saturday I got a phone call saying they were going to walk me through fixing it myself. I again explained I wanted a service man to come out and fix the problem. I was scheduled for Tuesday. The man came out and worked on the back door and then told me the problem was fixed and started to leave. I caught him in the driveway and had to get him to come back in because the front door still didn't work. He fixed it. Then I got a bill for $190 for the service call. Not the$59 I had originally been told. I have turned them in to the Better Business Bureau for their terrible service.
