The comment…read moreleft by the business owner below is a direct contradiction of the court order. ********************************************************************************** A representative Liberty Security Services (Ryan Hoy) was introduced to us by Sutton Electric as a contractor to provide remote controlled thermostat capabilities. Although Liberty seemed only to specialize in home security, Ryan insisted that environmental control was something they did. Ryan's team installed three battery powered thermostats with Z-Wave communication controls via remote application. The device continually displayed incorrect temperature information and was unable to remotely control any of the devices. We contacted Liberty numerous times where we were told that everything seemed to be working on their end. We continued to try and use the application to no avail. Four months later, during yet another call to Liberty, they offered to send out a technician to see what the problem was. The technician indicated that the devices were not connected to the internet during the initial install and, as such, were non-functional. As requested, we had emailed Ryan our internet credentials to connect the devices, but this was never done. The technician connected the devices. At that point, we expressed disappointment, but did not request a refund for the monitoring services for which Liberty was charging over $30/month. Despite the devices now being functionally connected, the remote control application continued to disappoint. Inconsistent temperature reads and no ability to control remotely. In January, we came to the house and 2 of the 3 thermostats were completely off. The temperature had fallen well below what is considered a safe range for the winter season. When we called Liberty, they again indicated things were working on their end. We indicated that the device screens were black and they were non-responsive to manual control. At this, we were prompted to replace the batteries. Once replaced, the thermostats became functional again. Ryan insisted he used lithium batteries that should last years, not 4-5 months. This was not the case, as the batteries we removed were not lithium and were seemingly used since they died so quickly. Most disturbing, Liberty - serving in the capacity of an environmental monitoring service - was not alerted to the battery failure. We then requested a refund for the prior months' services charges, which Liberty agreed to reimburse. Weeks went by and we did not receive reimbursement; however, the thermostats continued to be non-responsive in terms of remote control. At this point, we requested a full refund for the products and services from Liberty and returned the equipment. Ryan agreed the service had not been up to par and agreed to refund us the cost of the thermostats, installation and service charges. In addition, we spoke to other contractors who indicated the thermostats should not have been used with our current wiring. Despite numerous email communications and phone calls, the refund was still not processed months later. We called our credit card company, which was able to reverse some of the charges. Liberty then indicated that the refund could not be processed due to the credit card dispute and told us to remove it. Though we did so, and continued communication with Liberty, two more months have passed. Not only have we not received a refund, but communication has become non-productive to the point we are being forced to seek legal representation to compel Liberty to refund us, as promised. Caveat Emptor: Based on our experience, it seems Liberty Security Services functions via two guys who install equipment without discussing limitations with customers, then charge customers a monthly fee to "monitor" said equipment. They answer their cell phones and tell you everything is working fine but nothing is really being monitored. Hopefully we will be able to recoup our costs, though unfortunately it seems we will require legal assistance to do so. As such, I hope this recount of our experience serves as a warning to others before engaging in business with Liberty Security Services.

For months, I was dealing with a zone that was suffering from voltage spikes and producing false alarms left and right. I called my monitoring company to do repairs. First, they sent someone out to replace a contact (even though that was clearly not the issue) and billed me for hours of troubleshooting, then I was stuck calling back in countless times trying to reach the "right" person to resolve my issue - all while having 2 to 3 false alarms per day! Finally, I got fed up and called Catskill Security Systems. I called them and - boom - got a service appointment the very next day. Joe came out and diagnosed my rather complex issue with ease. After an hour or so, my system was back online and not a false alarm since. Thank you Joe!! I can't emphasize enough just how much more knowledgeable and professional this team is compared to other security companies in the area. I have a background in electronics and software engineering, so it's hard to bullshit someone like me when it comes to fixing low voltage circuits. I am always impressed and satisfied by the skills and knowledge that this company has. Going forward, I won't trust my security system with anyone other than Catskill Security Systems!

My neighbors have an interactive system and are able to control their entire home from their smart phones, I thought that it would be perfect for me but probably out of my budget. I researched my options after comparing multiple quotes from local and national companies and decided to go with JTech Security Systems. I was able to get next day appointment for an estimate. The owner of the company showed up. His name is Jason, He was very , personable and knowledgeable. What I enjoyed about him the most is that he wasn't a pushy salesman, I didnt feel pressured or obligated as the other companies made me feel to sign up same day. We discussed what my security concerns and goals were, Jason took his time and did a thorough walk through explaining potential security vulnerabilities that I overlooked, more importantly advised me on the lack of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in my home. He also pointed out that my existing security system is hooked up to the telephone line which in the event of a burglary can be cut. New technology runs on cellular networks. I never knew home security was can be so in depth. Jason opened my eyes to all these potential threats. Out of all the security companies that showed up for estimates, Jason was the only one who came with a demo. It was great to be able to see and touch the products before I made a purchase. After careful consideration, I decided that Jtech was a good fit for my family and home. I upgraded my existing system for a new smart home security system. The main panel is touch screen and visually intuitive. The best part is that I can totally control it from my Iphone or computer, not only does it control my alarm but it is also connected my cameras, lighting, thermostats, garage doors and front/back door locks in my home . If I forget to turn the thermostat down before I leave the house, it automatically goes down to a set temperature when I arm the system away. Making my home more energy efficient. My favorite part is that I can keep an eye on my baby and pets anytime from work. I can also let people into my home such as the dog walker or contractor...all from my phone. I do not have to give out my alarm codes anymore or make copies of keys which can be duplicated or lost. I am so happy that I got this system. Its not just a security system...it's part of my lifestyle. I am connected to my home and family while I'm away...that is so important for a working mom...to have that peace of mind. I'm so grateful for this technology and to Jason for installing it and patiently teaching me how to use it as I am not so tech savvy. Another great part of my experience is the price, it was so much more affordable than I thought. He was able to work within my budget. I love it and highly recommend JTECH over the bigger corporations because of high level of personal service, great technology and affordability. I am also having Jason install a system at my business location. I've already referred Jtech to my family and friends and they love it too! Once you have a "smart home"...you can't picture how you ever lived with out it! Lena
