I have been a loyal customer for over 20 years and I would have to pay for a new system. I am severing tires with the company that does not believe in customer service nor taking care of their customers. Safe Touch has a low customer raining here on Yelp due to their inability to meet their obligations and take care of their customers.

But based on my overall fairly recent experiences with Safe Touch company, prior to when I very recently received assistance from Safe Touch's employee Justin, I would have given S T just 3 stars. However I would if possible definitely want to give more than 5 stars to Justin in the Jacksonville Safe Touch service center. Justin is an extremely helpful and a very patient service representative!! I have had three different issues come up over the past month re: 3 different component failures within my Safe Touch security system. All 3 issues occurred on weekend days when the Tallahassee office is closed during the weekend. I thus called S T's Jacksonville location. In doing so, I was very fortunate to have reached Justin. He was able to guide me through the process that was necessary in order to stop what had been a failed component's weekend long beeping warning sounds :-( . And today Justin very patiently stepped me though the processes that helped to rectify a third system component which had caused my entire security system to completely stop functioning over the weekend. I truly hope Safe Touch's management team fully realizes just how very fortunate S T is to have an exemplary employee such as Justin. He is an extremely helpful, knowledgeable, patient and a very kind S T representative!! If I possibly could, I would certainly want to give him more than just 5 Stars!!! Janice S.

As of 23 March 2025, I' been a customer of Vivint since the middle of 2022. Over the last 12…read moremonths, the smoke/carbon detector has been going off more frequently as every month past. When talking with Vivint Representative during trouble shooting, there response was the dust is why the alarm would activate. I had my ventilation ducts cleaned, and after several weeks, the alarm continued to be set off 3 to 4 times per month. Finally, Vivint agreed to replace the detector. The same vivint Representative I spoke with on replacing the device, said I would also receive prepaid postage to return the old faulty detector. Upon receiving the new detector, I opened the package to find the new detector with no prepaid postage label or even a return address to ship the old faulty smoke detector. The directions were not detailed enough to program the new detector into the vivint hub panel. So, I had to call Vivint and to get the detector setup and get them to email me a return address to mail the faulty detector to (58 minute phone call), which should have not taken over 10 to 15minutes at the most to complete. Here is further information, highlighting why the phone call took so long. First of all, customer service had very broken English, I could barely make out every other word they were saying. I was having to ask them to repeat what they were saying. 2nd, I ask them to clarify procedures for returning the faulty equipment. The Representative, first said the faulty equipment didn't have to be returned (red flag) completely contradicting what the first Representative had told me 10 days prior. I told the Representative, that I'm not going to be on the hook for a ridiculous fee of not returning faulty equipment, and the information that he was giving me was conflicting information of the first representative. I requested email to be sent to me with a address to ship the faulty equipment to, and after 45minutes waiting on the phone, I finally received the email. It didn't take but 5 minutes to give him the numbers off the new device and he manually entered it in his system and it appeared on my security panel. Vivint has a good product in my opinion, please work on the setup instructions and improving customer service. I hope this review has been helpful.

I'm writing this because today's interaction with Atlantic Security was so unprofessional that it…read moregenuinely shocked me. Months ago, I called Atlantic for a quote on a system. I decided to keep researching, because unlike many customers, I don't jump into expensive security decisions blindly. After doing extensive research, I determined that the DSC NEO system was the right fit for me. I contacted Atlantic Security again and requested a quote specifically for the NEO. The quote came back at over $5,000, which was unnecessarily high, so I declined politely. A few months later, I purchased the DSC NEO directly from Tyco Integrated / Johnson Controls--the manufacturer. Today, I called Atlantic Security to inquire about installation and monitoring. Instead of receiving normal customer service, I was spoken to with a snarky, condescending attitude by a representative named Laina. She told me they were "not interested in doing business with me" and that I had "wasted their time multiple times." This is completely unacceptable. Comparing prices, researching equipment, and ensuring I make the right decision on a multi-thousand-dollar security system is not "wasting time." That is called being a smart consumer. These are major decisions--not impulse purchases. Here's the part Atlantic clearly didn't bother to consider: My father's company is a major corporation with multiple homes, buildings, and commercial sites--every one of which is secured and monitored. He is one of Atlantic Security's largest clients. In addition: I personally own a large technology company, and the amount of future business Atlantic could have received from me alone is something they clearly can't even begin to fathom. Because of the disrespect I experienced from one representative, Atlantic Security has now jeopardized--and likely completely lost--two major long-term clients representing a massive amount of revenue. All because of one employee who chose to speak to a customer with rudeness, attitude, and zero professionalism. I will be filing a formal BBB complaint. At minimum, Atlantic Security needs to retrain or reassign Laina, because speaking to paying clients or potential clients that way is unacceptable in any industry--let alone the security industry. Congratulations, Atlantic Security. In a single phone call, you managed to lose a tremendous amount of business from two extremely large companies
