Excellent Work on Our Access Control System!…read more I am very impressed with the service we received from Ameritechs. They came in to handle the wiring for our current Access Control Unit and did a fantastic job. They were thorough, testing every single lead to ensure everything was wired correctly. Thanks to their expertise, all of our strikes and doors are now functioning perfectly within our system. Professional, efficient, and highly skilled--I would definitely recommend them. Thank you for the great work!

The problem started when Ameritechs installed 10 cameras on my home camera system and did not…read morerecord the passwords or give them to me. I don't know anything about cameras and passwords so I didn't know to ask. When it came time to change the NVR, I was told they don't have the passwords and will charge me $750 to retrieve them from the cameras. I shouldn't have to pay for something they should have provided in the first place. Chris came over for $50 and examined the cameras, the analog ones that needed to be replaced, and suggested a new NVR. I got an estimate for $3030 to replace 3 cameras and the NVR and reconnect existing cameras to NVR. Without NVR it was $2130. There were no details about specs for the cameras or NVR. That's like sending a customer an invoice for $30,000 for "a car." People generally want a little more detail about what they're getting. I asked that they first just come out to retrieve the passwords for the 10 cameras, fix camera #7 that stopped working, and fix a screw that their tech stripped when he installed that camera. They said they wanted $750 to retrieve the passwords. They also wanted to charge $129 for someone to come out again and look at the cameras again, when I just paid $50 for Chris to look at them. And I maintain that I should not have to pay for something that they should have provided to begin with. I asked how many TB was in the Uniview NVR as the estimate didn't specify. The first time I was told it "supported storage" of 16TB to 32TB. Next email said the NVR comes pre-installed with 4TB storage. Next email said the NVR on the estimate does not come with any storage - they planned to reuse the old hard drives from my existing NVR - but no one ever asked me about that. Those drives were at least 5 years old and at end of life. If I wanted new hard drives, it would be an extra charge. I asked if cameras were 4K (the estimate only says 4MP). Finally, was told they would be 2K at $140 each. I asked about the warranty for the equipment. They said it's manufacturer warranty, not theirs, but didn't know and never said what it was. Isn't that something that every buyer wants to know? What is the warranty! Next estimate added $200 to reset the camera #7 that was not working, plus $750 to reset the other 10 cameras so I would have the passwords plus the $3030 for 3 new cameras and NVR - so $4624. And that probably didn't include any hard drive for the NVR as they were going to reuse my old ones. I got a lot of other confusing emails from Kanani interjecting things we never discussed like suddenly asking me if I wanted a hybrid DVR. I don't need a hybrid DVR. Then Kanani thought I wanted Uniview cameras. I never said that. Every time I asked a question, I got a different answer. Every time, the price got higher or didn't include some component that would be extra. I had another company come out to try and reset the camera passwords. He said that brand of camera TVT (Shenzhen TVT Digital Technology Co., Ltd) is difficult and takes 45 minutes to reset the password for each camera and get it onto the Avalonix XVR (which is why Ameritechs didn't want to do it either). He said it would be cheaper to replace the cameras with new 8K cameras. So, the 10 cameras that I just paid Ameritechs $4,439 to install in the past two years are now worthless. That doesn't seem like good customer service. I feel I was taken advantage of - I'm a senior citizen now and a woman alone and always a target to be ripped off because I don't know what I don't know. I think we might end up in small claims court because I really got screwed over. I don't have energy for it but some things you can't let stand.

We have been ADT customers for 13 years, ever since we were robbed while doing a large home…read morerenovation, including new windows and sliders, so of course we had no active alarm system. The installation was good, not great, but we have a large house and that creates some difficulties with system which is not hardwired. We have found the wi-fi connection to be perfect for our purposes, including simply using our phone if we were already in bed and too lazy to get up and walk to the main panel to set the night "stay" alarm. The monthly bill is within our capacity, but it might be more than others would want to pay. And special technical service is very expensive, $59 for the service call, but a lot more if onsite work is needed, starting at $189 for the first half-hour. In the past, one could get phone help, including direct conversation with technical support, but that seems to have disappeared. We discovered this when the battery in a motion detector sensor started to die and we bought a new battery, only to find that we could not open the sensor to get at the battery itself, even after watching videos from YouTube and ADT itself.

I have problems with ADT…read more I have an alarm constantly going off all day long. I spent three hours on the phone with support department last Thursday and was disconnected four times. Support could not fix it. We tried every suggestion and even did a video connection for them to review the equipment and hear the beeping. They had me disconnect all of the smoke alarms and the beeping continued, they had me remove all the batteries and it still beeped. They had me reset the system and it still beeped, they had me remove the batteries from the keyboard and it still beeped. They had me shut down the system and it still BEEPED! I am checking the one star box only because there is no zero or negative stars. STAY AWAY FROM ADT I had to wait almost a week (Wednesday) for a service call. The service person checked everything and could not resolve the problem and told me it would cost $180.00 an hour to research the problem and I need to call the service department again. I called Tuesday and told them I want to cancel after 10 years and was told they will send a repair person again and they would waive the service call charged. I was told that the representative would be here between noon and 4:00 pm so I had to take off from work. THE SERVICE REP NEVER SHOWED UP AND NEVER EVEN BOTHERED TO CALL. This is the worst customer care I have ever experienced and lack of response. I will be cancelling my account in the morning. ADT shows no concern for loyal customers. I will suggest to anyone reading this, DO NOT USE ADT SECURITY under any circumstances. There are many companies that can be used for less money and will respond to customers .

For a tile project, shouldn't there be an onsite evaluation to assess the work required? Moreover, if you had visited my location, I could have discussed two additional tasks that would significantly increase the scope and cost of the project to your advantage. In response to the owner, I did provide descriptions for additional projects in the original request. I was concerned about potential damage to the tiles that could require significant repairs. I have expressly said that I was willing to pay a premium for proper handling of the situation. When I mentioned those concerns, other providers did express a lot more caution about the tile situation and they came out to make sure it could be done. I understand that there's an opportunity cost to come out in person but I expected a premium service provider to be able to do so. That's simply not materialized.
