      Complaint Type:
      Billing Issues
      Status:
      Answered
      On the date of July 5, 2023 Certified Alarm without authorization withdrew $21.50 from my checking account. I did not sign the authorization they sent to me nor return the authorization they sent to me. I have not been under contract with them for years. This is bad business practice and I believe it to be fraudulent and illegal as well. They are aware of the fact that what they did was wrong but refuse to send me a check to reimburse me as they had promised to send me a check by Monday of last week. Now they say it will be the end of the month. They have lied repeatedly to me. I do not believe a word they say. I am currently in the process of contacting Regions Bank to notify them of Certified Alarm’s withdrawal of my money without my authorization. I will be asking Regions to provide me with my signature of authorization to have this money withheld from my checking account. I did NOT sign anything authorizing $21.50 to be taken from my account and given to Certified Alarm.

      They are crooks. We are moving out of the area and they say we signed a new contract in 2022 when they choose to upgrade our system. We were told we needed the upgrade. We didn’t request it. They want us to pay til 2025. They said we can get contract at new house but they won’t service new house in Bluffton SC
