      Resolved
      Twice since I have been a Guardian Alarm customer I was told things that were not true, initially when I purchased the alarm almost eleven years ago I was told that all of my equipment was covered by a warranty as $7 of my monthly payment was to warranty my equipment this was not true and I found this out due to a previous issue with my alarm. Currently I called several days ago because I was having issues with my control panel and was told the first available appointment was on Monday April 15th, but I was told if my alarm quit working all together to call back and they would send someone out sooner than that. I called today because it is no longer working at all and was told that was not true as well!

      ******* NEVER should have sold to this company! They are the worst! We are lucky to receive notifications of system issues in a week after the event if at all! Today was the last straw when our smoke alarm was triggered and it took them 15 minutes to call then they hung up after one ring to our phone before I could even talk. Next they called my cell and AGAIN it rang one time before they hung up. As unbelievable as it may seem they called my husbands cell phone and AGAIN hung up before we could even talk. They have hiked up their rates 3 times in little more than a year to top off their lousy service. I will be looking for a security system elsewhere ASAP!
