January 22, 2018Revdex.com of Western PennsylvaniaAttn: [redacted] 400 Holiday Drive, Suite 220Pittsburgh, PA 15220RE: [redacted] – Complaint ID #[redacted] Dear Ms. [redacted]: Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) is in receipt of Mr. [redacted]’s complaint and values the opportunity to provide...

response in hopes of facilitating resolution of his concerns. Upon receipt of the subject complaint, Guardian conducted a thorough review of Mr. [redacted]’s account. For background, Guardian originally met with Mr. [redacted] in December 2014 to review products and services available for his new home, which was under construction at that time. After reviewing the available upgrades, Mr. [redacted] decided to engage Guardian to install a monitored security system in his new home. Mr. [redacted] acknowledged such engagement in writing by executing a Builder Division Sales and Monitoring Agreement (“Agreement”) with Guardian on December 20, 2014, which designates its initial term as sixty (60) months. In addition to signing the form, Mr. [redacted] also placed his initials beside the separate bolded section which explains, “This is a sixty (60) month monitoring agreement.” Mr. [redacted]’s system was installed and activated by Guardian on May 28, 2015. On December 28, 2017 with twenty-eight (28) months remaining in the initial term of his Agreement, Mr. [redacted] informed Guardian that he had sold the monitored premises and did not want to relocate services to his new home. Guardian explained that the new homeowners could activate services under a new Agreement for the remaining term which would relieve Mr. [redacted] from further obligation. Mr. [redacted] stated that the premises was being rented and further advised that the renters were not interested in services. Guardian’s representative explained that an early termination fee is required to cancel prior to the end of the initial term. Guardian received the subject complaint shortly thereafter. Upon receipt of your letter, Guardian contacted Mr. [redacted] to discuss his concerns directly. During that conversation, Guardian’s representative confirmed the early termination fee of $1,465.00 as defined in Section A of the Agreement. Notwithstanding, in an effort to bring swift resolution to this matter, Guardian offered to accept a drastically reduced early termination fee in the amount of $750.00. Mr. [redacted] accepted and remitted the reduced early termination fee to Guardian on January 22, 2018. Accordingly, monitoring services at the premises have been terminated effective December 28, 2017 and Mr. [redacted] has been released from all remaining obligations under the Agreement. Thank you for informing Guardian of Mr. [redacted]’s complaint. Should you have any questions, please contact Guardian directly at [redacted]. Sincerely,Agency Complaint Response Team

(“Guardian”) of Ms. [redacted]’s complaint. Guardian values the...

opportunity to provide response and address her concerns. For background, Ms. [redacted]’s security system was sold and installed by Skyline Security Management, Inc. (“Skyline”) whereby all aspects of her transaction took place directly with Skyline. Guardian was not present during the sales transaction or system installation. Skyline is a separate and distinct company from Guardian, for which Guardian provides 24-hour monitoring and related services for customers whose systems were sold and installed by Skyline. Guardian does not control any day-to-day business activities or any internal policies or procedures of Skyline, including security evaluations, sales processes, installation practices or any other aspects of Skyline’s business. Prior to receipt of your letter, Guardian spoke with Ms. [redacted] and offered to replace all Zone 1 and 2 devices at no charge to her. Ms. [redacted] requested time to consider the offer, however Guardian received the subject complaint shortly thereafter.Given the nature of Ms. [redacted]’s concerns, Guardian has agreed to discontinue 24-hour monitoring and related services. Upon termination, Guardian will no longer respond to any signals from Ms. [redacted]’s system. Ms. [redacted] has also requested to be released from her Agreement with Skyline. Because Ms. [redacted]’s contract is with Skyline, not Guardian, please direct all future communications regarding this matter to Skyline directly. They may be reached at: Skyline Security Management, Inc., [redacted].Thank you for the opportunity to provide Guardian’s response.

the opportunity to provide response in hopes of assisting Mr. [redacted]. Guardian sincerely apologizes to Mr. [redacted] for his recent interactions and expressed discontent with his Guardian sales consultant. Please understand these experiences are not reflective of Guardian’s high quality standards and expectations. Guardian’s research into this matter is continuing and will be addressed appropriately within the company. It is Guardian’s desire to resolve Mr. [redacted]’s concerns to his complete satisfaction. To that end, Guardian is willing to provide and install a cellular communication device at no charge to Mr. [redacted] and to waive the customary $10/month fee associated with the cellular service. This cellular device will allow Mr. [redacted]’s security system to communicate without the need for a landline telephone which Mr. [redacted] was unable to have furnished by his local cable company. Accordingly, Mr. [redacted]’s rate will be lowered to $29.99/month. Guardian will also reduce the initial term of Mr. [redacted]’s Agreement from thirty-six (36) months to twenty-four (24) months as concession for the issues Mr. [redacted] had with the equipment installation and interactions with his Guardian sales representative. Finally, Guardian will provide and install one (1) door contact at no charge to provide protection to the uncontacted door referenced in Mr. [redacted]’s complaint. Guardian also remains willing to work with Mr. [redacted] directly to address and resolve any additional concerns he may have. Respectfully, Guardian is unable to cancel Mr. [redacted]’s account without further payment. Guardian provided and installed expensive equipment in Mr. [redacted]’s home with the expectation to recover that investment over the initial term of his Agreement. While Mr. [redacted] did remit payment towards the cost of the equipment at the time of sale, that amount was not enough to cover Guardian’s full investment in the low voltage wiring, equipment and security system chosen by Mr. [redacted]. Should Mr. [redacted] wish to cancel his account, he may do so upon payment of the early termination fee as defined in the terms of his Agreement. Alternatively, Guardian would be pleased to work with Mr. [redacted] as described above to earn his trust and satisfaction in our services. Thank you for allowing Guardian to address this matter. Should you have any questions, please contact Guardian at [redacted]Sincerely,Agency Complaint Response Team

(“Guardian”) is in receipt of Ms. [redacted]’ further comments regarding this matter.  Respectfully, Guardian has made every reasonable effort to contact Ms. [redacted] and provide explanation to each and every one of her concerns. Guardian regrets that despite the efforts made to clarify her concerns, Ms. [redacted] remains dissatisfied.  Ms. [redacted] has requested written confirmation that her EZPay account has been cancelled. Guardian previously provided written confirmation of this information in the letter written to the Revdex.com on May 17, 2017.  Additionally, Guardian mailed a separate notification directly to Ms. [redacted] on May 22, 2017 which confirmed that her EZPay account was cancelled pursuant to her request.  Ms. [redacted] has disputed that Guardian’s contact attempts were made while she was at work and unavailable to take any telephone calls. Should Ms. [redacted] wish to contact Guardian in response to the messages left for her, she may do so at her convenience outside of work hours. Our Loyalty Department is available Monday through Friday from 7:30am – 10:00pm, Saturday from 8:00am – 10:00pm, and Sunday from 8:00am – 5:00pm, EST. The telephone number is [redacted].  Respectfully, Guardian’s attempts to contact Ms. [redacted] were made in a good faith effort to address her concerns, not to “force” her to listen to a telephone recording as she has asserted. Guardian merely offered to review the recording with Ms. [redacted] in an effort to provide explanation and eliminate any confusion.  In summary, Ms. [redacted] entered into a legally binding and valid Agreement with Guardian on July 25, 2016 in which she acknowledged the monthly rate of $34.95 and the initial term of 60 months.  Ms. [redacted] also executed a “Notice of Cancellation” form at the time of sale which served to document that Ms. [redacted] received three (3) full business days to review her paperwork and possessed the option to cancel her transaction with no further obligation. Ms. [redacted] did not cancel the transaction and Guardian proceeded to fulfill its obligations as set forth in the Agreement. At no time has Guardian taken advantage of Ms. [redacted] as asserted in her most recent letter. Should Ms. [redacted] wish to cancel, she may do so upon payment of the $750 early termination fee as designated in Section 8 by her Monitoring Agreement.  Should you have any questions, please contact me directly at [redacted].  Sincerely, John T[redacted], ManagerCustomer Care Loyalty Department

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.Billing issues have not been resolved. As I continue to make monthly payments, I continue to receive past due notices stating I am more than 60 days past due. Which I am not because I was told credits were in the system but never processed. As well as I have been paying for services that have not been working properly for the last couple weeks and due to that I had property stolen off my front porch. And still my cameras are not working. I can't view my cameras on the app, nor do the motion sensors work properly. As well as I get delayed text notifications after disarming/rearming my system. Also when a technician is scheduled to come out between 8-12 he doesn't show until 1-2 so I miss appointments and miss getting stuff done. Also I don't appreciate being told By one certain rep when I call in with an issue, that my devices are not under warranty and that I have to pay a service fee/equipment charge.

Dear Ms. [redacted]:
Thank you for informing Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) of Mr. [redacted]’s complaint. Guardian values the opportunity to provide response and facilitate resolution of Mr. [redacted]’s concerns.
Mr....

[redacted]’s letter disputes the automatic renewal of his contract. Our records indicate Mr. [redacted]’s initial transaction with Guardian occurred on April 2, 2010 at which time Mr. [redacted] executed a Sales and Monitoring Agreement (“Agreement”) to engage Guardian’s services. The initial term is designated as a period of sixty (60) months.
Please note, all of the terms and conditions associated with the services to be provided are detailed in Mr.
[redacted]’s Agreement, including but not limited to the Agreement’s automatic renewal. Section B of Mr. [redacted]’s Agreement clearly states, “After the initial term, the monitoring services will automatically renew for successive 5 year terms unless either party gives to the other at least 30 days written notice prior to the expiration date of its intention to terminate the Agreement upon its original or any renewed expiration date.” Guardian customers generally wish for their security services to continue beyond the initial term. For this reason the Agreement does not automatically terminate after the end of the initial term. The Agreement does provide the option to cancel within thirty days of the end of the initial term upon written request. Guardian’s records indicate Mr. [redacted]’s initial term renewed on April 21, 2015.
On September 15, 2015, Mr. [redacted] contacted Guardian and requested the cancellation of his account, stating he was unhappy with his services. Guardian offered to schedule onsite service to inspect and correct any issues, however Mr. [redacted] declined. Guardian’s representative informed Mr. [redacted] that his initial term had renewed and an early termination fee was required to cancel the account. As a gesture of good faith, Guardian’s representative offered to accept a 50% reduction of the early termination fee. Mr. [redacted] accepted and remitted the amount of $241.73. Upon receipt of Mr. [redacted]’s early termination fee, Guardian processed the cancellation of Mr. [redacted]’s account effective October 6, 2015. Guardian received the subject complaint shortly thereafter.
Upon receipt of your letter, Guardian contacted Mr. [redacted] to discuss his concerns directly. In good faith and in order to bring swift resolution to this matter, Guardian has agreed to refund the early termination fee previously remitted by Mr. [redacted] in the amount of $241.73. Mr. [redacted] has expressed his satisfaction with this resolution.

Dear Ms. [redacted]
Thank you for advising Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) of the above-referenced matter. Guardian greatly values any opportunity to address a question or concern.

review of the above matter and have determined that Ms. [redacted]’s account came to Guardian by way of an Authorized Dealer known as [redacted]”). As such, all aspects of Ms. [redacted]’s sales transaction took place directly between [redacted] and Ms. [redacted]. [redacted] is a separate and distinct company from Guardian, for which Guardian provides 24-hour monitoring and related services for customers who systems were sold and installed by [redacted]. Guardian does not control any day-to-day business activities or any internal policies or procedures of AHS, including security evaluations, sales processes, installation practices or any other aspects of [redacted]’s business.
Ms. [redacted] has requested the cancellation of her account. Respectfully, Guardian is merely the provider of 24-hour monitoring services for Ms. [redacted] on behalf of [redacted]. Guardian is unable to cancel Ms. [redacted]’s account due to the fact that her contractual obligation is with [redacted].

RE: S[redacted] – Complaint ID #[redacted]
Dear Ms. [redacted]:
Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) is in receipt of Mr. [redacted]’s complaint and values the...

opportunity to provide response in hopes of facilitating resolution and clarifying this matter for all parties.
For background, Mr. [redacted]’s initial transaction with Guardian occurred on February 11, 2013 at which time he executed a Residential Sales and Monitoring Agreement (“Agreement”) in order to engage Guardian's services. The initial term of the Agreement was for a period of thirty-six (36) months. Mr. [redacted] acknowledged the term of the Agreement by affixing his initials beside the separate and bolded clause which specifically states, “This is a 36 month monitoring agreement.” Mr. [redacted] also executed the Agreement by affixing his signature at the bottom of the form.
In December 2014 with fifteen (15) months remaining in the initial term of his Agreement, Mr. [redacted] informed Guardian that he was moving from the monitored premises. Guardian’s representative explained that the initial term of Mr. [redacted]’s Agreement had not yet been satisfied and in order to cancel the Agreement immediately, payment of an early termination fee was required. In an effort to assist Mr. [redacted] in fulfilling his obligations under the Agreement, Guardian explained that should the new homeowner elect to activate monitoring services under a new Agreement, his Agreement would be satisfied. Guardian also offered to place the account in an inactive status for a period of three (3) months to allow Mr. [redacted] the opportunity to secure new permanent housing. Mr. [redacted] advised he wished to determine if the new homeowners would like to activate service in their name.
Shortly thereafter, Mrs. [redacted] contacted Guardian and disputed the remaining term of Mr. [redacted]’s Agreement, further stating she could locate no language in the Agreement which indicated Mr. [redacted] remained responsible for the remaining term after moving. Guardian’s representative explained that Mr. [redacted] does indeed remain responsible to fulfill the terms of the Agreement. Mrs. [redacted] requested to speak with a manager regarding her concerns. A Guardian supervisor did call as requested and left a voicemail message for Mrs. [redacted].
Guardian received no further contact from Mr. or Mrs. [redacted] until February 2015 at which time Mr. [redacted] advised they had moved into a new home. Mr. [redacted] requested to transfer monitoring services to his new residence for the remaining twelve (12) months of his Agreement. Guardian’s representative explained that in order to transfer services, a minimum Agreement term of thirty-six (36) months is required to offset the upfront costs of relocation. Mr. [redacted] expressed he no longer wished to relocate monitoring services based on the information provided to him.
Subsequent to that conversation, Guardian made several attempts to contact Mr. and/or Mrs. [redacted] to follow up regarding the status of their account. Upon reaching Mr. [redacted] in November 2015, Guardian was advised that Mr. [redacted] felt he was not responsible for any further payment on the account. Guardian received the subject complaint shortly thereafter.
Mr. [redacted]’s complaint cites that Guardian “has been unable to produce” a copy of his contract stating he remains responsible to fulfill the initial term of his Agreement after moving from the monitored premises. Guardian has reviewed his account and respectfully could find no record of Mr. and/or Mrs. [redacted] requesting a copy of their Agreement at any time. Guardian apologizes for any confusion. A copy of Mr. [redacted]’s Agreement is attached to this response for his records. Additionally, please note that the language Mr. [redacted] is requesting is found in Section 5 which states, “The Customer’s obligations under this Agreement continue even if the Customer sells or leaves the Premises.”
Upon receipt of your letter, Guardian contacted Mr. [redacted] to discuss his concerns directly. Mr. [redacted] informed Guardian that we must speak with Mrs. [redacted] who is unavailable until December 22, 2015.
Ms. [redacted] has requested the cancellation of his account with Guardian. Section 6 of Mr. [redacted]’s Agreement states he may terminate his obligation by remitting an early termination fee which is identified to be “(a) all amounts then due; (b) 20% of the amount due to the Company for the remainder of this Agreement; (c) the Deferred Payment Amount…” The Deferred Payment Amount is defined to be $930 in Section A of Mr. [redacted]’s Agreement. As such, the total early termination fee is $1,218.38 ($270.85 current balance + $17.53 representing 20% of remaining months + $930 Deferred Payment Amount.) However, in a good faith effort to bring swift resolution to this matter, Guardian will agree to accept the current balance of $270.85 as final payment in order to cancel Mr. [redacted]’s account.
Guardian believes the above offer to be fair and reasonable and is hopeful that Mr. and Mrs. [redacted] will concur. This offer shall remain available to Mr. [redacted] until close of business on January 15, 2016 after which it will be rescinded.
I am hopeful the above information has assisted to clarify this matter for all parties. Thank you for informing Guardian of Mr. [redacted]’s complaint. Should you have any questions, please contact me directly at ###-###-####, ext. [redacted]

provide response and to clarify this matter for all parties. For background, Mr. [redacted]’s account came to Guardian by way of an Authorized Dealer known as AMP Security (“AMP”). As such, all aspects of Mr. [redacted]’s sales transaction and system installation took place directly between AMP and Mr. [redacted]. Please note that AMP is a separate and distinct company from Guardian, for which Guardian provides 24-hour monitoring and related services for customers whose systems were sold and installed by AMP. Guardian does not control any day-to-day business activities or any internal policies or procedures of AMP, including security evaluations, sales processes, installation practices or any other aspects of AMP’s business. Mr. [redacted]’s complaint asserts that he believed the initial term of his Agreement to be three (3) years. Our records indicate that Mr. [redacted] initially engaged AMP’s services on November 16, 2015, as memorialized in the Authorized Dealer Monitoring and Repair Agreement (“Agreement”). The initial term of the Agreement is designated as a period of sixty (60) months. Mr. [redacted] acknowledged the initial term by placing his initials in Section D which states, “The initial term of this Agreement is 60 months.” Mr. [redacted] also executed the Agreement by placing his signature at the bottom of the form. During the initial sales transaction, AMP routinely conducts two (2) recorded and documented telephone conversations with the customer whereby the customer orally acknowledges the term of the agreement, the monthly rate and other information pertinent to activating services. The purpose of AMP’s telephone surveys is to confirm accurate information and ensure the customer understands the obligations of both parties. Guardian’s research confirmed that Mr. and Mrs. [redacted] completed the telephonic surveys at the time of sale during which they orally acknowledged an initial term of sixty (60) months during both recorded telephone calls. Upon receipt of your letter, Guardian made several attempts to contact Mr. [redacted] to provide the above explanation and to offer to play the recording of the telephone conversations at the time of sale with AMP. To date, Guardian has been unable to speak with Mr. [redacted].Respectfully, Guardian is unable to cancel Mr. [redacted]’s account without further payment. After review of the telephone surveys conducted by AMP at the time of sale and after review of the Agreement terms, Guardian does not feel that Mr. [redacted] was misled in any way. Further, please note that Guardian is under no restriction in the state of California related to a contract term of five (5) years. Should Mr. [redacted] wish to cancel his account at the present time, he may do so upon payment of an early termination fee pursuant to the terms of his Agreement. That amount is designated to be $750. Accordingly, upon receipt of payment of $750, Mr. [redacted]’s account will be cancelled and he will be released from all remaining obligation. Alternatively, Mr. [redacted] may continue to remit timely monthly payments until such time that he is eligible to cancel the account. Thank you for allowing Guardian the opportunity to clarify this matter for all parties. Should you have any questions, please contact Guardian at [redacted]. Sincerely,Agency Complaint Response Team

system installed in his home. Immediately upon receipt of the complaint, Guardian contacted Mr. [redacted] to discuss his concerns directly.

Mr. [redacted] has since restored power to the camera system and has informed Guardian that the equipment is functioning properly.
Mr. [redacted] also inquired about reducing his monthly monitoring rate. In good faith, Guardian offered to reduce Mr. [redacted]’ rate to $52.95 per month. Mr. [redacted] has indicated his complete satisfaction with this resolution and further expressed that he no longer wishes to cancel his account.
