November 14, 2017Revdex.com of Western PennsylvaniaAttn: [redacted] 400 Holiday Drive, Suite 220Pittsburgh, PA 15220RE: [redacted]Dear Ms. [redacted]: Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) in in receipt of the above-referenced complaint. Guardian values the opportunity to provide response and facilitate resolution of Ms. [redacted]’ concerns. Upon receipt of the subject complaint, Guardian conducted a thorough review of Ms. [redacted]’ account including recent telephone calls. (Due to the nature of Guardian’s business, all customer telephone calls and interactions are recorded.) Guardian offers the following information. Ms. [redacted] has asked for verification that she authorized the purchase of new equipment and the charges associated with the purchase. Our records revealed that Guardian spoke with Ms. [redacted] on June 22, 2017 to discuss relocating services to her new home. During that conversation, Guardian’s representative confirmed that services would be reinstalled for a discounted fee of $100. While verifying the number of devices being transferred from her former home, Ms. [redacted] realized that she was in need of five (5) additional window contacts. Guardian’s representative quoted a discounted price of $35 per contact and Ms. [redacted] verbally agreed to the price. (Please note, should Ms. [redacted] wish to listen to these recorded telephone calls, she may do so by contacting Guardian at the telephone number below.)To commemorate the transaction, Ms. [redacted] executed a Sales and Installation Agreement on June 22, 2017 which indicated a balance of $275 due following installation. (5 contacts x $35 = $175 + $100 reinstall = $275). Ms. [redacted] also executed a Monitoring Agreement on June 22, 2017 for her remaining term of thirty-eight (38) months at $44.95/month.Guardian also reviewed Ms. [redacted]’ account in response to her assertion that she did not receive a callback from a Guardian representative as promised. Guardian’s records indicate that a representative, Jeff, spoke to Ms. [redacted] on October 27, 2017 at approximately 5:25pm. Shortly after completing the call, Jeff reached back out to Ms. [redacted] at 5:44pm and left a voicemail message for her on the premises telephone number. Several days later on October 31, 2017, Jeff left another voicemail message for Ms. [redacted] on the premises telephone number. Guardian received no further contact from Ms. [redacted] until receipt of the subject complaint. Based on the above information and the recorded telephone calls, Guardian has confirmed that Ms. [redacted]’ verbally authorized the purchase of additional contacts and the cost associated with those devices. Ms. [redacted] also executed the Sales and Installation Agreement which clearly defined the amount of $275 due upon installation. As such, Guardian finds the charges to be accurate. Guardian is hopeful the above information has assisted to clarify this matter for Ms. [redacted]. Should you have any questions, please contact Guardian at [redacted]. Sincerely,Agency Complaint Response Team

January 12, 2018Revdex.com of Western PennsylvaniaAttn: [redacted] 400 Holiday Drive, Suite 220Pittsburgh, PA 15220RE: [redacted] – Complaint ID #[redacted]Dear Ms. [redacted]: Thank you for informing Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) of Mr. [redacted]’s complaint. Guardian values the...

opportunity to provide response in hopes of clarifying this matter for all parties. For background, Mr. [redacted]’s account came to Guardian by way of an authorized dealer of Guardian known as Eagle Alarm. As such, all aspects of the sales transaction and system installation took place directly with Eagle Alarm. Additionally, the telephone conversation referenced by Mr. [redacted] related to the monthly rate negotiated during the sales transaction also took place directly with Eagle Alarm. Please note that Eagle Alarm is a separate and distinct company from Guardian; Guardian does not control any day-to-day business activities, internal policies or procedures of Eagle Alarm. Mr. [redacted] has requested that Guardian release proprietary code information so that he may access the configuration programming of his security system control panel. Our records indicate Mr. [redacted] contacted Guardian for assistance on January 1, 2018 at which time Mr. [redacted] requested the programming code for his security panel to sync his key fob. Guardian’s representative explained that Guardian could not provide the programming code and offered to schedule a service visit to complete any programming. Mr. [redacted] declined to schedule service and disputed that Guardian would not provide him the code as it belongs to the security equipment which he owns. Mr. [redacted] then requested the cancellation of his account. Mr. [redacted]’s call was transferred to a Guardian supervisor who also explained that the code could not be released. Mr. [redacted] cited dissatisfaction that Guardian accessed his system without his knowledge to change the installer code which he had personally changed in the past. Guardian’s representative assured Mr. [redacted] that Guardian did not access his system or change the code at any time, however the manufacturer may have done so. Guardian again offered to assist by scheduling onsite service however Mr. [redacted] declined. Guardian received the subject complaint shortly thereafter. Respectfully, while Mr. [redacted] may be technically proficient and capable in such matters, Guardian politely declines to provide the programming code due to the sensitivity of this proprietary information. The use of a proprietary code is standard practice in the security industry and is deployed not only to protect consumers from unauthorized tampering of highly sensitive system-level programming, but also to protect sensitive proprietary company-owned information contained within the system. Access and tampering with the programming level of the system could cause detrimental results such as the system becoming unstable and/or transmitting false alarms whereby police, fire and/or medical authorities may be needlessly summoned. Manufacturers of electronic security products design their control panels to utilize such codes for these reasons. The programming code is used to control access to system-level programming and does not prohibit the use of the system as it was intended by the manufacture and configured by the installing company. It may also be helpful to know that Mr. [redacted]’s Authorized Dealer Sales and Installation Agreement dated September 23, 2015 incorporates language relating to this subject matter. Section 7 specifically outlines, “You will own the System, except for the control/transmitting device which contains Our proprietary data and which We will always own.” Guardian apologizes to Mr. [redacted] for any confusion or inconvenience.In reference to Mr. [redacted]’s belief that Guardian accessed his security panel to change the programming code and deactivate a key fob without his knowledge, Guardian has reviewed the service history of Mr. [redacted]’s account. Our records indicate that a key fob was deactivated by Eagle Alarm on October 9, 2015. Guardian subsequently remotely reactivated the key fob on April 3, 2016. Guardian has not remotely accessed Mr. [redacted]’s account since April 3, 2016. Further, at no time has Guardian made any changes to Mr. [redacted]’s programming code nor has Guardian deactivated any devices without Mr. [redacted]’s knowledge. Finally, Guardian has reviewed the telephone interaction on January 1, 2018 in response to Mr. [redacted]’s assertion that Guardian’s representative spoke to him in a derogatory manner. (Due to the nature of Guardian’s business, all telephone calls are recorded.) A detailed review of the subject telephone conversation revealed that Guardian’s representative remained courteous and conducted herself with the utmost professionalism in an earnest and good faith attempt to assist Mr. [redacted]. Upon receipt of your letter, Guardian reached out to Mr. [redacted] to provide the above explanation. To date, Guardian has been unable to speak directly with Mr. [redacted] regarding this matter.Should Mr. [redacted] wish for assistance with programming a key fob or any other security device, Guardian would be pleased to schedule onsite service at his convenience. Guardian would also be pleased to work with Mr. [redacted] to negotiate a reduced cost for the appointment based on the specific needs for service. Mr. [redacted] may contact Guardian at his convenience to schedule a service appointment. Guardian is hopeful the above information has assisted to clarify this matter for all parties. Thank you for the opportunity to address Mr. [redacted]’s complaint. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact Guardian at ([redacted]. Sincerely,Agency Complaint Response Team

RE: [redacted] – Complaint ID #[redacted]
Dear Ms. [redacted]
Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) is in receipt of the above-referenced complaint from Ms. [redacted]. Guardian values the opportunity to address her concerns.
For background, Ms. [redacted]’s...

account came to Guardian by way of an authorized dealer of Guardian known as [redacted] Security (“[redacted]”). As such, all aspects of Ms. [redacted]’s sales transaction and system installation took place directly with [redacted]; Guardian was not present for any aspect. In order to establish a Guardian account for Ms. [redacted] and activate 24-hour monitoring and related services, Guardian requires certain paperwork from [redacted]. All such required paperwork was provided thereby facilitating activation of Ms. [redacted]’s services.
Please note that [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 [redacted], including security evaluations, sales processes, installation practices or any other aspects of [redacted]’s business.
Ms. [redacted] has expressed dissatisfaction with the fire detection devices in her home. Our records indicate Ms. [redacted] met with [redacted]’s sales consultant in November 2010 after which she elected to activate the security monitoring devices already installed in her home, which included one (1) smoke detector located in the basement, one (1) smoke detector located on the first floor and one (1) smoke detector located on the second floor. Guardian was not present during the sales transaction between Ms. [redacted] and [redacted] and therefore was not privy to any additional recommendations made by the sales consultant at that time. To commemorate her decision to activate her existing devices Ms. [redacted] executed an Authorized Dealer Sales and Monitoring Agreement (“Agreement”) with [redacted] on November 23, 2010. That documentation served to memorialize the scope of work and services to be provided by [redacted] as it relates to the activation of her 24-hour monitoring services with Guardian. Additionally memorialized in her Agreement is the fact that Ms. [redacted] knowingly declined any additional components that were available to her through [redacted]; Ms. [redacted] acknowledged her decision in writing. Specifically, Ms. [redacted]’s Agreement expresses the following to which she provided her written acknowledgement: “(1) We have explained to you the full range of equipment and services available to you; (2) Additional equipment and services over that described herein are available and may be obtained from us at an additional cost to you; (3) You have chosen and have contracted for only the equipment and the services described in this Agreement.”
In her complaint, Ms. [redacted] expressed discontent that the configuration of her smoke detection devices did not meet the requirements of her local municipality. Respectfully, all documentation associated with Ms. [redacted]’s account indicates the scope of work was limited to monitoring the devices already existing in her home. There is no indication of any request at any time during her sales transaction or service period with Guardian whereby Ms. [redacted] has mentioned or requested evaluation of her home as it relates to her local municipality codes or requirements. Throughout her relationship with Guardian which began November 2010, there is no record of Ms. [redacted] voicing any concerns to Guardian regarding the configuration or operation of her system until January 2015 at which time she requested the installation of additional equipment.
Guardian’s position is that Ms. [redacted] was served in accordance with the highest standards of security monitoring and related services and at no time has Guardian failed to provide professional and expert services. In a show of good faith and to facilitate swift closure to this matter, Guardian has agreed to waive the balance on the account and has closed all related billing activity.
Thank you for allowing Guardian the opportunity to address this matter. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me directly at ###-###-####, extension [redacted].
Sincerely,
Bill [redacted], Manager

Dear Ms. [redacted]
Thank you for advising Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) of Mr. [redacted]’s complaint. Guardian values its...

customers and welcomes any opportunity to address a question or concern.
Upon receipt of your letter, Guardian immediately contacted Mr. [redacted]. During that conversation, Guardian’s representative explained that upon completion of the initial term the account renews on a month to month basis to avoid a lapse in services provided, which is why a 30-day notice to cancel is required. Notwithstanding, Guardian will accommodate Mr. [redacted]’s request to cancel the account effective April 20, 2016. The balance due on Mr. [redacted]’s account has been waived and upon cancellation he will receive no further billing statements from Guardian. Mr. [redacted] expressed his satisfaction with this resolution.
On behalf of Guardian, I would like to wish Mr. [redacted] the best and thank him for allowing Guardian to serve his security needs. Should he desire security services in the future, I hope he will consider Guardian.
Thank you for informing Guardian of this matter. Should you have any questions, please contact me directly at ###-###-####, ext. [redacted]

  Thank you for advising Guardian Protection Services, Inc. (“Guardian”) of the above-referenced matter. Guardian values the opportunity to provide response and address Ms. [redacted]’s concerns.    For background, Ms. [redacted]’s account came to Guardian by way of an authorized dealer of Guardian known as [redacted] Security Management, Inc.

Please note that [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 [redacted], including security evaluations, sales processes, installation practices or any other aspects of [redacted]’s business.   Ms. [redacted] has expressed dissatisfaction that monitoring services have not been transferred to her new home after relocating in May 2016 and has requested the cancellation of her account as a result. In an effort to assist in facilitating resolution, Guardian has provided a copy of the complaint to [redacted]. Upon receipt, [redacted] conducted a thorough review of Ms. [redacted]’s account and offers the following information in response.   On June 9, 2016, Ms. [redacted] informed [redacted] that she was moving from the monitored premises and wanted to relocate services. After further discussion, Ms. [redacted] indicated she wished to inquire if the new homeowners were interested in taking over services before she made a final decision to relocate.   Subsequently, [redacted] and/or Guardian left ten (10) voicemail messages for Ms. [redacted] between June 19, 2016 and July 26, 2016 asking that she return the telephone call and to inquire about the status of her relocation.    On July 28, 2016, Ms. [redacted] informed [redacted] that she had re-installed her security system and requested onsite service as the system was not working. [redacted] indicated that they would review available service dates and contact Ms. [redacted] later that day. (Please note, neither [redacted] nor Guardian have a record of completing relocation/reinstall of Ms. [redacted]’s system.)  Later that day on July 28, 2016, [redacted] left two (2) voicemail messages for Ms. [redacted] to schedule onsite service for either August 1, 2016 or August 2, 2016. A voicemail message was also left for Ms. [redacted] the following day on July 29, 2016. Ms. [redacted] returned [redacted]’s message on the afternoon of July 29, 2016. Unfortunately, by that time the August 1st service date was no longer available and Ms. [redacted] indicated she was unavailable on August 2nd.    Ms. [redacted] contacted [redacted] on July 30, 2016 to schedule onsite service. [redacted] informed Ms. [redacted] they would review the service schedule and contact her with available dates. [redacted] subsequently left a voicemail message for Ms. [redacted] offering to schedule onsite service for August 15, 2016.  Ms. [redacted] contacted [redacted] on August 11, 2016 and requested the cancellation of her account, further stating she would not agree to relocate monitoring services.   Based on the above information, [redacted] has informed Guardian that [redacted] respectfully declines to release Ms. [redacted] from her contractual obligation at this time. Should Ms. [redacted] wish to cancel her account, she will need to communicate directly with [redacted] related to that topic.    Alternatively, [redacted] has informed Guardian that [redacted] remains willing to schedule a technician to service Ms. [redacted]’s system as soon as possible. [redacted] is also willing to apply a credit to Ms. [redacted]’s account equal to three (3) months of monitoring services for the time in which she did not have service. Should Ms. [redacted] wish to contact [redacted], they may be reached at: [redacted] Security Management, Inc., [redacted].  Telephone: ###-###-####.   I am hopeful the above information has assisted to clarify this matter for all parties.

provide response and assist in facilitating resolution of her concerns. Ms. [redacted] has moved from the monitored premises and has disputed ongoing charges for services at that residence. Guardian has reviewed the subject account and offers the following information.For background, Mr. [redacted] executed an Interactive Upgrade Addendum (“Addendum”) with Guardian on February 18, 2015 to add interactive services, replace the control panel and install a smoke detector. The initial term of the Addendum is clearly defined as sixty (60) months. The hardware was provided and installed by Guardian at a deeply discounted rate in exchange for execution of the 60-month Addendum, with the expectation that Guardian would recover the out-of-pocket costs of the devices over the initial term. On June 30, 2016 with forty-five (45) months remaining in the initial term of the Addendum, Ms. [redacted] informed Guardian that she had moved from the monitored premises. In a genuine effort to assist Ms. [redacted] in fulfilling the terms of her Addendum, Guardian offered to transfer services to her new home or to a friend or family member. Guardian also explained that the new homeowners could activate services under a new Agreement for the remaining term which would release Ms. [redacted] from all remaining obligation.Guardian continued to reach out to Ms. [redacted] over the next year in an effort to assist her. Unfortunately, the parties were unable to reach a mutually agreeable resolution and the subject complaint followed.Upon receipt of your letter, Guardian reached out to Ms. [redacted] directly. During that conversation, Guardian’s representative explained that twenty-nine (29) months remain in the initial term of the Addendum and Guardian is unable to cancel the account without further payment. Notwithstanding, in a good faith effort to earn Ms. [redacted]s satisfaction, Guardian’s representative offered to transfer services to Ms. [redacted]s mother’s home and to waive the fees and contract extension normally required. Regretfully, Ms. [redacted] declined. Guardian’s representative explained that cancellation of the account during the initial term required an early termination fee. That amount is defined to be $750. Should Ms. [redacted] wish to cancel the account, she may do so by remitting the above amount. Alternatively, Guardian remains willing to work with Ms. [redacted] to transfer services as defined above. Thank you for providing Guardian the opportunity to address this matter.

response and clarify this matter for all parties. For background, Ms. [redacted] moved from her previous monitored home and transferred monitoring services to her new home in June 2016. Ms. [redacted] executed a Monitoring Agreement (“Agreement”) with Guardian on June 6, 2016 for the new monitored address. The initial term of the Agreement is designated as thirty-six (36) months. Ms. [redacted] acknowledged the term of the Agreement by placing her initials next to Section E which states, “The initial term of this Agreement is 36 months.” Ms. [redacted] also acknowledged the initial term by placing her signature at the bottom of the form. Ms. [redacted] was also provided with a “Notice of Cancellation” form at the time of sale which bears her signature. This form serves to document that Ms. [redacted] received three (3) full business days to review her transaction and contemplate her decision to engage Guardian for the initial term period. During that timeframe, Ms. [redacted] 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. Ms. [redacted] has asserted that she was unaware of the 36-month initial term of her Agreement until March 2017, nine (9) months following execution of the Agreement. Guardian has reviewed Ms. [redacted]’s account and has respectfully found Ms. [redacted]’s assertions to be false. On October 1, 2016, Guardian contacted Ms. [redacted] to follow up regarding the installation of the system in her new home. During this recorded call, Guardian inquired if Ms. [redacted] was satisfied with the technician, installation, equipment, etc. Ms. [redacted] expressed dissatisfaction with the 3-year term of her Agreement however stated she would recommend Guardian’s services to others.On March 17, 2017, Ms. [redacted] contacted Guardian to request the cancellation of her account. Ms. [redacted] further stated she was never informed of the new 36-month initial term and that she believed that only the remaining term from her previous home would be transferred to the new site. Guardian’s representative explained that new equipment was installed in her new home, and further explained that the 36-month Agreement term was the minimum term which could be offered to offset the cost of the new equipment. Ms. [redacted] requested that the initial term be lowered and Guardian’s representative explained that the term could not be adjusted. In April 2017, Guardian received a written request from Ms. [redacted] to cancel her account or waive the 36-month initial term. Guardian reached out to Ms. [redacted] and spoke with her directly on April 12, 2017. Guardian’s representative reiterated that the initial term could not be adjusted. Guardian received the subject complaint one month later. Upon receipt of your letter, Guardian spoke with the representative who handled the relocation transaction with Ms. [redacted]. Guardian’s sales representative recalled the transaction and confirmed that Ms. [redacted] was clearly informed at the time of sale that the initial term of the new Agreement would be 36-months. The sales representative further recalled that Ms. [redacted] requested that the new Agreement only reflect the remaining term from her previous location, however Guardian’s representative explained that the minimum term which could be offered is 36-months. Based on the above information, Guardian finds no evidence to support Ms. [redacted]’s assertion that she was unaware of the 36-month initial term at the time of relocation. Ms. [redacted] was verbally informed of the initial term by Guardian’s sales representative. Ms. [redacted] acknowledged the initial term by placing her initials on the Agreement next to Section E which clearly defines the term to be 36-months. Ms. [redacted] also acknowledged the initial term in a recorded call on October 1, 2016 during a telephone survey with Guardian.Should Ms. [redacted] wish to cancel her account at the present time, the terms of her Agreement state she may do so upon remittance of an early termination fee. That amount is designated to be $750. Accordingly, upon Guardian’s receipt of payment of $750, Ms. [redacted]’s account will be cancelled and she will be released from all remaining obligation. Thank you for providing Guardian the opportunity to address this matter. Should you have any questions, please contact me directly at ([redacted].
