Phone calls to customer service took forever and requests for copy of my contract renewal took way too long for response. Like many people, I got rid of my land line to save money, but this caused my monthly rate to increase by MORE than what I was paying AT&T for the land line. VERY INFLEXIBLE working with me.
Description of Work: Knocked a hole in my wall and left my floor covered in debris and dust. Installed a control panel in my basement at eye level with sharp edges.

Response from Protection 1 Louisville
Dear [member name removed], I would like to thank you for allowing me the opportunity to address your concerns. Protection One Alarm Monitoring, Inc. (“Protection 1”) strives to provide an excellent standard of customer service and I am sorry if the level received was less than perfect. Careful review of account records do not indicate that these concerns were brought forth to Protection 1. Since Protection 1 was not notified, we were unaware that these concerns existed. Should any concerns still exist, I ask that you please contact us to discuss them. Again, we would like to thank you for sharing your concerns. If I may be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me. Respectfully, Rosalinda Hernandez Office of the CEO Direct: 316-352-2680 Fax: 316-352-2559 Email: rosalindahernandez@protection1.com

I WAS VERY SATISFIED. IT TOOK A LITTLE BIT LONGER THAN OTHER INSTALLATIONS, BUT IT WAS AN EXISTING SYSTEM THAT HAD TO BE UPDATED. WE LIKED THE COMPANY.
Description of Work: THEY INSTALLED AN ALARM THAT COVERS THE ENTIRE HOUSE.
