I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.  However, they are not telling you the whole story.  They offered me a new system for a fee, not free but to extend my existing contract.  They said the system was out of warranty and the sensors were not free either.  The email contract I originally agreed to was lengthy and I did not feel a need to read the entire contract because I was trusting the integrity of the representative I spoke with.   I will accept this offer and hope no one has to go through the same issue as I have.  Next time I will be sure to read the fine print.    
Regards,
[redacted] Jr.

 Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because: The business, Lifeshield security, did not address the main issue in their response.  They did not admit that at 8AM, they turned on a loud alarm on our security system in order to collect a $30 fee that was due for August. The alarm woke us up and scared us, because we did not know why the alarm was going off.  We could not turn off the alarm.  Lifeshield left the alarm on until I called and paid them a $30 fee for August. Lifeshield did not try to call me on the phone before they used our security system to scare us and disrupt the peace of our home.  If they had called me, I would have immediately corrected the expiration date on the [redacted] card.  In fact, before they used our security system against us, I had already logged into my account and corrected the expiration date.I believe their abuse of our security system was an illegal tactic to collect a debt.  I want a statement from Lifeshield saying they will not use this outrageous extortion tactic on other customers.

LifeShield contacted its engineering department to verify the problem. The solution to this customer's issue was to significantly reduce camera session time therefore eliminating the possibility of getting into...

someone else’s camera.  LifeShield's engineering has tested this issue repeatedly for over a week and have not been able to reproduce the issue since the change.  A LifeShield customer service representative has reached out to the customer and left her a message stating the issue has been resolved, as wells his direct number for her to call him back if she wants to discuss further.
LifeShield also offered to let customer out of contract as a courtesy if customer was unhappy and wanted to go elsewhere. Customer declined this offer.
We consider this issue closed.

LifeShield has cancelled this customer's account and the payment of $39.98 has been refunded to the customer. There will be no more charges to this debit account.

Hello,
Even though we stated the reduction in a dollar amount in our previous message, Ms. [redacted] claims we did not offer her a discount in a certain dollar amount. We will be more than happy to offer her $10.00 (ten dollars) off her monthly monitoring fee for each of her home security systems.
You can find our previous message copied below. We are hoping Ms. [redacted] will accept our offer and contact us regarding this issue.
Our previous message:
"Hello,
Our customer representative offered Ms. [redacted] to lower each of her systems' monthly bills by $10 (which is a 25% reduction in total). However, we were not able to get a hold of Ms. [redacted] and she did not return our call. We will be more than happy to offer her this reduction to her again when she contacts us."

[redacted]We apologize for the oversight.  Your checks were not being posted to your account.  This has been rectified and your are up to date with payments.  Your next bill is due on 8/23/2015.RegardsLifeShield Security

[redacted],  I apologize for the frustration you have experience trying to cancel your account.  Your account has now been cancelled.  Your account was owned by one of our partners and this situation will be addressed with them.    LifeShield Security

 Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:
Contrary to what they said, I was "persuaded" to install myself because it is suppose to be so easy.  The guy did tell me, after I tried to install myself and I still needed installation, it was available.
The equipment has been in the box since I purchased it, money being wasted.
Regards,
[redacted]

Hello,Upon the customer's initial complaint, the original call was pulled and listened. In the call, customer was told to write to the contract review board about the request, however, nothing was guaranteed to cancel or stated that the customer could definitely cancel without an early...

termination fee when the customer's company provides home security services. Regarding the early termination fee, the customer was told that it would be less with a shorter term length. The customer's call back request was fulfilled, however, a voice mail was left for the customer on 02/27. When LifeShield received a call from the customer on 04/06, the customer was advised the call details. The customer was offered $10 off of his monthly bill for 24 months for customer satisfaction which he declined. Unfortunately, Mr. Flowers is not eligible to cancel his service without the early termination fee.

On 06/02, LifeShield agreed to cancel [redacted] account with no further...

charges due and the account was cancelled with no early termination fee. We apologize for the inconvenience caused and hope that [redacted] is satisfied with the resolution of this matter. Thank you,Cansu
