Armguard Security & Patrol

Steve is a thief. He continued to charge our credit card after we gave him proper cancellation notice. DO NOT SIGN UP WITH ARMGAURD.

Be very careful of Steve Ghermezian, very unethical business practice. Armguard the worse security company to do business with. Very difficult to cancel and get out of contract with this company they are crooks!

This company have few location Run by same owner in my opinion
Visit their Unilocal at Glendale Location
Do not Trust Steve at Armguard ‚
I signed a Contract when I moved to new office in Burbank CA
2 – 3 years in to this contract I felt this part of city is very save and I like co cancel my Contract if Possible
I contact the Burbank Agent steve and he told me the best option is to move the equipment to my residence for the remaining of this 5 years contract and i took the Bite
He did not revise the contract But write up a New and told me (DONT WORRY I WILL TALK TO THE OWNER MR ALI IN FEW DAYS TO CANCEL THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT
Without me Knowing —-He Binded me with two Contracts
Traust the Man for his word? BIG MISTAKE FOR ME
I called many times after that day for about one year and he had excuses of being busy with other things and i was making payment only for 1 address
But one day I decide to call Because my contract is coming to the end and I like to wrap it up forever
Same Sales person tells me BUT YOU HAVE TWO CONTRACTS WITH US
I hanged up the phone and think of something to fight back
First i was thinking to file a case in court, But he was right and i have 2 contracts in hand
Now to everyone who is reading this and not happy with company This is my Gift to you

I was trying to find any place I could say about this crazy company for a long time, and so glad that it was not only me. This company is Fraud! Fraud! Fraud!!! Especially the man, Steve is one of the worst man I ever experienced !! He tricked the contract and made me to pay extra money for more than a year. And he tried to get more money from me even he removed the entire system. I think he is insane. I think he regarded customers as FOOLS!!! He called me so many times and yelled me if I refused his asking to continue the fraud contract even after the system was already removed !! It was so stressful and he did not stop annoying me until I decided to take legal action against the company. I was going to take a legal action against him and the company if I received just one more call or just one more fraud bill. This company has to be reported as a fraudulent business and people have to know about this. Please DO NOT INVOLVE WITH THIS COMPANY!!! STAY AWAY IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE ANNOYED AND SPEND MONEY IDLY !!!

A fraudulent business… the owner Steve Ghermezian is a crook. After 10 years of paying every month, we decided to cancel the service… but then the nightmare started. Steve, the owner, refuses to remove the alarm system after cancellation, and doesn’t allow other people to touch it, threatening to charge the full price of the entire system. In these 10 years there was no maintenance, no check-​ups, nothing… there were false alarms every once in a while, including when I was overseas on a vacation twice which ruined everything.
In summary, stay as far away as possible as you can from Armguard, Steve will overcharge you for everything, his technicians are unskilled and unprofessional, and later when you decide to remove the system, he will refuse to do it. Not to mention, he is a very rude person.

Fraud Alert *****
Dont use this company! I paid a $ 149 termination fee and they wont stop billing me. I called Steve and he just shines me on. He has told me no fewer than 10 times hes taking care of it but hasnt.
These guys including Steve are scam artists!

Worst company!!! There are constant problems with false alarms! They are extremely unorganized and constantly make mistakes. The company doesn’t care at all about customer satisfaction and it’s impossible to get out of their 3 year contract! Do not install their security system!

worst company ever! i worked for them for 3 years and they gave a 25 cent raise after 6 months before i QUIT… worst security company! WORST… thats all i can say, they are stingy, the clothing they provide is not maintained. they dont even care if their employees have licenses or not. they hire people who cant even speak english. Finally i can say i will never affiliate with these people again.

*******************************
AVOID THIS COMPANY.
*******************************
Money hungry I would say. Steve who is the OWNER of this «company». Is the most Arrogant, bitter man I have ever met.
The only thing good this man has are his Technicians. Friendly, professional, and knowledgeable.
I can’t wait for my contract to be over with this SCAM of company.
PLEASE AVOID!!!
These people DO NOT HONOR «CONTRACTS»
Hidden fees EVERYWHERE.
MARK MY WORDS…
Stay away!!!
You sign you will regret it…

This company is FRAUD. I have been trying to cancel our service for over a year now, and i have written a letter as they requested, and they have not done anything, and they are still charging our account. I continuously call to get a hold of the company, and they do not answer any calls or return calls. all calls are answered by an answering service and they are helpless.
AVOID!!!

BUYER BEWARE! We hired them to install security system and had constant problems with false alarms. We tried to bypass the motion detectors but the system would not allow us to. They sent techs out and changed some components but the problems continued with false alarms and we were billed for over $ 200 bucks from SMPD. We finally stopped using it except for when on vacations or away from home overnight. On each and every one of these occasions we had false alarms again. We stopped using it altogether and after a couple years of this finally notified them that we were canceling service. The immediately became the most mean spirited and vindictive people you could ever know. We received harassing phone calls, numerous invoices for absurd amounts and then threatening letters from some law firm that has offices all over US but mysteriously has no website. I urge anyone to steer clear of this company.

Stay away from this security so called company… We have signed up for home security services and cancelled a year later (because of the contract). However, they continued to bill and renew contract every year. We haven’t been using the alarm for the past 2 – 3 years if not more because we got tired of the false alarms and police fees. For the past few years, we have been trying to have them come and pick-​up their equipment but they don’t because they want to renew contract every year. What a screw up company!!! We have sent them numerous certified letters telling them to stop billing as we don’t use the services and to come and pick-​up their equipment… This is yet to happen. And, on top of all these, we get a letter from a «Yale Attorney Service» demanding a payment in the amount of $ 3500.00… ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!! Stay away from this company and BE AWARE!!!

I was looking for guard service and these guys came up but Can’t find a alarm company license or a private patrol operators license for this company! beware!

We are going to have to take some legal action against this company. Like the other reviewer, they continued to try to charge us after we sold the house and moved. They have not responded to SIX years of efforts to communicate with them and have now filed a collection claim against us for many thousands of dollars. We intend to fight this out and expose them for the dishonest business they are.

Years ago, i had them install an alarm in my house. It never worked properly resulting in four consecutive false alarm invoices from the LAPD (for $ 90 ea). Any attempt to recover from Armguard was fruitless. They told me that spiders walking in front of the motion sensor could set them off. (are you serious??).
well, i yanked the cord out of the wall more than five years ago, replaced the broken system that was indicating an alarm went off with a better system from a private contractor. it works fine.
Armguard sends me invoices every year wanting their monitoring money. The contract expired years ago. they just keep sending invoices. I faxed them cease and desist, but every year i get a letter. Whatever. This year, i made the mistake of calling to clear it up and the same jacka$$ that caused all this anguish picked up the phone and threatened to take me to collections. He also wants his equipment back.
come and get it big boy…
