    I forgot his name, but the man I spoke with was extremely helpful. He was thorough, checked all avenues, and solved the problem in a timely manner. When I heard we would need another box, I thought, "Oh no, we can't afford that." But he said he would send the repeater free of charge. (That was music to my ears!) I am extremely satisfied with LifeShield and all of the services I have received from them thus far.

    When I call customer support for technical issues, they are very helpful. The response center was also helpful when my alarm went off. Kind enough to remain on the line. I gave 4 stars because my alarm has went off twice for no reason. The first time, the response center did not get the signal. I had to call 911 on my own. There was no weather problems or any other explanation found as to why it went off. I set if off myself once because I did not disarm in time and could not disarm using the console or the key fob. I had to remove the battery from the alarm unit.

    I had the system installed in June. I called three times to have the security system "activated" so we would receive our "armed certificate". The system was not made active until July 31st but I was charged the full price for June AND July even though my house was not "protected" by Lifeshield during those months. They so graciously gave me a ONE month credit for the TWO months I was not active. Also, in July, I had to have the back door sensor replaced as it failed to work. In August, I had to have the fire sensor replaced. I also had to have a "repeater" sent to my house because tech support said I was too far away from a cell tower to receive signal. I live two and a half blocks from a cell tower. When I told the girl from tech support that, she proceeded to tell me it was my cable connection failing to work. I have Time Warner Cable which is the best internet company in my area.

    My daughter came home late one night and set off the alarm for a good 5 minutes before we were able to shut it off, in that time, no one called or showed up at my door. Not central station, not the police. Had it been an actual break in, my family would be dead. At least one piece of equipment stops working daily and sadly, I

    am not exaggerating. I have to call tech support one to two times a week. They offered to credit my account for October and then charged me anyway. When I called to have the charges reversed, I was told that they would just apply my credit to November instead. When I insisted they just reverse the charges, I was told I am owed NOTHING. They said their engineering department gave them a report stating my system has been fine since June. Yet, I have screen shots from all the times the app showed the cameras failing, the base offline, the fire sensor offline, and the repeater with a low battery from the first day it was plugged into the wall.

    My daughter also has video on her phone from the night the alarm went off because even though I was extremely irate, she found the whole situation hilarious. When I said that I want to cancel my service they told me that I would have to pay the early termination fee for breaking contract, but I ask you... Is it breaking contract if the contract is for a service I am not receiving? So while I pursue a legal suit against this unethical company, I send a WARNING to anyone out there considering their services... THEY DON'T PROVIDE SERVICES BUT THEY WILL HAPPILY TAKE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY!

    I have called on several occasions and the response has been very informative and helpful. Initially, I had to return console, remote and camera because they did not work. New ones were shipped to previous address, so this delayed installation. I also got different responses on how to return shipment and was told that I would be charged if they did not receive non-working items.

    If I could give it -5 I would. This company is horrible. I was charged $450 by my city from false alarms that I didn't know was happening until I got the bill in the mail. LifeShield let a customer get repeated false alarms over the span of 2 weeks without even checking up to see what was going on. So not only let me be charged that they also will not let me out of my contract unless I pay them $500. WTF. They don't care about their customers. They just want your money.

    My smoke detector went off. When we didn't get a call from LifeShield and we showed that there was no alarm event on the website I called. When the service rep was going through things she said something to the effect that our smoke detection system was "turned off" on their end. I'm not sure exactly what that means but it doesn't make me feel safe. LifeShield replaced the smoke sensor but will probably not keep the system once our contract is over. To get our smoke detector turned off my husband had to destroy our detector so it was activated longer than a false alarm would have been. Problem was with LifeShield sensor. Does not make me feel safe at all. I was discounted one month's service. Not sure how long that part of the system was non-functional as functionality was/is to be monitored by LifeShield.

The constant issue is always my back door, but the issues have been faulty alarm alerts when the back door sensors reads open after I have left the house, fire sensor being placed by base and when alarm goes it also triggers the fire alarm and the fire department and police department show up at my house. They moved the fire sensor and when they did they pulled down drywall with it, they had me upgrade my internet speed to find out the first installer hooked up the modem and router wrong.

    Do not go for this system. DIRECTV has not trained their technicians to install. The first attempt they showed up 1.5 hours AFTER my 4-hour appointment window. Finally about 10 p.m. I kicked them out of my house because they were complaining I had not registered. I set another appointment and again, they called near the end of the appointment window without time to install it. Next appointment, the guy worked for 4 hours and left without finishing the job because he could not register the equipment.

    Finally I set another appointment, receive a call they are on their way between 9:10 and 9:40 and they never showed. It wasn't until I called to find out they listed it as "on hold" but THEY NEVER CALLED TO SAY THEY WEREN'T COMING. 4 tries and counting. Horrible Experience. Horrible experience with poor and abusive and customer service. Avoid this alarm system, DIRECTV and AT&T. Calling charter to see how they can help. Internet service is spotty as well as phone service.

    My greatest frustration is the complete lack of concern you show for long established customers. Happy customers are supposed to be your best marketing tool. Why do you ignore us? Further, the world has evolved greatly since Ingrid first introduced its systems some ten years ago. The world is now awash in security systems, many with greater features and also home automation components. Standing still in the current marketplace is virtually admitting defeat. You spend too much redoing over and over your website. The one you had in 2009 was better than the several since. How many customers actually use your site to find weather? (The same weather that still does not display properly on the console.) Or use your bogus crime maps?

    And who was the genius that decided to change the technology such that all equipment prior to 10/2/14 is obsolete? Was it the same guy who chose to get rid of telephone handsets? Hope for your collective sake that AT&T can either clean up the mess you have made of this business or end it quickly. Slow death of a business is very painful for all.

    I got a "system disconnected" indication when I tried to arm my system via Android app early Saturday morning. After 15-20 minutes of researching online for info concerning this error, and checking my system for problems (finding none), my system started working, and armed properly. I called mid-Saturday morning to ask if there were any LifeShield system problems which would have caused my problem. The young lady that I spoke with was kinda hard to understand because of her poor English pronunciation, but she insisted that my broadband was down during the time that I was having the problem. I am a retired computer/network professional, and I tried to explain to her that my broadband was never in question, as I logged in via the LifeShield android app to get the error, and used Google search to find what the error meant. She still insisted that my broadband was the problem.

    I then asked if there was someone that she could check with to ask if there were any LifeShield server problems at the time of my error. She put me on a short hold, to return and confirm my suspicion. A supervisor informed her that the server was undergoing some maintenance at the time of my problem that would have caused me to get the disconnected indication. This support call could have been eliminated by a blast email alerting users of server maintenance that might cause systems being disconnected. In lieu of an alert email, the call could have been shorter, and more pleasant by having a more knowledgeable support person, that understood the system better, and was up to date on possible outages, rather than just reading from a script. Not all users that call in are stupid. Often times, the user is more knowledgeable than the support person!

He is sending the order - per my acct - at no charge, followed by a confirmation e-mail to ensure no cost & correct items being shipped. He was a prime example of why I have stayed with LifeShield.

    The upgrade for my system went just fine yesterday. Joshua was extremely courteous and professional and we could not have had a better installation! I am disappointed that our garage sensor is not in range and I do wish that Joshua was aware of your 'repeater' device that may have solved this issue and now we have to purchase this expensive item. Joshua did, however, warn us in advance about the connectivity issues with the garage distance, so we did have a heads up. If he were aware that perhaps this device may have resolved the issue, would I have been charged for the 'repeater'? Nonetheless, superb work and a fantastic technician! Humble regards.

    Reviewed Aug. 26, 2015

    For many months now, since I decided to use Lifeshield Security services to protect my home, I experienced too many false alarms and equipment failure. Even so, I bought additional equipment that included a blast detector, cellular gateway, two cameras, additional motion sensors, but to no avail. The local police kept responding to "false alarms" that I was warned to a possible $125 fine if it continued. I worked tirelessly with your technical support team for hours on end trying to fix the problems without positive solutions.

    We signed up for LifeShield Security system thru DirecTV. This is the WORST system. Every week, since installation there has been an issue with either a window sensor, door sensor or camera not working. We have spent countless hours on the phone with them trying to resolve the issues. Technicians have been out to our house every other week to fix problems. Today a technician tried for 4 hours to get a camera working to no avail. When I tried to cancel due to very poor service, they are still trying to make me pay a cancellation fee. I highly recommend not purchasing this system!

    I've had my LifeShield acct for just over 2 weeks; I had an issue with 1 of my sensors & they sent someone out to fix within 3 business days. I love the app; it helps me monitor my house easily while I'm away.
