    I was awakened during the night with the console(?) chirping at me saying "Back Door Low Battery". When I contacted Vector to have this addressed, since I have NO idea how to change the battery without setting off the alarm, I was informed that the service call would cost about $200+ plus dollars! The technician can do a courtesy call and will present other plans that would include the cost of future battery changes. I'm a retiree, living on a fixed income and struggling to pay medical bills after recently getting out of the hospital. My pension just cannot stretch that far! There has to be better arrangements for people in my situation.

    Vector Security provided security service at our previous residence in South Carolina. We moved 11/17/14. We contacted Vector to advise of the move. Phone service was disconnected, so the alarm service was no longer functioning. I have received confirmation that they have verbal notification of cancellation, January 2015. Realizing that an infrequently used credit card has continued to incur monthly Vector Security charges, we contacted our local Vector branch 2/15/16. No return call. Called again 2/16/16, was told that I would have to speak to a manager 2/17/16, but in the meantime he sent an email with written cancellation instructions. We submitted email cancellation as instructed. Called 2/17/16 and spoke to manager Sherry. She confirmed verbal cancellation 1/15, email cancellation 2/16.

    She confirmed that there has not been any security service provided since 11/14 without corresponding phone service/signal. Sherry insisted that I would need to provide written proof of cancellation from 1/15 in order for her to process any refunds. As cancellation was presumed from over a year ago, we no longer maintain any records from our Vector Security account. If we were advised to send written cancellation, we presumably did. We feel that we have been defrauded 12-months of non-existent security service. If written cancellation was not received by Vector, yet they are aware service was no longer being provided, why did Vector not provide any follow-up communication?

    Although we live in a relatively safe neighborhood, two years ago we decided to look into getting a security system. Unfortunately, we live across the lake from the murder capital of this country, New Orleans, Louisiana. Prior to installing Vector Security System in our home, we purchased a 38 cal. handgun. We thought that would be enough to make us feel safe. However, my husband and I, could never sleep through the night with peace of mind. We were always hearing sounds that left us scrambling for our weapon, which in most cases turned out to be false alarms. In one instance though, I returned home alone one night and heard a loud crashing sound coming from the attic and had to call 911. Needless to say, we still had no peace of mind.

    Since we have installed the system, we feel totally secure, in that we know our alarm will sound in the event someone beaches our doors or windows and coming home alone is much less scary now. In short, installing Vector alarm system was the best move we have ever made and have recommended it to all of our family and friends.

    I have had a bad experience with this company. After leaving ADT after years of increasing rates, we decided to go with this company upon purchasing our second home. The first few months were great but I began to notice my alarm would get triggered but we never received a phone call to verify if we were home or that everything was ok. Then I called to request service because the deadbolt/keypad system they installed stopped working, so I couldn't secure my front door. The soonest they stated that they could come out was in two weeks! I am locked into a contract with them and the good part is that I am an active duty service member and I will be moving and will be done with their contract. I will never use this company again and I have recommended other security companies to my neighbors. It may just be the service center I'm connected to in Aiken, SC, but they have ruined it for me.

    My mother is an 84 year old Dementia patient and also seriously ill. After many years with doing business with your company, paying on time through bank draft, she had to stop her service due to the extremely high cost of her meds. I called Vector, explained the problem and they stopped the bank draft and gave instructions for me to follow to stop the service. I followed their instructions verbatim.

    The following month, she received an invoice. I called and explained the situation and that I had faxed and mailed the letter to stop the service. I was told this would be taken care of. This continued for many months. Finally, I stopped calling because I do not have time to fix Vector's in house problem. I am taking care of a very sick parent. Last week, we received a collection letter. It is not fair for my mother to have a blemish against her credit due to Vector's error. Hoping you can help.

    The customer service rep did not tell the technician to take enough sensors so that all could be replaced. The technician had just one working replacement sensor with him. He stated that the other two existing sensors of the same age as the failed one needed to be replaced ASAP. I called immediately to schedule a return visit. To my dismay the customer service rep insisted that she could not schedule a visit unless the other sensors already had failed. I was irritated and said that all should've been replaced. She reluctantly went ahead and scheduled another visit. And GUESS WHAT HAPPENED at 2:00 AM this morning??! Sure enough, one of the two remaining old sensors triggered the alarm. I had a similar experience with Vector over battery replacement several years ago. Vector needs to focus more on prevention/avoidance rather than fixing-after-the fact. This is not acceptable customer service!

    Sales and installation no issues. Customer service was ok - the process to get a service appointment was slow the first call I made so much so I had to abandon the call. The process of changing what's on the service ticket after you've got a ticket in process shouldn't take so long. From a value proposition, at 50 a month in monitoring fees, and a prospective service plan cost of 180 a year additional is excessive.

    A one time visit costs 109 and there have been years I've not needed a visit from Vector so spending 180 makes no sense. The visit charge is excessive and doesn't cover any time spent. Most utilities/services (plumber, phone, Sears maintenance) have lower visit fees and include the first 30 min for as part of the service call charge. I wouldn't even require a visit if the product sold to me allowed for a faulty alarm to be pulled out of the alarm system remotely or direction provided to do so from the panel. There are redundant detectors on every floor and I could live without one functioning. Instead I have to have a technician come out. It's this sort of thing encourages me to shop around for other monitoring and service providers as I have no contract preventing me from moving. Vector you are too expensive for what you are providing.
