Natural born skeptic is a believer in Montain Alarm We hoped for the best with our first alarm service they exceeded that hope every step of the way That is the salesman was polite, professional, and knowledgeable. The installer was timely and competent follow up service calls we made to the alarm center were handled patiently as we worked our way through learning the system. They get my stamp of approval.

Once they got here, they did good My initial interaction with Mountain Alarm was very positive. Sales person responded to my initial request within a day. Since then, I have had to follow up a few times to get work scheduled. When they arrive, they do good work and I believe I will get good service in the future. I have had trouble knowing who to contact for what and am still waiting on a couple of responses to inquiries/requests. I have been told the last couple of months have been extraordinarily busy for the company. I can understand that, but not why I do not get responses to emails and calls.

Timely response and very good monthly rate. I switched from ADT to Mountain Alarm at approx. 1/2 the monthly rate and no switchover cost. Service was prompt and very courteous and they have a local office if I ever need them. The only minor glitch was I haven't yet received an e-mail confirming my no-rate-increase-for-three-years guarantee.

Very poor customer service Very poor customer service. The staff will say anything (including the owner R. Garner) to make a sale. When it comes time to ending or canceling the service they are no where to be found. I do not trust these folks, nor do I recommend them. Teresa Gonzales is the most inept customer service manager I have come across. She will not return a call, she too will say anything, and the cancelation policy needs to be pulled out of her. Then she pretends like she doesn't hear my confirmation to end the service. Her lack of skill emanates in all the customer service workers. What a piece of work.

Problems arise, it's how they're handled. The previous company who installed a system for us came out and installed the system, for the most part, then didn't show us how to use it, but instead, handed us a DVD to watch and rushed off. They gave us some sort of remote device to use for the boat but didn't tell us how to use it. Our rep made sure everything was done to our satisfaction and that before she left we had been instructed on how to use the system. We recently encountered a problem, with the main panel falling off the wall. Upon calling, a technician showed up the next day and did a temporary fix saying he would order a new panel and would be out to install it as soon as it came in. The system is very easy to use. Fortunately, I cannot speak as to how responsive the company is in the event of an emergency.
