EDitors UPDATE: Positive rating and recognition has been given to APX Alarm for its commitment to excellence in customer service.
Ripoff Reports discussions with the company have uncovered an ongoing commitment to total customer satisfaction. You can expect to have any questions or concerns that you have with them to be answered and resolved in a timely manner. They have shown us their customer service process, and it reflects a desire to serve customers, as well as fix problems.
The company's management specifically told us about how their job is to simplify lives and help people to live intelligently. The management really wants every person who buys a system to feel valued. The concern for each customer's experience starts at the top, and is reflected in the action of every employee they hire.
The company also works to monitor their sales and customer support calls to see how they can be improved. They use these calls as examples for employees in training. Currently, Vivint is working to make changes to their contracts to make things easier for their customers as they have found that many of their complaints stem from feeling misled or customers paid fees they did not feel they authorized.

APX ALARM In Provo Utah DOESN'T MONITOR THE ALARMS!!! Provo Utah
On January 20, 2008 at 10am the alarm in our house sounded. APX Alarm failed to recognize the alarm and made no effort to react to it by calling our house or emergency personnel. I am paying for the monitoring service but at this particular point in time APX was negligent and was not monitoring our premises. Because of this negligence, I no longer have the peace of mind that one would expect when purchasing an alarm monitoring service. The siren in our house was sounding for at least 10 minutes. Yet APEX did not call us. If criminals had broken into our home to steal or hurt us, they would have succeeded because even though the alarm would have sounded APX would not be monitoring and so the criminal act would have been executed. Everyone purchases the alarm monitoring systems for the peace of mind they're supposed to provide. Specifically alarm monitoring services are purchased because there is a contractual agreement that APX would perform the monitoring. They were not monitoring when my alarm went off, and in fact, I am the one that had to call them to notify them that the alarm had sounded and they were negligent. The alarm was extremely loud, yet APX did not receive the signal or so they say. The alarm went off for at least 10 minutes yet no reaction by APX. I do not trust the alarm monitoring capabilities of APX. Moreover I do not believe that APX would react to an actual security breach. If an actual security breach were to take place the hundreds of dollars that I am spending would do nothing to mitigate the risk of such a breach. This is NON-PERFORMANCE!!!!
Your Desired Resolution: I want APX to take their equipment and give me my money back. I paid for monitoring that I never received! It's obvious that APX is not reliable and it is impossible for them to prove to me that they would act responsibly in the future. Their tone is arrogant and there is no customer service orientation on the part of their staff. Based on their cleverly written contract, they think they've got everybody to the point that they have no obligations or responsibilities. That's how they act!!! This is not service - THIS IS A SCAM I remember I signed the contract. I was running on no sleep and I remember how bold the saleperson was. I should have known then.

Really?

So all you can do is complain, first of all I just want you to know that I have been in the Alarm industry for multiple years now, and all alarm systems are required to have a 4 minute timeout on the siren. Thus it is not possible for the siren to go off for that long. Maybe you were "running on no sleep" again (and for that matter they probably did call) Nonetheless, you should probably bring up your complaints or issues with faulty equipment with your company so they can at least try to resolve your concerns...
PS. It is also stated within your contract that it is your responsibility to test the alarm once a month.
