Secural Security Services Not Secure with this Security Company Calabasas California

I contacted Secural in request of personnel to secure a large party I was hosting during the Holiday Season.  I spoke with A.J Scola regarding my party and my specific needs.  After reading a previous Secural report, left here on Ripoff Reports.com, I decided to do a little investigation of my own.  What I found was amazing which, lead to the conception of this report.

After researching Seural on line, I found the following information:

-Secural was established in 1976

-They are family owned and operated

-They are Ca. licensed and insured

-AJ Scola was the President of S.C.S.A. (Southern California Security Association)

-The Principals of the Corporation are currently State licensed

- An employee search done through the B.S.I.S. indicated the officers employed by Secural are currently Licensed.

This left me confused as the other report I found on Ripoff Reports.com contradicted my findings.  My next avenue of search was done personally through the S.C.S.A, the Lost Hills Sheriffs Department, and The City of Calabasas.  All of these organizations had nothing but great things to say about both Secural and AJ Scola. 

After I reviewed all of my findings I came to the conclusion that the previous report was either filled by a disgruntled employee or customer. I decided to take my chances and proceeded to sign contract with Secural for my event.  

The following occurred:

When: December 20, 20096:00pm

What: Private Holiday Party with over 183 guests, several guests being Actors

Where: Beverly Hills, 90210

I was contacted on 12/17 by AJ Scola requesting permission to visit the event location with his field Manager.  AJ reported back to me upon his findings and his concerns for the event security.  We discussed my options and decided on 6 uniformed Officers and 2 officers in black suits. On 12/19 Erin contacted me to confirm that Secural was ready and to ask of any last minute changes. On 12/20 at roughly 5:30pm I was invaded by a group of well dressed, well groomed, intimidating, Security officers.  I was dumbfounded to find that AJ came in a suit to personally supervise the crew of 8 Officers.  Each Officer was super polite they introduced themselves to me and we spent a better part of 10 minutes just talking. The party ended at 2:00am and Secural was on top of every incident that occurred.  I was so impressed by their professionalism and regard to safety that I booked Secural for this same party next year and two others.  

I feel for the person who wrote the bad report as I could never imagine something so far fetched ever happening.

It is against most state laws to allow persons to carry firearms who have not been licensed as security officers --- while they are in uniform.

It is also against the law to let people work for the agency who are not formally hired and do not have a license --an unarmed license.

It is against the law to not submit your employees applications to have a Complete Criminal History run on them and to be approved by the security guard licensing agency.

I can't believe the State of California allowed this idiot to have a license to operate a security company -- and he doesn't know the State rules and regulations.

Maybe he isn't licensed either.

California Bureau of Security and Investigative Services (BSIS) licenses security guard contracting companies which are called Private Patrol Operators:

A "private patrol operator" is a company that furnishes security guards, bodyguards, patrolmen, or watchmen to protect persons or property. .
