Vector Security - Buyer Beware Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania

Think long and hard--and read ALL fine print--before you sign on with Vector Security Company. I will list three reasons for this warning:

1) After an initial 3-year commitment when signing up, Vector will automatically renew your contract IN THREE-YEAR INCREMENTS without your acknowledgement. Good luck trying to break free.

2) If you succeed in escaping Vector, your alarm system equipment (which you purchased) will be useless since Vector will not supply the panel code to you or to another security company. You will have to purchase new electronic panels to even have prayer at making your system work without Vector.

3) Customer service is erratic. Occasionally, you will reach a kind and helpful human being (be sure to get their name). Other times you can be assured to get less than cordial treatment. Likewise, the information given is ridiculously inconsistent. Useful information (usually obtained from the kind humans) is balanced by incorrect or no information by the less courteous reps.

Take your time choosing a security company. Ask questions and get everything in writing. In particular, that is true for the contract renewal policy.
