Excellent Service

Asked for my annual maintenance check to take place a few weeks earlier than last year, and was given a suitable timeslot very quickly. The engineer who came (Dan) was exceptionally good - a great ambassador for Big Brother. He serviced my alarm, pinpointed a problem with my CCTV and executed an effective fix straightaway.

Engineer whom we had not seen before…

Engineer whom we had not seen before gave us sufficient warning to book parking. The maintenance was carried out efficiently and in a friendly and helpful manner. Took slightly longer than usual because he had to make two trips back to his vehicle, first to get mask and then to get more batteries. I was especially pleased that he took the time to replace the batteries on the keyfobs which is tricky to do.

Poor value for money

Engineer was polite and did his job, but was unable to fix our security lights (two of which have broken) which Big Brother will charge us for separately. 3 were installed at the same time by them and 2 have stopped working. Overall value for money from Big Brother is however terrible, with very unreliable system and poor customer service.

We are sorry that on this occasion you have not been happy with the service provided.
Unfortunately, we are unable to provide services for free to clients and systems that are well outside of their warranty period.
Despite this, our engineer attempted to assist you with your issue and was unable to do so within the timescale allocated for your appointment.
Whilst it is disappointing to receive a negative review from a client that has remained with us since 2018, we understand that clients will usually take the time to leave a negative review due to money before leaving a positive one when they have received a good service.

Good Company to Deal With

I had my alarm system & CCTV set up around 6 years ago with Big Brother. Never really had any major issues and every time I booked new jobs they are always professional and efficient in the office and home visits.

Happy I went with them.

Great

I have used Big Brother now for varying jobs spanning over different large residential sites and have always found them to provide an efficient and professional service. All the engineers have been a pleasure to have on site, polite and tidy. Look forward to working with you in the future.

Very efficient and friendly service!

I contacted Big Brother All Security with an alarm query and they responded within a couple of hours. They provided me with two reasonable quotations and a date for the job to be completed.
I asked if they were able to complete the work sooner than the date I had been allocated and although they were very busy, they managed to visit my property and service my alarm a week earlier than planned. The engineer was friendly and knowledgeable. My experiences with this company have always been positive. Thank you!

Long term customers, very happy.

We've been customers since 2015, and have always been happy with their responsiveness and service. We've used them for CCTV, burglar alarm, and ongoing maintenance and been pleased throughout. Dwayne has done regular service checks for years, and installed a burglar alarm for us recently, and is a thorough professional. They are very respectful, tidy, and take the time to teach you how to use the system well.

Excellent service and knowledgeable engineer

We had excellent service from BBS earlier in the year when our security system developed a fault.
The engineer who called knew immediately what the problem was and fixed it rapidly.
He inspected the system and advised us on improvements we should make, explaining the reasons for them. He advised us to take out an annual contract which gives us peace of mind.

He immediately contacted the office who sent us a quote for the recommended improvements and registered us for an annual contract.

Owing to COVID restrictions, the appointment to install the improvements was postponed for several months. I requested a specific engineer as he clearly understands the system and had given us excellent service.
BBS arranged for the same engineer to call at the appointed time. He arrived punctually and discussed with us at the beginning of the visit what was to be done. He very efficiently completed the job within a reasonable time, tested the whole system and patiently talked us through the operational details.

We would recommend BBS to people in the area

Speedy Service and rest of Burglar Alarm

On Thursday my alarm would not reset and said it needed servicing. The property needs to be alarmed 24/7 I rang Big Brother in the afternoon and received an appointment in the following morning. The engineer called me one hour before he was due, which gave me time to get there and completed the service and reset satisfactorily

This is the worst company I’ve ever had…

This is the worst company I’ve ever had to deal with agnostic of product. Completely useless! I bought an alarm from them and it went faulty in just over a year. Which meant I had to buy a full new motherboard. Every time something goes wrong they do everything in their power to get a fee out of you by saying you need a call out which they charge an astronomical amount for. The fitting was very shoddy. Wires all over the place and not neatly put together. The alarm is a cheap product from China and I paid just under £1000 and I really regret not going with a branded company like banham.

Not a helpful company!! Avoid at all cost.

If you don’t want the headache of this companies product take my advice and don’t use them. Spend a bit extra and go for banhan

Dear Mr Umeria

I am sorry that you have not been happy with our services on this occasion.

We always find it disappointing when a long standing client decides to leave a negative review because they are unable to make payment for services which aren't free. However, aren't as quick to leave a positive review after they have had a system installed since 2014 without any issues and have had work carried out for them for free despite being outside of their warranty.

In regards to your issues, you have a WIRELESS Intruder Alarm, so the cables you are referring to must be from another company.
Despite the size of your property, the alarm system used was one of our cheaper ranges to accommodate your budget, nonetheless, still adhered to British Standards and was a Graded Alarm.
The reason you required an engineer to attend your property was because you are not a trained engineer and to resolve your issues, you require a trained professional. The attendance is either chargeable or covered under a Service Agreement. As your budget did not extend to a Service Agreement, a fee was chargeable.

Unfortunately, we are unable to work for free.

I would highly recommend Big Brother...

I would highly recommend Big Brother All security. They have a very helful team and they are vey good at providing a step by step guide when it comes to using the alarm or any other services. Dwayne and Eddy were especially helpful as they anwered all our questions and relieved my mum of her security concerns.
Thank you very much.

Recently had my alarm system installed

Recently had my alarm system installed. The installation was professional and respectful of my home. Engineers were patient with me as they introduced me to the new technology, didn't matter how many times they had to go over the information. Didn't make me feel silly... thank you. I have no reservations about recommending them to anyone.
