First Class

I have been a customer GCelectronics for over 40 years- long before Oliver took over the helm. It's easy to stay with him as he is personable, helpful, professional and caring.
Just had alarm serviced and old smoke alarm replaced at a very reasonable cost.
He's always at the end of the phone if needed and ready to help.
Cannot forsee a time I would use him. Thank you Oliver

Great service

Oliver recently came out to carry out the annual service on my alarm and setup the mobile app for us, he is always very friendly and professional. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for an alarm system!

Great Company

Oliver fitted an alarm for my son, he was professional and friendly, he arrived on time and did a great job. He even filled in the holes where he had removed the old alarm and left the house clean and tidy.
We have used Oliver for 10 years and he has always looked after us and been professional. Would recommend his company to anyone.

Annual Security System Service

My alarm system had the usual annual service this week. Oliver arrived on time and was very professional as always. The security camera system which he installed eight years ago is also still excellent. All is good for another year. Thank you.

prompt, polite & professional

My husband and I first needed GC Electronics due to accidental damage. Oliver has serviced our alarm ever since. When we replaced our old system Oliver explained our options clearly. We've always found Oliver prompt, polite & professional.

Oliver has looked after us since 2012, and is always available to chat to if we encounter a problem. We see him on an annual basis and is a pleasure to deal with, he is very professional and always has a smile - would highly recommend to all businesses and residential customers - 5 stars from Regional Paints Ltd.

Top-Class Service from GC Electronics - Trusted since 2015.

I first came across GC Electronics back in 2015 after moving into a new property that already had an alarm system installed. In my infinite wisdom, I thought I could get it working myself… cue a very loud and very persistent alarm sounding for what felt like forever. Thankfully, GC Electronics came highly recommended by others in the village, and I quickly understood why.

He arrived promptly, diagnosed the issue (which I had entirely created), and got the system back up and running smoothly. From that moment on, I made sure it was serviced annually, and it never let me down.

Fast forward to my current home, where I’ve continued to use his services without hesitation. He installed a brand-new alarm system that works flawlessly—no hiccups, no fuss, just reliable protection. What sets GC Electronics apart is not just the quality of the product, but the integrity behind the service. He’s always contactable, sticks to his word, and delivers exactly what he promises.

I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Honest, reliable, and consistently excellent—GC Electronics is a rare find in today’s world. Highly recommended.

Ajax bluetooth alarm, just the ticket

I had a problem with my existing alarm system which while it was fixable it wasn't really a viable option. I was provided with a variety of new options which could be installed immediately. This was done with speed and precision. The new system encompasses all the latest bluetooth technology and is so easy to use. We are very pleased with the end result.

G C Electronics

Oliver at G C Electronics has been servicing my old alarm system for years, he installed a new alarm and CCTV system for me years ago and services that annually. Oliver is punctual, helpful and completes the work quickly.

Would Not Recommend

Wouldn’t recommend. Equipment installed is good quality, until you have a problem. I found the customer service to be poor and Oliver was quite rude.

Alarm service

Had our alarm serviced today by Oliver, been really happy with service for many years , he has gone above and beyond in the past to help us out when we’ve had problems, also used by family members who are happy with service, reliable and trustworthy companies like this are not easy to come by.

Just had a new alarm fitted after a call out for a faulty old wired alarm. New alarm is brilliant and easy to use. Also fitted a camera doorbell that I had purchased at no extra charge. Punctual and left the house clean and tidy. Like the idea of having alarm and smoke alarms serviced annually.

Disappointed by GC Electronics

I had an alarm fitted by G C Electronics, and initially everything seemed fine. However, a year later the alarm stopped working, not due to a fault, but because they had deliberately set it to deactivate unless we paid for a service. What’s worse is that the service must be through them, as they hold the engineer code and refused to provide it when I asked. When I called to discuss this, they abruptly switched the phone to record without warning, which felt incredibly unprofessional.

This setup leaves customers trapped in a cycle of forced payments just to keep their system running. It’s a disappointing and manipulative business model designed to extract more money rather than provide genuine service. I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone looking for transparent and customer-friendly support.

Where to start with this one, not a word of complaint for over 3 years since your security system was installed!

You then decide to use an incompetent person to service your security system who clearly is not trained on how to program your professionally fitted system. I explained this on the call but you expected me to divulge our personal programming code potentially exposing all my 3000+ customers to have insecure security systems. No Way….

No alarm company EVER gives out a programming code as it compromises their security therefore allowing anyone to delete sensors from the system and potentially break into a premises without the alarm sounding!!

I take over other installers systems daily and I do not need their personal programming code as I am trained to re-program it if required.

I have 25 years in the industry owning my own successful business and have hundreds of satisfied customers. Even surviving two recessions and Covid19. You are typical uncaring and under qualified person expecting the whole world to bend over backwards to accommodate you & your own stupidity.

You spoke to me with total and utter disrespect & swearing when you called, which to me just shows how uneducated you are.

I am extremely hard working and helpful to my customers, as anyone reading this who knows me would already know.

I am re posting this to all YOUR three one star reviews you have put on here using different fake names and email addresses.

If I work out how, I am going to publish the recorded phone call where you can be heard swearing at me after I explained the situation regarding engineer codes.

Absolute crook and nasty with it

Absolute crook and nasty with it.
Oliver fitted alarms at both my mothers and daughters houses. He ties you into a service contract without telling you as he installs an engineer code which he refuses to give you. This means every 12 month you have to pay him (and him only) to service your alarm. When we called him he didn’t care and started recording the conversation because, as he says, he gets this a lot. Avoid at all costs.

Oh, by the way - he then sends aggressive and threatening responses to genuine customer complaints on Trustpilot. Copied and pasted from other customer feedback. Instead of retaliation to what is a consumer tool maybe he needs to address the poor treatment of his customers. If you don’t like the feedback, alter your behaviour and become a more transparent trader. You currently con elderly people into service contracts. Shame on you!!

DO NOT USE!!!

DO NOT USE!!!

Providing one star because I am unable to rate this company any lower.

I had an alarm fitted by Oliver at G C Electronics, which worked well, for 1 year before it stopped working. As it transpires, it now does not work because he has set the alarm to stop working unless it is serviced annually by himself.

He will not provide the master code required in order to get the alarm working again or serviced by any other company. This unethical and dishonest man has cornered people into only using his services and despite the alarm being my property, he has complete control over whether it works or not!

Currently seeking legal advice but would strongly advise to steer clear of his services!!
