Poor technical support
Poor technical support, never turn up when agreed, don’t understand the system, take days sometimes to fix issues. At best platitudes and apologies but no solutions or compensation. My friend has the same system with a different supplier and has not had a support issue yet

Excellent engineering visit.
The engineer turned up on time, was polite and very respectful. He was very thorough and efficient, taking time to explain things and answer any questions we had. Probably the best visiting engineer we have had since the system was installed.

The Engineer was very thorough
The Engineer was very thorough and continued to try to find a solution to the problem. However, he was unsuccessful as the Secom office was unable to find or reset the password remotely.

Good morning
We appreciate your feedback and are sorry the engineer couldn't resolve the password issue. As this was a maintenance engineer, a free of charge call has been arranged for a reactive engineer to attend on 22nd PM and reset the password.

Hi Mr Pollock
Thank you for your review and for the wonderful feedback about our engineer which will be passed on.
We understand your frustration regarding the 9-hour arrival window. While we were advised that you were available at any time on the agreed date, for future maintenance visits, we can absolutely offer you a more specific AM slot (between 8:30 and 12:00) or a PM slot (between 12:00 and 17:00). Please just let us know your preference when you schedule your next visit, and we'll be happy to accommodate a narrower window for you.
Kind regards.
