Thought I would go local as I wanted a quote for a system to be installed at my home. When contacting them the receptionist promised me that an engineer would contact me that day to discuss job, waited three days for a call. Being desperate to have the job done I rang them again spoke to the same receptionist who obviously had not taken any of my details for them to call me back!. I decided to gave them a miss due to customer service.it's a shame because I wanted to use a local firm.

Report
Scan Alarms fitted an intercom and door access system to our office in Moneyreagh (Somerville Ltd). From initial survey and quote, through to carrying out the work, the service and value for money were excellent. I would have no hesitation in recommending Scan Alarms to anyone looking for a similar system.

Report
Chris came and we walked around the building and agreed what was needed, he sent in a price and a long spec for the work. To my detriment i did not go through this spec in detail as i assumed he had included everything as discussed. I agreed to go ahead and when they came to install i was shocked to find a large part of the work was not getting done. Not i am looking at an additional bill for this work as you cant easily change supplier now but the biggest let down was Chris's handling of this issue as he made no effort to make good the situation in anyway and completely dismissed my claims. Such a let down and such poor service.
