Churches Fire & Security Recenzje 

Churches Fire & Security took over our existing provider and charged much higher fees for our village hall. When we told them that we no longer requred their services they charged an exit fee from the contract although a written contract was never signed or issued. Apparently this is normal practice for them according to those in the trade. Please be aware of this before thinking of employing them. I also wish there was a zero star rating!!

Dragon, taken over by Churches. Gone downhill. Have two properties with them and leaving.
Amazingly they charge 50p a minute to phone them! without any warning of charge. No modern simple chat function.
Tried emailing them 2 days ago - haven't heard back.

This company, (Churches Fire Security Ltd) bought out the company that serviced and monitored my domestic security alarm system. They did not communicate this well at all and the level of service dropped immediately, it seemed like they were not really set up for working with domestic customers. Contact details changed overnight and were not communicated to me. Costs were increased quickly, and the way service visits were booked changed without any notice, even trying to make a simple enquiry led to spending hours on the phone talking to people who I felt were not really interested, in an attempt to get to the right person. They came to fix a fault, eventually, but it recurred, and they came back several times before it was put right, but then tried to charge me for each visit. I was paying for alarm monitoring and then whilst I was on holiday abroad and had a notification that the alarm at home had activated - it was a false alarm, but they refused to reset the alarm remotely - so we had to leave the property without an active alarm for over a week (begging the question why pay hundreds of pounds for monitoring if that's how it works?). The annual contract I paid for shortly after they were forced upon me has now expired and I asked them to cancel their service and found a provider that is much better value for money in a domestic situation. However, as well as trying hard to get me to tell them who I have moved to (its none of their business) Churches are now trying to charge a "cancellation fee" citing a 12 month notice of cancellation period in their terms and conditions, which I have never seen - and despite me never having chosen them as a provider - they were forced upon me as they took over a company and I was given no notice of that or choice to opt out. I had little time to consider my options before their first annual payment was due. My impression is of a large company mainly aimed at business customers, who are not set up to deal with domestic customers and to whom customer service levels do not matter, and who are only interested in making as much profit as possible from the customers of businesses they have acquired, and they are well versed in the tricks of their trade to try to get one over on people.
UPDATE
After threatening to sue me for the full cost of a years service contract, for daring to cancel their contract before it renewed, Churches have now finally backed off and cancelled that action.
