They never showed up for our appointment. No one has called to explain or reschedule. I used their services years ago and was always very satisfied with them. Not sure what happened because nobody bothered to contact me. Guess I'll call their competitors.

Worst company ever! If I could give ZERO stars I would! We have been customers for 20 years and had to deactivate our system due to not needing it. Little did we know it clearly was never deactivated. Called on a weekend because the alarm was going off and no code, taking out the battery, undoing wires was working. Chad answered the phone and demanded cash only for any help laughed at my elderly mother who was trying to fix it panicked and crying.

I called them being hours away from be able to bring cash pleading for help and he laughed at me and said well your not a customer anymore we can't help you without cash! I offered my debit card or credit card to which he laughed again and started yelling at me what do you want me to do?! What do you want me to do? Over and over again! My mother is crying I'm panicked and still alarm is going off and Rancho Santa Fe Alarm is to blame and they are just laughing at us.

He said looks like you're going to have to call Monday.thank you so much chad and Rancho Santa Fe Security you win for the worst customer service EVER I will go to every length possible to make sure everyone knows about this.

Right from the beginning RSF Security Systems contacted me and met with me to discuss what we desired for our upgrade for our alarm and response system. They were on time and took their time to insure we understood all the aspect the utilization onsite and remote access. I would definitely recommend Rancho Santa Fe Security Systems.

Good service tech (Ron) who hooked up the existing system that came with the house. He explained everything carefully and professionally, and left us feeling confident that we are in good hands for all our security needs.

This is a great local business! We've been customers for 20 years and have used them as we moved from home to home. They took over monitoring a system left by previous owner, totally figured it out and updated it. Just put a leak detection system in and decided it was a good idea for RSF Security to monitor it so that if there was a flood, they would be notified. Between Jonathon in the office, and Ron in the field they got the system (so complicated!) up and running. There isn't a more patient, dependable and all around nice guy than Ron. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for a security company. They're hands down the best in town.
