  Please review my case #********.

  
  

  I totally disagree with the answer that was sent to you from AMP.  I have had problems with this company since day one. I started with AMP through a door to door sales contact in July of 2018. I tried to quit their service back in 2020 after my husband died in March, but was told that I was still under contract until March of 2021.  They were correct and I continued making monthly payments. I again tried to quit the service in March of 2021 but continued with them when they offered me my cameras to continue with my service.  I did extend at that time.  I did not extend my contract at any other time. I know with AI these companies can manipulate any information that they want, once you have extended.  I did not extend at any other time. I have not received a bill from them, since I told them to not take any more payments from my bank account in February 2025. The representative that I talked to about this told me that he would give me the same service for less than half of what I was paying now if I stayed with them.  When I refused the offer, he put me on hold, then he came back and said the same thing as the answer to the complaint and that he would ruin my credit if I did not pay them $1,850.00 to cancel. This conversation was on a recorded line, so it should be available for them to produce. This representative was rude and treated me like I was a stupid person. His talk with me bordered on elder abuse. (his statement "just because you think the earth is flat does not make it so")

  I am an eighty-five year old widow, but I still have a very sharp mind.  I also keep good records.

  ed to a contract extension in 2020 to get cameras installed. I did not agree to another one. They sent me 3 emails on 1/27 but when I went back to print them out they were gone. I told them I was going to contact BBB so I guess they did not want me to have them. I have asked them to not take any more payments from my checking account because I am trying to get this resolved. They will charge me $2.00 for a paper bill.

  AMP respectfully disagrees with the customers claims. To ensure transparency and compliance,AMP utilized DocuSign, a widely recognized and reliable e-signature platform that adheres to state and federal e-signature laws. All relevant documents for the customers Monitoring Agreement and contract addendum were sent to their email, ******************** for review and signature. Upon completion, DocuSign automatically provided the customer with a signed copy for their records. *** does not have access to the customer's account and cannot read or delete emails.

  The customer explicitly initialed and signed the agreement, signifying their acknowledgment and acceptance of the terms. Additionally, Section 11, written in bold for emphasis, specifies the early termination fee applicable for cancellations before the current contract term ends.

  AMP offers a three-day right of rescission, providing customers ample time to review their agreement, test their equipment, and cancel without penalties. The customer did not exercise this right during the rescission period or raise any concerns.

  If the customer wishes to terminate the agreement prematurely, the early termination fee, as outlined in the contract, will apply.

  I reject this as a non acceptable action to my complaint.  Please review all my information that was previously sent to you.  ************ is stalling addressing the situation and giving any answers to my complaint. They have not taken any payments from my bank account at my direction and are stalling so they can get more money from me.  I have stopped using the security service.  I just want them to cancel so I can go ahead and get another service.  I am 85 years old and need that peace of mind.  They are robbing me of my security that I need.  This borders on Elder Abuse.

  AMP Smart security refuses to cancel my security monitoring account after the 60 month contract has ended. I have notified them by writing, email, and telephone. They continue to bill me after I cancelled the automatic payment from my bank. They simply won't go away and are a nuisance.Contract was up on 6/25/2024. Cancelled 7?20/2024. Continued to draft payment until 8/27/2024 when I cancelled payment. They did not stay in agreement of contract that payment would drop from $ 64 a month to $35 a month, instead it raised to $ 84 a month before the contact was over. Its a terrible company to let operate in any city.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  The addendum portion of this document was not circled at the time of signing and as I originally stated, I was advised that signing the document was in agreement that the specific work on this work order had been completed. According to the technician who completed the work & presented the document for signing - the ONLY thing I was agreeing to was that the work on this work order was completed. There was no indication that I was renewing my contract for another 60 months. Their equipment had failed, that was not my responsibility, it was their responsibility to provide working equipment. I was under the understanding that they were only repairing their failed equipment. I was paying my monthly monitoring fee as per the agreement. I should not need to be responsible for paying fees for monitoring a home that I no longer own. The current homeowner is not interested in taking over the contract. Considering the way I have been treated, I cannot recommend using this company. Their business practices are not transparent - instead they are manipulative and deceitful.   

  
  
  
  
  Sincerely,

  Titanium Solar is committed to transparency and clarity in all contractual agreements with our customers. We strive to ensure that the terms and conditions of our agreements are presented clearly and comprehensively.

  By signing the agreement, customers confirm that they have read and understood the terms and conditions. This mutual understanding forms the basis of the contractual obligations for both parties.

  In this specific instance, the title of the agreement, "Monitoring Agreement Addendum," was circled for emphasis to ensure it stood out within the document. This measure was taken to promote clarity and assist the customer in recognizing key aspects of the agreement.

  If the customer would like to cancel the services before the end of the current term, they will need to pay the early termination fee stipulated in Section 8 of their Monitoring Agreement or find someone else to take over their contract.

  I still have the same reasons as my first response to reject AMP Smart's response. They have not made any effort to work with me to resolve the issue.

  I still reject their response.

  I attempted to terminate my contract with Ampsmart when moving houses in 2019. I did not want to pay the early termination fee at the time. I thought my agreement would be up in a year, but it was extended without my extent through June 2025. They claim they reached out to me, but I did not receive any calls or emails from the company. From the time I left the address with the security system in place until now, I have had $5,670 withdrawn from my bank account without my consent. I would like to have that money credited back to my account as I thought my contract had expired and I had not been using the service for years. This is fraudulent activity specifically praying on unsuspecting consumers. It is commonly found online as a complaint about this company.

  I have a home security system with AmpSmart. The system is constantly not working, I've got to bypass.2 doors to.even set the alarm, which completely makes the system useless. I've tried to cancel twice, both times I was told my contract was automatically renewed for 5 years and to cancel I'd owe.almost $2,000! They claim I gave concent but I don't remember ever giving concent, now I'm stuck in a contract until.2026. I'm also being charged $20+ more per month more than I was when I signed up. This company scamming its customers and knows there's nothing we can do about it.

  AMP respectfully disagrees with the customers claims. Customers are responsible for regularly testing their equipment to ensure it functions properly. If any issues are identified, it is their responsibility to notify ***. We offer free over-the-phone technical support, and for those who prefer in-person assistance, onsite support is available for a nominal fee.
  Regarding the price increase, AMP adjusted its rates over the past year due to inflation and economic changes. Rising costs from our vendors and partnerscovering areas such as monitoring, equipment, insurance, and credit card processinghave impacted our operations. Despite this, we have implemented only minimal increases to customer rates. For more information, please refer to Section C:3 of the Monitoring Agreement.
  As for the contract addendum, the customers signature confirms their agreement to the extension of their contract. Section D of the addendum explicitly outlines the terms of the extension. We encourage customers to carefully review these details as part of their contractual responsibilities.
  Additionally, *** provides a three-day right of rescission, allowing customers to review their contract and cancel without penalty during this period. The customer did not raise any concerns during this timeframe.
  The customer is currently scheduled for a technician visit at their home on January 2, 2025.

  We have been loyal customers of ******************** for over 10 years, but our recent experience has been disappointing. We have been trying to cancel service for over 3 weeks at my mother-in-law's home. She had to move for medical reasons, and every time we tried to cancel, they came up with a different request. They make it impossible to cancel and are unwilling to help or assist. We have called and emailed many times and have yet to receive action. The home has been empty for several weeks and is on the market to sell, and they refuse to cancel the service. I would avoid AMP Smart due to customer service and inconsistent communication.
