DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES SIGN A CONTRACT WITH GUARDIAN!!!
When we decided to buy with Ryan Homes in Whitehall, PA they had us meet with their Guardian rep. He assured us that we would have a window to decide whether or not to use their security services. We decided not to and informed him that we wouldn't be using them, but he got my wife to sign the contract under the false pretense that we wouldn't owe anything if the system weren't activated.
After closing on the house, a Guardian Tech showed up to activate the system and we explained that we weren't having it activated. He left and the system stayed off.
Two months later, we receive a bill for service and when we called to investigate were told that we were under contract and that a multi-thousand cancellation fee would apply, even though the service is not active in our house, and never has been.
BUYER BEWARE!!!
