Phone harrassment
Complaint Rating:  100 % with 2 votes
Company information:
Icon Security Systems
Provo, Utah
United States

Icon said in contract they would send invoices and accept payment by check (they PREFER CREDIT CARDS OR ACCESS TO YOUR CHECKING ACCT)BUT when I send check on time they do not cash it for several weeks which causes their computer auto calls demanding I

respond by calling them back. Their calls come into my home twice a day or more.

I have called them back explaining sixty or more times explaining that the check was sent to them electronicly more than two weeks ago and they

just need to cash it..THEY PROMISE TO CORRECT BY NOTIFYING THEIR SUPERVISOR ...BUT THAT HAS MEANT NOTHING ..but they will not and so the auto calls come until they finally deposit the check into their bank.

This has repeated every month and is drving me nuts..this is harrasment with calls night and day over a $40.00 bill that I've already paid like clock work each month on time etc.

I, too, have experienced the same issue since November of 2008. Their primitive method of bookkeeping leads me to believe their entire operation is conducted out of a cubicle with no connection to the actual security company (sub-contract work for billing). Anyway, their method of billing consists of 1) send a cheesy-looking, invoice that is always mailed within 2 days of expected payment, 2) threatening statement on the invoice which states the payment is due on the stated date (the only date on the invoice is the date of the billing which is ALWAYS several days after receipt of the bill in the mail, and 3) never being prompt with the processing of the payment check (normally 2-3 weeks after sending to them in the mail). The latter makes it very irritating to reconcile a check register, especially if I sit and wonder if Icon is still in business this month.

Judging from their billing procedures, my greatest fear is that the company will not deliver on services if I, or my family, encounter a life-threatening situation in which first responders are immediately needed.

Follow-up suggestion: I know this is doing THEIR work for them, but it is the way I will deal with them in the future. Since Icon is too cheap to provide a coupon book or mail invoices in a timely manner, I have made a copy of my last invoice, performed a white out in the pertinent areas, and made mulitple copies that I will fill out each month instead of waiting on them. I will mail them at least a week before they normally mail them to me.

They will have write in an invoice number for their records (like I care). I have a check number and carbon for my records. If they don't like it, they can respond to the BBB. I am interested in knowing if they have had complaints about the actual security service...

The link, below (from the BBB), will show you that Icon Security Inc is not a recognized BBB busines. It is, however, been given a rating of BBB which is the equivalent of an "F". The names of the company officers/contacts are listed on that site.

For my previous posting; little words can mean big things. I used the word "of", when I should have used "from" as I described the the rating from the BBB. It should have read "... given a rating from BBB..".
