"To all Angies list members reading this review, Internet cable couldn't be installed, client was notified and price for that part of installation was removed from the bill. Client requested multiple revisions that some were not our fault: - Client asked to move cameras after installation was agreed and done - Did free of charge. - Client asked to install UPS and move shelves in his desk - did free of charge. - Client asked to pay for permit revision (after he changed original scope of work) - We paid for revision. - Client asked to re angle cameras multiple times even after we left the job and client agreed to angels. Bad review came after client asks us to do more and more tasks after permit was passed by the city free of charge and threaten us to put bad review and complain to the all world if we don't agree to his "demands" - we won't be bullied even if you put a bad review. This type of client, trying to make the companies performing the job for him to lose money because "he paid" - we don't owe you more then we agreed on. A complaint was filled in the buyer report against him and to engieslist to be aware of the way he does business (other sellers forums in the coral springs area got warning notice as well). As a service provider be careful to work with this Angieslist member. Client is always right - but in this case - the client is not right!"
out of Miami / Davie Florida. I have been dealing with Pogo for the
past year and I feel like I should warn others of his questionable
business practices and ethics.
Firstly, I ordered a complete
Control 4 home automation and system from Pogo, which he showed and
continues to show little competence in understanding the basics of a
system he states he's expertly trained in. The system, which I've paid
tens of thousands of dollars has been flawed from the onset. Not
knocking Control 4, as I do believe the system can work properly if
properly configured. This is not the case for me and my experience thus
far.
The worst part of this story is when I ordered the system, I
was sold 2 high end wireless access points on David's recommendation,
costing me $600 each ($1200 in total) When he installed the system,
that I unfortunately paid for in advance, I realized he switched the
routers for a different set. He told me they were better than the ones I
purchased so I thought I'd investigate the model numbers online and to
my surprise the ones he gave me were from a cheap boxed set you can get
anywhere costing a mere $200 in total. When I complained, he told me
that he would replace them and has since not come through so I've been
left with patchy internet.
Further, he sold me a $6000 HDMI
switch that has yet to be installed and sitting in it's original
packaging. When he sold me the unit, he said it was plug and play with
the rest of the system and I would be able to use it to control all of
my TV's from one central location. When the time came to install, David
realized that it required a bunch of other components that would cost
me about another $10K. This wasn't mentioned when I purchased the box.
I further found out that he paid about $1350 for this HDMI box and made
me feel like he not only over charged me but he misrepresented the
product.
And lastly, I purchased 2 Wireless music bridges to
operate my music on control 4. One of the music bridges was defective
from the time of install and to this day, not replaced, repaired or
serviced. Every time I call, David keeps stating that he's on it but
like the other things he states, they are far from truthful. So after
strike three, I've stopped trusting David's word. I have kept asking
him to come and repair the items noted and just the other day, he has
stated that he now wants me to pay him to come and fix the items.
Enough is Enough, so I fired him and now I'm left stranded.
Moral
of the story, if you choose to ever use Pogo Security for any future
work, be extremely cautious if you decide to provide any upfront money
and I would wait until the work is complete and functioning properly
before disbursing funds. I know it sounds basic, but he will promise
the world and under deliver at the end. Also, don't be misled when
David states he'll be back to fix any loose ends and lastly take note of
each model and serial number ordered as David may switch hardware
without telling you like he did with me.
Terry (tech) arrived promptly, carefully listen to my security needs for my residence then looked my old system.
Once he got started he was meticulous, re-wired the old system, installed several cameras and was
very patient with me and answered all questions without hesitation and with a great attitude.
This company was a quantum leap better than the last company that I used, they were professional, knowledgeable, patient, guarantee their work for 3 years, cheaper and the results surpassed all my expectations.
I am a skeptic by nature but POGO Security was outstanding and I highly recommend them without hesitation. Two thumbs up!!!!!!
Fast professional good quality
It scary spending a lot of money, and not knowing if the will do a good job or not. Pogo far exceeded my expectations and I give them an A++!!!
The cameras work fine at home, but never worked on my tablet away. I have not gotten this fixed yet,because that someone is now a hold of my entire computer system and I cannot use it at home. All in all Pogo did do a fine job. These problems are not Pogo's fault.,
But they did contribute to them somewhat, because of the initial lack of security, which they did fix, but a little too late.
