STRATEGIC PROTECTION GROUP INCORPORATED RIPOFF PADDING THE BILLS GHOSTING EMPLOYEES Oak Park Michigan
I have used Strategic for over a year, until one day I hired an employee who liked to come to work early. This employee reported to me that the security guards are never there when he comes in. I was paying for security from 10 pm to 6 am. This made me take a closer look at the service. I have cameras installed and pointed at the guard shck to monitor activity. I can say I was a little more than surprised to find out the guard would come in from 1/2 hour to 2 hours late and left every day at 3 am. I brought this to the attention of Strategic and they denied it. I sent them a copy of the tape, not once, but 3 times, each time they stated they have never recieved it. I hand delivered a copy and watched it with the owner. Mr. Salaman watched the tape with great interest then stated he would fix the problem. I asked about a refund of funds due to the false times, he stated he could not do that as he had already paid the officer. I found a new security company, but had to honor the 30 day out clause in their contract, even though they screwed up. I hired a new company and have never been happier. Strategic threatened me with lawyers and such, I did not pay their last invoice and they are now trying to sue me for it. I paid for all services rendered. I would never use this service again, your better off with no security at all.

You Should Have, Could Have Sued And...
#2Consumer Suggestion

First of all, they committed FRAUD which is a misdemeanor OR FELONY in Texas depending on the amount of money involved. You should have taken it to the District Attorney in the county in which your business was located. You have all the evidence you needed to prove your case in court. You find out who owns the company,who sold the account to you and you can sue each and every one of them collectively and individually.
Second of all, you could have reported them to the State Agency that licenses and regulates private security agencies. Again, you have all of the evidence you need.
Third, you could have SUED them for breach of contract and recovered your money that way. With any lock, you would have put them out of business.
Fourth, I am glad you posted this on www.ripoffreport.com, my favorite web site so I could see it. I was in the private security contracting business for 20 years and what happened to you is am extremely common practice in most security companies.
I am glad that some business owners who hire security have enough intelligence and business ability to make SURE they are getting their money's worth from their security service and for that, you are to be commended highly!
