Castlerock Security/SAI Sued in 4 Fire Deaths
Numerous allegations of bad faith regarding automatically renewing contracts (and a refusal to notify or cancel them) have been noted here. That alone should be reason enough to think twice before using or staying with Castlerock. Howerver it gets MUCH WORSE.
