    Levi did an excellent job in running wire and hooking up the devices. He checked and made sure that everything was running well before he left. Though there was a delay due to scheduling, we are very pleased with the security device and the work that Levi did. We have already recommended him to others seeking a security device.

    The agents did a good job and were courteous. I do believe they could have done a bit better with CAT cable management in the basement by hiding excess CAT cable above the drop ceiling.

    I had to move furniture and other things for them to install these cameras. for FOUR days in a row I moved furniture to get set up for their arrival , Each day they called up and canceled. After four days of this I got MAD, and cancelled the deal. I called Best Buy to see what they were going to do about this situation , and they were not concerned, I will not deal with Best Buy AGAIN!!! And they do not care!!. I have bought a lot of stuff from Best Buy, Never Again!!! They do not care about my business!

    Third party was the absolute worse to do this job. They ended up putting holes in my ceiling, just a very bad experience. I highly recommend find your own help or workers to do any job for you.

    Subcontractors sent for install and wires up the outside of house. Looks like a spiderweb! After having security system removed from Best Buy they still have wires left on house! Horrible and disgusting.

    The guys Best Buy contracted to install my system were clueless... I’m just upset because after seeing what they did, I could have installed them myself... I practically walked them thru the installation process.. if your house is pre wired, save your money and install it your self
