Fortress has provided our business with great service. David and Nick they are always kind and helpful. I would recommend them to anyone looking for the peace of mind of having a monitoring system that they can rely on for their home business protection. I'm very happy with the service, I highly recommend Fortress Security 100%.

Mark Tate is a liar!!!!!!! I have been trying to contact the president of the company for 3 weeks he has blocked every attempt I've made. I sold me a camera system.that is out dated and super poor quality. I'm stuck in a contract for a year with guarantees and he refuses to honor them instead forcing me to buy something my contract already guarantees!!!! The most unethical person I've ever met in my life!!!!! Do not use this company or work directly with him!!!! He is super shady!!!!!!!

My complaint concerns a home alarm system for which the initial contract was paid in full. Despite the system being out of service for the 2 years preceding my cancellation request, the contract was still paid in full. Notification was made prior to the 12/31/2020 contract end and yet Fortress Security continually bills me for these services. I… paid services through 7/21 and then contacted the company again requesting cancellation and refund of the overfilled amount. They indicate the contract has auto renewed and now Im on the hook for another year of service, despite no longer being in

Highly recommend Fortress Security, I never experienced any problems. The times my alarm went off (by accident), I received a phone call within seconds to assure everything was okay. Mr. Mark Tate was very friendly and helpful with any questions that needed to be answered. Thank you for your service.

Fortress Security is top notch! I have been a customer for 5 years. I have always had a wonderful experience, from the initial registration to service requests. I have moved out of the area and no longer can use their services, but I would highly recommend them if you need an alarm monitoring company.

Attention all customers or potential of Fortress Security. I was a customer for 8 years. We sold our home and I called a week before the closing to cancel my service on our closing date. Sever weeks later, I noticed my bank account had a payment taken out. I called and found out that when you sign up, if you don't specify you don't want an… automatic renewal, you will be contractually obligated for a full year service after your anniversary date. That means you will pay for services even after you move out and cancel. MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT CHOSE THE AUTOMATIC RENEWAL in your contract. I had

The installers, Henri and Darryl were outstanding. First, they were on time, courteous and professional. Second, they didn't leave until everything was perfect. They made us feel like were their only customer. Third, they didn't just install what was in the work order, they did their OWN security assessment for my family's safety. This led to some additions I had overlooked. Finally, I made a special request for my network that wasn't related to the installation - he figured it out and made it happen without hesitation- this crew and their company gets it done! Having had multiple systems in several

We recently moved to Coppell and asked for a recommendation for security services. We chose Fortress and haven’t been disappointed! The service from Technician Ray Gipson exceeded expectations.

Seems like my poor experience is pretty similar to others listed in the reviews here. Glad my contract finally ended - but be careful as your contract does not actually "end" unless you give them plenty of notice that you want to terminate it. Otherwise they will bill you into eternity, even if the equipment does not work (no joke - they billed me for broken hardware).

This company is a racket. They do not clearly disclose the terms or costs of the system. Their customer service is greatly lacking. They are unwilling to work With their customers. They just want their money. And they tell you one price, when it comes time to make that change, they throw in extra fees and tell you their is nothing they can do about it. Your safety and that of your family is immensely important in our current times. That is not what Fortress security and their “Customer Relations Managers” are about.
