SimpliSafe

Home Security. Done right

 

Being safe should be simple. SimpliSafe designs home security systems that are wireless, cellular and so user-friendly they can be set up by anyone in minutes. An ever-expanding arsenal of sensors and the SimpliSafe security camera, SimpliCam, provides all-encompassing protection while integrated apps make comprehensive system control possible from anywhere.

But SimpliSafe is way more than its great products. It’s also seamless 24/7 professional monitoring, without the long-term contracts and sky-high prices of traditional alarm companies.

Currently, SimpliSafe protects over 2 million Americans and that number is quickly rising. In 2014, the company was ranked in The Inc. 500 as one of the fastest growing private companies in the nation with a 3,076% 3-year growth rate. SimpliSafe is ushering in a new era — one where anyone anywhere can have a security system that’s not only simple, but also on the cutting edge.

SimpliSafe is a malicious security…

SimpliSafe is a malicious security service company that promotes a 24/7 surveillance culture, similar to China's malevolent and evil facial surveillance system. Imagine a world where you can't go anywhere without being analyzed by AI that monitors you thousands of times per second and reports your activities. SimpliSafe contributes to the unethical, ever-growing, every-square-kilometer surveillance culture of the world and erodes fundamental human privacy rights. Their company should be shut down.

Simplisafe does not allow you to delete…

If you want to be able to use Simplisafe with Alexa, you can only do this with the top tier monitoring plan. So while the functionality is there, they only allow it with the Fast Protect plan which is their top paid plan. They also have a stupid policy regarding managing credit card info on file (see below). this is a 1-star product Simplisafe does not allow you to delete credit card info without contacting them. When you manage your payment methods, even though you already have 1 card on file set to default, they retain all old payment methods. A simple 2 min task ends up being a 30 min task. Then you have to validate every card you want to delete. Its the biggest bull crap I've ever seen for a company that makes it that difficult to remove sensitive info, in the age where securtiy breaches are happening every time. Once a breach occurs the only recourse is a free credit monitoring service and a pathetic apology. So makes no sense to insist on keeping more info when a customer wants to remove.
