Why is Brinks Home Security a member of IQ Certification Board? Why do they have a seat in the board of directors? Since they only know one panel, a handful of devices. These guys are much worse than Ranger American installers here in Texas.
If Brinks installers were required to take a general knowledge test like electrical apprentices do, these bozos would fail.
I have more respect for ADT guys. At least some of them will try to work with customers equipment, as long as it is listed on their approved panel list. These Brinks guys treat security like they are a monopolized utility company.
I am embarrassed that they have been permitted to commit unfair sales and trade practices. It is easy to give away the farm when it is stockholders money you are using to fund it all.
You will notice that Brinks does not hold any real credentials, like nicet certification. They are just interested in duping unsuspecting homeowners out of their life savings, and providing their customers with a false sense of security. I heard they planned on opening a commercial installation department. This should be intersting, but doom to failure because not to many commercial installers are willing to take $7.50 an hour. Brinks will have to hire immigrants like Ranger American does.
Immigrants will work 80 hours for 39 hours pay (the infamous part time, no benefits plan), plus provide their own vehicles, gas and tools.
Shame on you Brinks.
