Roman, employed alleged deceptive tactics to prevent consumers from canceling their contracts, charged consumers for services when their systems were not working and engaged in aggressive and illegal debt collection practices, in violation of G.L. c. 93A and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/doc\/940-cmr-7-debt-collection-regulations\/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">AG\u2019s Debt Collection Regulations<\/a>. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59983&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy office will always advocate for consumers, especially when they are preyed on by a company that engages in unfair and unlawful business practices,\u201d said AG Campbell. \u201cWe were able to hold Safe Home Security and its sister companies accountable for their alleged deceptive tactics, securing millions in debt relief for consumers, and we will continue to hold bad actors accountable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The settlement resolves a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/news\/ag-healey-obtains-court-order-against-safe-home-security-for-misleading-customers-and-charging-for-services-never-provided\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">lawsuit<\/a> the AG\u2019s Office brought against the company in December 2019. The AG\u2019s Office began investigating the company after receiving more than 100 complaints from Massachusetts consumers. Upon filing the complaint, the AG\u2019s Office immediately sought and obtained a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/doc\/safe-home-security-2019-pi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">preliminary injunction<\/a>, prohibiting the company from engaging in misconduct, such as illegally charging consumers, while the lawsuit was pending. The AG\u2019s Office amended the complaint in 2021 to include related companies, Security Systems, Inc., Safe Home Monitoring, Inc. and National Protective Services, Inc., as defendants and include additional allegations.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;59948&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;The amended complaint alleged that the defendants violated state consumer protection laws by employing unfair practices designed to trap consumers in their contracts including: failing to cancel contracts when consumers submitted timely written cancelation requests, misinforming consumers about the requirements needed to cancel and steering consumers into contract renewal rather than cancellation. The AG\u2019s Office additionally alleged that Safe Home Security had also billed and collected from consumers during periods of time in which the company\u2019s services were not being provided due to malfunctioning or inoperable systems. Safe Home\u2019s actions are alleged to have impacted thousands of Massachusetts consumers. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The AG\u2019s Office also alleged that Safe Home Security engaged in aggressive and illegal debt collection practices against consumers that fell behind on payments. This includes excessive debt collection calls, sending letters that did not contain notices of consumers\u2019 rights as is legally required and threats to report damaging information about consumers\u2019 credit. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>[broadstreet zone=&#8221;99032&#8243;]<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the settlement, Safe Home Security will be required to pay $1.8 million and to waive and forgive $4.7 million of outstanding debt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Safe Home Security has also agreed to make significant changes to its business practices including coming into compliance with the AG\u2019s Debt Collection Regulations, crediting consumers whose non-functioning systems it cannot repair, implementing new complaint procedures for consumers and permitting existing consumers to cancel their contracts by telephone.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Safe Home Security has also committed to revising the terms of its contracts by changing auto-renewal terms from annual to month-to-month, removing a clause in its contracts that caused future charges to become due immediately upon default and disclosing key terms in its contracts in a size 12 bold font \u2013 including monitoring charges, contract term, auto-renewal provisions, cancellation policies and procedures, late fees and other costs. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/framinghamsource.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/business-in-shape-2023-SOURCE-1-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-92813\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The AG\u2019s Consumer Protection Division enforces laws to protect consumers from fraud, deception and other unfair business practices.
