Summit Security

For those of you that dont know anything about security. Security officers are not legally allowed to arrest, detain, apprehend anyone. Also, as security officers, they are not able to force anyone to do anything. Security guards are not the police. They do not have the sworn abilities that peace officers have. So for those of you that think they do, you wrong. For those of you that think a security guard can stop some one from commiting illegal activity, you’re halfway right. Security officers are visual deterents. Observe and report is the job description. Security officers presence on a property merely decreases the chances of illegal activity from happening. It can not completely eliminate it.
However, for those of you that believe Security officers are a joke. Try calling the Police Department when someone parks in your assigned parking space. Try calling PD when your neighbor is bothering you with a loud tv, music, kids, guests, after hors appliances, foot traffic any other bullshit reason people complain about. You think PD has time for that? They dont even come out to you anymore if you vehicle has been broken into or stolen. They take an ober the phone report.
Moral of this Review:
So if you dont want security knocking on your door, towing your car, or inconveincing your life in anyway, shape or form. Then follow the fucking rules. Dont park in fire lanes, no parking zones, «reserved» parking areas. Read the parking signs that are posted at all the entrances to the properties and garages you live at or are visiting. Stop making noise in your apartment. Or realize you live in an apartment complex. Its not a house, so you will hear noises. If you dont want to hear noises. Live in a fucking house.
One last thing. Not all security guards are assholes or lazy. Some of us do take pride in our 9.00/hr job because thats have.
Sorry if you’re offended by this. But some people just think that Security Officers are what they see on T. V and movies. Its not at all

I live at la Jolla crossroads and they use Summit (now they call themselves Universal). My car along with 4 others were broken into and robbed a few months back. This security team is extremely unprofessional and needs to be evaluated by La Jolla Crossroads. Why are they using this company?
Tonight, I spoke with Antonio about my sister visiting for the weekend and he was extremely rude about helping me understand where to park. I asked to speak to his supervisor and and a man named Wes answered. Wes was even more unprofessional and was sarcastic. I will NOT be treated with pure disrespect and unprofessionalism.
They are not a security team. They are a joke.
My investigators are looking into my robbery because some residents believe it is an inside job.
Before moving to la Jolla crossroads or any apartments in la Jolla, be sure to ask if this is the security company, if so… Beware…

What a useless «Security» company. From my first interaction with them over four years ago, I could tell that they’re not there to help. The level of ineptitude is only surpassed by their disdain for their jobs.
Every time I called them out for a noise complaint in my building, they told me they could not do anything. That leads me to ponder, why the hell do they even exist and why is a portion of my rent paying their salaries?!?
As my police officer friend once said, these guards are people who wanted to be cops but couldn’t pass the psych testing!
I honestly can’t wait til I move somewhere where I don’t see their dinky little cars…

My apartment uses summit patrol and one person manages so many properties at a time that they take FOREVER to take any action. In fact, they dont really care about the complains.
Basically they dont give a sh*t about guarding. Whenever I complain, they never listen, except giving me full of excuses and telling me to taking the matters to leasing office (if so, what is YOUR job? what are we paying you for?)
worst security company ever!!!

these idiots just woke me up at 2:30 in the morning by pounding on my door to tell me that I have a «noise complaint». I don’t know how I could have incurred a noise complaint in my sleep, security seems to think its possible. Why would they start wailing on the door of a dark and quiet apartment otherwise? I think my security dudes are on meth. yay for people without high school educations!
…wait… you mean I have no basis for accusing them of being on meth??? Much like they have no basis for their noise complaint that led them to pound on my door repeatedly to wake me up. I would much rather deal with real police than these hired morons. Wtf do they do anyway??? I see flyers all the time about stolen cars and motorcycles in our parking garage.
As far as I can tell these guys spend half their time harassing residents and the other half calling western towing to harass people further. They do no actual protection and only exist to make the HOA money.
If you have an actual complaint I would recommend calling the «real police» instead. These guys can’t help you at all and only exist to provide profits for their contracted towing companies.
These guys are idiots and completely inept.
Also, the manager of the company hung up on me when I called him to complain about his employees and their harassment. The «real» police have recommended I keep a log of such incidents and if i need to in the future, obtain a restraining order. I have already informed them that if they ever come to my door again I’m calling the cops.
God! I’m so wound up now there is no way I’m sleeping. grrrr!
Happy New Year! ^_^

If this is the Summit Security that exists at Costa Verde apartments, then i have to say, THEY ARE ON TOP OF THINGS.
they came in and hour after i called for them, fixed my fridge. fixed the smoke alarm, asked if there was anything else that was broken, and left.
and we don’t even have to pay them because the apartment pays for them!
the fridge leaks no more.
on the other hand, they did give me a parking ticket for parking in guest parking. but i guess that was my bad. I parked there because it was closer to the door to the staircase to my apartment. laziness does not pay, my friends.
