Are you satisfied with our guards?

After almost 2 years of Hoo-Hahs, and after the forming and re-forming (but now seems defunct anyway) Lagoon Committee to address the guarded and gated issues, finally, like it or not, we got our guards (somehow). And like it or not, more and more houses is starting to pay them for patrolling our area.
So what do you think of them, (most important their patrol services) now that they have been here for more than 6 months ? Are you happy? Satisfied? No choice? Don't care?
Do share you feel about it.
Personally, i feel they have been trying to do their job, and what i like about them is they even patrol consistently our back lanes via motor cycles after midnight. Having said all that, being one of the ex committee members, i still not very comfortable about their origins, and how is their track records. So, even till now, i have not pay them for their patrolling.
Let's just view this issue a bit more neutrally and share your thoughts about it, treat this as a channel to voice (after trying to take action for the past 2 years...... ) Cheers.

We are very satisfied with their service infact they have contacted us on 2 occations where our autogate was left open and we were away. They sometimes noticed that if our main door is open after 12am they come by to check if all is ok. I honestly feel as a paying resident of the security service their services is very good. For those who feel otherwise pls ensure your a paying resident for security 1st before complaining.
Its sad when a resident who doesnt pay keeps complaining and accusing this company of all sort of wrong doings when in a contry we follow the term "Innocent until proven guilty". Thanks

Hi,
I'm a paying lagooners too. Like Anbu & Anita said i have on 2 occasion left my autogate half open and they contacted me. and regarding the patrolling i'm satisfied with the amount paid just that during midnight, the securities sleeps while manning the entrance and they don't seems to be energetic enough to fight of crime when needed. I suggest that we get their supervisor our and request them to setup proper security booth with at least 2-3 security at any given time rather than just 1 sitting there falling asleep. overall i think its ok and if is true more and more ppl are paying, i think we need to request them to make proper magnetic cards gate system or something more professional :)

Seems like the payers are quite happy with their service this is good. As to whether or not non payers are fit/allowed to comment, personally i think it is their rights. And it is no harm also for him/her to voice their opinion, what they observe, even they are not paying yet. Maybe they just want to observe them a bit longer before starting to pay. As part of Lagooners, i sincerely welcome payers, non payers to comment, feedbacks, in return we can honestly tell the guards, for their own improvement as well.

im happy with the basic services rendered such as rounding both front and back of our houses, alerting us when doors are open etc. however they seem to allow any tom dick and harry in and out of the lagoon. would it be too much if we request them to take down visitors license, no.plate etc before letting them enter?
