What Our Customers Are Saying…

I just want to thank Safeguard Rapid Response for attending to a trespassing at my property this afternoon. They arrived promptly and were able to handle the situation until myself and the Police were on site.

Good Morning Lol and Andrew.

I just wanted to. let you know of your guard Mukarati who worked on Friday night the 14 June 2024.

Upon his walking inspection after we had closed at 22.38 he noticed that windows/doors of the restaurant were steamed up and upon further looking he saw orange under the pizza oven ( thinking this was strange) he ran to call our Junior chef Alice who was waiting at the gate for her husband.  She then ran to call another staff member George who lives on the property. George/Alice and Mukarati entered the building and noticed that there was a fire underneath the Pizza Oven which is where we keep our spare fire wood for the Pizza oven.  Alices husband at some stage joined in the putting out the fire efforts. This is when George called me and advised that there was a fire.

I came down whilst the fire was under control by the 3 staff.  The guard himself was waiting for me at the carpark to show me what was happening and explained what he had seen and also where the fire extinguishers had come from as well as running and using buckets of water.

In the long and short of the story had it not been for your Guard we would of lost a lot more and we are extremely grateful for his efforts and reacting so fast. The roaming team arrived and also doused the fire with extra water after inspecting the fire area.

We really would like Mr Mukarati to be thanked.

Kindest regards

Dear Rumbidzai,

Thank you for your email.

On behalf of AA Zimbabwe I would like to thank you and the whole Safeguard team most sincerely for the service provided by Safeguard Security for the AA Zimbabwe Motor Extravaganza held at St John’s College on the 2nd and 3rd of September.

The vehicle owners demanded utmost security for their cherished and valuable vehicles on display and we were able to persuade them that Safeguard would provide such a service. The number of vehicles on exhibition is testament to the fact that they were suitably reassured…!

The coverage and range of security services provided, from “eye in the sky” to a dog handler and smart guards, meant that not a single security incident was reported to us on the weekend despite the large crowds of visitors.

Our thanks for your exemplary service.

Sincerely,

Peter Locke

Regional Manager, AA Zimbabwe

On behalf of Jacana Yacht Club, thank you so very much for the wonderful team who came to look after the security and control of the gate at Jacana.

Mr Shumba and his team are superb, and their attention to detail is wonderful. We could not have managed to run Sailing School so smoothly this year without their active involvement.

The radios were a great help in assisting with communication.

The Safeguard logo was placed on all the Sailing School T-shirts, and the banners and flags were prominently displayed.

Thank you again.

Hi Andy

I would just like to say the Safeguard app worked absolutely flawlessly the other night when we had an issue at home. The ambulance service arrived promptly and your people kept in communication every ten minutes or so checking on proceedings. A truly outstanding service by your team and a testament to you and your company.

Thankfully all ended well. Best wishes Andy

Dear Andy, Lol and Webster,

On behalf of the Local Organising Committee for the recently ended 2023 Bonaqua Africa Triathlon Cup and Multisport Festival Troutbeck, staged under the auspices of Triathlon Zimbabwe as sanctioned by World Triathlon, we would like to thank you most gratefully for your support and contribution to making the event a huge success.

It is our responsibility to ensure that we deliver a holistic event that combines an overall athlete experience for all levels of participant, delivers an exciting spectator experience, and just as importantly, deliver a marketing and media platform for our generous sponsors and partners that showcases your brands.

We strive to ensure that we build on a long-term framework of transparency that is inclusive for not only the Troutbeck event but for all of our events that are at your disposal for each respective sponsorship period or season.

We sincerely hope that we have achieved this level of cooperation as the delivery agent for this international event that we constantly wish to improve and build on from one year to the next. In the end it is our commitment to hold an event that attracts top of mind awareness as a “must do event” for every level of athlete and participant.

Triathlon Zimbabwe is very proud of the legacy built over fifteen years of this event, the longest running event of this level on the African Continent and we could not have achieved this high level of delivery without your continued and loyal support.

To this end we salute and thank you most sincerely for partnering with us during the months of planning as a key component of the delivery of the 2023 edition of the Troutbeck event.

Our local participation numbers continue to grow across a variety of events, as with the number of international athletes (from 20 countries in 2023) who are attracted to the elite and junior events, not only for valuable ranking points, but based on a legacy for a professionally organised event that allows them to showcase their capabilities in a safe and fair environment.

We will soon share the media report and also a debrief document with yourselves for your considered input to assist to continue to improve the event for 2024.

We also would like to thank your key management and contact staff who have worked directly with us over the last six months of the planning process.

Yours faithfully,

Triathlon Zimbabwe

Good Morning Andy,

I hope you are well. I was involved in a nasty car accident yesterday at the corner of Coventry/Lobengula. I was hit by a speeding truck, my car badly damaged and I was shaken up…whilst I was still in the car, with the usual crowd gathering, one of your RR vehicles arrived at the scene. Their first priority was making sure I was OK, then they put out traffic cones to protect me, kept the crowd at bay, and controlled traffic. They were fantastic Andy, they really were, they stayed on scene until the police arrived, the vehicles were cleared and after again checking I was OK they withdrew.

The men were Frank Mutematsaka and Brighton Sibanda. I would very much like to give them something to say thank you, which I felt I should do through you rather than directly with them. And thanks to Safeguard too, your help was much appreciated.

Many thanks to your detailed report, I really appreciate. This helps to us to be aware and keep watch of the crimes being committed around us less we fall victims too.

Dear Andrew,

Thanks for your generous gift to celebrate Safeguard’s life of 50 years in this country.

I am proud to be associated with Safeguard who have given reliable service.

Wishing you more success and prosperity in 2023.

Inge Tanton

During the early hours of the 23rd November around 0300hrs l was involved in a minor road accident. My car swerved off the road and landed in a roadside drainage (Engen Fuel Station along Kirkman at Madokero). A few minutes later l saw headlights flashing and two gentlemen inquired if l was OK and if I needed assistance. I had already called Road Angels to assist and as such l responded and immediately recognized the two gentlemen as the ones who attended to my distress call a while back with vehicle ID 33. The two gentlemen called their control room which called back to insure if l needed any assistance. 

The two gentlemen stayed with me until the Road Angels team arrived and finished their rescue operations. Special thanks to Safeguard for such exceptional service with a special mention of the two Nkosana and Kumutumba.

Hi Andy

Hope this finds you well.

I was just wanting to let you know what a good team Safeguard have in Emerald Hill. We had the misfortune of needing your guys urgently in the early morning Sunday. I pressed my panic button & the team arrived to survey both mine & neighbours on Belfast Road. Another neighbour has a Safeguard Guard every night that blew his whistle.

The copper thieves were disturbed & though, they had cut the ZESA wires, left the loot behind. Your guys fetched Avondale Police & all was handled very professionally.

You only ever hear the negative feedback but your guys were good & need to be commended.

Crime is certainly on the increase … A busy season ahead for you

Sue Hair

On 20 September 2022, our neighborhood alarm went off at our residence in Marlborough in the evening shortly after 9pm. 

Almost immediately, I got a follow-up call from your control room. Spoido and Mazhindu were assigned to make a follow-up. This they did, timeously and diligently through careful checks on our premises, and confirmed that all was well. 

I would like to commend the professional way in which the incident was handled along the security value chain and to commend the actions of Spoido and Mazhindu who executed their part of the assignment in a reassuring and authoritative manner. 

Thank you.

Dear Brian,

Following yesterday’s incident at Hellenic Primary School, I wanted to recognise the good work that the Safeguard team did to identify and deal with a suspicious vehicle. The vigilance and proactivity has the effect of increased confidence in our security provision. Equally, the arrest of the serial laptop thief on Hellenic grounds last term, after she had plagued a number of Harare schools brings solid kudos to your company. 

I have mentioned regularly that the impact of a strong supervisor on our estate is a critical component of effective security for the school. 

Well done to you and your team.

Liam Middleton

Deputy Head / Director of Sport, Hellenic Primary and Academy

I would like to thank your Guards who reacted to our panic button call on Friday 12 August. We were away and we had an intruder in our yard attempting to break into our house. Our Gogo who lives on the property pressed the panic button and your Guards responded very quickly. They also took the time to look around and calm and reassure her. Thank you.

Dear sir,

I wish to convey my sincere appreciation to you and your organisation for a very professional, ethical and contact of integrity displayed by one of your officers based at Arundel School.

Background on the Saturday of 04 June 2022, there was a sports function at Arundel school. My son, from St Georges asked to be dropped to watch his friend play a hockey match. When the game was over and I picked him, he forgot his bag that contained his iPad, A-level texts books and some jacket. Only when we got home did he realise he had forgotten it. We drove back to the school, realised the bag was not there where he had left it and asked my son to first approach the security officer who was closest to the fields whilst I stayed behind. After very careful questioning and probing to ascertain the authenticity of my son`s claim that he had left his bag, the officer informed him she had picked it. She then went on to counsel him about being responsible and safeguarding parents’ investment in what they buy their children to use in school. It was only then that I introduced to her that I was the child’ father.

I was impressed by the level of professionalism displayed, and just want to commend her and your organisation for standing out. These days, many that claim are professionals don’t always live to that claim, but you have distinguished yourselves through her example.

Thank you.

I would like to say a sincere thank you to Brighton for the excellent service we received from him with regards to a Panic Button Signal not been received in the control room.
Brighton kept in contact with me and arrived on the day we had arranged and was extremely polite and professional,  I would like to thank him for the great service we received and for rectifying the problem so efficiently.
Many thanks

Afternoon Safeguard,
Would like to take the opportunity in thanking both Lol and Brian for the team of guards we currently have at all three schools. One is usually very quick to criticize and complain about service, and we tend to forget to thank someone when deserving. Currently, the guards are all polite, know what is expected from them, well presented, and very helpful, especially to the students and parents. Thank you to all the guards, and please keep up the good work.
Please thank your guards on behalf of the three Headmasters.

I would just publicly like to thank safeguard and their rapid response team. My dearest mum was attacked in her home yesterday morning and was forced to the ground and choked. When she was let go to get keys to open the cupboards she managed to hit her panic button. Safeguard was there in record-breaking time. They caught the perpetrator as he was trying to escape. They kept my mum safe till we could get to her. They are fast, efficient, kind, and trustworthy.

I would recommend to anyone with elderly parents or women on their own to sign up with them. They do give a pensioners rate.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart Safeguard, because of you and her guardian angels I have my mum today xx.

I would like to commend the Safeguard team for their very quick and intuitive response to the robbery we experienced in the early hours of Sunday morning the 9th of May 2021. The team that responded were very quick to react and professional. Please keep this up. I would also like to say a very big thank you to Mr Lloyd who attended the scene and was extremely helpful throughout the process. 

Please guys keep up the good work.

Mr. M. Mukadam

Hello Andrew

I hope this finds you well and staying safe!

My apologies as I should have sent this email last week but somehow the time ran away from me!

Our daughter, had a car accident [rear-ended] during the evening of Saturday 6 March; she was indicating to turn right into Hunt Road off Borrowdale Road while making her way home.

My husband went to help her out and he asked me to call your response centre to get someone to go to Borrowdale Police to bring a Constable to the scene.

I spoke with Sebastian a number of times while he arranged to get one of your response teams to react and he was amazing – calm, clear, nothing was a problem, he was happy to help – all very comforting at 21.30 when you’re at home and wondering what’s going on at the scene!

Please would you thank Sebastian on our behalf.

Thanks and kind regards

We have been using Safegaurd for over 30 years now, many for reaction squad, security alarm and electric gate motors. Recently Gilbert quoted against 2 other companies to instal a CCTV set up of 4 cameras and all the other equipment that goes with it. I am writing to you to express my complete customer satisfaction in the manner in which everything was handled from Gilberts accurate quoting, your installation team who were so talented and pleasant to have on the property, ending off with Themba’s excellent lesson on the recorder, playback etc etc. It really was a pleasure dealing with such a professional outfit for which I thank you and all staff concerned.

Hie viners, those of you who live on Kew Drive/Orange Groove area, please be on high alert and make sure you are secure. I had 2 attempted break-ins, first one at 11.45pm and the other at 1am. They got into my car and stole the car seat covers. I have dogs and not one of them barked. I am fully alarmed and have a night guard that patrols outside the property. Thanks to my guards quick reaction and to Safeguard response team who were at my premises within a couple of minutes of my alarm going off.

Homeowner, Harare

“We are in Harare and have been a customer of Safeguard for nearly 10 years. Safeguard installed and maintain our alarm system, they provide the Response Service via radio alert and provide us with guards on request. The most common outcome for us is the Response Service to the alarm either being set off by the alarm system or occasionally when we have set off the alarm deliberately because of a developing situation which our staff are unable to deal with.

In these instances, the arrival of the Response Team is a huge relief. Not only are they very professional but their manner is reassuring and the feeling that the ‘problem will be resolved’ by them is huge. And they have not so far failed to resolve and deal with issues. Our location is close by a busy intersection and when an accident occurs, their response is comprehensive. They collect the Police from the local Police Station to ensure that the insurance company requirement for a Traffic Accident Report is met. They take down the details of the parties to the accident and they have even called for the ambulance to take the injured to the hospital. They arrange where the premises have been breached a guard to protect the premises. And this is usually in the early hours of the morning. The have even called for the Fire Brigade after a lightning strike started a fire.

 We started with an alarm system and the rest followed. A very comprehensive and well-delivered service.

Thank you Safeguard.”

On behalf of the Executive Board, Committee Members and the Triathlon community, please accept our sincere thanks to you and your team of fantastic Guards for the exceptional service provided at our event held at Borrowdale Brooke last Sunday. 

The weather was kind to us and the turn-out was greater than expected and everyone who participated had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed the courses we had laid out. Your staff carried out all duties assigned to them with professionalism and we have received many compliments and messages of thanks from all who participated. 

There are some photos that have been uploaded to our Facebook page which will go onto our website – please visit our pages and site in due course and feel free to use any images for your own social media platforms. 

We hope to continue to have the ‘Brooke Event” as an annual event on our season calendar in the future and trust that we can count on you for your continued support. We look forward to having the Safeguard Team onboard at Mount Pleasant Pool this coming Sunday 19th January.

I am from Victoria Falls, and our alarm system was installed by Safeguard Security and we also have the Safeguard Response Services. Of late we were having problems with our alarm system and it would sometimes trip on its own – we alerted Safeguard our service provider and they made sure to attend to the problem immediately. The technicians are very efficient, and as much as we feel that we are being a bother, they are always reassuring and even proceed to call and make follow-ups in order to ensure that our alarm system is not giving us any problems, as well as to check that we are safe. My parents travel a lot and I want to point out how safe I feel because we have Safeguard Security as our service provider. The office personnel are excellent and the reaction team are so efficient. What I love most is the fact that Safeguard communicates promptly and follows up in order to ensure customer satisfaction. Safeguard Victoria Falls staff are the best. 

I am satisfied with the 5-star service I have received from your company. A thumbs up from my family to the Safeguard Security company.

My sincere thanks to your team on kingsmead road this morning at 9am. Two guys had tried to cut me off in a close, possible hijacking or following into a yard. Your staff followed me to my destination and made sure I was safe. Thank you.

Johannah Joseph

My house is linked to your Rapid Response on 34 Cosham Avenue Borrowdale. I must say without blinking that your company is the best in the business. I love your response rate, and the courage that your teams always exhibit. I cannot see myself being protected or having any other security company cover my back.
We are learning from you. Thank you for a beautiful firm service.

On behalf of the organisers of the Art Festival, as well as the Wild Geese Management, I would like to thank you for the security provided at this year’s Art Festival.

As always, your team was professional and efficient, even when faced with some “tricky” customers as well as a much larger turnout than expected.

We hope to continue our relationship in the coming years with the annual Art Festival and look forward to working together again next year.

Please convey our thanks to Mr. Mallon and the other Safeguard Directors.

I would like to commend one of your guards. Matilda, she works at our complex on Robert Drive in Msasa, she is a day guard from Sunday to Thursday. Recently she informed us that she thought some of our staff were doing fraud, upon that tip-off we have caught 3 members of staff and an ex-employee doing jobs in our factory and using our materials without our knowledge. We thank Matilda very much for her honesty and help.

Kirsty

We are very grateful to your company for its excellent service in response to the incident at our house on the night of Thursday 2 January 2020.

Two men armed with pistols entered the house after forcing the verandah security gate. They threatened and assaulted my wife and me and stole cash. Fortunately, I was able to press our alarm panic button after a short struggle with one of them and they fled. Your control room promptly confirmed this alarm and your response team quickly arrived accompanied by ZRP officers. Both your team and the police officers performed their duties very efficiently and professionally.

We were very grateful for the assignment of the guard to patrol the grounds for the rest of the night. This guard, Mr Fungai, performed this duty very efficiently and professionally.

A member of your team had noted that we were unable to use our remote panic buttons as I had unfortunately not replaced their flat batteries and the next morning your technician arrived and installed and tested new batteries.

Your company’s service has been absolutely exemplary throughout this incident, as it has been throughout our time as your clients.

Outstanding Service by Daniel and Watson

I just wanted to let you know that I received outstanding service by Daniel and Watson today at 39 Kew Drive, Highlands. When electricity came back on my alarm went off and I did not hear the phone ring.  Daniel and Watson came almost immediately to check if I was ok. 

They were here so quickly and gave me outstanding service delivery which is rarely seen these days in Zim.  I told them how comforting it was to receive this and took their names down.  They were so efficient and I was amazed at how quickly they came to my gate to check that everything was ok. 

Please try and recognize these two outstanding members of staff that you have!  DANIEL AND WATSON.  

Thank you!

Avril Twyman

I have to say how professional the Safeguard crew was over the CANA Tournament.  They arrived timeously and looking smart, donned with smiles and great manners.  You afforded us the security of knowing our supporters and equipment were safe.  Thank you once again for your support of this event.
