Alarm Service

I have been a customer for over 7 years and for the first while was very satisfied. Yes they supply the basic two contacts and motion sensor and install it for free. When it was installed it cost me for two additional sensors at $70 a piece. The deal is you supply the batteries. How many batteries could they need? Over the years I have been forced to purchased a propriety system battery from AlarmForce and literally dozens of lithium sensor batteries at a few bucks each, each sensor use two and my grandson's toys last longer. If you use touch tone dialing as most do, you can inadvertently arm the system when making a call. I am now contemplating adding a couple of more sensors on new doors and windows that were just changed. But after reading the reviews on here I realize that I am tired of buying batteries for someone else's alarm system having just run out for more today, as I have another low battery warning. I also believe part of the problem is the equipment is outdated. I think I will be bundling my services together with another provider who offers state of the art equipment and monitoring as well as batteries that last years. Thank you to all those who left their experiences here, I will now get ready to have a hard time moving away from Alarm Force.

Approximate cost of services:
$35.00
