I wanted to get a security alarm in me home, ADT took money from my account without installing the system. When I called about replacing the money they said it would be 30 days but it is over 30 days now.

I’m curious about how much they charge per month. Also if you know the installation fee that would be nice. And if you know how long their contracts are. I called ADT and they refused to give me prices without sending someone over and I dont have an apartment yet, but I need to plan my monthly budget.
Thanks.
I do have permission to have the alarm in, the apartment is pre-wired for it.

I’m interested in installing a home security system, but am unsure about which kind to get. I keep coming across a company called Protect America that has good prices but I see bad reviews on the Better Business Bureau website. Any opinions about this company compared to ADT, Brinks, or Life Shield? Opinions please. My girlfriend is 7 months pregnant with our first child. I’m interested in installing one soon. Thanks.

‘Tis the season for eating, shopping and being merry, but unfortunately some people aren’t always filled with holiday cheer. Car break-ins and thefts always tend to increase during the holiday shopping season.

What do you do to keep yourself safe during holiday shopping season?

ADT distributed a press release with some tips:

•Park in a well-lit area as close to your destination as possible. Parking lots and structures are typically the most dangerous places at the mall. If you are shopping alone and feel uncomfortable walking to your car at night, ask mall security officers for an escort. Consider valet parking during the holiday season when many malls offer free or reduced price valet parking. Look for security cameras and try to park near them. Also, opt for walkways leading to malls and parking lots that have security cameras installed.

•Choose to do your holiday shopping at malls that take security seriously. Shopping destinations with regular mall security patrols and visible surveillance cameras provide an added layer of security and a deterrent to criminals.

•Take extra care when returning to your car. If you notice anyone suspicious in the parking area you can use your keys as a weapon. If needed, you can also use your car’s alarm system by pushing the panic button on your alarm remote control or car horn to draw attention.

My condo is pre-wired for security monitoring (like ADT, brinks), but the service isn’t actually included in the association fees (meaning I’d have to pay for it myself).

What else can I do with the system? I’d like to be able to get some level of security out of the system. Is there a free service I could use? Or can I buy something that would automatically do the 911 call if the alarm goes off?

I have an alarm system. It’s an ADT system. I have absoutely no use for it. Can I sell it or pawn it or something?

For home security, which company is better – ADT or Brinks.

We have pets in our house, but they are usually outside if we are away (weather permitting).

Also, some of our doors are a bit old and may not close all the way, so my family would need an alarm system that will tell which zones/sensors are faulted (I know Brinks has some systems that don’t have any kind of display).

And also, on a side note, what is the difference between "armed stay" and "armed night stay?"

I’ve searched online; ebay, adt.com, battery websites, along with walmart, and local electronic stores, and no one has the type of battery that I need for my adt system. Now what should I do! I can’t get ahold of anyone knows either. The 800 number doesn’t even know!! How crazy is that!!
