Hi Gareth, I always treat these calls as suspicious and tell them I have a very expensive, sophisticated system - just in case. Some mention ADT, but are they part of ADT marketing? David David Raphael 072 065 7223

Personally I do not like cold canvassing, and upfront questions whether I have an alarm, especially if it is a private non traceable call. I refuse to divulge any information whatsoever. On this note there is not a thing as "free alarms" You PAY. Firstly you have to sign a monitoring contract which is very profitable for the alarm firm. Secondly this so called free alarms often specifies only minimum equipment and does not take in consideration your specific needs. Rather buy your own equipment, in particular control box and you can move the monitoring anywhere anytime. CAVEAT EMPTOR (let the buyer beware) Regards, Frank No virus found in this incoming message.
