We use Suddenlink, we've never had a system before, they seem fine.  Except there is an issue we need to address and I've been too lazy.  We get called about an alarm frequently, even when the system isn't set.  If we miss the call from Suddenlink, they dispatch the police, not good. 4951

I have had ADT for like 10 years.  Only disappointment I have had is the cost they want to charge me to upgrade.  It is cheaper for a new customer than a long term customer. 4951

I have a security system in place that I don't pay monthly fees to and it was easy to set up by myself! It's those arlo cameras at best buy. They are very easy to use. They have magnetic mounts for inside your house too that make it very easy to put them places and reposition them. They are motion sensing and you can have them notify you, anytime they sense motion, directly to your phone. They were priceless when I had that bum squatting in my house. They are weatherproof too and you can mount them outside of your house. I have had one in my backyard for about 6 months now and it still looks brand new. It also has nightvision! A pack of 4 cost me 500 bucks. I would reccomend getting rechargable batteries though otherwise youll have to buy a new set every couple of months.  4951

I'm going with kman on this one. The response time for a burglary is 4 minutes. Most burglaries take less than 2 minutes. Ask your phone company about tying in your alarm system to your phone. I've heard some alarm central boxes now come with cell phone capacity, though at the moment I can't think of which. Dan the Handyman 4951

@cowboysfan0314, Happy New Year first of allEmoticonI use Suddenlink.  If you already have them for cable you can get a cheaper price.  They do a great job, been using them for 12 years.  Every year they fax in our contract to our insurance company too, so we get a discount with that.
 
@Fallon:
Happy New Year to you also Emoticon I will have to check out their prices. Thanks for the info. 4951

@DanStanton: Simpli safe is one of them that use cell phone capacity.  I got one and for the money it is ok because you can use it as a local alarm also and it is very easy to install.  The alarm is not very loud though even with the extra siren you can purchase.  I think it would be a great alarm for a apartment but not really a house.
