“A relative of mine had ADT and I decided I need it also, so I called them. So far, it’s been fine. The lady that sold me the service made a statement at the time that if I was going to change my windows and stuff like that out, there’d be no problem, they’d come and take them off and put them back on once I had the windows changed at no charge. When I was about to have that done, they told me there would be a charge. But once I explained to them the lady told me there wouldn’t be, they didn’t charge me for it. The installers were great. My system beeps and all that type of stuff when I come in and leave the house or when I set it but I’ve never had any cause to have the police here or any false alarms. I’m happy with them. The system detected several attempted break-ins that scared the burglar each time. We love our system and feel completely safe. The system also detects fire and smoke. We love having a system that calls us when we are away. ADT gives us full peace of mind when we are home or away.”

“Getting ADT has been the best thing we have done. When we go to bed at night we feel safer knowing if someone tries to get in, that the alarm is on, and will go off. We not only we will hear it, but we will get a call from the company asking us if we are all right. Knowing someone is right there is important to us.”
