All I'm asking is whether or not people can recommend a reliable company? We have used ADT in the past and their response time was immediate... So immediate that within 2 minutes of the alarm going off, there were police at my house. As long as the alarm is sent to a police station/fire station, I'm about 2 blocks away from fire and 5 blocks away from police.

I'm unhappy with their professionalism at this time though, and I'd rather not pay $800 to install an alarm when their staff can't even get here in time. I hope this makes sense.
