brizee Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 i got aphone call at 5.30 am from a private saying alarm goin off and cant stop it, said theyve disconnected panel battery and mains and it still rings. i get there at 6.30 to find theyve cut all the cables outside the panel, blown all the fuses cos the didnt wanna wake the neighbours. when i pull up , only the alarm of the house opposite is ringing. turns out it wasnt theirs at all. didnt charge for repairs, just made sure everyone they knew heard about it.
golfball Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 You should have charged for the repair cost of new bits, voiding the waranty/maintanance contract due to unauthorised opening, you could have also replaced the panel due to unknown damage caused by the above, LESSON to be LEARNT if in doubt Call the engineer out let the alarm time out DO NOT BE TEMPTED TO TRY AND FIX IT YOUR SELF Life is like a box of choclates.....if you dont get there first your left with all the naff ones
leesutton Posted July 9, 2006 Posted July 9, 2006 You should have charged them as you was kind enough to attend to there call and sort it out for them lee Lee Sutton E-Mail: leesutton@centurianfire.co.uk Website: www.centurianfire.co.uk Phone: 0845 094 9870 CENTURIAN FIRE & SECURITY (part of centurian group limited)
