there are also other firms that will not take a penny off you upfront and still provide a full 24hr callout service but expect to pay a higher charge if you do need to call them out .....

We charge 82.25 for the 1st yr on a takeover then it drops to 67 quid a year, doesnt include parts but does 24hr callout

if that r&m includes any labour used no matter how many calls, both for in and out of office hours, then thats a very good deal and the o/p should bite your arm off for it imo.

Wow, thanks all,

This is a great forum, I have been wondering about this subject for a while now and have had all my answers within 24 hours of posting a question on this forum, so thankyou very much.

I have pretty much done a u-turn on my first post, considering all the points made I think a contract is a pretty good idea. I guess I will have to be very clear about what I am covered for.

Regarding the phone dialer add-on box. Does anyone know how much this would be? and would I be able to arm and disarm the alarm via telephone?

Thanks again

[james.wilson]

some systems can be armed / disarmed via the dialler, and its a feature of some of the newer domestic panels. You can also do it with diallers that offer outputs etc, but this isnt as 'clean' a solution.

Costs depend on what your fitting to, and distance to telephone line.
