Oh thankst for that webiste

How do you know if your installer has had training? Is it against the law to install CCTV camera without training? ie like a electrician.

IS this just for a burgular alarm or CCTV as well?

This this still legal in the Uk. How do I use this legally.

Hi I live in a place where there is a row of houses, Behind our garden is a place where we all park our cars. I have idiot neighbours who have parties all the time and bring over friends to leave rubbish, vomit, and literally trash the place. I spoke to the people on all the neighbours behalf and I am sure I'm the target. I have people standing behind my fence making noises and when I look around back they are gone. My car has got damaged. There are a lot rubbish at the back of my house. Obviously I cant prove it is them, but it is a coincidence that all these things are happening to me, after having arguments with this particular neighbour. I have asked an CCTV installer to come to install a long range camera with microphone so that I can film who is making nuisance noise at the back of my house. The installer knew all this, and went to buy the camera kit and fitted it. Great night time view and quality of the image. I can see all my garden, and behind my garden, and see my car parked up. So I am not complaining about that. But the guy forgot to buy the camera with a microphone. He said it is illegal to have microphone on the camera and record sound on a surveillance system. Is this right? He has given me the receipt where he has brought the kit from. He said if I want to return, I have to pay extra if I want the kit taken down. I would have fought on that, but I really do like the image on the cameras, I wasnt sure if he was telling the truth, and I really dont want to lose time to get another installer in and wait for new cameras kit. I then went to Maplin and they told me to go on Swanns website to speak to their sales team, who told me to buy microphone to put on the camera. 1st- Is the installer right. Is it illegal to have a microphone on the CCTV system? 2- Here is my camera, what microphone do I get. 3- how would I attach the microphone onto the camera? 4- Is there a law that I can use, so that I can get the installer back out to fit on the microphone? link to my camera http://www.tradexguru.com/outdoor-waterproof-high-powered-nightvision-4-led-ir-array-700-tvl-cctv-security-surveillance-camera-ir-cut-6mm-wide-angle-lens.html Any advice would be great.
