MrHappy Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I assume galaxy 16 ? if adt are too dear for you ask a smaller co. ? Mr Veritas God Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJames Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 There is only two ways to reset the alarm 1. You get a reset code from ADT no one else can do it as they wont have the seed code 2. You get a local co in to default and reprogram it under noncontract we would cost more than £90 but then again once reprogrammed it wont need reseting when your wife goes through the wrong door Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rulland Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 oh right i thought it might of been a box standard reset code? which someone might have or no a way around it Unfortunately it's not as simple as that, it requires an anticode reset via the installer-ADT, or a default/reprogram via another alarm company, fortunately I dont penalise customers who make the simple mistake of using the wrong door!.

MrHappy Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 fortunately I dont penalise customers who make the simple mistake of using the wrong door!. I assume Its on "engineer " reset due to being a (former) monitored system, but your free to think that compliance with a standard is being "penalised" because they liable to to refuse an anticode reset to a system which provide no income is wrong...

lumia Posted March 25, 2012 Author Share Posted March 25, 2012 i was tied in a 3 year contract a few years ago with them but just cancelled after that as the system i had was old etc all i need is 1 simple code and well basically its a con just to pay in the excess of £100 for a 4 digit code which they told me will be done within seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rulland Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I was waiting for that, lol. We dont know the 'age' of the system, so we also dont know what regs applied at the time it was installed-we also know that: ADT are renowned for their very good customer relations-past and present-sarcasm!. ADT will charge a hefty premium for various services-fact!. And judging by the installs I have have seen from them, they are very much below the standard one would expect of a national. There are 'standards' and there are morals-and I for one have seen very little from ADT as far as their customers go tbh.
