The £7.50 A Month Alarm.

Featured Replies

Can I ask you guys. 

 

Why do you insist on taking the mick out of the £7.50 a month alarm. 

 

Whats actully wrong with it? 

 

A*T do a £99 alarm which if you spread it over 16months its like £6.19 a month?    Which basically all they are doing is a finance offer with the customer to spread the cost. 

 

They do Finance Offers with a lot customers as you may know that a £300+ alarm can be expensive but spreading that over 12/14/16/24 months can then seem more flexible and might mean you actully secure your property.

You do know the £99 is just the install, right?

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.


Yep plus the additional monitoring charge, no monitoring, no £99 alarm.

I got Leaflet from ADT saying £99 Alarm fitted from ADT. 

 

That would infer that they would fit alarm for £99.  *Cough SCAM* 

 

Again I just wanted find out why they seems to so much a bad thing about £7.50 a month alarm.   As the alarm is very basic and comes with like 1 PIR and 1 door contact. 

Got a link to more information on this £7.50 alarm? not having all the info doesn't allow for an informed opinion.

Ah so ADT are still up there usual tricks. 

Its quite simple really £7.50 devaluations the industry, one breakdown under warranty and your running at a loss in the first year, two breakdowns in warranty and you may as well be paying the customer to have your system. Anyone that understands business understands that profit has to be made just to stay a float

I try find a link but I just wanted to find out roughly why they seem to be so much of a £7.50 alarm is a bad thing.   As the Alarm like £120 but I think most customers go for upgrades and etc. 

It's not a trick, and you'd have to be pretty thick to think the cost stopped @ the £99.00 installation with a co that doesn't do bells only, still great value btw.

If you go on the website they quote £99 key holder response, but you must click or call to get a quote, that's when you get the small print. No tricks, it's just marketing.
