dave36 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 Hi had this alarm set up for a while, (it was installed when we moved in ) but have noticed that on the phone bill is a call every night to an 0844 number, which is apparently an alarm test call? sounds logical, but is there any way of disabling it please?

Delete the number and it won't call Is it under contract? Monitoring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sixwheeledbeast Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I would assume the system is monitored, if so you should contact your installer to see what they can do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave36 Posted September 29, 2020 Author Share Posted September 29, 2020 the alarm was on a contract with previous owner of building, but we haven't got it on a contract.. i have tried changing and deleting number in communications/telecoms section , but i cant find any reference to this 0844 number. however its obviously in there somewhere though. It looks like it only makes the call once a day if thats any help. any advice/help gratefully received Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james.wilson Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 As above its probably a test call under tel no 1. Its a requirement for grade 2 communicators to test the alarm path at least once every 24 hours to prove it could use it if needed Quote securitywarehouse Security Supplies from Security Warehouse Trade Members please contact us for your TSI vetted trade discount.
