We currently have an ADT alarm system - one door sensor, two room motion sensors and two control panels. They put their monthly charging up a silly amount last year and have now put the price up by over 10% this year.

Not really happy being ripped off so can anyone recommend a good alarm company that also does monitoring of said alarm ?

We have ADT and, surprisingly, when we moved out for a year when the house was gutted and re-built, I spoke to the Insurance company and when they thought we were just cancelling having an alarm on the policy it didn't push the policy price up, which I thought odd.

I used to sell burglar alarms and made lots of sales.

If no one was home, I would just leave a brochure on the bedside table.

Weirdly they are coming around tomorrow to quote. I will be paying £34 a month if I stay with ADT.

Another vote for Languard. Been with them 25 years. Always been reliable and reasonable.

My mother had a Languard alarm for many years and I dealt with them after she died. My experience was that they were friendly, responsive and provided a great service.
