...and realistically, why should they?

Rather than "sitting drinking tea" as one respondent put it, the
police
spend their shifts doing a job fundamentally more important than
troubleshooting someone's dodgy alarm system.

The vast majority of times an alarm triggers, it is a false alarm. In our
housing development, we get an alarm going off every other day...
Personally, I'm happier knowing that the police are not running around
after
these sorts of nuisances.

Ultimately, my view is that if an alarm user is not prepared to pay for an
intamac style private monitoring service, then they should not be expecting
the publicly funded Police force to provide the service for them f.o.c.
