Re: CPI Security?

["Bob Worthy" <securinc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Instead of trying to get the system for free, which free doesn't exist, buy
it outright and there will not be a problem, unless you get sticker shock
when you find out what a security system really cost. There should be no
credit needed. They (CPI) needs to recoup their investment so if there is no
investment on their part...Whalla!! The "free" is not free, it is a payment
plan, just like when you buy furniture, they run your credit and you make
payments. Get away from the "free" and you will get away from the credit
issue. People will fall for anything. What did old PT say, "There's one born
every minute."
