Re: Review of www.alarmrelay.com monitoring service

NO I HAVE NO AFFILIATION WITH ALARMRLAY, EXCEPT BEING A CUSTOMER. I AM
AN IT MANAGER IN NEW JERSEY.  I THOUGHT I WOULD BE POLITE AND POST A
SMALL REVIEW TO HELP ADD SOMETHING TO THIS BOARD SINCE EVERYONE HAS
BEEN SO KIND IN HELPING ME AND RESPONDING TO MY POSTS. TO THE BEST OF
MY ABILITY, SINCE I DID NOT HAVE A STOP WATCH, I ESTIMATED THE TIMES
WITHOUT ADDING ANY EXAGGERATION. I HAVE NOTHING TO GAIN OR LOSE IF
ANYONE DECIDES TO USE ALARMRELAY OR NOT.
TWENTY SECONDS NOT POSSIBLE? YOU TELL ME. MY WIFE SET THE GLASS BREAKS
OFF IN THE KITCHEN. AS SOON AS I HEARD THE VOICE ENNUCIATOR SAY
"BURGLARY, THIS IS A PROTECTED AREA", I HURRIEDLY WALKED TO THE PHONE
TWENTY FEET AWAY, AS I PICKED UP THE HAND SET ON THE CORDLESS THE PHONE
RANG, I ANSWERED, IT WAS THE ALARM OPERATOR. SAME WITH THE SECOND
INSTANCE, EXCEPT I WAS PROBABLY MORE LIKE THIRTY FEET FROM THE PHONE.
AS FOR THE POLICE RESPONSE I KNOW SOME OF THAT HAS TO DO WITH LUCK, IF
THERE WAS NOT A PATROL CAR IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA THE RESPONSE TIME
WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SO GOOD. BUT I HAVE CONVEYED A PERSONAL EXPERIENCE
NOT AN ADVERTISEMENT.

CONSIDERING HOW MANY POSTS END AS FLAME WARS ON THIS BOARD I SHOULD
HAVE EXPECTED THE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK.
OH HERE IS MY QUESTION: HOW MANY POSTED A NEGATIVE FEEDBACK AND SELL
THEIR OWN MONITORING SERVICES, I KNOW MY MOTIVATION FOR THE POST, WHAT
WAS YOURS?

IT'S A SHAME; YOU GUYS HAVE A GREAT BOARD HERE WITH MANY KNOWLEDGEABLE
AND HELPFUL MEMBERS. BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE CONSTANT BICKERING AND
ACCUSATIONS OF 'MURDER' AND OTHER NONSENSE REALLY DETRACT WHAT WOULD
OTHERWISE BE A VERY PROFESSIONALLY RUN BOARD.

A NOTE FOR NEW MEMBERS: YOU WILL PROBABLY NOTICE NOW SINCE I POSTED
THIS REBUTTAL I WILL PROBABLY END UP ON SOME PEOPLES 'HIT LIST' AND
WILL ALWAYS NOW ATTRACT A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF NEGATIVE RESPONSES OR SOME
TYPE OF CHARACTER ATTACK TO ALL MY POSTS.
