Re: P1 - runaround?

["mac" <mac@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Gents,

Thanks all for the replies. P1 was still very resistant to defaulting the
code but, after about an hour of arguing, they agreed. Had I not been armed
with information from this group and some reading, I would never have
persisted.

You can bet I'll never have another monitored system. At least not w/P1.
They act more like a protection racket than security monitoring company.

Thanks again.
