Re: bought a new house - changing security code, etc



No.  They were right. To a point.
It will dial the number stored in it with the account number in it.   If you
close out the account It will dial but will not find the account.  I'd
disconnect the line so they cant modify your panel.  You can get a new
supplier or monitoring station or replace the panal.
