You have to understand that we get this question and scenario presented
here VERY often. It is the unanimous opinion here, that being called on
your cell phone that your house is on fire, or that someone is beating
your wife to a pulp while you're in a "dead cellular area" or in a
business meeting with your phone turned off, is not at all a secure way
to do it. And what would you do if you DID get a call?  Rush home? And
then find that if the fire department had been called 20 minutes
earler, you might have saved your home? Or ......... Call the police or
fire department and tell them ....... what? That you got a call on your
cell phone from your alarm system but you don't know what's exactly
happening?

If you feel that the security of your family, home and posessions is
not worth a reliable connection to the authorities, of course
........... that's your decision, but not one that anyone here would
agree with.

If you have a security system, you have concerns...... why wouldn't you
carry through and pay .75 cents a day to make sure a proper response is
available, 24/7?
