Re: FA150C/4111XM Installer Manual

["Jim Rojas" <jrojas@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That's been a hot issue for many years. As long as your contract is
fulfilled, and you give them 30-60 days cancellation notice, you can legally
ask the alarm company to remove the installer code so you can monitor
elsewhere. They can however charge you a fee to do so. The best thing I can
tell you to do is to read your contract carefully. Make sure they don't own
the equipment. If all else fails, contact your local Better Business Bureau.
