Don't buy Slomins Security
I am an alarm professional and competitor of ADT and Slomins. All alarm companies are after one thing and one thing only - recurring revenue. That's the bottom line. Truthfully find a company that you are comfortable with and use them. Slomins and ADT have a lot of satisfied customers but make no mistake about it - they make money on free alarms. The way the industry works is simple, we charge you $20.00 per month monitoring and $500.00 installation. Free alarm companies charge you nothing up front and $35.00 per month. Do the math its not free!!! Contracts are the only way for an alarm company to do business, without such wording alarm companies are liable for everything. Try a small alarm business owner and find out that the service they offer might be to your liking. Check references and don't be swayed by expensive alarm advertising. Ask a friend who they use and do your research. Good luck!!

Don't buy Slomins Security
I've been a Slomin's alarm customer for almost 7 years now and I haven't had a complaint. The equipment and monitoring work, and I know this because once the cat set off the alarm (my husband locked her in our bedroom by accident and she set off the motion detector) and the police came to the apt., and another time my cleaning lady came a few hours before we were expecting her (we were supposed to be home when she showed up so we armed the alarm) and set off the alarm and the police came again. Every time I called Slomin's because we couldn't figured out what a beeping sound was for or for window decals, they helped via phone without incident. The sales rep told us that the system might not work without a standard landline, so we kept ours. Seems pretty cut and dry to me. Why would you sign a 5 year contract if you weren't pretty sure you weren't going to move? We knew we'd be in one place for at least 5 years which is why we did it. Some people expect everything for nothing, a bit unrealistic if you ask me. Slomin's is a cheap service. All I wanted was an alarm system with working monitoring, which I got. What else do you need if you're paying a small amount a month?
