My contract with ADT expired and I need your help to setup my system so when alarm is armed or disarmed I get notified, paged on my cell phone. Of course I want to be notified when someone is breaking in to. Thanks

How much are you paying me, Donna?
I notice you've received no assistance from the "professional" alarm installers here.
You might not be able to change anything without assistance from ADT. The "authorized dealer" may have locked you out of programming. If so, the easiest way to regain control of the system may be to replace the control panel. It's usually not difficult to replace them and most panels are fairly inexpensive, probably less than the cost of a service visit from the installing dealer.

Your panel may be capable of calling your cell phone, but it will not display, or give you a verbal message as to what is going on with your alarm system. All you will see your home number on the caller ID, and that's about it. If that is all you require, then give me a call. I will help you reprogram your system to do just that.

Thats because a professional alarm installer won't walk someone they don't know anything about into programming, regardless of what Donna says she may not be out of contract with ADT.
First of all, how would you know what a professional alarm installer would do?
Second, I couldn't care less if she's under contract with ADT (and neither could you, though you like to pretend otherwise).
You have no idea how I installed systems
Thats obvious, contracts seem to mean nothing to you unless they belong to you
Perhaps because he deals with them on a daily basis??
Of course _you_ wouldn't care.
Nor have you any idea how I have.
*Your* contracts with *your* infuriated ex-clients mean nothing to me. It's not my problem to help you. When your vict... er, customers call because they want to DIY rather than deal with your employer's poor service any more, my only concern is to give them what they need so they can get away from you.Note: The "you" above refers to your company's victims as well as those of a few other idiots. It doesn't include Olson since he doesn't install or service anything.
Oh, I figure you installed a few. How many did you install without a permit or the proper licensing again?
Heh! Sure, Bass. I'll bet the old phone is just ringing off the wall with Mark's customers wanting help to "get away" from him. I'll bet there's an even greater number calling Mark to find out how to "get away" from you.
Since you seem to know so much about Frank, why not post the name of the company he works for? "Go ahead, Bass. Make our day."
Better yet how many did he install between 1979 and 1983-84 when he was on probation, I wonder if he informed his customers about that at the time
Actually if someone who calls ever brings up this newsgroup they always wonder who Psycho Mike is, they rarely mention RLB which is why I've always thought the s*it Mike does ends up being counterproductive
I've actually been wondering about two things:
- If (as Bass has stated) a large number of the DIY crowd "lurk" here (as I did for many months before actually posting), how many actually wind up shopping at his store?
- I do agree in that what Mike (Group-Moderator) does is often "counter-productive" (as you put it), but why does he engage in the same sales tactics here (contrary to the FAQ) as Bass does? I see Jim Rojas posts here often, and I have yet to see him post anything that contravenes the FAQ.
More than many here think but less than RLB will brag about :)
Mike doesn't cut down the industry he was part of and Mike won't throw his mother under the bus just to get a sale.
Mike's an idiot but he's no Bass
I fear Rojas, everyone here fears Rojas....I've seen grown men pull their own heads off to avoid Rojas...he's...he's......
I have to go now
He be a "fine feller there" as they say up country way hereabouts....(he is, and I also gotta be sure to say it if I want that boat ride come this spring...:))

Well, you're almost right.
Jim is a former New Yorker.
There ... people call the them "Goodfellas" :-)
If you're going for a boat ride, I'd suggest you make sure there isn't a gun in the boat and that you sit facing him. Just be careful. He may try to make the excuse that he's got to bring a gun along because of the alligators ..... but don't believe him. Rumor has it ...... Jim always returns from those Everglade boat rides .......ALONE!
