A.P.I. Alarm
If you are canadian and are interested in getting an alarm, go with a.p.i alarm. alarm force uses shitty equipment and its ugly too…api offers everything that alarm force does except they use trusted equipment – DSC is what i have. alarm force dont have line seizure either which means that if the phone line is off the hook, their monitoring station wont get a signal.
Im pretty sure a.p.i is the largest canadian owned monitoring station and i have been more than happy to be with them. clean work and expert service. they are ulc listed as well. alarm force doesnt even have their own monitoring station…its cheap equipment, thats why they can offer you $25/month and free install…you get what you pay for…pay a little more get a lot more…adt, chubb, and a.p.i is what i recommend…definitely NO alarm force. but again if you are canadian, stay canadian…obama says dont buy canadian, so why should we buy american…do what you want but its better to have peace of mind than uncertainty that comes with alarm force…two way voice is bs anyways…it only works by the key pad…what if your not there…a.pi. adt or chubb

Poor Alarm Company
Alarm Force is a great marketing company, but a poor alarm company. The equipment is rented, minimal, and poor quality. The 2 way voice is a gimmick that is easily defeated. Listen to the words carefully when they advertise…they have good lawyers and just barely avoid false advertising. I think I will stick with reputable companies like Sears that installs real branded equipment that I own, and they care about my business because they have a lot more at stake than my monitoring money.

Wish Never with Alarm Force
I have recently finished with a 3 yr contract and returned all equipment. I have my termination letter and UPS proof of delivery. Alarm Force claims that I did not return everything. I wish I took a photo of the box to prove I did. Now I have a bill for missing equipment for $291.36 and sent me to collections. This is stealing and harrassment. I have filed a complaint with BBB, Market Place and other blogs. Please do not get Alarm Force get a real security company. Also, customer service reps are rude and this usually comes from top down management. After researching this company I wish I never gave them my business and hard earned money.
