Our existing alarm was installed by an out-of-state company (Monitronics) and their monitoring charges were extremely high.  I called GSSC to see if they could take over monitoring of our system and they discovered that the panel was "locked down" by Monitronics to prevent any change in programming (another reason to avoid Monitronics).  So we had to have a new control panel installed and decided to upgrade our system to cellular communication.  The new base charge for monitoring ($15.95/month) is less than half of what we were paying, so even with the installation charge and the cellular upgrade we will be saving a lot of money.  The sales person stopped by my house the same day I called and had a detailed quote for us the next day.  It took about 10 days to schedule an installation date, but the installer was professional and very thorough.  I only wish we would have found GSSC long ago.

VERY SATISFIED! THE SERVICE WAS ON A SATURDAY WITHIN A COUPLE HOURS. HE SPENT 30 MINUTES FIXING PROBLEM, DOUBLE CHECKED HIS WORK, AND WAS POLITE. HE OFFERED SUGGESTIONS FOR ADDING MORE SECURITY TO THE ATTACHED GARAGE.
