More and more police agencies are opting not to respond to alarm activations, unless they are first verified either by video verification or by an individual on scene. Bay Alarm’s response agents will respond to your alarm activation the moment it goes off. Once on scene, the agent can contact police to verify the emergency. If you happen to live in an area in which police do respond to unverified alarm activations, you may experience delayed response times as police will likely allocate resources to verified emergencies first. Or, in the case of a false alarm police dispatch, you may be fined. Our agents respond no matter what, and you will never incur a fine for a false alarm.
