I would like to buy this alarm. Just one question. It works with any cell service not just Verizon right? Thanks

As far as I know you have to use Verizon for the PumpAlarm, but it will send a text to you no matter what provider you use. I have AT&T; for cell service. I did a one year $30 with Verizon that renews on my credit card annually.

I have 4 of these units monitoring pumping stations, It is already set up. You pay the $30 yearly fee for text messaging. I don't think you can change carriers. Works excellent

Yes, the alarm will contact any cellular carrier. The unit just uses Verizon to send out the text messages.

Yes it has an alarm. I'm not sure what consumer cellular is - I have AT&T; service and it works fine. It was a replacement for an old phone (same). People complain about it shutting down and that's how my old one died. First replacement I bought here had poor sound quality (people said I sounded like I was talking through a tunnel), second replacement arrived today and seems to work fine. This is my fourth phone of this model, good features if you, like me, dislike touchscreen and do not want to carry a data plan. Hope this helps!

I have connected mine to Vitex security system and access it through that and Alarm.com. It works fine.

I used http://alarmsim.com/ seems to work ok. I'm not thrilled with the cell performance of the fortress unit but it does seem to get the job done.

Good morning. I regretted having bought this alarm. It was a waste of money and would have returned it if only I could at that time. I hope this answers a question in your mind about the reliability of this sensor.

We use the system with any phone someone has in the house. But you need to plug the phone cord directly into the unit and not into the phone. If you want to use the telephone you must disconnect the alarm and replug into the phone. This is a very good alarm unit but some people do have problems setting it up. Once you figure it out you can call you home from any location and receive information about the temperature in the house, and power.

Yes, the smart phone app is hosted by Alarm.com. We primarily use Verizon, but also have AT&T and T-Mobile available as well. Thanks!

Hi,I live next to Venezuela in Guyana, and it works great here. All the parts and features work as they should.Also, once you have GSM cellular network, the alarm notification will work as well.

It is a Verizon cell phone and it works very good. I have one also and you keep your number. Are you with Verizon Wireless?? You can test it and call your friends and ask how do I sound and don't tell them you got a new cell phone. To do it yourself dial *228 then 1 then * 228 2 Now your ready to talk without Verizon doing it for you.Thank YouTodd

In order for it to call out if an alarm is tripped you have to have it connected to a landline. Once it connected though, you can program it to call a cellphone. (I've had a few false alarms and got calls on my cell). Hope this helps!

It needs a landline for set up and operation. It can call out alarms to any other landline or cell phone. You can call in from any type phone.

This device only works with companies that are GSM, CDMA does not work, which is the case with Verizon.

For it to call a phone number you do, alarm will still work with out phone line, it just can't call out. Amazon does have wireless phone jacks that plug into power outlet that work pretty good if you have a room with out a phone jack.

G. Larsen .. My alarm was acting strange at one point until the cable company ( Bright house ) replaced the cable modem for a upgrade of the obsolete unit .. the tech said the old unit was momentarily blinking off .. while this was not detectable using the phone it triggered the alarm.

Eyezon offers their own service from a (UL/ULC listed) company called CMS in Canada (they cover the US also). Its $8.95/mo... and I've been really happy with it. Phone rings within a few seconds of the alarm going off. I've heard a few others support it also, but the service direct from Eyezon is hard to beat. Company was accepted by my insurance and I'm getting about a $150/yr discount... which is more than paying for the service.
