We had service 2007-2010, which was fine. Since then, our experience has bee horrific and we're not even customers of Firstwatch. We moved out of the neighborhood in 2010 and cancelled service then. I have a service cancellation confirmation in writing from Firstwatch. We moved back in 2011. In 2015, Firstwatch began billing us for monthly service, stating we signed up as a result of reporting a suspicious character in the neighborhood. Clearly a "reporting" of neighborhood activities is a far cry from establishing a "contract" with a provider. Nevertheless, after 6 months of providing documents to the company and filing a BBB complaint, Firstwatch agreed and resolved the matter internally. That said, their response to the BBB complaint, faulted us the client, versus them for their deceptive trade practices. I would never recommend Firstwatch under their current management.

They monitor your alarm but they will also have someone check your house and pick up the mail while you are away. They stand out because of that sort of service. They charge extra, but you just have to call them when you are leaving town and they will take care of everything.
