requested edit

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

The Moni Smart Security does now exist anymore and has been rebranded to Brinks Home Security. It would be beneficial to change the name or make a new page with the title of Brinks Home Security. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jennaford (talk • contribs) 12:55, 26 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request

Part of an edit requested by an editor with a conflict of interest has been implemented.

Brinks Home Security

Please change Brink's to Brinks throughout as the correct name does not have the apostrophe.

Please add the following information to the bottom of the article

Monitronics International, Inc. announced a merger with Ascent Capital Group, Inc. in September 2019, which ended the company’s financial recapitalization period. This event also positioned EQT Credit and Brigade Capital Management as the largest shareholders in Monitronics. The company also appointed a new board of directors. <cite investor site?> The merger also gave the company access to $295 million to support the execution of its long-range business plan^[1].

As Brinks Home Security, the company won the J.D. Power award for Best in Customer Satisfaction with pro-installed home security systems two years in a row (2018, 2019).^[2]

Edit request partially implemented

Y I've removed the apostrophe from every instance except the Wikilink, because that article uses it.
N The requested prose was not added, because it is promotional in nature.

This should clarify the phrase
