About Alarm Research, Inc.

Alarm Research, Inc. is a regional security and alarm systems provider headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The company offers design, installation, and servicing of burglar alarms, fire alarms, surveillance cameras, access control, and related safety systems for residential, commercial, and industrial clients. Public records and state vendor lists associate the phone number (505) 291-9456 and the address 2639 Texas St NE, Albuquerque, NM 87110 with Alarm Research, Inc., confirming that this is the business tied to the number shown in the descriptor.

A charge labeled something like “IN *PROSPEROUS VEN 505-2919456 NM” is likely processed through Intuit (the “IN *” prefix) on behalf of this company, using a billing descriptor or internal label such as “Prosperous Ven” rather than the full legal name. This charge could result from a one‑time installation or service visit, equipment purchase, or from recurring monitoring or maintenance fees for a security or fire alarm system at your home or business. In some cases, the amount may represent a deposit, partial payment, or a batch of service work billed at once.

If you are unsure about this charge, start by checking any recent invoices, contracts, or service reports from your alarm or security provider and see if the phone number (505) 291‑9456 or the Albuquerque address matches what you have on file. You can also call the number shown in the descriptor, which reaches Alarm Research, Inc., and ask them to look up the transaction using your name, service address, and the date and amount of the charge. When contacting them, have your statement handy, clarify whether it is a one‑time or recurring charge, and request a copy of the invoice by email. If you cannot verify the charge with the merchant, you should then contact your card issuer to dispute the transaction and request a new card number if fraud is suspected.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my statement show “IN *PROSPEROUS VEN 505-2919456 NM” instead of Alarm Research, Inc.?

Many smaller businesses use third‑party processors like Intuit/QuickBooks, which prepend descriptors such as “IN *” and sometimes use an internal label rather than the full legal name. In this case, the phone number (505) 291‑9456 maps to Alarm Research, Inc. in Albuquerque, so the charge is likely for alarm or security services from that company even though the descriptor shows “Prosperous Ven.”

What kinds of services from Alarm Research, Inc. typically result in a card charge?

Charges from Alarm Research, Inc. may come from installation of security or fire alarm systems, service calls or repairs, purchase of equipment such as panels or sensors, or ongoing monitoring and maintenance fees for an existing alarm contract. Review any recent work orders or contracts to see which type applies to you.

Could this be a recurring monitoring fee from Alarm Research, Inc.?

Yes. Many alarm companies bill monitoring and maintenance monthly, quarterly, or annually. If you have monitoring through Alarm Research, Inc., check your contract or recent invoices for the agreed billing interval and typical amount to confirm whether this charge matches your regular service fee.

How can I verify exactly what this specific charge from Alarm Research, Inc. is for?

Call the phone number shown in the descriptor—(505) 291‑9456—and ask for billing. Provide the date, amount of the charge, and the name and address associated with your alarm account. They can typically pull up the transaction, tell you whether it was for installation, service, equipment, or monitoring, and send you a detailed invoice by email.

What should I do if I don’t recognize any alarm services at my address but see this charge?

First confirm with anyone else on your account or at your business or household that they didn’t authorize alarm work or monitoring. If no one recognizes it, call Alarm Research, Inc. at (505) 291‑9456 and ask them to search by your card’s last four digits and the transaction date. If they cannot match the charge to you, contact your card issuer immediately to dispute the charge and request that your card number be replaced.

Can I pay Alarm Research, Inc. by card only once, or will this set up automatic payments?

Depending on how the payment was taken, a one‑time card payment may be processed only for that invoice, or your card may be stored on file for recurring monitoring fees. When you authorize payment, ask whether the card will be kept for future automatic billing and request a paper or email invoice if you prefer to pay manually each cycle.

How do I cancel monitoring or ongoing services that result in recurring charges from Alarm Research, Inc.?

Review your service agreement for termination terms, required notice period, and any early‑termination fees. Then contact Alarm Research, Inc. directly at their office number and request to cancel monitoring or service in writing (email or letter). Ask for written confirmation of the cancellation date and when recurring billing will stop, and keep a copy of all correspondence for your records.

How do I request a refund or correction if I believe Alarm Research, Inc. billed me incorrectly?

Contact Alarm Research, Inc. billing with your invoice number, statement details, and an explanation of the issue—for example, duplicate billing, incorrect amount, or work not performed. Request a revised invoice or refund, and ask how long adjustments typically take to appear on your card. If you cannot resolve the issue directly, you can escalate by disputing the charge with your card issuer, providing copies of your correspondence and any supporting documents.
