I have a retired Dr friend who asked me to put in 2 Water Leak Sensors which I did because he could get a discount on his Home Owners Policy thru USAA .
OK no issues send him a letter to give to his Carrier but no that's not what they wanted.
He calls me and says his Resideo Total Connect User name has to be a certain way so USAA can pull data from the sensors in his house.
What the hell are they thinking

Appears USAA and Resideo have decided to join Forces to offer this discount and way they do it is by
going on to USAA site then click a button go on special Resideo site enter your Total Connect User Name and Password .
So they can pull the data.
Sorry USAA NO WAY .
What exactly are you pulling and how often are you pulling it. ??? What are you using it for??
This has all the earmarks of Big Brother and needs investigated . there is too much data being given away in peoples hands who have no business having it.
Just one more reason I have been slowly getting away from Resideo and Total Connect because all Honeywell is lately is Honey Fail. This is a big one.
