Don't try this option, it won't stop the alarm.

It sound like there alarm is broken and when you call them to fix it they will give you a code. After entering this code you get 7 days to get them to come out and fix it if you don't it will start going of randomly till it annoys you so much that you will beg them to fix it as this did happen to me although I just got them to fix it straight away.
If it goes on through the night you could call the complain to the council.

Do what I did with my next door but one neighbours, get a pair of ladders, unscrew the box and take the leads and battery out.
I wouldn't there is a good chance there is a back up battery in the inside box and an indoor alarm speaker, generally speaking cutting alarm system wires has a habit of driving the things mental as well, meaning it will go off until it runs out of power which will take days.

Or break in seeing as no-one seems to care about the alarm, and take what you want
It's the perfect crime!
Maybe granny Davis was checking in on the house for them, she set the alarm on her way out, tripped fell and now cant get up or call for help. Her only option is to wave her arms to trigger the motion sensor on the primed alarm.
She lays there on the cold tiles mustering the strength to wave her arms every few hours to alert someone but no-one cares in the modern society. It could be a burglary, it could be a faulty alarm or it could just be poor granny Davis waving her life away!

Wow, that's cold . . . .
I had this happen recently and was told that contacting the police is the best thing as they can get an engineer and force entry - the owner then gets the bill. The guy who told me is a landlord and said its really frowned on these days due to the hassle police get when this happens so they tend to do something about it after a few calls.
Instead of lying there doing nothing she should get on the internet and make a thread about how nobody cares any more, possibly including a Daily Mail article linking the untimely death of old people to Muslim rape gangs.
phone the councils environmental health lot, if it's continuous thorugh day and night they'll send somone out with a lock smith to disable it, usualy they send out someone to investigate next day.

Serious reply - get the police (non emergency number) onto it. We had this problem some years ago where someone about 5 houses down the road had this barking dog alarm set on a loop. Went on for days. We finally called the police and they knocked out their front door to turn the alarm off. Suggest you do the same.
