    When I purchased my new house it came with an ADT alarm system and all it needed was to be activated, which I did. And then because of an incident across the street from me I decided to add security cameras. Today the cameras and a DVR were installed and connected to my PC. The installer was great and everything is working great. I feel very secure with everything ADT has installed in my new home.

    When the installer came, he promised me that I could have my alarm on "Away" with my dog home because the motion detectors were able to differentiate between a 14 lb dog and a human. My dog set the alarm off twice. When I called customer service both times, they told me that it was impossible for the device to know the difference - even when I read the claim to them directly from their website. I pay for an alarm that's of no real value when I'm gone because it has to be in "Stay" mode. Pretty much feel ripped off every month.

    Our installer was very knowledgeable and worked with us to get full house coverage yet kept the cost to a minimum by suggesting alternative ways to save. The only problem he had was with my Xfinity phone line which caused the install to take much longer than I had anticipated. The people on the phone, however, that my husband first talked to prior to our in-house visit were not very knowledgeable and far underestimated our initial cost. They also misled us on the time for the install.

    I had worked with ADT at several Army bases in the 1970s and 80s, and was always happy with the systems' capabilities, easy of use, and rapid service support. When I decided to install a home alarm system to replace the one I designed and installed from commercial parts, ADT was the only vendor I would consider. I was happy ADT serves my area. I am very happy with all the system's functions. When I lost power, the technician on the phone talked right to the source and I haven't had any problems since. I always encourage anyone thinking of a home alarm system to contact ADT and not to compare just basic costs. Compare systems and service too.

    In the afternoon I was cooking dinner - a disaster waiting to happen - and the smoke alarm went off. I was called by the ADT and got a nice lady who I told her what had happened, she said she would cancel the alarm for a half hour. Later that night when I was getting ready for bed I noted the alarm still wasn't on - and frankly, I didn't feel like getting the manual out at that time of night. And let's face it - I tech challenged anyway - and I got a very nice lady and she gave me the simple steps to get the alarm up and running again. A big relief. I was very pleased with the service and I was very pleased earlier that the response was so fast when the fire alarm went off. Made me aware how quickly you respond to emergencies - that is also very comforting! Thanks again for the great experience.

    We were on the phone and my husband set our ADT system up. They basically asked what we wanted and he named all the stuff, but their guy came out and told us what we needed and what we don't. It was pointless for us to say what we needed when someone could've just come out and looked at it. Even so, the sales representative was good and we got a service package that includes the fire alarm.

    The first guy who came for the installation was also good but something happened and the alarm went off one time and then I was getting an error code. They had to replace the box and another guy came out but he wasn't too knowledgeable. He didn't quite know what he was doing and what he was talking about. He had to keep calling someone to figure out how to do it because he didn't know how. Then he didn't set it up right. It works but I have a lot of sensors and the way he renamed all of them sounds weird. When I open my window it says, "Mr. Window 1st" and in my living room, it's "Living Window 1st." It's a weird order instead of saying, "First living room window" like it used to say. It's annoying when a weird name announces when I open up a window. I still have to call someone to come out and see if they could rename them again. Nonetheless, my ADT system makes me feel safer.

    Overall service has been great. Whenever I have had an issue they are quick to respond and corrected the problem. However, when ADT updated my system earlier this year, the key fob that I had previously used to alarm/disalarm the system does not work properly. Whenever I use it, the alarm screeches as though it was being set off. I called to see what could be done and was informed that a technician would have to come out to see what is wrong, and I would be charged for that trip. I do not feel I should pay for a call when the technician who redid the system should have checked to see that the key fob was working properly. I now do not have the ability to utilize the key fob to alarm the system. Would like for this particular issue to be resolved. Otherwise I am completely satisfied with the service.

Checked when I got home and nothing was array. Call came today with same issue. Will check the battery within the unit and if ok, then need to call ADT for system check.

    The experience has been TERRIBLE. First off the flyer represented that this was ADT which it was not. It was an authorized installer, which IMHO was not disclosed correctly and was inherently misleading. Second it said installation was free and did not mention equipment is extra. Third the installer comes to the house and basically jams the equipment down our throats by saying, "It does not matter. I am getting paid for this visit," and as I had given my credit card, I felt pressured to continue. All told I am out $570 because installation was not free (another lie) to have a security system when I had Slomin's already.

    Now the kicker is we were charged 3 months in advance and the $100 card that was promised costs me $6 to get, and it will arrive in 6-8 weeks if ever. By far the most unprofessional experience I have ever had. How ADT allows Defenders to use their name, I do not know. But I would be embarrassed to be associated with this company whether it is as an employee, a client or as business partner. I have never felt so violated.

    When I called and set up the appointment for installation, I was told that for all we needed, there would be no charge except the installation fee. I was also quoted a monthly fee of $46.99. When the techs arrived to install the system, they immediately installed the control pad and then proceeded to make a list of all that we needed and then break down the cost. To get "all that we needed" would have cost about $3500 extra. After telling them we couldn't afford that, they "called their boss" and texted their boss and finally got it down to an additional $450 (big price drop - big surprise!).

    I told them to NOT install the equipment until we could decide if we could afford the $450. They absolutely insisted on installing it saying that they HAD to install it because they were already here. We were very upset and felt like we had been taken advantage of - the monthly fee had even been raised to $52.99 to get the cell service. It was a classic case of "bait and switch" - I was so disgusted with the entire process.

    The next day, I called to cancel our service and was sent an email with the cancellation form. I tried several times to fax it to the # on the form, with no success. I then called the toll free # on the form and was told to email the form, which I did. When I called to check up on the emailed cancellation form, I was told that I had to send it to the local dealer, NOT ADT. So I tried to fax it again (was told that when you send a fax, you'll hear music, then push "send" again - stupidest thing I ever heard of). So I tried a few times more to fax the form but it never went through. So I ended up sending the form via USPS with return receipt and signature confirmation on the 3rd business day.

    This was such a huge mess and handled very poorly. I think that the local dealer thinks that consumers will just give up and keep the service, but they have met their match. All I can say is "buyer beware"! There are several other home protection companies that won't pull this kind of nonsense on their customers. We ended up going with another company that quoted a monthly cost, included all that we wanted, no hidden fees or bait and switch. They also did not require any "installation fees" or add on fees once the tech got here. I would personally avoid "Protect Your Home" altogether!

    I had ADT Security years ago and would never go back to them again. I had the service for well over 6 years and my brother was staying with me and set off the alarm and I was out of town. Long story short he tried to disconnect the alarm and pulled the entire system out of the wall trying to disconnect the wires. I called 4 times and was sent to the attic to disconnect the system. Well, I fell through attic onto concrete floor broke my leg and then after calling them back was told by the 5th person that it was right in my hallway and all I had to do was to unplug it and the alarm would go off. I tried to make them pay for my medical expense they refused. So I had to file through my personal insurance and the cost was well over $10,000. I will never use or recommend them to anyone.

"Do you want to hear more - if not please hang up." I chose to find out the information which led to speaking with all East Indian people which I could hardly understand. The call went on and on and I could not stop them to even comment. I accepted the first offer thinking that it was just one offer but it kept coming with more offers and more gift cards. Finally I told him I would not hear any more and he finally gave me a number that I should call to get me back to ADT and the department that I asked for in the beginning. It was bogus!! I called ADT back and told customer service of my experience. Asked them to please call me back so that I would know if it was a scam. Never heard from ADT. I ended up canceling my credit card.

With the changes in companies and the upgrades to an old system we started experiencing "connectivity" issues which caused the panel to beep at all hours.

    Yesterday morning I tried to test the companion services connection. After the 6 repetitions of "Companion Services," the beeps kept beeping without anyone answering. So I cancelled and tried two more times; no one answered. I then called the number. The person who answered said I should call the number first to alert someone that I would be testing the connection. That answer does not make much sense. If I am in an emergency situation, I need to have a response to the button. I should not need to get to the phone to find the number to call. The ADT rep wondered if my unit might need replacement. He asked me to try the system again this morning. I did so, and the connection was made. However, I am dissatisfied that if I had needed assistance on Wednesday morning, ADT did not respond to my call button. That undermines my confidence in the ADT system.

We were told our little ten pound dogs wouldn't set off the motion sensor alarm, and that was a lie. They set it off multiple times. Once, the police were called, didn't show up until hours later, and then charged me for a false alarm. Which, by the way, the ADT rep said wouldn't happen. I asked specifically if we could be charged if the police show up and there's no intruder.

    When I called ADT to clear it up, I was given attitude by the woman on the phone. They sent out the install tech (The only person I liked in this entire irritating experience. His name is Jahmal ** and he's awesome.) to fix the sensor, but we haven't bothered to arm it because I don't want to waste any more money on false alarm bills. I really just hate your company.

    I've always found ADT to be responsive to any request for service. They have been good about monitoring my security system, for example, they call when the alarm has gone off, and notified me when the motion detector battery was low.

    Installers had excellent PR skills. Two things I wasn't happy about is that we got a cheap pad. The pad we had at our old place had voice talking. It was convenient because it would announce if we hit "Stay" or "Away" or whichever entry was open. The second thing is that the entire system is sometimes slow to respond. There have been times where I would open the door, and it would take about 5 seconds before any alarm would go off. There was even one time where the alarm didn't go off at all.

    Contract & Terms

    Reviewed Sept. 22, 2016

    Love the ADT product and company, that is why my wife and I went back. BUT, the service rep that we talked to apparently talked up more than he could actually do. He stated that he would be able to buy out our existing contract to set us up with ADT. This was before he even found out what we owed. Almost 3 months later, after numerous lies about check being approved, manager approving everything, checks in the mail, we find that our rep wasn't authorized to buy out our amount of contract. His manager was only a bit better on all this. After all was said and done, we got the payoff check, in 2 parts, two weeks apart. I would have been happy to stay with my existing company until I could have switched back to ADT, but they insisted and fell through until we had to push harder. Hopefully I'm not having to deal with that particular rep again with empty promises.

    We had Sentry Security and was hesitant with ADT. We are so pleased. The technicians were very well versed, answered all our questions, were very thorough and professional. They were extremely focused and worked so well together with reviewing checking testing... AND they didn't force any purchases that we were not interested in. I was so pleased I referred them to several new neighbors. GREAT job these two did.

    I have ADT Pulse. We were on vacation last summer and the fire alarm went off twice. The reps called and the fire department came but we hadn’t given our keys to anyone, so we had our neighbors look and see that there was no fire. Sometimes the fire detectors are set off if there’s dust or insects run across them. The sales representative was fine, but the installer took much longer than he needed to. We thought it would take two or three hours and it took about five. He talked too much. Other than that, the experience we had with ADT has been good so far.

    I had ADT as our security provider for years at our former address. Actually ADT came highly recommended by our bank. We called ADT requesting service at our new home, everything went fine until the day that I talked with the installer. Originally I was going to get a camera for inside. I told the installer that I need cameras outside too. He told me that will cost me over a $1000. I said "ok". Later I discovered that for over a $1000 I get 8 cameras. I called him and told him that due to the shape of the house I would need 10 cameras and this is when I noticed a not so usual practice from the installer's part. For 2 extra cameras the price went from $1000+ to $2440+. I said nothing thinking that a good camera system will be useful. He installed the camera system and then I noticed that he sold me a very substandard system, is the type of cameras that would be used for baby monitoring. Definitely not $2400+ cameras.

    He placed the alarm system on what he told me was practice mode. The siren would not go off. I called the company. They send out a technician. He told me that the screws were not tight by the previous installer. Some rooms were left out even though had monitoring before. The new technician told me if I go with him he will fix it. He wrote down the charges: Labor $123 1st 30 Minutes, $31 each additional 15 minutes. He did not completed the charge chart. I started calling ADT to cancel the service that was within the cancellation time frame. I was placed on hold for so long that I eventually had to hang up since my phone died. I called back. I was connected into a dead line. After about 26 minutes of ringing I was connected in to the initial menu. I thought to wait till Monday maybe I can talk to some more sensible people. Was I wrong. In a way a young men was trying to chew me out and then hang up on me.

    Finally I was connected to (CUSTOMER LOYALTY) what ever this means. They were just as rude as the initial ones. Long story short at one call I was given a phone number in Seattle WA. The mail box to that phone was full and I was lucky and I would like to commend that young lady who give me cell phone number to this individual, supposedly a manager. After trying to convince me to stay with ADT he told me to call customer loyalty back. After doing so I obtained a cancellation number (after several days of harassment) and was told that I need to write a letter to AURORA, CO. I sent the letter with a return signature card. They received it on 26 of August. And now the good part. According to my record the alarm system was installed on August 18, when we were charged $2477.99 for an equipment worth around $300. In September while checking my bank account I noticed that some money is missing.

    I called my bank asking about it. I was told that ADT charged me $70.81 on Sept 17. I was also told that ADT attempted to charge me $1465.23 on Sept 18, the bank did not authorized it. Further ADT charged me $51 on July 28, when the alarm was not installed till August 18. All this charges after a flimsy installation where I got wires all over the house hanging, the alarm control box has no door on it. The camera's wireless receivers are all over my garage, they used my bedroom electrical outlet to connect the power. Cameras has no night vision, the field of vision is very limited. The $2400+ cameras measures 3x3" wow what a serious camera. ADT please tell me why I should not take you to court for embezzling money from an elderly disabled veteran? Is practicing elder abuse become a norm with you? Or your installer representing you did not liked my accent? By the way the cancellation number is **.
