    I'm new to the neighborhood, and when I was taking a walk through my neighborhood, I noticed that there were several signs of ADT in the yards. I talked to a couple of the neighbors, and they said they've been very pleased with ADT. I went by that and got ADT as well. It seemed like the rep who came was a little rushed and didn't go down everything with me, but I'm pleased with what I have. The installers were friendly and respectful as well. They explained what they were doing for the most part.

    We had an outage one night that I didn't know of. The next day, the beeper kept coming on. Somehow the outage affected the charge of the battery, so it came up that it said “Low Battery.” I called customer support and they told me how to turn the beep off, which I did because it was driving me crazy. Whoever handled my support call did a good job, because they led me through what I need to do. I didn't really realize where the battery was until that day so I now know where it is and that it needs to be charged. Then I got a note the next morning, and it didn't show low battery anymore. The next day, I got up and it said, “It appears you lost service for a period of time.” I checked and they said to go back on and set it. I did, and it's worked perfectly.

    When I first talked with customer service, they sent me a new battery, which cost me $42 and something. I wrote a really quick note asking them to please cancel that order for the battery. But I still I received the battery in the mail. Other than those, I've been very pleased with ADT.

    My experience with ADT has been nothing but a headache. Every single time there’s an issue, they demand I reset my password — over and over — as if that magically fixes anything. I’ve had to create so many passwords I’ve lost count, and nothing ever actually gets resolved. Their contracts are ridiculous. You get locked into a long-term agreement with essentially no way out, even when the service clearly isn’t working. They’re more interested in trapping customers than keeping them happy. The app is unreliable, too. Tech issues, delayed notifications, features that don’t work as advertised… pretty ironic for a “security” system that can’t even reliably notify you of anything.

    Customer service was the final straw. Every call felt like talking to a brick wall. The reps were rude, constantly talking over me and repeating scripted lines that never addressed the actual problem. It was obvious they were trained to deflect, not help. Bottom line: ADT is overpriced, unhelpful, and nowhere near worth the frustration. Avoid them and find literally any other security service.

    I've had ADT in my home since October of 1987. I remember it well because 30 days later, somebody broke in my house. However, we didn't have any contacts on the outer back door. The installers only put them in the upper entry door into the house, so the intruders were able to knock my door off the hinges. We didn't think we needed it because we had two 2x4s going across the back door, but they got in there. Needless to say, we had to add on stuff. I have wireless sensors on the doors, but I still, in a couple of years, am gonna upgrade the whole house to wireless. I wanna be able to have the remote in my hand so I can just turn the system off in my hand.

    When I called ADT once, a customer support rep from the Philippines kept saying I needed to go in the basement and look for where my system is plugged in. I told her there isn't anything plugged into any sockets on my system. I kept trying to tell her it's hardwired in the attic. But she didn't understand what I was saying. She's more modernistic because she doesn't think about hard wires. Otherwise, I have had no problems with anyone at ADT. ADT works perfectly. When I call, they answer. When the alarm goes off for more than a megasecond, they call. I just wish the service was cheaper. I'm paying $31.99 a month but I know quite a bit of people that came long after me and some even more recently, and they pay $25 a month.

    I had ADT in Nevada, in Michigan, and I have them now here in Virginia. To date, I'm very satisfied. I've had lots of people come to my door, looking to give me a security service, but I turned them down. I pay ADT a service fee every year, but I don't mind. It keeps my alarm systems sharp. ADT operates through a telephone line, and once I disconnected myself from their services. I called them and they sent someone out within a couple of days. I also had another issue, and they fixed it to my satisfaction. In fact, they just came out and updated their service a couple of days ago with the phone line. One time, my motion stopped working for some odd reason. ADT sent a guy out here almost immediately after I called them. He replaced the motion detectors because there was something wrong with them.

    I'm happy with ADT. They give me one thing that I'm looking for which is peace of mind. I go to sleep at night knowing that they're there watching, monitoring me. Customers would want that same feeling, knowing full well that they could walk out their door, set the alarm, and their houses would still be there when they get back.

    I have the protection plan with ADT and I had an issue with a false alarm. It was a window sensor that was the problem. The tech came out, diagnosed the problem and found it. Took him a few minutes, and there was a wire that was loose or frayed, and he taped that back up and that solved the problem. The complaint that I have, though, is not with the tech, but prior to him coming out, I called and they assured me twice that there was gonna be a 59.99 service fee and they’d put that on my next bill.

    But when the tech came out, and I explained that to him, he said, “No. The $59.99, you have to pay now, and as well as what I'm charging you for the work I've done which is another $25.” I had to pay $84, which is completely different from what they promised me. That does not give me great confidence.

    Sometimes it's also difficult reaching someone in ADT. You get the automated service, and then it's hard to get a person on the line. The system works generally well, other than this last issue that we have with the faulty sensor. I had to get a rep out here. Ironically, at that time, when he came, he did not charge me. And that's why I was perplexed when they said I had to pay 59.99.

    Another time, a representative was here and I asked him about installing an outside camera at the back of the house. I asked him if he could give me a quote. He said, “Let me look at what you want and I'll give you a call back and give you a quote.” But he never called back and that's been a little over a year ago.

    Small business owners, please read this before signing with ADT. I paid ADT over $5,700 for a commercial security system — including $3,075 upfront and almost two years of monthly payments even after my business closed and I wasn’t using the service. When I could no longer afford it, ADT demanded 90% of the remaining contract (about $1,600) as an early-termination fee and refused to fully waive it despite my financial hardship and spotless payment history.

    I contacted ADT numerous times by phone, email, and chat, offered to return all the equipment, and even filed a complaint through the Better Business Bureau, but the company still refused to help. Their agents kept calling, offering verbal “discounts” that they wouldn’t confirm in writing — a frustrating and misleading experience.

    I’m sharing this to warn other small-business owners: read every clause carefully before signing with ADT. The contract locks you in and makes it extremely hard to cancel, even if your business closes. ADT’s policies may be legal, but they are not fair or compassionate. I hope this helps someone avoid the same trap I fell into.

    Can you call on the phone, they don’t tell you anything about how much it’s going to cost. They did tell me that I was eligible for “free installation.” Technician came to the house, quoted me a price was way too high for me so I told him, “I didn’t want to do it.” He finagled the price and got it down to $51 a month plus the cost of the equipment. The contract looks like it’s zero for installation. So I signed it. I called customer service after they charged my first bill for over $100. I called customer service, she told me that “You signed it, nothing I can do about it.” I sent them the agreement, they’re supposed to get back to me, and never did. The salesman that you deal with when you call, I’ll tell you anything to get the salesman in your house.

    I also gave the guy a $40 tip who installed my system… Thinking that I wasn’t paying for installation. He shouldn’t have taken the tip. Now I’m stuck in a two-year contract paying over $100 a month. BEWARE, once they have your credit card number, it’s all over. BY THE WAY, I paid my deposit with one card and used another card for monthly payments. Now they have two credit card accounts, and I can’t delete either one of them. They were also supposed to give my friend $200 for referring me, you guessed it… That never happened.

    While my experience with ADT's services since 1996 has been satisfactory, their business practices are questionable. Despite guaranteed contract pricing, the monthly bill was consistently increased. This required repeated calls to their customer service for correction, a process that became cyclical. By the time I terminated my service, I was paying double the rate of their competitors. The exit process also involved an unexplained $53.00 charge, which I paid just to finalize the separation.

There has been multiple occasions of cameras not working, and most recently billing problems.

    UPDATED ON 11/7/2025: There has been no communication from ADT.

    ORIGINAL REVIEW: I am extremely dissatisfied with ADT’s service. I’ve been trying for three months to cancel my account after moving to a new home, and the process has been unnecessarily complicated and frustrating. Despite paying the required cancellation and exit fees, I continue to receive letters claiming I still owe additional money. Every interaction has been a struggle, with long wait times, confusing information, and no clear resolution.

    Their mobile application and services were also low quality and difficult to use, frequently causing issues with connectivity and reliability. All I want is for my account to be closed and the billing to stop. This experience has been far more difficult than it should be. Warning to others: stay clear of ADT. Their customer service, app performance, and cancellation process have been nothing short of exhausting and disappointing.

    Original Review: Oct. 31, 2025

    I am very disappointed with my experience with ADT. My account was debited twice for the same payment, and I was told that I would receive a full refund of $154.28. Later, a representative said I would only get $119, and when I followed up with a manager, he assured me that I would receive the full amount back. However, I have not received the $119 or the full refund that was promised. The manager mentioned that the system had generated a fee, but this was before I was told that the full amount would be refunded. Since then, I’ve been given different answers each time I call, and none of them have been honest or consistent. This has been very frustrating and unprofessional. I trusted ADT to resolve this issue fairly, but the lack of accountability and transparency has been disappointing.

    I’ve had many issues with ADT. First, the installer didn’t inform me that they were not going to be doing the monitoring, so I had to monitor the cameras myself. When he put the detectors on the doors, he told me that if I get the cameras, I have to get the door monitoring by law, so I went ahead and got it. I was under the impression they were monitoring the cameras too, but the only thing they are monitoring are the doors. The cameras are only outside. They’re not inside, so I’m okay with it for now.
    The second issue is that they gave me a Google, like a little TV. Every once in a while, one of the cameras will go offline or the system will shut down altogether. What I do is unplug it for a little while and then plug it back in, but it seems like I’m having to do that more often now.
    The third issue is that I switched internet carriers, because you have to have internet to have ADT. When that happened, the monitors and the cameras went down. The guy who came to install the AT&T internet tried to program the little box to the internet, but it wouldn’t go through, and he told me that I had to call ADT.
    So I called ADT and talked to a nice representative. I told him what was going on, and he said he would send somebody out to program the box and make sure everything was running. He then told me it was going to cost money. I asked why, and he explained that the guy who sold the system to me didn’t tell me to put a warranty on it. He waived the fee, added the warranty, and put it on my payment.
    I also called technical support for the voice feature. I want to be able to say to the person outside, “Well, what do you want?” or “Who are you?” instead of going all the way to the door. Right now, I can hear them when they’re outside talking, but they can’t hear me. I tried to program the phone without touching the box so I could talk. I can hear them talking, but I can’t respond to them.

    Customer support tried to walk me through it. I was told to go on my phone and hit this, hit that. I tried it several times, even while I was talking to him and after, but I couldn’t get it to work. I really wish I had that feature where I could talk to them instead of having to go to the door, because I’m here by myself. I’m in a walker and a wheelchair, and I live on a busy street. There are times when people walk up asking if I want the yard cut or something, and we’ve already caught two or three people on camera coming into the yard. So even with the issues, it’s worth every penny.

    All of their packages do meet my expectations. When I'm at home, I'll put it on away mode. But the alarm is on. And when I put the alarm on to leave, I don't have any issues. I like all of its features.

    Well, I don't have the wireless key, the keychain remote. I still have it on my phone. That's one of the things that they offered me. But I've had so many other issues coming up, I haven't even had a chance to even do anything.

    We’ve had ADT for a long time. Our system’s been working great. So, we haven’t had to use their customer service. Everything's been working, and we haven't had any trouble with it. It's doing a good job.

    We’ve got animals in the house, and we could check on them when we’re away from home. We could also check on the driveway to make sure nobody’s coming in. We use it all the time. When we’re going, I constantly check it most of the time.

    Well, I just would say that we really feel like we're safe, with the animals and property that we have. It's a great thing to get, I think. I'd always like the payment to be less, but I'm willing to pay it for security.

    I previously had ADT. The package does meet my expectations. I have alarms on all my windows, the back door in the basement, my back door on the first floor, and my front door. I guess all of them are my favorite because I never have a problem with them.

    The only problem I've had was when I moved to my new residence in 2022. They were supposed to carry my contract over from my last place. But they started me off with a whole new contract. When I tried to get a service that would suit me a lot better, they told me I couldn’t.

    I was very upset with them. I thought it was illegal. I didn't sign anything. So, I was like, I'm just gonna cancel ADT and find another service that can give me everything I want, without having to pay extra.

    When I called them, the lady, who seemed real friendly, informed me that I have a contract until 2027. They put me in a five-year contract and told me I was stuck with it. So there's no way I can get out of it. I just go ahead and pay the bill every month. It kept moving.

    There’s been some adjustments over the years. They originally put a number of sensors in for various things, which we had to take out. One of the doors was closed and permanently blocked, so we took that sensor out.

    It’s also no good putting sensors in the hallway. We had cats running back and forth. We were setting it off all the time. We had somebody come by recently to replace a unit and that was fine.

    ADT almost lost me as a customer. The alarm was working fine, and then all of a sudden, the cloud link went out. I called up and the rep said they’ll fix that over the phone. They tried but couldn't do it. The rep then said, “I'm gonna have a higher-level call you within 48 hours.” A week later, a guy called and said, “I can't do it. I'm gonna have to give it to the supervisor.” We went four weeks horsing around with it until I finally said to them, “If it doesn't get fixed in a week, kiss me goodbye.” They said they’ll send a tech out there.

    The first tech just walked in and said, “That cloud link is bad and your system's outdated. Should we set you up for a new system? It's only $800 or $700.” I said, “No. You walk in the door and don't even try anything, and you tell me you don't have the part, you’ll order it, and you’ll be back tomorrow or the next day.” After a week, I never heard from him. That one technician just wants to sell a new system. I don't know if he gets a commission on it, but he should fix the problem. He turns around and says, “We don't really do these.” But when I call up and talk to somebody, what I hear is, “What's he talking about? Of course we service those.”

    I called and said, “We're getting close to cancel time.” I was told, “We ordered you the part and we're gonna send the tech out.” Now they sent a young girl and she was phenomenal. She got everything up and running. But two weeks later, it stopped working again. I called up and it was nightmare with the virtual assistant. I heard “Try this.” I say “I just did” and the reply was “Okay, try this.” You're talking to a recording so that does nothing. It kept going over and over.

    The young girl came back, but two weeks later, the system went on the fritz again. They said to try this and that and that didn't work, so I’m told they’re gonna send me a new cloud link. The guy on the phone got the system working except for the one light switch. He said, “What happened was that one light switch was bad, and it runs in series. If one gets sorted out, it'll kill the whole thing.”

    He sent me a new light switch and we set it up for a virtual call on a Sunday between 9:30 and 10:00. I was out on the road today, and I get a phone call saying, “I'm calling from the escalated department for our appointment.” I said, “I don't know where you got your signal from, but I have it scheduled for Sunday.” The person says, “I'll reschedule it.” It's like the left doesn't know what the right is doing. I love the system, but how many weeks do I get played around where you sit at home and wait? They gave me one month free, but it's been longer than one month. My records are there. I don't know what has happened or didn't happen.

    I called ADT to pay a compliment to the young lady who fixed everything and the answer I got was, “I'll pass it on.” I said, “Do you wanna know who I am?” I was told, “No, that's okay.” That again is poor representation. I wrote a letter to the CEO of ADT complimenting the young lady. I never heard from him or another guy. I made a copy of the letter I wrote him and had one of the reps personally give it to the young lady, so at least I know she got it. What employee doesn't like getting a compliment forwarded to the boss? But again, why doesn't the boss respond and say, “I'm so glad that after a rough run you had with it, you were so happy with her. I'll let her know.” Just give a little pat on the back and say, “That's our employee,” and let me know that it registered.

    It's a great system, excluding that 2 months of chasing my tail around. I've been happy with the alarm. I love the garage door opener because I go out of the house and I’m like “Did or didn’t I close the garage?” Even if it's open, I can close it from wherever I am. I can just pop it on the phone. With customer service, when you get somebody that's good, they're great. I understand, on the entry level, you can hear the pages turning. They're going through the routine, so it's fine. You go to the next level up, but when the next level up can't figure it out, that's concerning.

    The ADT system is reliable. It definitely gives me a greater sense of security. The only problem I’ve had in the last year since I got the system was one of my cameras went out right after a year, and they had to replace it. But they replaced it for free, so it didn’t cost me anything other than a service call to come out.

    My favorite is the cameras. Just a peace of mind that I can lock my house. And also, using the keypad on the front door. I can go out and walk the neighborhood and come back and not have to use a key to get in.

    The customer service has been great. They had the camera replaced a couple of months ago. They had to come out twice because the first time they came out, they said, “Oh, you’ve got the newest model camera and we don’t even have these in stock currently.” They had to order it for me and come back a second time. So one of my cameras was down for at least three weeks because they also had a problem with a lack of service representatives in this area to come out and fix things. They had to hire another set of people for the Northwest Arkansas region.

    The people at ADT have been good to work with, and I have no problem with them. The only issue I had was with a door contact where the battery holder snapped. I sent for a replacement kit, but they only sent the door magnet and not the full thing, which I just received recently. I thought they were going to send the whole unit, including the magnet and the 2032 battery holder, since it’s for a main door. I didn’t know exactly what they were going to send until I got it. The way they sent the literature, I thought they were going to send everything.

    I didn’t call to address it because by the time I noticed the issue, it was the weekend and I was leaving my property in Florida on Monday morning, so I never got a chance to take care of it.

    I already had my own smoke alarms in the house before I had ADT’s alarm system put in. So, I had double duty. I took all of my old ones off of the wall so that if the buzzing went off, I know it’s ADT.

    I am 83 years old and I have a problem with two of my detectors because I cannot reach them. The one in my basement is at the top of my steps, which is at a door that I can open and just reach and get it.

    I live alone now and I was concerned about the battery going dead in the middle of the night and the detectors going off. My kids don’t allow me to get on ladders because I’ve had a couple of bad falls. But if they go off in the middle of the night, I don’t know what to do, because that thing would beat so loud for a long time. It would be buzzing until I could get somebody the next day. I couldn’t stand it all night. I’d have to get a stick and knock it off the wall. That is something older people should think about when they are installing those. The last time it happened, it was during the day. One of my neighbors came over and changed the battery.

    So, I called ADT the other day to find out if it went off in the night and I call them, if they could shut the whole system down until I could get somebody the next day to come and take it off so that I can put a new battery in it. Because you don’t know how long the batteries are gonna last.

    The rep told me that I could do it myself by pushing the dots that are in the right-hand corner. So, I wrote down my notes and put it under my pad that’s on the wall.

    I’m okay with it right now and so far, I haven’t had anything that wasn’t resolved with ADT. But I do need to call and talk to them with regards to my detectors. I just don’t like the idea of them charging me for moving them because it is a safety matter and it is their product. But it’s probably something that I could have somebody move for me. If they’re just put on the wall with a couple screws in the back of them, then we can talk to other companies and change it to whatever would be better for me at my age if ADT won’t do that since I only have one more and a couple months in my contract.

    This is something ADT should look into. Maybe other people don’t want their detectors down lower but I would rather it be down where I can reach it. Don’t put them up next to the ceiling where a normal person could not reach them or can’t get on a ladder.

    Now it's past the 6 month guarantee (they said they were not going to give me anyway) and now are trying to charge me to have a technician come out to fix the equipment and services I have been paying for or charge me full price to cancel the contract.

    As a customer for nearly one year, here is my honest review of ADT. Overall, the system is not worth the cost. I constantly have to troubleshoot the cameras mainly the camera outside my garage. ADT promotes better service because their equipment is hardwired, however, this is not the case. The system still heavily relies upon WiFi. New homeowners be warned, the salesman will pop up and try to sell you this system. DO NOT FALL FOR THE TRAP. You are better to go with a more modern company that is DIY install. Also, they push a 3 year contract, and pressure sell you into signing up within 48 hours so there little to no time to cancel. I would never recommend to anyone to sign up with ADT.

If you don't fix it by then, I am canceling free of charge on my end and my lawyer will be involved." That line got them to come out to my house TOMORROW...

    ADT has been wonderful. I’ve known them about 35 years, when the company I worked for installed an ADT security system and I was in charge of it. Since then, I’ve used ADT for two of my own homes, and my parents also use their home health monitoring system. Their prices are appropriate, especially when I compared to family and friends who didn't talk to me before they got other services.

    I’ve never had a problem with any ADT equipment beyond normal things like batteries dying, and customer service has always been excellent at walking me through that. The installation teams have always been informative and kept us up to date on what was happening and their progress. We’ve talked about possibly adding a Ring camera, but I’ve noticed that many of our neighbors have more problems once they add one. But I understand we could add it if we wanted to.

    I’ve worked with different systems over the years, including programming cards for people and for their access points at the company, and ADT’s systems have always worked well. I’ve had family members use other companies that don't show up when they're supposed to, and that’s never happened to me with ADT.

So whatever they promised before I signed they didn’t honor it and basically said too bad. I tried a couple of times to cancel by phone and it would cost me $5000.

After exchange of info and set up a free installation quote, she asked me the credit card info to process the booking. Hours later, I found a charge of $210 from SafeStreets on my credit card. I googled it and called ADT right away. The customer services were extremely rude and kept saying that since you signed up with SafeStreets, you can't sign up with ADT for 90 days. Geez, I haven't even signed up anything yet. My question was why SafeStreets acquired my contact info when I submitted a free quote on ADT website. They must have security leaks and I asked them to flag the issue to their IT. He just kept saying that no one is going to solve your issue, no matter who you talk to.

    I think their customer support requires better training and also the company shall hire people with better IQ and EQ. Also, I tried to call SafeStreets to cancel the appointment and they just kept transferring me to the other department who never picked up the call. Anyway, I will stay away from these two companies at all costs. I will just dispute the charges with my bank directly. However, not everyone is so lucky to have bank support.

    My experience with ADT Security Systems has been nothing short of a nightmare, marked by malfunctioning equipment, incompetent service, and a callous disregard for customer needs—especially for my elderly mother, who was repeatedly disturbed by their faulty system. It really began several years ago when ADT acquired our original security company, “Protection One”. But the last straw—two months ago, our ADT security system began malfunctioning when the smoke detectors started chirping, indicating low batteries-a loud chirp approximately every 60 seconds. We replaced them with known, good batteries, but the incessant chirping persisted. Worse, the system began triggering false fire alarms at 2:30 AM, randomly, jolting my elderly mother awake in a state of panic.

    Our attempts to resolve the issue through ADT’s customer service were exasperating. We endured multiple phone and video troubleshooting sessions, which were frustratingly ineffective. ADT eventually sent a technician, but this visit was a waste of time—the technician couldn’t fix the problem and even provided an incorrect diagnosis, leaving us no closer to a solution.

    When it became clear the system was unfixable, we tried to cancel our monitoring subscription and have ADT remove or disable the system to stop the disruptive false alarms. They refused to cancel the subscription or shut down the system, instead shuffling us between call center agents and so-called “account management” personnel.

    Fed up with ADT’s evasiveness and utter failure to deliver a functional service, I took matters into my own hands and ripped the system out of the wall, disconnecting all power to stop the madness. I informed ADT we would not be paying the upcoming subscription bill, as their service was not only useless but actively harmful. I strongly advise anyone considering home security to steer clear of ADT—they’ve proven they care more about locking customers into contracts than providing a reliable, respectful service.

    I was a customer of theirs for 27 years. I upgraded my system from wired to wireless because I got rid of my home phone and I tried to cancel but the high-pressure and they said they put a new system in for free. They did that and they also I was questioning. Do you service your batteries? They said yes for free. I called to get them replaced and they said it would be $160 so I don’t need them anymore. I have a new security system with cameras, but they charged me more months that I haven’t even come up yet so they are super hard to get rid of these bums. I am retired and I don’t need their headache.. My recommendation is do not use them. I’ve never had any success with their monitoring.

    If I could give this company 0 star, I would. Expensive, unreliable, they don't send technicians after 3pm (so you have to have a job that allows you to work from home or you're screwed). Every single time I've had to lose a workday for a technician to resolve an issue, they either cannot fix the problem or arrive after the (4)-hour window work they make you wait. The services and equipment that you pay monthly are leased, which means that they will take it back once your contract expires. You will rarely resolve a problem over the phone (minimum time on the phone is 1hr), so they will make you pay for a site visit. If your contract is with a 3rd party camera installation, they blame technicians for their lack of ability to fix anything. The worst experience of my life.

    I used to have ADT years ago in my apartment, and I moved into my home and wanted ADT because they were really good to me. If there was any issue, I remember a water sensor went off, and they were on the spot. I’m always so surprised that any time somebody calls me, their customer service is superb. I would recommend ADT to anyone.

    I've had ADT for almost two years now. I remember more so with this system, it was early 2024 when I got the ADT system for my apartment. I don’t remember so much detail about the fire alarms. This time, when they put them in, there were more details for the fire alarms and then the water sensors. They didn’t have them last time. For 19.99, I get a lot. You get reliability for a great price.

    What needs work is the system. I was trying to go in to set it up automatically because my information was compromised, but it wasn’t as easy or friendly. It was too vague when I was trying to get in there, so I had to actually get a customer service rep to help me.

The last time they had to update the panel, the guy showed up on time and it was good. It was something to do with the cell. They had to do something because it was a new cellphone.

    I’m happy with my equipment. They are quick to respond to emergencies. The only false alarms we’ve had are because of my kids. They forget the panel.

I like being able to arm and disarm it with my phone.

    I had ADT before, but it lapsed. Plus, I got it shortly after I lost my Rottweiler. I had a 200-pound Rottweiler, but my ex-wife did something to him. I never found him. So, I thought I needed some kind of security for that. So, I went with ADT. But I didn’t want to get an ADT system with him roaming around and setting it off.

    Their technicians were also good. At first, I asked them for a keychain remote, but the tech didn’t bring it. And so, another tech came out, and then I couldn’t program the thing after he dropped it off. So, I had to call them a third time, and another guy came out, and he was able to program the key fob for me. So, they were responsible in regards to that, but they made me wait a little bit.

And I have no complaint with the way the system works. It’s just that I know my system has gotten old, and it’s basic. So, I would appreciate it if a technician would come by from time to time just to look at the entire system. Because I know that periodically, there are upgrades, and I’m not aware of what they are.

    I’ve been a customer of ADT since 1988, and my experiences have been very positive. For the first 27 years, I’ve had excellent service, so the price I paid for it, I found acceptable. Until about a month ago, the system I had in place apparently failed and needed to be replaced by an updated system. A new system was installed in early October, and I was very displeased with the installation process, and the cost was outrageous.

    The installer who came out was relatively new to ADT, although he said he had 17 years of experience in the industry. But based on what I’d seen, he was not very adept in dealing with customers and the value of the service he provided was next to zilch. I’m very disappointed that wires are dangling in our kitchen, and I’m still waiting for the area manager to come out and talk to me.

    I’m 90 years old, and I started my career 65+ years ago as a telephone installer, so I know a few things about installation. So, I could have given him pointers, but I don’t hover around professionals who are doing their work. When he finished, I came out and saw the wires dangling. He said he had to put an antenna to gain full signal strength, and the wire was that long. I could hardly believe what he said, but I just tied the wires up in a little bundle and let it hang from the ceiling. I hope ADT can get that corrected.

You get the great checkout person when you have them and then when you go the next time, they’re bad. It’s the same thing with ADT. You get good technicians sometimes who understand what’s going on and then you get poor ones who don’t. It’s a typical deal but it’s nothing deal breaking.

    Equipment comes and goes. 50 years ago, you had wires to every individual window. Now, you have no wires to any window. They have a model that says the break-ins don’t increase by not having a wire to every window. Technology changes and they make it more efficient. But they seem to stay up with what everybody else does. They’re expensive but I’d still recommend them.

    I’ve been very happy with ADT. I’ve had them for 33 or 34 years, since I bought the house. I live alone, so the alarm will call my neighbors if it goes off. Over the years, that’s made me feel protected. I first got the panic button because my son had violent outbursts when he was a teenager. One time, he pushed me into my room, took away my phone, and threatened me. I made it through the situation, but I had a lot of PTSD and anxiety just being in my own home at times.

    Afterwards, I sought professional counseling and my son was treated for his mental health. The professional suggested that I get two panic buttons that I could wear in my clothing. That way, if something happened again, I would have a button I could press and call for help. I still have the buttons now. I need to update a battery in one of them. I could even wear them now as a medical alert. I set my alarm when I go to sleep at night and don't worry because I know that my alarm will go off when there’s a problem and I’m protected.

    A young man came out to install our ADT system. He was very knowledgeable about everything that was going on. He told us exactly how to work the system, how to calibrate it, and who to call if anything goes wrong. He knew exactly how to do his job. The system functions pretty well. I like it. It lets you know every window that is protected, if something is broken, if somebody comes in, and if you left something unusual like if you left the window open longer than you normally would.

    I like the three emergency calls that I get every month. Through the ADT system, they can call the fire department or the police. It makes it a priority and makes them come quicker. I can sit there and know that it works. When my alarm system went off one time with the smoke detector, ADT called me immediately. They dispatched the fire department out here without even finding out if there was an actual fire.

    Camera-wise, it’s good and I like the quality of it. The only thing is if you have issues with your Wi-Fi, it might mess with the streaming of the thing and cut off. You have to log back in. But it’s not like where it’s consistent. It’s only when either the weather is really bad or if your Wi-Fi is really crappy.

    Everybody in the house works. My husband works either during the day or at night. My son works overnight. It’s just me and my infant son. With ADT, my sense of security is really good. I can leave a window open and know through the system about that and if someone tries to come in through any other thing. I know if somebody is in the backyard, driveway, or front yard. I can also look at the camera and I can tell right away where anybody is.

    We got ADT Home Security because I decided that we did not want a firearm in the house. It was recommended by my brother, who knows things like that. The performance of the system seems to be just fine. I've had a couple of other issues, but not with the performance.

    I called for it and two young men came to install it. They were very nice, and they did what I asked. I wasn't educated enough to know that I didn't need all of those little white circular things–like glass breakers–that go in each room, I'm paying for those, plus I'm paying for my ADT system. I was not educated by the rep if I needed them or not. I like the ability to lock the house up when we're away. If, for some reason, we're out, I can lock it from my phone. And the other thing is being assured that at night, it's on. If something happens, the system will show me on the box that something isn't happening. Just the other day, our internet went down. And we got up, and the box was flashing, and we had to reset it, and we found out that that was the reason why. It's a bit costly and an excellent choice, especially if you had children. if you have a dog, you may not need it.

    My wife and I are considering stopping our subscription once it's done because we have a dog and in the years now that we've had ADT, we've had absolutely zero problems. We’re not in a fancy neighborhood but we feel secure. And since we’re on fixed incomes, we're talking about whether we can afford it. But overall, we are satisfied.

    I applied for the ADT service 39 years ago, eversince I've lived in Fredericksburg. Prior to moving to Fredericksburg, we had someone break into our home down in Caroline County and we just struggled after that. We were not feeling secured that's why we got ADT

    I'm very thankful that the interactions I've had with ADT were not emergency situations. ADT has always been right there whenever I would get up and go downstairs and forget to turn the alarm off and walk in front of the motion sensor. They were always faithful to call me to check on us to make sure we were okay.

    My favorite feature is turning it on and going on vacation with peace of mind knowing that if something happened, I'll be getting a call or the police department will be going to my house.

    I'm very satisfied with it. All of my experiences with ADT has been fantastic. I feel secure with it and they've always done exactly what they said they would do.

    DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT USE ADT!!! They have employees that will lie their butts off to make a sale and then those employees will get fired and then you’re stuck with the bill they promised you would no longer have!!! This company back in December 2024 told me when I was selling my house that if I relocated the equipment or found somebody else to take the equipment then they would wipe away the equipment charges, so that sounded great and I found somewhere to take the equipment but when I took the equipment there and the technician showed up, he said you don’t need that equipment. I’ll give you new equipment.

    I explained to him that we were told that by bringing the old equipment, it would wipe away my equipment charges, and he said it would still wipe away charges and to just take my equipment back to the house that I was selling which I did. Now that employee is no longer with the company and I’m left with a $500 equipment charge bill 10 months later because he apparently didn’t tell me the truth and I have to pretty much deal with it or it affects my credit report!

    I lying salesman talked me into their service, and that by far the beginning of the ridiculousness for as big as this company is, you would expect superior service. Nothing is further from the the truth. I have been using this company for over 3 years and I sadly renewed the contract, really wishing I had switched to Simplisafe.

    After being overcharged for flimsy service for 3 years, I had to threaten to cancel my service before they offered to fix the system in my house that does not work as well they say it does. It gets fixed, kind of! And then I purchase 6 new window sensors, that sends me through a 3 month ordeal of multiple 3-5 hour phone call their very bad customer service. I was frequently passed around because no one could help wanted to bother to fix my issues.

    And the fun didn't end there, I had 5 different "so called" technician come to my house to install and fix window sensors after they sent the wrong ones to my house "twice"! And the so called experts barely knew what they were doing, were never prepared or never seem to have the right equipment on their truck to fix the problem. So then I have take off more time from work for them to come to my house again.

    "At some point the idea crossed my mind to just stay at home with a shotgun, my house would have been safer rather than waiting on them to fix the issues of window sensors and smoke detectors that go off for NO reason." But on good note, the local fire department knows where my house is perfectly because they have arrived so many times! And if you want to cancel the contract, you have to do it within the 1st 3 days, or you have to pay an EARLY TERMINATION FEE! Even with all the issues I have had with their service, that doesn't matter they just want their money and nothing more. This company doesn't care about protecting you!

I could have gone to a big box store and bought the equipment outright and had it forever. Even though I own it outright, and paid full price for it, it will no longer work once my service has ended. That’s CRAZY, and UNFAIR, and TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!! Furthermore, when the service and equipment was installed, I paid my first month upfront. When I cancelled, they charged me an additional month, when my month was paid at the beginning of the month. So, I paid at the beginning of the month when it was installed, and now, I’m being charged at the end of the month. This company is so SHADY. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID!!

    I am taking the time finally - that I do not have but after MONTHS (and really in total 2 years) of the most horrific service that one would not even attribute ADT to being a company. A 5 year child could run a company offering HOME SECURITY no less with more customer attention than that I have been consistently met with by corporate ADT. This is across the board and the only consistent aspect of ADT service is the lack thereof, from Sales, "Client Care or Customer Care" to "Escalation" to "Install"- I am so surprised they are still in business and due to the fact that I have maintained my security systems for my law firm business AND home for 10 plus years with ADT it is more challenging to find and connect with a new company than to deal with these incompetent, rude, unprofessional and completely apathetic employees of ADT but Now I am at my wit's end.

    I rarely if ever write reviews (have written 1 in my 51 years of life) as I rarely have time, but I am a business owner myself. The egregious lack of care given to my account needs public attention. I have been left with broken sensors, install dates come and go, a panel that has not worked for 2 years and over 15 service calls with the last installer disappearing in the middle of the job- secretly leaving and not returning without bothering to tell us. No one has called us back, No notes in system. Each time we have called they have NO idea what we are talking about. I will give ADT 24 hours from today 10/13/2025 to see what they do to fix It before this customer (ME) is walking away and starting with a new company both for my law firm business office and my home.

    In one word, my experience with ADT has been horrible. Things have gone wrong. Each time something goes wrong, they are pleased to fix it as long as they get $168. That includes incorrect installation of items that they were responsible for in the first place as well as replacing a defective battery after three weeks after installation. I will soon be canceling the arrangement with this company. The experience has been nothing short of horrific. Further, as things go wrong, as they have, customer service people act as though they are doing a great favor to come out and charge their $168 for fixing the item.

    In one case, they came out, charged the $168. Improperly fix the item. And then, when we brought that to their attention later on, they expressed the willingness to come out again to correct their mistake for another $168. I would have that the service people are extremely rude. In the last instance, when we questioned whether we should have to pay $168 again, during mid conversation, the service person simply turned and left without a word. Recommendation. Go to another company.

    The equipment and monitoring service function effectively. However, the process of contacting the company and resolving issues related to billing and contracts is notably inadequate. Attempting to communicate via telephone with a representative often results in being redirected across multiple departments. Each representative appears intent on:

    1. Increasing the monthly cost of the service.

    2. Enforcing a three-year contractual lock-in.
