    I've been with ADT for over 15 years. Anytime we have a problem, they send somebody over or they talk to us through the phone and help us on the keypad. They've been good. The only major instance we had was one of the smoke detectors wasn't working. Somebody came out because they said they had to have somebody certified to come out and change it.

    We've had ADT here for one year. They're good. We get an insurance discount from them, and they're very responsive. The last time we had them, we used them for 20 years at the same location, and it was older technology. Everything here is wireless. Now you can do things through your phone, wireless, which the old system was so old, it was predated all of that technology. It's pretty much the same thing. All the doors and windows are done. I like the old keypad that they had on the wall. I knew exactly what was going on. But now that I'm used to this one, it's fine.

    We’ve been with ADT for 30 years now. We went with them because it was the most recognized brand that we knew. The staff is pleasant when I have to call, and we've just not had any issues whatsoever in all the years we've had it. About a year ago, we had an issue with our camera doorbell. And when the service technician came out, he realized that there had not been a software upgrade, and the panel was too old to update, and so they replaced everything for free. And we had some protection plan that I didn't know we had, but everything was replaced for free, and it was quick, easy, and painless.

    We contacted ADT after our house got broken into. We did some research and decided to go with them. We also wound up hooking up my mother-in-law because she was 99 and living by herself. Every once in a while, we might have a false alarm, and if I open the door while my wife is home, the alarm may go off. When that happens, ADT contacts us within minutes, if even that. The package is more than adequate for what we need. I've installed Eufy cameras as well, so that has given us a little bit more peace of mind, but we've had incidents. So, between the two, it seems to be doing well.

    I've recommended ADT to numerous people. The equipment seems to be working very well. I just keep the batteries clean and the system lets me know if the batteries are going down. The price is reasonable, which is why we’ve stayed with ADT for so long. Some things could be cheaper, but I understand.

Besides the regular alarms, it also has a hostage taker alarm, which is a very good item in the menu. I am very grateful that such a good company exists.

    I've been with companies that were absorbed by ADT. I was with Protection 1, which became ADT Protection 1. Before that, I was with a smaller company that was bought up by Protection 1. I've been with them 35 years total with all the different companies, and their customer service has been fine. If I ever had a question, they resolved it. I have two different systems with them - one that's for the house and another that's cameras around the house. They're an older system which is hard wired, and both work fine. But I don't like that when you call into ADT, you have to answer questions before you get to the right thing. They should have a separate line for emergency calls. If my alarm's going off, I don't want to go through the whole rigmarole.

    ADT relocates you, and they give you this great price. But when you get to the new place, they don't give you all that you had at first, and you had to pay extra. I started out paying $60. With all this relocation thing, “We can break your bill down to 47 something.” They did. But with that $47, it's not everything that I had at the other place. That's not a relocation. If you get a relocation, I figure you should have the same thing that you had at the other place, but it's not like that. That's the deal of relocation, just move your stuff over. They don't do that. So, I pay more than I was paying before, and I'm thinking about going to Brinks because that upset me.

    The system is up and running. However, I had a problem with it because I couldn't get two of the TVs to connect. They sent a guy out, and he knew what he was doing. I ended up getting everything connected. But I'm paying more for ADT than I had before. And they told me the equipment went up. That's a lot of crap. If you tell me you're gonna relocate me, you should relocate me. Don't tell me to pull all the equipment. The salesperson told me at first, “Just leave everything there, and we give you all new stuff.” But it's not like that. So, I had to pay for some of the sensors, the carbon monoxide, a little monitor that I had on a wall at the old place. Now, it's on the counter. I have to pay extra for that. In other words, I pay $20 more a month than what I was paying before, and I got the same thing I have the other place. That’s not right. All that stuff was paid for. I’m paying for the equipment all over again. I didn't realize that.

    I did not want to go with a provider where I had to hook up my own equipment and I decided to go with ADT. I've been a customer for six years and the features of my service package are okay. There was one negative experience last year, but it hasn’t happened since. The system went off on its own and the police were called, and my husband was harassed. ADT kept saying that my husband pressed the panic button, but my husband was asleep. I didn't really like that ADT kept saying the only way for that to go off is for someone to press it because that was not the case. Another time, when we had just gotten my dog, the alarm was going off inside the house. It ended up being a false alarm, but we didn't know if it was a burglar alarm or not.

    I was with Ackerman Security before, and Ackerman Security sold a bunch of their accounts to ADT. So, I really had any choice in the matter, but I haven't had any problems with them. I got a little frustrated with Ackerman's service just when I would call them on the phone. I haven't had any problems so far with that with ADT. It's a little bit frustrating when I call to talk to a real person. They want you to talk to the AI. You really have to fight to talk to a real person, but I eventually got what I needed when I called.

    Customer service-wise, they're always adequate. There's always a little bit of a language barrier because I can tell that most of them do not have English as their primary language. So, that's a little frustrating, but the times that I've had to call, we've gotten the job done. As far as the price, they haven't gone up since my account was transferred.

    ADT was part of the package being offered with the new home. We trusted the builder, and we went with what they recommended. So far, it's been great with ADT. We had an issue a while back where the front deadbolt was not locking and it kept triggering false alarms. We called them up and they were very patient. My calendar and my wife's calendar don't sync, and that made it very hard on them because they would call me but I was out of the area. They would call my wife but she was out of the area as well. But they followed up and we were able to get together eventually after five days of back and forth. I'm glad that they followed up and we got it resolved.

    Do not do business with ADT. Their customer service and cancellation process are completely predatory. I signed a 3-year contract starting April 3, 2023, and explicitly instructed them from the very beginning (just three days after installation) that the account was NOT to auto-renew. Fast forward to April 2026 when my contract legally ended—due to a bank card replacement earlier in the year, I was finally notified of a billing disruption, immediately contacted them to confirm my cancellation, and paid the final balance of $275.04 to clear the account.

    Despite fulfilling every single financial obligation through the end of my term and confirming my cancellation multiple times, ADT ignored my request, kept the account open, and slapped me with an unauthorized $68.50 charge. Now, they are holding my account hostage, refusing to close it unless I pay an additional bogus $206.53 balance that only exists because they failed to process my cancellation in the first place. They trap you in contracts, ignore your explicit cancellation instructions, and manufacture fake balances to keep billing you after your term is up. I have had to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau over this unacceptable behavior. Stay far away.

    We've had ADT since we've been down here in 2017. I had ADT in my home before we moved down to North Carolina. I've had ADT for at least 10 years. My experience has been good. If there have been problems, we've called ADT and they have addressed it or told us what we needed to do on our end. I've had no problems with them.

    The system is good. It lets us know if the batteries and certain things need changing. It lets us know if, for whatever reason, we got disconnected from the system, and then we call in and they do whatever magic they do on their end and it's back up again. It's easy to set and disarm. We feel very comfortable with ADT because it lets us know if something is amiss. So, if we go to visit friends or family or whatever, we know that the house is secure.

    DO NOT USE ADT. Long story short. I am a renter. The house I just moved into already has ADT cameras and alarm panel. We were provided with an alarm code from our landlord but the panel wasn’t seeming to be working so we called adt to ask if they could assist. They said they would have to come out and verify all the equipment was functioning properly and we would have to sign a contract for them to even come out but that we would have 30 days to cancel the contract with no fees or repercussions. Fast forward. ADT came out. Verified everything worked correctly. Said we had to sign a contract utilizing the cameras and everything and we couldn’t just activate the alarm even though that’s all me and my husband wanted access to. Oh and they charge you a fee for them to even come out.

    So in case I’m not explaining well thus far. All I wanted was the alarm but they said we had to sign up for a year even though we had a code from the landlord which actually turns out it DID work. The guy who came out for ADT showed how ADT tries to trick you after you cancel your plan and you can still utilize your alarm it’s just hidden. Anyways, when they were here verifying the cameras worked and everything and as my husband signed they verified that we had THIRTY DAYS TO CANCEL WITH NO FEES. After about a week we realized we weren’t using the cameras at all and the app sucks and doesn’t really notify you of anything. We chose to cancel because we didn’t wanna be charged $60+ a month for a service we weren’t using. My husband called and after talking to several employees they told him to cancel we had to pay a 75% of what we owe for the year cancellation fee. THEY LIED.

    So obviously we were pissed. Because they are scummy slimy liars. After going back and forth with adt with different people, finally they said they couldn’t cancel without the fee still but they would lower our monthly bill for 3 months to $30 and they would give us 2 free cameras. Cool. My husband called a couple days later to ask when they were going to put up the new cameras and then was told they actually aren’t going to hold what they said. They lied again. Even though we had an emailed receipt for the 2 cameras. They said they couldn’t give us the two cameras and still couldn’t cancel.

    Just overall horrible experience and I will never use ADT again. I have it marked on my calendar to cancel before they try to lock me into another year when my service runs out. They prey on people and are just overall the WORST when it comes to morale. I don’t recommend to anyone. Horrible business practice. My brother uses Vivint and I’ve seen his app and the service they provide. I recommend going with vivint over ADT. Plus vivint's app is more customizable and user friendly AND actually notifies you when people are in your driveway and you can do so much more and the business itself isn’t scummy.

    ADT’s alarm was the best ones for what we were looking for in alarm coverage at the time we got them and we’ve had it for at least five years now. We were looking for a low monitoring fee and we also wanted to have indoor monitoring. My experience has been fairly good. We've had some difficulties that resulted from how the alarm was mounted, but we were able to resolve those. ADT provides technical support when you call and they walk you through any difficulties that you might be having. After that, if it can't be resolved, then they send someone out, which we care for because you always pay more having someone come out. Having three doors and two windows monitored is our favorite feature, because we have a door in the back and we have two windows that are not in plain view when we're in the living room.

    We're on auto pay, and apparently, it was not working properly. I had to call ADT a couple of times because our account was showing a past due balance. They said it had to do with the day or the month that our payment was being processed. It was moderately difficult to get that fixed because I had to call them two or three times about it.

    ADT does not stand behind their equipment. Think about it, you have a fire in your house and the fire alarm provided by ADT does not work until after five minutes of the fire starting. In fact they are the last phone call notifying 911 of the fire. Then they continue to charge you for monitoring the equipment and billing you for the equipment. If you are lucky someone notices the fire to get you out of your house. This actually happened to a family member, they purchased ADT system for security and then ADT wants to continue charging for equipment that did not warn about the fire.

    I've had ADT for over 20-something years. I stopped and started the service. I had a couple of break-ins. The peace of mind of knowing that my home is protected, which the area that I live in, we have to have some type of alarm system. So, the convenience and knowing that I'm protected. The experience is great. ADT has been around for a very long time and they do what they say they're going to do as far as protecting you and protecting your home. I agree with that 100%. The only issue I have about it was the old camera system. Because during the time that all this happened, my car was stolen from outside of my house. But I didn't have any cameras on my house because the old cameras didn't work with the new system. So, they never found my car. But I still would recommend them to somebody. Just make sure you ask questions and you get everything. They tell you everything upfront.

    I had paid all this money for outdoor cameras, and I had a break-in. They pulled my alarm system off the wall. So when they came in to replace the alarm system, they didn't tell me that the cameras I had went toward the old system and they would not be compatible with the new system. They didn't give me an option, and I would have wanted them to. I could have kept my old system, and my camera still worked, but they put a new system in, and I had just paid almost $1,000 for those cameras on my home for outside. When we had this incident happened, they didn't give me the option. So, they came out and hooked up the new system. Everything was good until I noticed, “My cameras aren't responding to this new system. They don't work.” I was told, "Those old cameras are not compatible with the new system.”

    I still don't have cameras on the outside, which I had to pay extra money to get the Ring cameras, and they don't always work all the time. The Ring camera doesn't sometimes. The service is not working. I would have liked the option or tell me, “Your cameras is not going to work on this new system. This is what we can do.” When I called back to inquire about getting the new cameras to go on the system, it was over 1,000 some dollars. I had just paid 1,000 some dollars. I thought about switching to SimpliSafe because of that issue, but I'm okay now. The functionality is okay. That's why I would have liked to have my cameras because the Ring cameras work, but at the same time, sometimes if the service is a little spotty, you don't get the full effect, which with my ADT system, I didn't have that issue with the cameras on the outside because the cameras always work.

    I moved into a new neighborhood and I decided to get a new security system. I already knew about ADT, which was why I got them and it’s been five years. About a year ago, my motion detector inside wasn't working properly. When I would set it for Alarm Stay, it would still signal the motion detectors. And the alarms would go off as if it were set for Alarm Away. I called ADT and somebody came right out and reset it. It was an easy-peasy job. ADT is a little pricey, but overall, my experience has been good and it makes me feel secure at home. People should get it.

    ADT was the only security system available at the time that we picked them and we've been with them at least 18 years. The experience has been exceptional. Anytime we have an alert and something going on, they contact us whether it's our area or whomever. So, they've always responded. They call right on time and communicating with them is very easy. The system is very good and when they have updates, they usually notify us and update. Whenever a door is open, it notifies you. Usually, when the power goes off, it's still okay. ADT is very reliable, easy to contact, and they attend to whatever you need. They are there to service you.

As far as their representatives, some people have such a heavy accent that I have difficulty understanding them. Other than that, we seem to be happy with ADT. We have an occasional bump, but they always work with us to get it straightened out. Sometimes, that bump is us. We have a smart camera on the front, and it went dead. We couldn't figure out how to get it off or charge it. The only thing is few weeks ago, I started receiving an email that said I had been hacked, and they got my email from ADT.

    ADT is an investment in disappointment. The first year is fine, but after it's a nightmare. Once you pay off your alarm, even when you pay the monthly subscription fees they don't do their job. Want to replace a battery? Good luck. The fire department and police are on their way. Want to cancel the alert? They will not notify you or ignore your request to cancel it for false alarm. Then you get billed for their shit service and products misfiring. If there is a class action, count me in.

    I foolishly signed a 5 year contract. I wanted to get out of it after a year and was given a payoff amount that I couldn't afford. I saved up and a year later decided to try and cancel again. The payoff amount is now $500 higher, even though I paid for another year. Also, there's no actual local office where you can go in and talk to someone. I would talk to someone on the phone and be told one thing, only to be told something completely different when I called a day later. This happened multiple times. Horrible customer service. So glad to be done and never have to talk to them again.

    Updated on 09/01/2026: I believe I was misled by ADT during both the sales and cancellation process. The pricing presented did not match the actual cost, and I was rushed into signing without enough time to review the contract. After a life-changing event, I contacted ADT before canceling and explained my situation. The representative consulted someone else and told me my contract could be voided if I submitted documentation supporting my circumstances. ADT then sent me a link specifically to upload that documentation. I followed those instructions in good faith. If ADT had not indicated that my situation could qualify, there would have been no reason for me to expect a link to submit the required documentation.

    Despite providing the requested documents, my request was denied without a clear explanation. I canceled the service, but I continued making payments toward the balance because I was trying to resolve the matter in good faith. ADT then demanded payment of the entire remaining balance instead of allowing me to continue making payments. When I could not pay the full amount at once, my account was sent to a third-party collection agency. The collection agency also refused to accept payments and demanded the full balance.

    After I posted my review, ADT reached out again, but I still have not been told what they can actually do now that the account is already in collections. I made reasonable efforts to resolve this directly with ADT and continued making payments, but those efforts were disregarded. This has caused unnecessary financial hardship, and I do not believe I was treated fairly.

    Updated on 08/07/2026: I originally left ADT a one-star review because of my experience with their sales and cancellation process. After posting my review, ADT reached out to me and sent me another link asking me to provide my information. Unfortunately, this does not address the actual issue. Before I canceled my service, I experienced a life-changing event that required me to cancel. I called ADT, explained my situation, and spoke with a representative about what had happened. The representative discussed my situation with another person and then came back on the phone and told me that ADT would accept my circumstances and could void my contract if I provided documentation proving what I had explained.

    After that conversation, ADT sent me a specific link so I could submit the requested documentation. This is an important part of what happened. I did not simply decide on my own that ADT was going to waive my contract. I called ADT first, explained my circumstances, and was specifically told that my situation could be accepted if I provided the necessary documentation. ADT then provided me with the link to submit that documentation. Had I been told that my circumstances did not qualify, there would have been no reason for ADT to send me a link to submit documentation for an exception they had already discussed with me.

    I followed their instructions in good faith and submitted the requested documentation. Despite that, ADT later denied my request without giving me a clear explanation as to why the decision changed. I continued trying to resolve the matter and made the payments I could afford. Despite my efforts, ADT ultimately sent my account to a third-party collection agency. Now, after I posted my negative review, ADT has contacted me again and sent me another link requesting my information. My concern is that this does not explain what ADT is actually willing to do about the account that has already been sent to collections.

    Original Review: I believe I was misled by ADT during the sales and cancellation process. The initial pricing presented did not match the actual cost. When the technician arrived, I was rushed into signing the contract without sufficient time to review the terms. After a significant life change, I contacted ADT to cancel the service. I explained my situation and was told the contract could be voided if I provided documentation. I submitted the requested documents through the link they provided, in good faith. However, my request was denied without a clear explanation. Despite continuing with cancellation and making the monthly payments I could afford, my account was sent to a third-party collection agency. I made reasonable efforts to resolve the matter in good faith, but those efforts were disregarded, resulting in unnecessary financial hardship and damage to my account.

    I am absolutely disgusted with ADT. The customer service is deplorable. Actually, they don’t have any customer service, I’m just another idiot paying for an overcharged service. According to an ADT representative, you have to give them 30 days notice to cancel a service. I did not have a contract with them. I had a one year reduced rate from their loyalty office which expires 8/13/26. Today 8/6/26, seven days prior to the actual expiry date. ADT charge me 300% more on my billing cycle on 8/5/26. I did not receive any information from them regarding my end of agreement or the new costs. I was advised this was not a contract that I had but an agreement for the reduced rate.

    I spoke to four different customer service representatives. Unfortunately, two of them spoke very broken English and I could not understand anything they said the last representative I spoke to yelled at me on the phone telling me that all companies operate like this and all companies require a 30 day advance notice to cancel services. He was extremely rude and not helpful at all. I’ve never actually been yelled at by a customer service representative, it must be an ADT policy to yell at their customers. I have used abroad to protect our home. I have honestly never been spoken to like that in the 50+ years I have been alive from a large international company. I would never recommend this company or continue with ADT for the remainder of my life.

    When I moved here 23 years ago, the system was already in, so I just connected to the police department. My favorite feature is the promptness that I receive and get when something goes wrong. I receive notices when I leave the house, and for some reason, my alarm is triggered by something. Maybe a bird hitting up against the window, and I'm alerted to that. ADT calls and texts me, they send me a email, and I respond, and the issue is resolved. It has been excellent. I usually email if I have questions. But if I need to call, it takes a few minutes, but no longer than other businesses.

    I would consider their services and how quick they respond to issues, alarm issues, and how they resolve them and how quickly they are resolved. It's the back and forth communication about what needs to happen after this happened, like if your alarm sounds, or if once my dryer made a lot of noise, and I have a sensor in my laundry room, and I was in the garage, and it activated it, I immediately received a call, but it's the communication that they are aware and on top of monitoring my connection with them and the police department. Plus, I receive monthly reports. I would recommend the plan.

I told them my alarm had gone off, and they didn't know what to do about it. Then they called the police and the police didn't come. It's the same with any alarm company and you expect this kind of stuff. But I don't have that many issues because nothing happens most of the time.

    I'm very happy with ADT. They have been very good. The initial guy that I talked to said he thought he would be able to use most of the stuff that Optimum had in my house. The guys who came out said it was all obsolete and couldn't use any of it. That was thousands of dollars more than I expected. It was an upsell. At the end of the day, I agreed to it. We bought it. Also, ADT assumed that I would do monthly payments but I never said that. We had a lot of trouble getting them to stop trying to get me to sign a contract that was incorrect. Finally, I got some senior people involved and they got it fixed. We now just pay ADT for monitoring because we paid cash for all the installation and equipment. But I like the products they have and the monitoring.

    We had some installation issues fixed. The original installation put some of the window shock units under where the plastic things were that you open the blinds with. So, if you accidentally opened the blinds or closed the blinds and dropped the plastic rod and it hit the blinds, it would set off the alarm. We paid ADT extra 200-something dollars to come out and move a good number of the shock to the other side of the window so that wouldn't happen.

    Initially, there were some coding issues about what shock units went with what rooms and we couldn't figure it out. So we got somebody to come out and they relabeled everything so it made sense to me. But aside from the initial changes that we had made, we also had some smoke detectors put in in the kitchen. We had some put in initially, but they didn't want to put them in in the kitchen. We had either heat or smoke. We paid extra for that too. But since then, we haven't made any changes to it. Since we got all those issues fixed, I like the response when I call.

    Over the past two months, I have not been having a good experience with ADT. I have been on the ADT system since 2011. I had a home in Mississippi and I kept that ADT service going because I was back and forth between Mississippi and Alabama. I sold that one and I got this home. It's my primary residence in Alabama. I have also purchased a rental property recently and I got ADT for the cameras. But I'm having issues with that account versus my home. The rental property is my business place for ADT but they had combined the two accounts as one under residential. When I was getting that account, I was under the impression that everything was going to be separate, but it wasn't. I've been dealing with them back and forth, trying to get the accounts together. My last call was last week and I'm assuming everything is separated now, but it took me two months and I don't like calling. I feel I'm doing their job to make certain everything is sorted.

    I got the initial rental property service set up in June the 12th and from there, it's been a disaster. You get different reps but that's fine as they make notes on my account and everybody sees the notes. With the new purchase account for the business, it started off at $53.99. The cost at my personal home was higher. It was $73.99. I asked if I could get a loyalty customer discount to make the prices even. Everybody said that they were going to do that. But this August month bill was still $73 that I had to pay.

    When I called making certain accounts are separate, they withdrew the $73.99 from my business banking account. I never had automatic draft set up for the account. I'm assuming since both of the accounts were combined, they assumed that they could take the payment for my personal home out of that account. Hopefully, at this point, the business account has been separated. The rep said that it was gonna be the $53.99 for my personal residence. I got to check on that and make certain that the rental property is still at $53.99.

So, we decided we'll go ahead and get covered, too. Our experience has been very good. We've had it where we inadvertently set it off. They've called to verify if the alarm was valid. They did an upgrade one time on it as well. Functionality is good. It's easy to set up the alarm when you leave and easy to turn it off when you come in. We usually control it with our phones. The price is creeping up each year, and I found out that our neighbor had a price that was a lot less. ADT was willing to negotiate with me to get the same price as my neighbor, so I was able to cut the price. Overall, ADT is a good company. They're very reliable.

    If I could leave ZERO stars that would be the choice. Please go on Facebook as well and see the BUYERS BEWARE stories.... This is a company that is NOT honorable and it is near impossible to stop the subscription. I called to cancel my elderly mom's service as she moved into a senior home. They easily cut the service to the house, but they never cancelled the billing, and my mom didn't recognize the name as she is aging and kept paying it.

    I called again and insisted that they stop the billing. They lied again and said okay, but did the same thing and kept billing. The house was still owned with NO need of service and the service was cut off, so who would think she was still paying it with automatic withdrawal. It took 4 calls to get it done finally. We were told you need to send an email and pay the last bill!!! My next step is to complain on the Better Business Bureau. PLEASE save yourself a headache and money and do NOT use this company.

    I do not feel safe with this company, false alarms. The installation was a joke, the door sensors were falling off the first day, called several times to get fixes. They told me to replace all batteries, which I did, then they sent tech over. I have been with them for 6 months and have called them several times, they will not let me get out of the contract even if I am totally dissatisfied. I shouldn't have to call so many times for fixes. Never again!!

    A nice lady talked to me about ADT. I figured with my age, security was quite important. She is primarily the reason that I took it. What I wanted to see was simplification, an easy-to-use system, and something I could depend on, even in bad weather. We live in Florida, so it's hurricane-prone. And if the power goes out, I've still got security for a little while. So far, ADT is pretty dependable. The agent I worked with was excellent. The agent was very professional and courteous. I've called her up a couple of times and asked questions. Had some issues at one point in time when I relocated, and it was good. She always took the time for me.

    We had a spike with the electrical. It was one of these occasions where it blinked, and then a few moments later, TVs went out, radios, and Alexa too. I never thought much about ADT going out until this morning when I went to go out, and I looked at the keypad, but it wasn't the usual keypad appearance. So, I checked it carefully and got my glasses. And what I had to do was reinstall the password, and it came up with the usual appearance. I've used them a little bit on my phone as well. It's nice to have that app where I can get in the car and set the alarm. Or if my daughter is coming over, she has a key, and she knows the code. But I can disconnect the alarm via telephone, and I like that.

    I was a customer with ADT for 10 years. Just recently, I’ve been having a lot of problems with my system and not getting the problem resolved after many attempts to get a service tech out to my house to fix the problem. ADT does NOT listen to its customers at all. Now the cancellation process is absolutely absurd. ADT, without my authorization, took over $1400 out of my account, of course, it was disputed. I contacted ADT, waited for over an hour to speak to someone, just for them to tell me they no longer send paper bills. Now I have to wait another week to speak to someone who barely speaks English, just for them to send me an email of my final bill. Guess ADT needs the money after they got sued. Customer service is absolutely horrible; you would be better off setting up your own system, and it would be much cheaper. Take it from me.

    I've been with ADT for a year and a half. I moved two years ago, so I needed a new alarm system. I saw their sign in a neighbor's yard and decided to call them. The installers were fantastic. They knew what they were doing and did a wonderful job. I had an interaction with an AI representative and it was helpful. I had an issue with my touchpad. It wasn't connecting to my internet. AI answered all of my questions and gave me step-by-step instructions on how to get it resolved and it worked. Also, the equipment works great. I feel very safe. It's just a little pricey. It went off a time or two accidentally and we were able to turn it back off.

It was a little pricey because we set alarms up on everything, such as when I drive off. I don't have to set it from inside the house. If I forget something inside, I can always go back in and just set the alarm again from my car. We've had other alarm systems before, but people should get ADT. It's the best system.

    CUSTOMERS BEWARE! After having service for over 20 years, we put our service on hold at a lower discount while we were under construction. I didn't realize that it was only for 3 months. Unfortunately our construction took over 2 and a 1 years without informing us that they were putting us back on full monitor. They've been charging us for over 2 years for full service on a system that was not even hooked up. Over a year ago we called to have it canceled. Because we weren't gonna have it installed in our new edition. They never put the cancellation in and it was monitored for another year for 7 of those months. We didn't even have a landline for it to be hooked into. They said it required a 30-day cancellation notice and charge us for another month. Even though our system is not here and no way for it to be hooked up.

    I felt they owed us to at Least cancel the last bill. And they said they could not, so they charged us for 3 years of service that we did not even receive and never even received a phone call, stating that there was a problem with our system. Or that our system was going off. Great security?? Spent a total of 2 hrs on hold.

    I rarely write negative reviews, but I feel a strong obligation to warn others to stay far away from ADT. Once you sign up, you are locked into a rigid 3-year contract that they use to force you to stay because their actual service and product quality are terrible. I am honestly considering paying off my entire 3-year balance right now just to be done with them. The issues are endless: The Equipment: The hardware is cheap. The only decent parts are the Google Nest cameras, but ADT isn't even properly integrated with them. You are forced to pay for a completely separate Google subscription just to save your video recordings on top of what you already pay ADT.

    The Software: The app experience is completely broken. You have to juggle multiple separate apps just to manage different basic features of your security plan, and the billing system frequently gives you issues when trying to make standard payments. The Contracts: They lock you down because they know no one would willingly stay with this level of service. Better Alternatives: If you want a reliable home security system, look elsewhere. For example, systems like Cove use Eufy products which are incredibly high quality, don't require forced monthly subscriptions to function, and allow you to cancel at any time if you aren't satisfied. Avoid ADT at all costs.

    I've been an ADT customer for over six years. I scheduled a routine service call for my alarm system. They told me the technician would arrive between 8 and noon. At 7:45 AM, someone started banging on my front door so hard it woke and startled my one-year-old. I let the technician, Ron, inside to look at my system. Before he even examined anything, he demanded $160. I'd been told the service fee was waived because I'd been paying monthly fees on a faulty system for months. I asked what the $160 was for. His response came in a loud, disrespectful tone: he'd leave if I had a problem with it.

    I kept my demeanor and asked for clarification. "IT'S FOR THE BATTERIES," he yelled with obvious frustration and aggression. I'd never paid $160 for batteries. I asked for details. His voice got louder: "YOU NEED 8 BATTERIES." At that point I asked Ron to tone down his voice and talk to me respectfully in my own home. Apparently this offended him. He said he was leaving and stormed out. I called ADT to cancel. Six years, done.

    I got transferred to retention and spoke with Adria. I told her I was cancelling on principle, not because of any offer. But Adria didn't push a discount. She listened like she actually believed in what ADT stood for. It took a lot, but she made me change my mind. Three days later, Jeff came out. He was cordial, knowledgeable, friendly, and finished the entire job in a fraction of the time Ron spent being hostile. I don't want to say it's a race thing, but it does seem like Ron has a history. And somehow ADT still thinks it's a good idea to keep someone like that on your payroll. You have people like Adria and Jeff who genuinely care. Don't let the pattern continue. Hire and keep more people who actually care.

One time I called because I needed a new keypad, and the techs came and put a whole bunch of new things.

    I've had instances where the alarm went off, and ADT called everybody on the list to let them know something was going on. One time they even sent the police because none of us were getting the notifications. The police checked and told ADT nothing was going on at the house. The system is reliable, and the price is good.

    I've been with ADT for about 32 years, and everything was fine. Then, I moved and got their new smart system. I was told I would get a new system at no cost. About two weeks after it was installed, I got an alert that the battery was low, although it was supposed to last for three years. I had to call ADT and they said they would have someone come. It was very inconvenient because I had to wait five hours for technicians, and sometimes they would call and say they were running late or ask to come another day.

    I had nothing but trouble with the system. A technician had to keep coming back, and I couldn't get my money back on it. I even filed a dispute through my credit card. At first, I won because ADT didn't answer, so I received a credit for what I had paid. Then they submitted all this paperwork, which I didn't have because ADT gives you nothing. Everything is through email. I ended up paying over $800 from December till February, and another $400 for the equipment. I also got different answers from different people depending on who I spoke with. One person would tell me one thing, and another would say I had been misinformed. ADT finally put in a system that is working well now but the whole experience was very stressful. I was good with them and I always paid my bills, and I stuck with them. I wouldn't have gone with them if I knew this was gonna happen.

    I have been with ADT before it was even called ADT. When I first signed up, it was called Rollins. It was 1990. It has gone through several ownerships since 30 years. I've lived in different homes over those years, but I've always continued my service. Overall, I'm very satisfied. When I moved to this home six months ago, the sales associate that I spoke to on the phone helped me and arranged for everything and the installation. The installer who came here was great. He hooked everything up nice. No mess. He was very considerate. He showed me how to do everything. There were a few times when I accidentally set off my alarm and the phone call came in immediately.

    I like the new system that I have. Very responsive. I use the app so I can arm and disarm my system while I'm sitting in the garage. I like the nighttime feature, because when it's bedtime for me and my dog, we put it on night. And should anything happen, that alarm goes off immediately. Go over the system with the sales associate so you pick the system that's right for you and your environment. And when it gets installed, have the installer go over everything with you and train you how to use it properly.

    I've been with ADT for two and a half years and I've had no problems with the system. It can always be cheaper though. I've added a doorbell and something else throughout the house, and it's working fine. I deal with a lot of technology, but I'm not really sharp there. However, whenever I call ADT and talk to the AI connect person, they walk me through things and every time they solved my problem.

    We've been with ADT for over 15 years. We were living in a different place, and when we moved, we transferred it over here. We had the system put in here about five years ago and while we've never had to use it, I'm glad we have it. We set it when we go to bed, and it's a bit of security. The monthly fees are a little pricey, but we're on 30 something dollars a month. I recommend ADT. They're a good company.

    I sometimes get a little bit frustrated when ADT's customer service department doesn't understand and doesn't have as much compassionate care as I think they should. I am 83, and my husband is going to be 91 on the 10th of this month. Right now, I need to call them because I need to have the windows washed. I know that I'm going to have a problem because all my windows have sensors on them.

    The people who wash the windows are not gonna be sensitive to my windows having the caregivers on there. My windows say, "Windows open, windows closed." My doors say all of that because we live right next door to a park. I need to be as secure as I possibly can. But that's normally the only fight that I have with ADT. Not so long ago, I was going to upgrade my system. And when I found out how much it costs, I decided to back off on that. I recommended my niece to them because they are right on it. If something happens, even if I make a mistake, if I don't hit the right button, they'll call and make sure I'm okay. Other than those two little things, I don't plan to go anywhere.

    In the first house, ADT was wonderful. In this house, the ADT technology has gotten too fancy. I hate the touchpad thing. It doesn't read my fingers when I punch in my buttons. It's also hard to get stuff done. We just got the house less than a year ago and we put ADT right in. The poor man who did the installation could not get any assistance from ADT. He ran into a couple of hitches and he had to stay on hold for almost an hour a couple of times. It was a nightmare for him.

    Support from ADT is horrible and it's been just as bad for us. The customer service is a zero out of 10. Most recently, my phone would start giving me a notification for every single movement it detected in the house. In the middle of the night, I have to cross a hallway and I would get two notifications that I crossed the hallway to go into the bathroom. One from ADT and another from Google Home. When I'm done using the bathroom, I cross back into my room and I get another two notifications. It's four notifications just to go to the bathroom. It took two days' worth of work to get that settled out. With previous events too, half the time you're sitting on hold. The hold time is ridiculous and so is navigating the menus. The AI bot is horrible as well.

    The service provided itself is great. It's very responsive and quick. The people I talked to were wonderful and they were doing the best job they could. It's not like they were incompetent. Mary, the last lady I talked to, was the most wonderful person in the world. But I was on the phone with her for hours. My mom was also on the phone with them on that day for three hours. Later, we went on a three-way call with a tech or three hours. That was a total of 12 hours that day between me and my mom trying to solve a problem. They're having to transfer you about two or three times per phone call. You can't navigate to the correct people so you wait for half an hour to an hour then they put you on hold to somebody else.

I looked at my bill the other day, and it looks great. I'm proud of it. The last ones I've had were way over $100. This is 60 and some dollars. I thought, “Wow, that’s cool. I like that.” I can afford it. The customer service is great too.

    The system works well, but I haven't had too much of my stuff hooked up to it right now. The only thing I've noticed is when I go outside of my house, then the Wi-Fi cuts off, and I end up having to switch to my mobile. If someone's considering ADT and their other options have been closed out, and that's the only thing they have, I’d tell them to go for it.

    My experience trying to cancel my ADT service was one of the most frustrating customer service interactions I have ever had. I was placed on hold for an extended period before reaching an agent who appeared to be trained to make the cancellation process as difficult as possible. Despite repeatedly stating that I wanted to cancel my service, the representative refused to proceed and continually attempted to delay the process rather than honor my clear request. When I asked to speak with a supervisor, that request was also denied.

    The entire interaction felt unnecessarily adversarial and filled with aggressive retention tactics designed to wear down the customer instead of providing professional service. A company should respect a customer's decision, even when they choose to end their service. Based on this experience alone, I would not recommend ADT to anyone who values transparent, respectful customer service.

    I like ADT. If I have any problems, they either help me over the phone or I've had servicemen come out to add additional cameras, ‘cause I had a room added. Service-wise, I love it. And a friend of mine recommended ADT. I've been with them for a couple of years now. Their system has been excellent. I like the fact that I can keep track of it when I'm not at home. They're also quick to answer if an alarm goes off. If it's not turned off immediately, they give me a call. One time, I had been out of town for about a week, came home, and accidentally forgot to turn the alarm off. They called. And it wouldn't go off with my phone or with the little remote. And I forgot my login. They were helpful in giving me that information to get it turned off before any fire chief or police came to the house. I would definitely recommend it.

    I have been stuck with ADT for three long years, paying nearly $80 a month for a system that has been a nightmare to get help with ever since the day it was installed. Their agents are trained to confuse and fool customers rather than actually help or explain how things work. When my three-year contract finally ended, I called specifically to cancel. Instead, they reeled me back in with a supposedly great offer to lower my rate to just $18 a month, completely lacking any basic honesty or integrity. What they intentionally failed to tell me—and neatly hid in their deceptive pitch—was that this massive discount came with secretly stripping away essential features, most importantly my video history. Their shady tactics prove they care more about locking you into a new agreement than being transparent. Save your money and look elsewhere, or, get a dog, better than ADT.

    ADT is a good, reliable service that has a variety of products. You ought to check it out. Our system was already here when we moved in. That has been 37 years. We've had some times when we had a missed call. We had a false alarm. They call, and we’d tell them it's okay. Also, we've had one break-in. We were out of town. The sequence of calls was correct. The police were able to come out. We had a vulnerability, and the attackers were able to get in and steal a lot of stuff. The system deterred them. After that, we had ADT come and do some additional work with us. They did correctly everything they were supposed to. We've had some additions to the system, so we had to set up those things. And we've had some batteries that went out, and we ordered. They've all been very helpful, good, and responsive.

    We have used ADT for a number of years and we've been very pleased with it. We've moved from place to place and taken it with us. When we moved into our new house, we got ADT to come in while we were still building the house and got everything done ahead of time that needed to be done. So, when we moved in, we could get them to come back one last time and set it up, and we were done. With ADT, we have the ability to turn things on and off remotely and we also get some sort of information about what happened.

    I'm very satisfied with the package I have. They gave me a flat rate about two years ago, and they haven't changed that. I've had really good experiences with ADT's customer service too. We had a glitch one time when something went off in the middle of the night, and we were struggling to get it to stop. Suddenly, the battery died in the middle of the night and everything started beeping. It took a while in the middle of the night, but we finally got it sorted out. That was the only blip we've had.

    We bought the house and whenever you buy a house, for some reason, people start coming to your doors for solar and alarms. The company that we went with, ADT, has been very good. Having the system is great, especially having kids. We can also utilize the app whenever we need to see if it's armed or disarmed. I still have to go through the system and make sure everything's functioning properly. But it does its job as far as when the doors opens or there's movement in the home. When we're home, it alerts us right away. It's pretty good and very user-friendly.

    We feel very secure with ADT. The only hiccup was when we were trying to do the alarm, it had gone off a couple times. Then I got a bill from our local police department. We were supposed to register it, but I had no idea we were supposed to do that so I got hit with a $200 fine. I also called ADT and asked was there any way they could send someone out to give me and my family a real quick tutorial. They sent someone out, but they tried to charge me $50. I didn't know that there was a $50 fee because I would have just called the contractor who had gone out there that said they would come out and do it for free instead of being charged the $50. But I talked to a representative at ADT and they took care of me pretty well on that situation.

We also have the extra display that's portable where I can set it. I can also look at my cameras if I have it on my nightstand at my bed at night. I put it on my counter in the kitchen. It shows me all my pictures of all my loved ones on the continuous screen where they show pictures. And there's a lot of things with ADT that you don't get from the others. If you fail to protect yourself, and it's over money, it's a no-brainer. Everything could be taken away from you in three or four seconds by a break-in. And somebody could lose their life.

    I would never recommend ADT. The technician used high-pressure sales tactics while installing my system. He had my phone during the setup, and I was home alone caring for my three young children. I was distracted and never knowingly agreed to a 60-month contract. I’m now trying to have this properly investigated or be released from a contract that I dispute. Instead, ADT has made the process incredibly difficult. The signature on the agreement is not my original handwritten signature, and the contract also states that the services and terms were explained to me, which was not my experience. Had I understood I was agreeing to a five-year commitment, I would have declined immediately. This experience has left me feeling misled and taken advantage of. I encourage anyone considering ADT to find a more honest company.

We got that resolved but they're horrible quality and we've had multiple problems. We've had multiple tech visits, we've had them ship multiple ones and I've had to ship back the broken ones. If my parents weren't in their 90s, I would get them Apple watches immediately, but it's just too much data for them to be wearing that. ADT needs to do better on those.
