ADT is reputable. They've been around forever and I know a lot of people that use them. I like their history and reliability. I've been with them for years and they're good. When I had to buy a new battery, they sent it to me and I put it in myself.
Thank you for the 5 star review!

At the time that I acquired services through ADT, I thought they were the better choice. But not so much now. They're not what I thought they were. I've seen things and been through things with ADT, having to get simple things straightened out. I had two accounts, and as I was going through the experience and sharing it with people, they were saying, "I don't know why you went with ADT. They're the worst." The system works except for my cameras that doesn't constantly work. For the camera above the garage, when I'm logging on to try to see video, it may log on or may not. It'll say for me to run some type of test, asking if the Wi-Fi password has changed. As I'm trying to go through and do everything, it still doesn't resolve the problem, then all of a sudden, it'll pop back up one day where it's working.
It is easy to call and get in contact with someone but I'm not as satisfied as I should be. There's some improvement ADT needs to do that they're not doing. I don't think there's any communication when you're trying to call. If you call, talk to a rep and get disconnected, the next day, your problem is still not rectified. One person was telling me one thing and another person was telling me something else. Having to go through that for over a month with a property that had sold and had the owner to sign up with ADT to take over my contract was the biggest headache that I had to go through.

When I moved to this house, ADT did a wiring and secured all the windows. But after the lightning hit, the windows are no longer secure. ADT didn't replace anything but we're thinking about at some point upgrading our system. They send out a report to my email every month letting me know I'm still connected but my house is not totally secure. There are no cameras and phone services. Right now, I have the bare minimum security from ADT though I have a sign out in front of my house which might deter folks.

ADT keeps my house secure but I wouldn’t recommend them to anybody. I had some windows replaced. The sensors all work except for the front window. I asked ADT to send me a new sensor but they won't even do that. They said they don't send those through the mail. They want to charge me to come out and replace it. if I'm wanting their equipment, I shouldn't have to do that. Customer service sucks. They should treat their customers with some respect. They should be out here, fixing the problem. I'm on a contract with them and if I try breaking the contract, they're gonna charge me.

The rep was very patient and answered my questions on what to do. The installation took some time, but it was right. It’s very pricey for having a house full of people but the system has been good so far. However, I didn't get a guy back out here. I don't like that they don't hold the charge and the batteries don't last that long. With it being summer time, I have grandkids who are running in and out. I have so much traffic where the camera at the back doesn't stay charged. We can't run a cord to that because they'll see it. It doesn't make any sense to have it there like that. I need to have one more camera. I have one at the back and on the side. I have some inside the home because there are a lot of kids in my basement and they steal things.

ADT is the worst anybody can ever have and every chance I get to put it out there, I'm gonna put it out there. I got ADT and I pay for it every month because they work against people who don't have it. ADT wasn’t bad until they showed me for 20 years they’re not gonna protect my house. An anti-jammer blocks the signals and that allows my next-door neighbor to come in my house. He stole all my clothes and took my chandeliers out of the ceiling. He took the speakers out of the components and stole my air fryer. And then last week, he came back and took some more dishes out of the kitchen again. I call ADT and tell them but they do nothing about it. They keep telling me it’s working on their end. I'm losing everything. I go out of the house and I have to take six bags like a bag lady. I'm 68 years old and I shouldn't have to be going through this. I thought I moved here to be settled down and to be in a quiet neighborhood.

ADT was one of the best ones around and when I moved, I ended up going with them again. A guy did the installation and explained everything. I contacted him whenever I had an issue. Then, he must have quit or moved, and someone else came. I have one window now that is not reading on the system but I did not report it because I wanna have a hurricane window put in there eventually. People should get ADT. They always came when I had an issue.

Their customer service was very nice. They weren't rude. But I'm not happy with ADT. I have a camera that's not working and they troubleshot it, but it still doesn't work. I said, “Can you please come out to my house?” They didn't wanna come out and said, “No, we're gonna charge you so much money to come out.” I said, “Forget it.”

I'm moving overseas, so canceling the service of ADT was a natural course of moving. I'm not gonna have that service over there. But I've heard that those who canceled because of poor service, get the runaround. I’m not gonna play that game. There were some nice things about the service, but the detractors really pulled that down. Part of the reason why I stopped service with them is they wanted to charge me $80 for them to come out and take a look at the panel, a panel that they installed that filled their own update. I said, “I'll save myself the service fee per month and just terminate service.” They have a good customer service presence in the beginning. They install it professionally. But they always find some way to put you over the rock for coming up for a service call or fix something that was their faulty equipment.

I love ADT. I've been with ADT for 27 years. I have no problems with them. I would never leave ADT. Brinks and several companies have tried to get me. But ADT is a really good company and they care about the clients. I always brag about them. I have a relationship with the techs who come to my house. I feel comfortable enough that I don't even have to be here if they come here. I've never had an issue that wasn't resolved.

When I bought this house, ADT was already in it. So, it’d be the best use of my money and time to have them continue. Being able to control the system from my Apple Watch is a favorite feature of mine. But right after I had ADT do the upgrade, they partnered with Google. Had I waited a couple of weeks, I would have been able to get some of the Google products that they have. But now, I don't have them.

I'm getting rid of ADT. It's getting too expensive. With technology changing a lot of things, I can save a lot of money. There are better options for less money.

I'm not satisfied at all with ADT. After having it for nearly 29 years, I may have to change. I am looking into alternatives now. There are numerous things that go on and they are charging an arm and a leg for my security system. It's about $65 or so per month and what am I getting? Two of the sensors are not working. When I called and told them, they said, "We will charge you money." Then whenever I go on vacation out of the country, it's impossible that at least three false alarms will not be there. I do not know how and why the false alarm occurs. I have to pay $75 per false alarm. The police came and there was nothing there.
My money is being wasted completely with ADT. I even go for a week and there are at least two false alarms. I go for a month, there are three to four false alarms. Before this, in 2023, there were four false alarms. I paid $75 per false alarm to the Village of Woodridge Police Department. I'm not here to just shell out money and ADT does not take care of my thing.
One technician came out to inspect our home. My daughter was there. She got everything examined because the false alarms had already happened three times. He said one of the sensors was malfunctioning, but nobody opened the door. So, that had nothing to do with the alarm system. I'm pretty savvy and well-informed on the ADT alarm system by now. Also, after he left, there was another false alarm 15 days later. 10 years ago, I told them that I wanted another remote for my children's bedroom so that they could arm and disarm right from their bedroom. There was no action taken. I could go on and on with what's happening with ADT. The only plus thing is that I asked for a new ADT sign, and they sent me two yard signs.

I'm not happy with ADT. When I signed up for their service, they promised me a $100 promotional gift card, which they never gave me. They stopped responding after the serviceman came to my home to sign up for this service. He stopped responding. I called ADT customer care, and they just say, "Oh, we don't have any record of this promotion." So, I'm just waiting for the contract to expire so I can get out of this ADT service. Also, when I was out of home, I received a burglar alarm on my phone, but 911 was not notified. I have no idea what triggered that burglar alarm. ADT doesn't have any clue. They should have better customer care and they should live up to their promises they made to the customers.

I'm not happy with ADT. They try to take advantage of people that buy new homes and convince you to sign up for things you don't really need for services. The only reason I got the coverage last August is because it came hooked up to the house as a smart system with a brand-new home. The guy came and hooked it up. I fell for the extra coverage that I didn't really have to get. Apparently, a lot of homeowners in the neighborhood fell for that as well, and I didn't know that you didn't have to have all that extra coverage and pay for all this. It wasn't even anything I really needed, and it's not even anything that good. I could have just bought the same stuff through my actual homeowners insurance who apparently offered the same type of thing and they would have given me the same equipment. So, it was a rip-off. Also, they make you stay signed up for a few years at that price. It's ridiculous.

I am not too happy with ADT in general. Unfortunately, I did not read the fine print. I don't appreciate garbled explanation and contracts. I wasn't aware that once I signed up, I would be locked in for three years. I hated that. Then when I went to contact the tech who was supposed to come out and get everything installed, it took over a month for him to come back out to look at the security system that he installed and spent 10 minutes there when I had called every other day for a month and a half straight to get him out.
The problem is that ADT is not just ADT. There's a mother company and no one told me that. I was calling ADT this whole time and they couldn't help me. I was being transferred to every possible customer service representative that they had. Finally, they got me over to the mother company who's the one that holds all the accounts and contracts. Right off the bat, it was the worst experience. I've got my internet or electric or water company that reaches out to me every so often to ask how everything's going. ADT has not reached out once and neither has the mother company. I've made it my point that I will never recommend ADT to anyone ever.

The service people that came out and did the service were on the money. They kept their appointments and knew what they were doing. They also gave me instructions on how to use the services. ADT also sent me the information that they had other services they offer that I could purchase. They told me if there was anything I needed from them, I can call. When I need something, I call them directly. They either help me out on the phone or give me what I need, if I have to have an appointment. Those things are on the website but the phone is much more efficient. I can resolve the problems quicker. When you send the stuff on the website, it takes them a while to respond to it because they got other people. If I directly call them, then I get a response like that. ADT is fair and honest. They accomplished what they said they were gonna do and that's all I can ask for. For the amount of service that I pay for a month, the service has been excellent.

I got fed a bunch of crap and I'm not happy about it at all. The salesman promised us all this stuff. I was not aware they were a third party. I was thinking it was ADT. Once they came in and hooked everything up, we told them we had a dog and wanted a motion sensor in the house. They said they got a motion sensor that would work very well with an 80-pound dog or less. We got the motion sensor and paid all this money for it.
When we set the alarm and left, we weren't gone five minutes down the road and we were getting a call from ADT saying somebody had broken into the house. We came back home and they said the motion sensor went off. My 5-pound dog jumped on the couch and set it off. They said the sensor must be faulty and they'd send somebody out to look at it. They sent somebody out but couldn't find anything wrong with it or with the placement. They said, “It must be faulty. We'll just give you a new one. We'll switch it out.” They switched it out.
We went somewhere and set the alarm. Five minutes later, the alarm company called me telling me the motion sensor was going off again. They came back out again. I ended up having to have it taken off completely. They told me it was a lot better if I get the window sensors. It was gonna be another $1,000 to do all the windows. But when they first sold me the alarm, they told me how secure I was, that it was all perfect. They sold me some glass break sensors and they put them in, centrally located. I asked if those were gonna cover all the windows and they said yes. Later on they said if someone breaks in the window in the bedroom, it probably won't hear that one because it's far.
They put the cameras over my garage. I got one outside camera. That camera started not working. It kept glitching. I couldn't see the video. After telling me that I had everything I needed, they were telling me my internet was not fast enough. I needed faster internet because it was not reaching the camera outside and I need more cameras that I gotta pay more money for. I called my internet provider, and they upped me from 100 megabytes to 500 megabytes. But the camera keeps freezing and still doesn't work right. It won't download videos or stay on. I called them back and they said my router is too far away from the garage. I told them every house has a router in the front room. I had to buy a device to plug into the wall closer to the router to transfer signal. That was 50 bucks. Once I did that, it started working.
I couldn't get my doorbell camera to work half the time. I told them, "You guys have been installing these systems for how many years now. You knew when you installed my system that I was gonna have all these issues." But they didn't wanna tell me how much it was gonna cost me. I had to go buy all this stuff on my own to get what they installed to work. Once I got my system installed, the managers were supposed to call me back but they never called me. They said, “You gotta understand, they're out in the field.” I said, “You gotta understand, I'm a new customer that they promised things.” They haven't called me in over a year. Now that ADT has got my monthly payment, they're done with me. They won’t call me about anything else. No upgrades. No nothing. They screwed me over and that was the end of it.

I've been satisfied with the service over the many years that we've had ADT. When I've had them to do something, they've been very good. There are other systems that have come out, but so far, ADT has worked perfectly for what we've done. I'm an older guy that lives by himself, and I when I go out, it's my little remote that I have for setting the alarm and coming back in. I'm moving slower so I don't have to go down the hallway to get to the main unit. I've also connected it through various other electronic devices I have to talk to and control things that when I need help, I can quickly call them. However, over the years, everything is becoming harder to talk to a real person. I had called them to deal with the batteries on the sensor. I get frustrated a lot nowadays because of not being able to go to a talking person. I have to go through that menu to get to someone that I can talk to directly.

ADT is a well-known security system and I've been protected by them for 30 years. They upgraded our system 10 years ago and I find it a tad bit confusing when they did. They didn't give us any instructions on how to use it. They said we could go online and get the instructions rather than give us a pamphlet. I find it not as easy to use as my basic system was. I don't use it when I go to the grocery store or at night. I don't trust that it would be safe for me to set the away with my animals. We use it when we go on vacation and we put the animals at our neighbor's house.

ADT bought out the other company I was with and now price is higher than what we were paying. Also, they have not converted the phone app that I use over to ADT’s app yet. It's still alarm.com. But everything is simple to use on that app. Before ADT buys another company, they should get an idea of the equipment that that other company has so it's not so hard. We had to wait on ADT to get the parts for my camera because it's a different style camera that ADT doesn't use. That's the one thing I wish they would have done so they wouldn't have to come out there multiple times for the same issue.

The alarm works as expected, and I like that when the doors or windows open, the alarm would talk and verify which door or window is open or being accessed. When the alarm goes off though, no one calls. My previous alarm company would always call and make sure everything is verified, even if it just went off by accident.
ADT called me about four months ago to renew the contract, and at that time, I expressed what I felt about them, that they can have somebody call me. I said, "There's no need to. You can call for money, but your customer service is poor." I don't need the alarm, and I'd like to cut it off, but my wife wants it. I work at night and if the alarm goes off, she knows the house is secure. There's a sense of security.

Almost three years ago, an ADT salesman came and said that since we just bought the house here, they had some special offer for us.

The installer put in the ones that we purchased, then he offered to sell us more, but I didn't want more. Besides that, it was well cleaned up after he was done. The features of the system are nice too. I'm not sure how to change the batteries, but I'll figure that out.
ADT got a little expensive after a while, because I'm on a fixed income, but I live out in the country so it's good to have security. We had a power outage recently, and the system sent an alert to the local police department, which was a good thing because it's good to know that it works.

We live on 20 acres outside of town. Our house sits back off the road a little bit so there was a potential of robbery. When we built the house, we went with ADT. It's the Cadillac of security systems. Two years ago, we did a complete upgrade. They upgraded the alarm system on the windows and the doors that go to the outside. We have sliding glass doors that have a sensor that indicates that the door is being broken, which works well for us. They've got sensors inside the house as well. I use the app on the phone if I'm gonna be leaving then I can disarm it through my phone as I come back or as I'm close to the house.
I also have a driveway alarm since the driveway is 200 feet long. We originally went with a sensor that you break the beam, and it shuts and sends an alarm into the house. The problem with that is if leaves or branches or animals move in front of it, it breaks that beam so you get to the point where your alarm go off but there's nobody there. We ended up getting the model that senses the passage of heavy metal as it goes by it and is buried in the ground. If somebody pulls into the driveway and drives more than halfway down the driveway, they won't see the alarm, but I can hear it from inside the house.
When we bought the original system, we had the placard that you attach to the outside. Weather and time have reduced it to almost unrecognizable except for the shape. I sent to ADT and told them that that happened. They sent me two brand new ones. I changed the position of that one so it doesn't face the sun anymore ‘cause the sun will bleach out the blue. Then I have the other one in the house as a spare if something happened to that one. The price is another plus. With my home insurance, I can get almost the fee for the service taken off my premiums because I have the service.

In the beginning, everything was falling off the wall. The installers couldn't hook up the camera system and the double-sided sticky tape wasn’t sufficient enough to stick the little sensor to the wall so I kept having the sensors fall off. So, they'll have to be inactive whenever I arm my alarm until they come back. It was like that for about a week. But other than that, it's doing good now that we got everything stuck to the wall again. The initial guy was cool but he couldn’t finish everything. I had three different people come to do it and they were helpful. The installers plugged the system up and we synced up. And it was up and running. Sometimes, I can’t turn it on because I've never had it before. But it’s been a good experience so far.

ADT sucks. My experience with them has been highly negative. The 2 years that I've had them have been financial hell. When I got the flyer, I made a mistake and that's on me. I was not reading the fine print. I thought I was going to be able to get ADT for 30 bucks. But in the fine print, it said you gotta have a landline, which I do not. The guy who installed it did not explain it. All of a sudden, 30 bucks turned into 50 bucks. I now pay 65 bucks a month to ADT because they have raised their price. I'm 78 years old and living on social security. Also, my housemates still get kicked off from the app on the phone. They have to come through me to get a code. We give it to them, hopefully, within their time limit then they can lock or unlock the alarm.
ADT gave me motion sensors in the house that could be activated by something over 50 pounds. I didn't know any of my cats were over 50 pounds. The motion sensors get set off by my cats. We tried to turn the sensors off but there is no way to do that. I'm a little slow now because I've got a torn meniscus. One of my other roommates is even slower so we can't just push the button and run. We have to go outside and use our phones. We had to pay extra for the basics that were needed.

It's easy to get in contact with an ADT rep. I can go online or call. I haven't done it recently, but I've done it a couple times initially. I have door and window things that tell me if they're open or not. With my garage door, one kept going off for a while and we got that taken care of. A guy came out and changed all the batteries and looked at everything. I mentioned that I don't think one of the motion sensors is working, but I was told it's working. Other than that, everything's been fine. Overall though, the system isn't the greatest, and I'm looking to change it.

The features that come with my system are good but not that good. But I haven’t upgraded because ADT wanna charge you twice what it’s worth. I'm paying for my system but I haven't been using it for probably the last eight months. It's got a sensor that's not working right. Previously, it took me a minute for my other issues. You call and then, you call again and ask if somebody’s gonna come fix it. ADT sucks. I have not seen anybody or even a phone call or even an attempt to even see if everything's okay or if the system is even working.

I have had different issues with my front door camera. It's not working. ADT did not and will not allow me to get out of contract. There were several attempts to try to get the front door working. They haven't other options as far as what I can do. I didn't like that everything has to be Bluetooth or nothing can be battery-operated. Everything has to be wired.
The transformer was too weak. So, it wasn't holding it. ADT gave me a transformer to get an electrician to come replace it. And I had it replaced. That was the first electrician that I had to pay for to change the transformer. But it didn't work. The front door camera kept going out altogether. I couldn't restart it. And they said, “Now, the transformer is too powerful.” It gave too much voltage to the front door camera, so it made it automatically power off. I spoke to an ADT service manager who contacted me and asked me to get the correct transformer and have ADT and the electrician here at the same time. I did that. But we still weren't able to come up with anything. That was when the electrician finally determined that the wire is now bad.
After months of having months of having ADT come out and try to repair it, I've spent much money on having different people come out and taking off work to have ADT fix my front door camera, we found out that it was a wire issue. ADT doesn't have other options as far as me having a front door camera that isn't wired, instead of other options out there like Ring that has battery-operated. That way, I could at least get the wired issues addressed and have to come back out and fix it. So, I have to get an electrician to come out and fix the wired. But I'm still in contract for a service that I don't have with ADT.
If I cancel, I have to pay 75% of the remaining balance of the contract. And it doesn't sound right, especially since I couldn't even use the service. I've had issues since week two. They have full documentation of everything that has been going on, how many times their reps have been out here, how many times I've called to reset the camera. I haven't had a month when I've had all services working correctly.
At first, I bought this house and ADT installed the alarm panel on the wall and had the battery in my bathroom that blew out my entire up, downstairs, and middle outlet because it was too powerful. And they messed up the front door camera. So, it has been a lot. The experience for not even six months has been horrible. I can't wait for my three-year contract to be over so I could cancel since they wouldn't let me cancel it now.

I'm not happy with ADT. My service has not been working for over a year. I asked them to come out and service it and they told me I have to pay a fee, which I have had other security services on other homes and they do a yearly check. Then when I try to cancel when I called in my trouble, they told me I couldn't cancel through the people that I was talking to about my problems with ADT. So, I'm paying for no service.
When I do try to use the system, it continuously beeps and keeps people up at night. So, I have to just not use it at all. Then, they give you instructions online on how to change the battery, but the instructions don't match the type of equipment that I have. They told me in order to make an appointment for someone to come out, there would be a fee. I called the support services and I was talking to them about trying to set the appointment. When they told me there would be a fee for them to come out, I said, "Well, I wanna cancel my service now." They said, "You can't cancel through us." I was so frustrated, I did not. Shame on me because I'm still paying for a service that I can't use. They sent me a survey about their service and I put down how bad it was. You would think they would do a follow-up call.

The last time I tried to talk with ADT, I did not have a good experience. The local EMS people in the county I live in gave everybody a new address. I called ADT about a problem. And in the process of that problem, I told them I needed to get my address changed. The person that took my call argued me up and down that the address they had on file was the house. They could transfer that account to a new house.
I kept trying to tell them it was my original house. It was the house the system was installed in. I had lived in it 47 years. And all I needed to do was change the number of the street. And this person did not understand or could not understand. It was someone with a heavy accent that I could not catch all that she was saying. I was right at the point of telling her that I would drop my ADT subscription. ADT needs to train your people, whoever it is that takes phone calls, that when someone calls and tells them they need to change an address, because somebody else had done it, they were living in the same house, they don't need to try to convince them they can't move it to another house.
This has been over a month ago, and I asked at the time to speak to a supervisor. Finally got someone else on the phone that helped me that got the address changed. I asked to have someone contact me at that time. No one did. I got an email a couple of weeks after that, and I put on the email I gave ADT a very low rating, and I told them then I wanted someone to contact me. I was very dissatisfied with the service I received.

The unit was so old that the buttons you pushed to set it were wearing out. They were little things that stuck up and when you push them down, they didn't always connect. ADT put a new panel in and the new panel is easier to set and arm and disarm because you're just touching it. You're not pushing a button that has to go down so the new technology makes it easier to set to arm and disarm the unit. We added a room and we had to move the sensor that was on what used to be the sliding patio door to the new back door, and the techs came out and did that, and that worked out fine. We haven't had any break-ins so we haven't had any need to notify ADT. So it's like they haven't done anything, but that's good. The few times we dealt with customer service has been positive. It's very limited but at any time I contacted them, everything got taken care of right away.

We signed up with ADT 15+ years ago and we upgraded when we moved to a larger house. If there was another company with a more competitive price, we would explore that. ADT’s prices are not as competitive as some other companies. But in our particular situation, they took over an existing alarm system and there were no other security companies doing that. So, we were triangulated into sticking with them. But ADT has a perfectly good customer service. The reps are nice folks and very helpful up to and including my most recent conversation. The price keeps going up though. You already have the system but they want to nickel and dime you to use the basic app, which is a given for any kind of modern product. So, it's a little bit off-putting that you're spending so much and they're still going to make you jump through hoops to use what should be an inherent part of the system.

A home security system was already installed in the home that I bought and a salesman showed up at my door one day, right after I bought the house. He talked me into getting ADT. I was not pleased with how they coerced me. At some point, they said it was required to switch the objects that were already here at the house. A new system was being installed and it needed to all match up to some model number. So they switched everything.
The customer service was responsive when I reached out to them. But I didn’t prefer their answer. It was shortly after I had the system installed when I was second-guessing. But it was too late because I was already locked into a contract. So they told me that there was nothing they could do for me. The reps are salespeople trying to sell something to you. Everybody has different living situations or what they need a product like ADT for. So they need to make sure that they need the product before they agree to it.

I recently had a new ADT security system installed at my home, and let me tell you, it's been a game-changer! The seven Google Nest cameras are absolutely fantastic. They have this amazing ability to quickly detect and alert you to any person seen on your smartphone from up to 300 feet away. What's even better is that they only alert you if a person is detected, and you can even customize the cameras to detect any moving object. Plus, the cameras store their recordings for a generous 60 days. And let's not forget about the motion sensors - they work like a charm! The phone app that comes with the system is packed with features that are super handy.
Honestly, I haven't felt the need to tweak anything because the ADT system is just that good out of the box. And here's a big bonus - all the installers are ADT employees, no subcontractors involved.

I’ve had the alarm system since 2016. At first everything was great with no issues. Sometime later in 2022 we were told we needed and upgraded with 5G capabilities. The price was put into our billing service, and we went ahead with the upgrade which they stated we required. After the upgrade we began having issues with the cameras and sensors. I made numerous calls to ADT which then would send a Tech to correct the issues. When the tech comes to correct any issues like sensors malfunctioning, the camera issues would disappear. Sometime in April of 2024 I contacted ADT and notified them of our sensor door malfunctioning and our cameras being out for close to a month. ADT could not resolve the issues and stated they would send a tech out to our home.
ADT waived our bill for the month due to this ongoing issue of cameras or sensors not working. We were told it would take almost a month before the tech could come out to correct any issue. The tech was scheduled to come out to my home on May 13, 2024. Mind you since 2016 I’ve been paying my bill faithfully. When the tech finally came out, he corrected the issue of the sensor for the door and then I was told for him to check the cameras I would be charged $150.00 for the first 30 minutes and any additional 30 minutes would run at $150.00 more. I explained to the tech ADT representative never mentioned the charge. I told the tech to stop, and I would be contacting ADT.
When I contacted ADT on May 13, 2024, after the tech left, I mentioned since 2016 I’ve been a faithful client and since the upgrade we have been having issues with the cameras. And it seems ADT is not willing to fix the issue and my home is not secured 100%. The ADT representative stated he could not do anything else. And at this point I was not breaking the contract, but ADT was breaking the contract by not providing the correct security for my home. I went ahead and wrote a letter requesting cancellation due to the failure of ADT not being able to secure my home. I received a phone call the following day and mentioned to them of my decision. The representative stated he would put in the cancellation.
On June 17, 2024, I was charged my next bill, I immediately contacted ADT and mentioned to them why was I still being charged. They stated it was due to me still owning equipment and it would not be feasible to terminate. I stated ADT is the one breaking the contract when it cannot live by its obligations to secure my home. We went back and forth to whoever was breaking the contract ADT terminated my contract and stated, "You will receive an invoice and you might still be liable for the equipment." On June 19, 2024, close to $500.00 was deducted from my checking account. ADT should be ashamed of themselves. I suggest if you are looking for an alarm system don’t go with ADT.

The system works good. Coming home, you know nothing's in your house or was in your house. ADT should offer people cameras. If I wouldn't be paying for that, I would just have a door Ring cam. But the experience has been great so far. I just don't like the three-year contract. It’s $50 a month. It's a three year contract you can't get out of.

The ADT salesman came to the house and told me many things. He said two things that sold me. Number one, if our alarm went off, they would come to the house to verify before they called the police so there wouldn't be any problems with us calling the Warren police for false alarms. That was fantastic. Because I've heard horror stories where alarms have gone off and people would be out of the area and the police come, and people would get a bill. The other thing he said was, "And the great thing is we set the system up for you. And then any time you need any repairs or the batteries in the big thing need to be redone, just call us and we'll come and do it." They were a little more than other people. But I'm happy to pay the extra.
Mother's Day, we had gone up north. The alarm went off on my phone and I had no idea what was going on. When I got back home, I contacted ADT and asked, "Why did the Warren police come?" "Your alarm went off and no one answered it." I said, "Yeah. But supposedly, you guys are supposed to..." "That's only in certain areas." But that's not what the salesman said.
The person I spoke to said, "No, it's in gated areas only." I said, "Someone should have told me that because Lord knows Warren ain't gated." I was upset and told them that's not what they had promised. I asked if they could come and fix this it. "We can walk you through it." I said, "What do you mean walk me through it? You told me that you would come and fix this stuff." They said, "We will, but it's a $60 charge to come to the house." And I said, "That is not what you told me either." I got very upset and I spoke to a manager who said, "Very sorry. You understood that wrong." I said, "I didn't understand it wrong if you would have said, 'But you don't have it in that area.'"
They gave me two months free monitoring to make up for it. And at this point, I already got it set up, I've already got the signage out, I've already set it up for autopay. I'm angry with ADT, but I'm not gonna go through a new company because it's a pain. After those two months, everything was on autopay. I didn't wanna deal with it. I didn't pay attention to that account that the money was taken out of because I put money in it.
Six months went by and I got calls and thought they were sales calls and I would just hang up or delete. I noticed getting the same calls from the same number. I finally answered it and it was ADT. They were very upset because I'm six months past due in my payments on my monitoring. I said, "What? It's on autopay. I see money being taken out by ADT every month now." Stupid me, I never looked close enough. What was being taken out every month was the equipment. Once they gave me those two free months, they never put it back on autopay. Maybe they couldn't and they misunderstood.
We tried it again. I had one lady tell me, "If this doesn't take, you call back and ask for me and I will credit you the month because this is just crazy." It didn't work. I called her, but she doesn't exist there anymore. I would explain this story over and over every time and I would be frustrated because, when they would call, they would act as if it was a brand-new situation. It was three months ago we finally got it solved, where I have not had a problem since.
I went out with my sister last month and I got a text message while I was with her from ADT saying that I was past due. I called them and the person said, there was a problem with their entire system that everybody got this past due notice. I said, "Okay. So that's a tech issue." He said, "No, you're up to date. Everything's fine. You're on autopay."

The guy that sold me the contract for $10,000 only put in a few things and never even put the sirens in. I had to have ADT come back out and put sirens. But they didn't believe me and they sent somebody out of Murphy, and they said, "You're right. There are no sirens in the house." I've just learned to live with it. I live in the mountain, Blue Ridge, on dirt road and ADT contactors would not come and fix anything. One of the sensors would not connect so I couldn't put the ADT on at night. And if I talked to them, I couldn't understand whoever I was talking to. They would try to tell me how to pass it by and, that way, I could still put my alarm on. I'm 76. They told me to find a neighbor and get the neighbor to look at it. I would like to have the system working. I'm not happy.

I like the features of my ADT system. It says when it's time to change the battery on one of my sensors and then if the payment is behind. Still, the performance could be a little better. In the middle of the night, it starts beeping loudly when a smoke detector needs a battery and you can't open it up and change the battery. I've got to go through a whole process where I have to shut down the system. I had to call them to tell me it was the motion sensor that broke and it was 100 and some dollars to replace. I'm not gonna replace it and they finally shut it down. I want to just press the button on my keypad and shut the system off, change the battery, put the cap back on, and turn the system back on. You can't do that. Everything has to be that way. It's hard. Getting somebody to help me change the battery is a long drawn-out process.
Getting in contact with an actual person is not that hard. But it's like they get frustrated and then they say, "Okay. Well, we can call a tech for you." I don't want a tech. I wanna replace the battery. I don't wanna wake up in the middle of the night with this beeping and then have to deal with the beeping, the resetting, and the test setting all night long. One time, I was supposed to shut down the system to replace the battery, and they shut down the wrong one. I gave in and said, "Send the tech." The tech came and he said, "Well, your problem is when they shut it down, they shut down the wrong sensor." Overall, I don't want to complain about the company because they have been helpful, but that battery thing is a pain in my rear end.
Also, I can't get ahold of the automatic billing payment thing. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but I tried to go to the website on my phone and it goes to a blank screen. I have reached out and talked to somebody, and that was a pleasant experience. I would tell others to give ADT a shot. They're a big company. I like their equipment. It's easy to operate.

I guess that's the best they can do but they really need to make it a little bit more appealing to your household. It's big enough for me to be distasteful. I would like to have a keyless lock on my front door, but it would add more to my bill, and I didn't want to do that.

ADT didn't give me all the details. I found out information that was not given to me at the time when I signed up. They told me I had two years to cancel the contract. But now, it seems to be five years. There were a lot of hidden details that were not given to me. The service is not what they disclosed at the time of when I signed up. Everything was wonderful, but now it’s not the best company for my needs. They quoted me one price, and now I get two different charges every month on my bill. It's really very stressful.
They're not monitoring anything because the system hasn't worked for months. Everything has a charge. Someone has to come in and reset the alarm system because I had a contractor that removed one of the devices from one of the windows downstairs in the basement. They have to come and reinstall it, and there is a charge for that. But no one has bothered to come and check. No one called me. I tried to set up another appointment and they tried to walk me through over the phone, but it's very complicated. You stay on the phone for over 30 minutes.

When I first ordered my system, it went wrong from day one. I specified exactly where I wanted the sensors and what I wanted covered when I ordered the system. The guy who came out the first time didn't bring any of this stuff. He told me that was not what I needed and then told me what I needed. He said, "Oh, this is what I have on me. This is what was supposed to be installed." But I told him that was not what was supposed to be installed. I never asked for cameras inside of my home. There were dead spots. The doors and windows weren't covered. So, I told him, "No."
ADT came back a week later. They started doing the system the way I requested to have for all the windows and the doors. I don't need people inside my home surveillance. That was never requested. There are still dead spots. Upon looking through all of the windows, I still have windows that are not sensored like they were supposed to. I've called ADT several times about that. In the yard, there's one camera. But there's supposed to be a second camera that was never installed. I've asked them to show me the breakdown of the bill where those things weren't charged, but I have not received that. All I got was a bill that said, "ADT system installation," and the total, but it did not give a specific breakdown of exactly how many cameras or equipment. I never got what I paid for. I've called several times. I've complained about it to the point where it was nothing. It was like once they had my signature and my money, it was whatever they wanted to do.
I reached out to ADT again recently to inquire because I heard that they had some new technology and I also asked them if they buy back the equipment. I've never expressed my problems with the system and I can't hear the doorbell. The camera at the door is always going out. I've constantly complained about the system and I've been dissatisfied from day one. I want ADT to come and uninstall it because it's trash. It does nothing. It doesn't serve my purpose. On the side of my house where there's a whole other door, the camera was never installed there. But I was told, "Oh, both of your cameras in the back are installed. All your doors and windows are secure." So, when I signed, I was under the belief that they did what they were contracted to do, but they didn't and it's been a problem since then.

I feel like I'm stuck because the contract with ADT is over, but the cameras are there. The camera backup does not happen. Also, their cost keeps on increasing higher every single time. So the first opportunity I get, I will get rid of ADT. I got them in 2017 when I bought my house. They came in and, in my initial package, they did not give me any offer. I almost paid a hefty amount, somewhere around 2,500 for the cameras and all the things done. But overall, service-wise, it's not bad. But that service is common across every provider. ADT's customer care sucks. When you're increasing somebody's monthly bill, you have to inform them that there is an increase coming up. But I get the surprise when it gets deducted. Then when I call, they say, "Well, yeah, there was a price raise." ADT is not a very impressive thing with the cost I pay.

I'm doing Airbnb at the home the security system was installed and the first week that I was there, the alarm went off in the middle of the night. That happened three times. I would walk around the house looking for a fire and they would tell me they were sending the fire department. I would call to say to not send the fire department and that there was nothing wrong. I told them it was unacceptable. If I had clients here, I'd have to reimburse them for the night’s stay, which is $450. They sent out their best tech and he said whoever installed it did not know what they were doing. He reinstalled all the sensors and did some stuff with the control panel. But that night, at about 2:00 in the morning, the alarms went off again.
It went off eight times like that -- sometimes with people in there. On the eighth time that it happened, I had just left my home to go stay with my son and it was about 11:30 at night. I went running back to the house because the people that were staying there called me. I keyed in my code on the control panel about 20 times to finally shut it off. Then, when I was driving to my son's house again, he called me and said the police were coming to my house. I also got a call from ADT saying the fire trucks had been dispatched. The clients that were staying there called me and said the alarm was going off again. So, in the middle of the night, fire trucks came and I had a neighbor say it had to stop and that I was disrupting the entire neighborhood because those alarms are so loud and the houses are so close together. Also, I've reimbursed $450 twice. They are destroying my business but they don't seem to care about that. It has been an absolute nightmare.
We've had their tech come out five times. ADT sent their so-called best guy out and he's a really nice guy. But he said I can't use ADT with Airbnb sites because I gotta be there to control the control panel. I told him that's the other thing their sales person told me -- that I can control everything on my mobile device, which is not true. Now, I guess ADT is changing that to make it true. But I've lost all faith in them. I've since installed all battery-operated smoke detectors throughout the house and their tech took out all the ADT batteries. I use the cameras, but there are no alarms that'll go off.
They were gonna charge me 300 and some dollars but I said I wasn't paying it because they didn't live up to their part of the contract and they took off the 300 and some dollars I owe. I'm just waiting on a new bill to show up but it's been a month and a half since the guy was here and I haven't received that $75 bill. It has not even been a full year since I've had ADT and I have sent certified letters to their legal team and their customer support team but I never heard anything back.

I was contacted late October about hooking up an ADT alarm system in my house. I had ADT over 15 years ago and cut it off due to poor service, false alarms, and never getting techs out to work on the equipment so I told them I was not interested. But the operator assured me that things have changed and that it's 10 times better. I explained to her at that time they did a charge off 13 years ago and she talked to her supervisor and they got the charge off removed. They were gonna reestablish the service and put in a new system. After three hours, I finally gave in.
I got it installed on the last week of October and on the first week of December, I had a false alarm. I called ADT and it took two weeks for them to come out and service it. Then, on the week of Christmas, I had another false alarm. I called and they refused to come out and service it because they said it was a low battery. They just installed this, but they did not check the old system. They said they were not coming out to service unless I paid a $200 service fee.
I got a call on the first week of January that I have a balance due from 13 years ago. I said that was waived by the supervisor. Fast forward to now, I get a phone call from them at least three times a week and multiple times during that day and the same thing happens. And when I get a phone call, I get transferred multiple times so I have to start over and tell the next operator the same thing I've already told the other operator. I get transferred from every department under the moon and I still get the same poor customer service. Then, someone follows up the next day saying they need to collect the past due balance. They cannot go back and reactivate an old charge off. I've told them to come get this system out of my house and it's still in the house.

ADT has been responsive when I've had problems. If I have a false alarm, I know that they're gonna contact me or they're gonna follow through on whatever needs to be done. We've had to upgrade through the years and the last time we upgraded was when we were going to the wireless system. We have an adobe home with very thick walls and we needed an extender. Initially, the techs were not aware of that so they had to come back and fix that. They were excellent at pointing out what we needed. We got the Home Nest through Google and we bought it through ADT and the reps explained all the pros and cons. The techs set it up and it's working like a charm. So, it's that kind of reliability that I appreciate.
The reps take their time in explaining something. If we have an alarm that’s going off or it’s not working quite right, going through the website is not always practical. And if I have to call in, they walk me through the steps to get it so nobody has to come out. So, I appreciate the versatility of the type of customer service that ADT is offering. It's not one size fits all. I'm like everybody else and I wish the price was a little bit less. ADT has had a hard time adjusting my billing. Every three months, I do an electronic transfer and there's a late charge that's being posted to me. So, they have to take off either $2 or $3 almost every quarter. And it's frustrating. This has been going on for several years now and no one ever knows where this charge comes up or why it's even posted this way. But ADT always refunds my money. It's just bizarre.
We took the plan that ADT had with the equipment that was upgraded and extended when we went to the wireless system. It was a very nice plan of being able to do several years without any interest. But I'm not sure if it's related to that. The last time I spoke to one of the agents, she thought that this crazy charge that I've been seeing is not going to be posted now that I'm just paying for the typical maintenance service charge. That's the one complaint I have because it's beyond me that no one can figure this out. It’s very frustrating.
I have to make the call and it's a waste of ADT’s staff's time to chase after this. And I feel bad because it's only $3. But that can add to $36 a year and if this happens to multiple customers, that's a little bit of a gravy boat for ADT. I look at it from a very broad perspective. I can afford this but the woman next door may not be able to if she's even aware of it. It's a charge that should not be there because you can't have a late charge if it's an EFT payment because they just get it electronically transferred on the date that it's due.
I lost my 35-year companion this past year so I had to change a lot of the business stuff. I had to call ADT because the app was under his email and I wanted everything changed. The reps were extremely helpful, very empathetic and kind. In a matter of 10 to 15 minutes, everything was good to go. People are compassionate at ADT. I've never had a situation where somebody sounded impatient or frustrated. We’re older and we weren’t born with all the electronics stuff but ADT's people have always been extremely helpful.

I had a technician in my yard for over an hour arguing with me that I had to pay him on demand and this person on the phone told me I didn't have to. I thought that was very unprofessional that I was arguing with a supervisor on the phone and a supervisor in my driveway, both of them were telling me two separate things. That's very bad business no matter what something is. I hate ADT. I need them because there's no one else in my area. But the minute I can get out of this contract, I'm leaving ADT.

I'm very pleased with the features of ADT. The sales rep I worked with was also very professional.
Thank you for the positive review and feedback!

I'm happy with ADT right now. It's very good. However, we have one problem with the smoke alarm, which was put by ADT. We already changed the battery. But still, we get some messages all the time, "Check your system."
Thank you for the positive review and feedback!

I'm satisfied with ADT. I've had it for six years now. I've only had somebody come out once and it was a good experience. They're a good company.
Thank you for the positive review and feedback!

I've been using ADT for 30 years now. Every time I have an issue and I call, somebody helps me. It's more difficult now with the call center, but they still put you through. The reps are very good, too. It's expensive. But it's better than not having it. With this new wireless system, no one can cut your phone line connection. It's better from that standpoint. If somebody wants to break in, they're just gonna break in.

Signing up with ADT was easy. It took less than 10 minutes on my phone. I like the cameras. I have the Google Nest camera and the drive-through camera. They're both 1080p, 60 frames per second. I could program the names into the camera for people who usually walk by my house or those who come inside. It also functions exactly how I thought it would and it runs smoothly. It gives you peace of mind knowing that your house is safe when you're not at home and that you can monitor what actions are going on outside of your house. It also gives you peace of mind knowing that you have a backup in case something bad were to happen, like a home invasion or someone taking your mail, you have proof that it happened.

ADT came and put a new keypad in, and they were good. However, their customer support is not very good. I can't get anybody out to work on my system when I have trouble with it. The nearest branch is in Idaho.

ADT has a good security plan, and they have done a good job. However, they did a lousy job repairing my system and I got into a big dispute with them that they refused to resolve. They are very difficult to communicate with. They send emails that I can't respond to, and they ignore letters that I send to them. I try in as many ways as I can to find someone who's responsive in trying to solve problems. I finally found someone who, because of her persistence, solved it after about three months and she said she had to argue through a whole hierarchy of people who were just ignorant about what they were doing.
I have two systems. I have a system in place in one locale. It's got a communication problem that's difficult for me to get someone to help fix. The other system, I canceled it because I didn't need it. It wasn't the fault of ADT in that, and I still have ADT even though they are seriously flawed. Their billing often got confused and became a source of some frustration. I like to get a paper bill, but they would tell me that the paper bill is wrong and I could only rely on the online bill, which is a crazy thing. Overall, they've got a good system that if it works well and with better communications, then they're fine.

ADT is very good and reliable. When we had a battery that quit working, we dealt with their reps and they were very good as well.

I've been satisfied with the service I've been receiving. When the alarm goes off, everything happens the way it's supposed to and the alarms have been working the way they're supposed to. I've added an outside camera and updated the WiFi connections. The tech came, put them in quickly, and cleaned up what he had to clean up satisfactorily.

I've got pros and cons about ADT's customer service. Sometimes it's good, but sometimes not at all. On occasion, I called 'cause something wasn't working properly, and they'd send a technician out. They wanted to charge me a $59 fee just for coming out, and I didn't like that. I never paid it, and they never took care of my issue. Another time, they sent me a text or email that I was eligible for an upgrade. A young man came out and told me the equipment I had was what they were gonna try to upgrade me to. That was confusing to me.

ADT charges people for everything. When I was trying to get one of the alarms down, it was up too high and I couldn't figure out how to take it down. ADT had to come out and do it and they charged me to do that. I didn't like that. I also don't like the camera part because it's on the door and I have to charge it up and take it off. I haven't done the one that's in the front. I did the one in the back because I can't get to the one in the front. Other than that, ADT is okay. I'm paying $74 for it now, but the cost a living for everything is high.
