    ADT is the greatest. We've been with them for about eight years, and I wouldn't trade them for anything. I'm very happy with the price as well. However, the system is a little older. I would like to renew, but the cost of renewing is $658. I would love to go and change to a Ring camera or some type of outside surveillance. But the functionality of the system is great. We also have a sensor that we put up that doesn't detect the cats, but if something like a window would break, that will go off. Having ADT, our sense of security is much better. We had a window that was open and the screen blew out. The alarm went off, and the police responded. It was awesome. We also had an emergency, and they responded to the police. When it was time to change the battery in the mounted unit on the wall, they helped walk me through it. However, it wasn't working, so they sent someone out, and he showed me how to take care of it. He was very informative.

    ADT was popular and I went with it, and the reps have been accommodating. They always respond and assist me in walking through my difficulties. The young lady I spoke to a couple of calls back walked me through and was very patient, as I didn't understand some of the things that she was saying. I don't like AI, but everybody's into it. When I call because I want information on technology, consumer goods, or something else, I want to talk to the person who has that information. I don't want to be connected with a link. Other than AI, which is with everything, they've been faithful and very helpful. In terms of security, I like being able to see my back and front. If I hear a noise, I can sign in and see what it is. I’ve had ADT for 10 years and I'm all paid off with my cameras. But if I had a choice at that time, I might have considered the doorbell camera. I plan to stay with ADT. I'm not looking for anything different.

    If I could put less stars I would. I don't even know how this company is still in business and how its rated so high. It has been a nightmare since day one. First the salesperson that came into our house scammed us and lied about the service we're getting, and even though my husband and I specifically asked about this being a contract, she said absolutely not and that we can cancel anytime. well... 6 months later, of hell, messed up sensors, bad quality installation we finally decided to cancel... yes, it was a contract. A THREE YEAR CONTRACT that she locked us in without our consent. And to make it worse, we contacted customer service, who btw, are terrible and everyone is clueless and hold times are so long, they refused to cancel us saying its in the "thin print".

    Fast forward two and half years with a completely pointless bill that did nothing but add annoying maintenance, we moved and contacted them to cancel, and PAYOUT what was left of our contract cash, they took the rest of the amount $400 which fulfilled the contract. This was June 2025, we are in June 2026 and they are STILL charging us. NO ACCOUNT, NO SERVICE, JUST REOCCURING MONTHLY BILL. We have spent an immense amount of time and energy trying to cancel but everyone is transferring us to the next, telling us we're looking into it, promising call backs that never got returned and here we are, a year later and still on hold. DO NOT SIGN UP.. DO NOT USE ADT.. BIG COMPANY AND BIG SCAM.. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, UNKNOWLEDGEABLE EMPLOYEES and JUST ONE BIG MESS.

    As a once loyal customer of ADT, I am really disappointed in ADT. First serious issue with ADT which they admitted it was their fault later down the road, I moved locations for military obligations like I usually do and the ADT rep terminated my services vs transferring my services which caused me to pay for my equipment and remaining balance of the contract. I disputed it but by time it got escalated to corporate it was sent to collections without any acknowledgement. Every conversation I had with a different rep was different.

    The last conversation was I was right I didn't owe anything because the services should have been transferred by that time it hit my credit...Next issue, I cancel my services and the next day $800 was withdrawn out of my account, no bill explaining how that amount came about no warning saying "hey expect money to be drawn out of your account " nothing but waking up seeing $800 withdrawn from my account. The last rep told me I would be getting a bill to explain what I owe, so I asked why I couldn't get a bill explaining where you get the amount of $800 he preceded to pull a calculator over the phone lol....terrible.

    DO NOT SIGN an ADT CONTRACT!!! It's a trap. It was a frustrating experience to be a ADT customer for a number of reasons:

    - Countless false alarms at night when the system is not even armed due to low batteries or some mysterious environmental triggers and ADT has never provided any solution to prevent this. Good luck going to work and being productive after a night like that!

    - Numerous fraudulent charges, which got resolved upon escalation but you have to catch the fraud and then waste your time on the phone trying to dispute.

    BUT THE REAL NIGHTMARE BEGAN WHEN I TRIED TO CANCEL THE SERVICE. There are no cancelation instruction if you didn't purchase the service online. ADT agents give conflicting and misleading information or outright refuse to help or just ignore you and stop responding. ADT account management team that handles cancelations is unreachable.

    Upon receiving my written notice of cancelation by mail, ADT refused to process it by imposing additional (and virtually impossible) condition never stated in the contract. For instance, ADT refused to process my written cancelation notice unless I call 800-238-2727, etx 6 EXACTLY 30 days before my contract expires. Guess what, I have already spent numerous hours calling that number before seeking help with the cancelation process and I have never, not never!, been able to reach a human. What this means is that even if you comply with the contract and submit your written notification on time, ADT will impose extraneous and impossible conditions to make it impossible for you to cancel. Do your research, there is a lot of info on reddit about how this company scams people. I wish I did my research when getting into a contract with this fraudulent company.

    ADT's service has been mediocre and I wouldn't call it top shelf. For as long as I've been with them, I don't hear anything from them. I had a few issues that I called them out on, but it’s like I really don't exist to them. I want to upgrade my system and have some of the best services, like cameras around the house. I can afford it, but no one has reached out to me to try to even sell me anything like that. I just pay them a bill every month, but the service after the sale is not there.

    At the end of the day, I just have basic alarm and the biggest benefit is having some sort of sense of security. In case someone breaks in, the alarm will set itself off, and someone will be notified. Also, when I had an emergency, their response was fairly timely, overall. But in the past, we had an issue and when my wife tried to work with them, she had to jump through a few hoops and loops to get the way she was going. All in all, I wouldn't recommend anyone to ADT and I’d advise friends and family members to search for something that's a little more competitive and upgraded.

    ADT is part of our HOA package here in Retreat and because I'm part of the HOA, I’m not paying much other than just for the camera part. So, it's very reasonable for us. I like what I’m paying. If I am not in the HOA, I would still consider ADT. They have done what they said they would do. They provide security for alarms. I've had a couple of extra cameras added and one of the cameras went out. The techs came out and replaced it a couple of weeks ago. Other than that, the equipment is easy to use and we haven't had any false alarms. When I lived in Illinois, my neighbor had ADT, and he had a lot of false alarms, and that was not a happy experience. But it’s not so much ADT. It’s more the problems of the house.

    I use the app very frequently and it does the things it's supposed to do. When I have to get in touch with ADT, it just takes a phone call and a little bit of wait time. But other than that, it’s not a problem. I would recommend others to adopt ADT if it’s available to them. I have peace of mind that we’ve got the protection for fire and different kinds of things that work.

    I had some carbon monoxide alarms and the panel was showing that they were tripping. I called the company I had before and told them I don't have a fire but I need to have somebody come out and take a look at this. Three weeks later, they finally sent somebody out and he didn't know what he was doing. I told him to leave. And I switched back to ADT. I was their customer for almost 30 years before that. I just had the system reinstalled about a month and a half ago and the installation process was super excellent. They did a great job. Price-wise, ADT is cheaper than the other one, and it was lower than what I had been paying the year before.

    We were out on vacation and I notified ADT that we would be gone. The house was tripped and they notified the police department immediately and our second responder. They got down here. For whatever reason, the door didn't latch when we left. But it’s been taken care of. People should go to ADT and not to any of the other companies.

    ADT seems to be very good in alerting potential issues. The system lets you know when there's problem, and that's helpful. The technology seems to be very good. But the downside is, when there is an issue and I have to call ADT, I am bombarded with advertisements. It's a very stressful situation and the last thing we want to hear is advertisements for more stuff. They cut out the ads at the least appropriate time to try and sell something. They could have music to take up time while the customer is waiting.

    I'm trying to get the requirement to show that I have an alarm system. It somehow or another fell off my State Farm Insurance. ADT sent the certificate I requested, but my insurance company said they needed a signature on the end date at the bottom of the page. So, I’m supposed to get another letter stating that the system has been active since 2011. But I haven’t had any issues with ADT. My parents passed away and I’m living in the house now, and I still use ADT. I would accidentally open the door and forget I had the alarm on, and ADT would call and confirm that I was okay.

    I learned that you can have the system set up to call your person of contact. When I go out of town, I can have it call my cousin or somebody local first or second. You can always designate that, or have it call the police first. When I go out of town, I usually say, "Call the police first." If I'm in town, I want them to call me first. But usually, it's me setting the alarm off. When I walk outside, I forget I have it on. One time, I had to get a new battery and the tech support walked me through how to install it. So, both tech support and customer service were both helpful. And the price is reasonable. The only thing is I need a new key fob because mine’s faded. I can’t tell what was what. But I just have it memorized.

    I am incredibly frustrated with ADT's cancellation process. I have been a loyal customer for 8 years and am completely out of contract. Despite this, I have been trying to cancel my service for over a month. First, I was told I could not cancel over chat or during my initial phone call. Instead, I was forced to schedule a phone appointment a week later just to speak with someone who could process it. During that scheduled call, I was informed that I have to wait another 30 days for the cancellation to take effect, meaning I am being charged for a service I do not want, especially after a service tech has been supposed to come out for over 2 months because my system has not been working properly. Making customers jump through hoops and enforcing a 30-day waiting period on a month-to-month, 8-year loyal customer is unacceptable. ADT makes it intentionally difficult to leave, and I cannot recommend a company that treats long-term customers this way.

I got a long walkway up to my door and with the camera, I could see who's coming up to my doorbell, and I can see before they get here. And then, I can see if they park in front of my house and they're getting ready to come up to my door. ADT’s service is good and I have never had to call to complain.

We also want to see if we can get some cameras to upgrade that system because it would be a whole lot more beneficial to us if we had cameras with it.

    My parents had ADT and then I bought the house from them, and they've been gone for 15 years. So, it’s been a long time. We’ve probably had them or some affiliate ever since we had an alarm system, and the reliability and the breadth of service made us stay. I had gone away, and instead of turning the thermostat down, I turned it off by mistake. I got a call from them and I let my cousin in so I could turn the thermostat back. I'm up north and it’s either early in the spring or late in the fall when it would get down to freezing. I don't have a comprehensive system yet because I finally got rid of my flip phone. But now, I can put everything on my Android.

    I've had ADT for a long time and they've always worked perfectly. I had a different alarm company and had several false alarms due to their poor equipment. So ADT, of course, is a big name, and I decided to go with them, and I haven't had any false alarms. We just got the newer technology, though. And the control panel is not as good as the old one. It's not as simple. It doesn't work. The tactile buttons on it are not as sensitive or work as well. We run into some issues with that. But as far as my control, they work fine.

    I haven't had problems with ADT. There's just one thing I was a bit concerned about. When the guy came out here the last time, he conflicted my phone with the security. And all my phone lines were working, but when he left, I only got one line that worked. I was a bit concerned about that. He put it on a Cox cable because I got digital phone service. I wasn't getting a signal, so he had to put in another box. Once he got the thing connected up, I only got one line working. It's the one where he connects everything, which is in my office, but all the other lines in the house are not working.

    I brought that to his attention, because when he was out here, he had a little problem, he had to call somebody twice, and he finally got it working. He told me I had to see my cable company that had the digital phone. That was odd, but I wouldn't argue with the guy. However, I didn't appreciate that part. That pushed me to have another bill. That's the only problem I have with ADT all these years. I used to get a call saying the system wasn't connecting, but I don't get those calls anymore. So, I assume it's working. My concern was to make sure the alarm was working. I had no idea that the phone would be down.

It's a 5G. It's just the cameras themselves. I wish they had cameras like Ring, where you could talk to people, but they don't. They need to upgrade their cameras and their system. If Ring can do it, why can't ADT? But I like that I can monitor and my cameras record. And crooks don't care. They still will come up on your porch and steal, even though they know they're on camera. And they look right up at the camera. I have given the police a number of my videos, and the police used one of my videos to catch a criminal.

    I’ve been here for three plus years, but I had an ADT account when I was living in Hawaii for 20 years. When I came here, there was some other security system in the house but I didn’t know anything about it, and there wasn’t anything on any of the doors or glass breaks. So I called ADT and had them move my account. ADT is almost all electronic. I don’t turn the system on if I’m going to the grocery store but I turn it on if I’m going to be gone for a couple of days or if I’m going out overnight or if I’m gonna be late. If you want a sign, you just push the button on the app. Everything is there. I haven't had to update anything, and everything seems to work. I've been very happy with ADT.

    I used it more in Hawaii because there were a lot of condos right down below where the single-family homes were, and there were people who wandered up. Also, there had been multiple break-ins. Someone broke in my friend’s house while everyone was there and they got them out of there and called the police. But my house never had a break-in because I had ADT. I never even had an issue. But I turned it on a lot more. Here, it’s a very quiet neighborhood. There was a shooting on the MSU campus a couple of years ago, and they didn't know where the guy was. I'm not very far from the MSU campus, so I had the alarm on. As soon as I heard that, I ran and got my phone, pushed the button. I'm by myself, except for the two dogs and the ADT system makes me feel more secure. The police here even have a site where you can register if you have cameras and alarms. So, if something is going on, they know where to go.

    I’m happy because nothing has happened. The system doesn’t act up. I had one instance after I first installed it where one of the glass break things by the door kept saying low battery. I put a new battery in it, and two seconds later it was low battery again. So, ADT sent a new one and I changed it out. I told them I had already gone through three batteries in three weeks and that something had to be wrong because these normally last several years. They told me to just put in a new battery, but I insisted there was an issue. It turned out to be a defective unit. They mailed me a replacement and asked if I could install it myself, which I could as long as I had the instructions, since it was just a simple screw-on, screw-off replacement. I did it, and everything’s been fine ever since. The only other thing was that the sign broke during a windstorm. It got blown around, hit a rock in my yard, and smashed into pieces. Other than that, I’m good.

    2 1/2 years ago, I signed a contract with ADT to install cameras and to monitor my home. The quote on the phone was approximately $2,000. I spoke with several ADT employees who gave me various quotes for the same work and equipment. When the installer came to our house, he quoted $5,000, telling me they never get it right at ADT. I have had issues with the cameras and service is non-responsive. I was told there is no charge for service since it is included in the monthly charge of approximately $80.

    When I call to report trouble with my cameras, they tell me “get up on a ladder” to see if the cables are connected to the cameras at the junction in my garage.” The problem is the cables are high above, about 12 feet high. Whenever a service tech has come to my house they walk around, ask me questions, and either tell me they cannot fix it or, they want to sell me something. They receive a commission. I have had aggravation for 2 1.2 years without consistent service. There is more to this if someone contacts me.

    Have been a customer of ADT for 14 years. This past few weeks have been a nightmare in dealing with them. My 12 year old ADT smoke detector needed replacing. The loyalty department was to arrange for a technician to come out and replace it free of charge. The day of appointment the technician called on his way to my address to say there are going to be a charges for the visit and for the new smoke detector. When I told him that the Loyalty department had arranged for the visit to be free of charge, he stated there was nothing notated in my account stating that and also the smoke detectors were backordered, so he did not have one for a replacement. This is the day of the appointment that this occurred. So we cancelled the visit before he came to site and I was to call ADT Loyalty department to reschedule.

    After talking to ADT loyalty department about this incident, they said they would get me rescheduled when they found out what happened and call me back. I never received a return call. It is one week later and I still have not received a call. I looked at my ADT account online and saw that they were charging me $384 for a visit that never occurred. I called to get it straightened out and was told charges would be reversed today and they would call me back when it was done. This company has become extremely disorganized and I have lost confidence that if something does happen and my alarm would go off, there may be a lack of response from them. I will be cancelling my service with them and going with another company.

    I am extremely frustrated with ADT’s handling of my account cancellation. I called to cancel service on April 19, 2026, and was informed that a 30-day notice was required, making the official cancellation date May 20, 2026. Because we were selling our home, the associate also advised that the system would be powered down on May 6, 2026, so no alarms would dispatch to authorities for the new homeowners.

    Since billing is paid a month in advance, I was told we would receive a credit for the remaining 11 days after cancellation. We have received no credit. Worse, since May 6, we have had TWO emergency dispatch calls from ADT triggered by the new owners of the home, proving the account and monitoring service were never properly shut down.

    We have made at least five separate phone calls to ADT. Every representative has confirmed the account notes clearly show the April 19 cancellation request, yet no one can explain why the account is still active. Despite repeated requests, I have also never been allowed to speak with a manager. This has been an unacceptable experience involving billing errors, failure to process cancellation, and repeated false dispatches tied to a property we no longer own. I am now filing a formal BBB complaint due to ADT’s failure to resolve this matter.

Then when I want to speak to a live person, it takes a lot of effort to get through the AI voice into a live person. I'm successful after putting in effort. The service was promised to me to be free of charge after I asked to speak with the supervisor. The fire alarm wasn't working properly, vis-a-vis the panel. With their live person's instruction, who was very good, very thorough, very professional, she walked me through what to do to replace the battery in the existing fire alarm. I did that. I had a problem with the panel and she couldn't clear it. I couldn't clear it. So, I needed a serviceman to come to my home. I made the appointment only to get a call that said, "Hey, the serviceperson called in sick." I asked if I could have it the next day, and I had it the next day.

    The serviceperson came and replaced the whole fire alarm, did a thorough job, cleared the panel, and left. Then I saw on my account I'm being charged for it. So, I called them, spoke with the representative, finally, getting through the AI voice once again, and the representative said, "Oh, yes. I see here." When I spoke with the representative, I made sure that the representative put on my account that the supervisor agreed to give me free of charge for the service call, but I was charged anyway.

    ADT monitored our CA home for a decade. When we moved to TN, I called to cancel the service and the agent convinced me to accept their FREE ADT equipment for our new home (many lies in that conversation). This agent never told me she could not cancel our CA service, and transfer the call to the right department. Instead she let me think we canceled and pushed the DIY equipment. I just received a letter (forwarded from CA home) that we need to renew our alarm permit. I called the number to remind ADT that we no longer have an account and was told that it was NEVER cancelled and we had been charged for the last 5 months.

    I never saw this because my husband has been ill, and in the hospital a lot, so I didn’t see it on the bank account he used. ADT refused to refund the money, and I was informed that because I called on the 27th, and not the day before, I would also be paying for June, for a house we hadn’t lived in for six months. When they say, ”We are sorry about this but there is nothing we can do as those are the rules,” know that they are lying. They do not care that this is criminal and it’s not about customers - only about how much money they can get from us.

    First I would like to say when setting up service the phone conversation I thought went great. The guy I spoke to on the phone said I can get cameras only on the outside of a rental property, quoted me a price, I agreed, set up an appointment. They came out, I was excited. I live in another city. I came and this where it got frustrating. The technician Anthony ** told me that I could not just get cameras only. He told me I had to get an security system. This was a rental property. After going back and forth we agreed to put the security system in the shed in order to get the cameras. I signed the contract and he told me that he will come back and do the cameras when I get the internet on. I didn't think anything about it and he did not tell me that I would have to have another contract for the cameras since I did not get everything done in that one visit until I called back to get the appointment for the cameras.

    When I called Terrence ** informed me that I did not have to have a security system to get cameras that I could only get cameras and that I will have to sign a whole new contract for cameras in that the price would change and it would be a lot more. After going back and forth with them I agreed to cancel the whole thing. Terrance confirmed with me he spoke to his supervisor and said he put in the order for cancellation, I will receive a email.

    The next day I still never received an email so I called back to the cancellation department, spoke to a lady, I did not get her name. She informed me that if I wish to cancel there is a cancellation fee. Mind you I have not had this service for one week, cancellation fee was almost $2,000 for security system that I did not ask for. I only wanted cameras only. ADT is a rip off. Their technicians and customer service rear people in to get them to sign contracts and take their money off of lies. Do not waste your money on their lies.

    I have been dealing with ongoing issues with ADT since November 2025. I already had one account with ADT in another state, so I was excited to open a second account. Unfortunately, my experience has been extremely frustrating and disappointing. Since starting service, I have had repeated problems with my lock system and overall functionality of the equipment. I have contacted ADT every month trying to resolve these issues, but nothing has been consistently fixed. Each representative gives me different information, and there has been no clear communication or permanent resolution.

    I was originally told that my doorbell camera would be able to unlock my door, which turned out to be false. I was also told at one point that my service could be canceled without penalty because of all the unresolved issues, but later I was given different information. I continue to receive conflicting explanations from different employees, which has caused unnecessary stress and confusion.

    My monthly bill is around $60, yet I cannot properly use the equipment because it does not work correctly while being charged $102.00. I even offered to pay approximately $400 for the equipment just to end the situation and move on, but I still continue to get the runaround instead of a clear resolution. ADT has repeatedly offered account credits, but credits are not solving the problem. I simply want this matter resolved fairly. After months of unsuccessful troubleshooting and inconsistent communication, I no longer have confidence in the service or support being provided. I believe it is unfair for a company of this size to continue handling a customer situation this way for so long without accountability or a proper resolution. I am requesting that ADT allow me to cancel my contract without penalty.

They also don’t communicate well between services and departments so I was double charged for services for months and had to call twice for them to refund me and correctly update their systems. Additionally when a service tech told me to remove a sensor from the wall to verify the back cover was faulty their suggested solution was to “tape it or replace it for $20-$140”. IT HAD ALREADY RIPPED OFF MY DRYWALL MIND YOU. RIDICULOUS, TIME CONSUMING, not user friendly.

    Absolutely horrible customer service. I was transferred back and forth between accounts and billing multiple times just trying to cancel my service, and no one seemed able or willing to help. Every time I explained the issue, they transferred me to someone else who tried to “confirm” what the previous representative supposedly did — only to tell me nothing had actually been changed.

    I was originally told my contract ended on May 1, so I called that day to cancel. Then another representative told me I couldn’t cancel until May 7. I called back anyway on May 4 and canceled the service. I was told everything was taken care of and the account was canceled. Later, I tried to make a payment and somehow it was reversed. I called again on May 26 and was transferred at least 3 more times between departments. I asked for a manager or supervisor and was told they would just “tell me the same thing.” After spending over 45 minutes on the phone, absolutely nothing was resolved. This is completely ridiculous and one of the worst customer service experiences I’ve ever had. NEVER NEVER get ADT!

    I switched from Vivint to ADT hoping to upgrade our home security system, but unfortunately my experience with ADT in the Media, PA area was far worse. My husband initially contacted ADT, provided details about our home, and scheduled a visit to confirm the recommended system would meet our needs. The representative, who also served as the installer, assured us the quoted system would work, so we agreed to move forward at a cost of $1,300. Installation took about four hours, but within three hours of completion, several sensors began reporting low or drained batteries.

    When we contacted the installer, he could not explain the issue and advised us to call ADT for replacement batteries. That same day, I was given contact information for our assigned ADT account advisor. When I reached out to him, he informed me that the system installed was not suitable for the size of our home, that a repeater would not work in our case, and that we actually needed the IQ system, which would be more expensive. As a temporary fix, he scheduled a technician to replace the batteries.

    Within a week, ten batteries had already died or were low, and one door sensor consistently showed as open. When the technician arrived, he immediately confirmed that the wrong system had been installed, noting that it was designed for a much smaller home. He also stated that installing a repeater would not work. He recommended the IQ system and mentioned he had installed several on our street in similarly sized homes. After replacing the batteries, the same issues returned within hours.

    Attempts to resolve the situation became increasingly frustrating. Calls went unanswered, and when I finally reached my advisor via email, I was directed to ADT’s 1 800 number to escalate the issue. After being transferred multiple times and repeating my situation to many people, I eventually spoke with a representative named Keke and made it clear that the system either needed to be replaced with a system compatible for the size of my house or removed entirely.

    After several more weeks and discussions without resolution, I decided to cancel. Although ADT initially cited a three-day cancellation policy, they eventually agreed to remove the system and issue a refund. However, they refused to replace it with the IQ system, claiming it would cost thousands of dollars more. I later contacted Guardian, which also installs the IQ system. The total cost for the IQ system and installation was less than the amount I had paid ADT! The monthly fees were comparable, and the IQ system offered significantly better functionality. Overall, this experience exposed serious issues with ADT’s sales, installation, and customer service processes. I strongly caution others not to rely solely on brand recognition. I will never use ADT again.

    ADT is better than the first company we had when we built our house. When my wife and I travel, we can check on the house. We can use the app and see if there’s anything. When we have somebody like a dog walker coming into the house, we can see that they’ve been there. The alarm is paused. It gives us some ease of mind. I was just down for three weeks, though and I didn’t have that because I had to set a test mode for the three weeks till ADT fixed it. All I could see was a test mode. When I was in San Diego, which was five hours from here, I couldn’t check the alarm. I couldn’t let the dog walker in. It was really weird. But my parents have the same system and are happy with it. They just got a brand-new home, and wanted a new alarm company, so they went with ADT based on our recommendations.

    The ADT system is still not quite perfect. Recently, we needed a battery and they didn't have on record that we had this element, but we had these five glass breaks. They had to send someone to our house for 160 bucks. I could have gotten the batteries online and did it myself. So, it was frustrating. They’re all about the money and not the service. We've had some technical issues that they took several weeks to solve. And by the time they solved them, the credit they give back isn't worth it. They give you a credit for monthly service, but it's 10 days instead of two weeks, or a whole month.

    The customer service is getting worse because ADT has changed it so you talk to an AI agent who screws up everything. They seem to interpret the answers wrong, and ADT is not doing anything. I’d like a number you can call to get support. It’s almost half an hour before you can talk to somebody, and by then you have to start over the conversation because they don’t transfer the AI conversation to the real live agent. And if the app is on your phone and you’re on this AI agent, once you get a call, it ends the AI agent and you have to start the conversation all over again. There’s no app to start. It’s like a web page, but it’s only for that session. I had it twice. I got calls and I couldn’t even accept them. I had to deny it and I lost the AI interface sp I had to start all over.

Apparently they said it wasn’t someone from their team, but I genuinely don’t know who else would have known ADT had just been at my house setting up my security system.

    What makes this even more concerning is that whoever it is knows where my cameras are placed, what they show, and how to access turning them on and off. Instead of feeling safer, I now feel less safe in my own home. I want to make it clear again that the actual technician who installed everything was professional, friendly, and made me feel comfortable, which is why this situation is so confusing. But regardless, no woman should feel harassed or unsafe after getting protection for her home. I truly hope this gets taken seriously and handled appropriately.

    Zero stars. I recently switched internet providers. I called ADT to ask if a technician can reinstall/ reconnect my Nest doorbell camera, because I'm physically unable to. I was quoted $59 fee, plus $150 every half hour, in addition to some other fees. I had no choice but to agree, because I need my doorbell camera. Needless to say, I will be looking for a new home security service.

    I regret going with ADT. I'm not happy with my service. They started out okay, then it was horrible. I went with them for reputation, and through the signs in people's yards. But it's not what I expected. The installation was terrible. I made several complaints. We've had them out to the house twice, and they keep saying it’s something to do with Wi-Fi. We've had the Wi-Fi people come out several times, and they said, "No, it's the cameras.” Batteries are dead. Cameras still don't work.

    We've been trying to get a contractor out there, but the guy just drilled holes in our brand-new siding. He never tucked in the wires. They're still hanging out. We put a quarter million dollar renovation. They never swept our house after they were done. There's dust all over brand-new $15,000 floors. I filed a complaint. The one manager tried to make right. He sent us money to find someone to repair it. He did what he said he would do, but it's just trying to get someone out to repair it now. Also, the customer service in South Carolina is not great.

    The installer who came out said, "If there's a problem, just call me direct.” We came back, and there was a major problem, but I didn't want another installer out because I didn't know if that guy would come back out, and I don't trust him in my house. If I were to call on something, I don't trust the service I'm going to get. It's like violating my personal space, just trash my house, drill holes in my siding. They're supposed to be a cool security system, and a good one.

    The guy tried to go around the bat, so I didn't call him to get stuff scheduled. He wanted them to schedule directly with him, and I said, “We'll file a complaint.” I called the guy, he said, "I didn't have a vacuum.” I said, "You could have asked for one.” He said, "I was trying to do a good job, but--” I said, “But you drilled holes all over. You broke my siding. You drilled holes. And you have wires sticking out.” I don't know who to call to have someone come out and train me on the system. I don't know all my codes, because he put his own codes in the system, and I don't know who to even call to come out and train me on it. It's bad. We're in the process of switching companies. We don't like ADT.

    DO NOT BUY!!! This has been a nightmare. The equipment is faulty, there's hidden fees, they will not honor their contract and will weaponize the system against you. Both cameras stopped working and I've been through 11 smoke detectors. The smoke detectors would malfunction in the middle of the night and I'd have to climb a ladder and get them down, remove the batteries, and call in the morning to get a tech out to replace them. 11 TIMES! They eventually said they changed equipment providers and wanted to charge me over $100 for a service call to replace their faulty equipment that was supposed to be replaced for free under the lifetime warranty. Since it was a breach of contract I terminated it. The rep was belligerent and yelling, and repeatedly told me he'd brick my system. A system I already paid for and was told that I now owned the equipment and could take with me should I move.

    This morning when my husband tried to leave for work he couldn't disarm the panel, it was functional but it wouldn't allow him to disarm, holding us hostage in our own house. He had to leave for work which set the alarm off. I ended up taking the panel off the wall and putting it in a closet because ADT made sure there was no way to turn it off and no way to log into the system.

    I got this system because I had a stalker, but ADT has been far worse. I was told I "qualified" for some of the equipment to be free and was then charged anyway. Then even after completely paying for the equipment and being told I owned it and it belonged to me, ADT bricked it by making it impossible to turn off the alarm because I didn't wish to continue the monitoring service, since they were in breach of contract. This has been a huge waste of time, money, and my sanity. All this in just a little over two years. After posting this review I'll be looking for any class action lawsuits I can join against ADT.

I've had no break-ins and when I've needed their help to update the equipment, they always responded. They just did what they needed to do. They updated my system and it's been fine since then. I set the alarm at night, and I turn it off in the morning. I had a motion detector system for a while, but that didn't work because it was too sensitive. So, we had to have that taken out.

So when the installer came I asked about that and he explained it. He also explained that the phone reps were trained the old way, the no money down and they are just used to that. The in person installer/sales rep was very knowledgeable and that part went great. I would refer him to set up anyone’s system. The installer listened to what I wanted then if it was too costly, found way to still get what I wanted done but a less costly way to do it. He was great.

    I've been pleased with ADT. It's just that until Ian came out here, nobody explained anything. They came, installed, and left. In fact, I hadn't even seen a manual. Ian came down, and nobody charged me anything because I didn't want to have to pay for something like that, because there wasn't too much I needed to. But when he came down here, he stopped by, and he showed me how to use my equipment. Then he also said, "If you're still scared, you can get some window sensors.” Window sensors on the back part of the house. Also, a motion detector down the hallway. So, I'm doing a whole lot better. I really appreciate that, because I was not given that at all. No recommendations were made.

    Ian took care of all my worries, because now I know how to use it. There are some things that he showed me on the pad that are useless. I don't know if somebody needs to look into replacing obsolete material with something new, but I'm pleased now. The first installation, I couldn't get anybody out. They told me that it would cost $155 for somebody to come out. And then the lady on the line from ADT, said, "Okay. I can work it out so that it can charge you $80." I was sitting here thinking, "This is not customer service." Because I'd already bought the stuff and paid for everything. So, all I wanted was to be able to feel confident in how to work my system. Nothing at all.

    Ian was showing me some things and looking around, and he said, "Look, I would do this, this and this. Six on the back." He said, "I can put them in all over the house," but he said, “To be honest with you, on the front, it's going to be really hard for somebody to start breaking in a window on the front side of the house when you're like 15 yards from your window," and he said, "but I would do it on the back ones, because nobody can see back there." He came back another time and installed everything. And he always asked, "Is there anything else you need to know? Yes. Because I can find out." I'm happy that whoever was on the other line said, "We'll send him out for free, and we're not going to charge you." I was like, "Now, that's customer service."

    Some of my ADT signs were broken, so they sent some other ones. Then another guy said, "We'll send you those fluorescent types that light up when somebody comes.” The fire department had to come out here one night, and they knew this was the house that had called because they lit up. Somehow, they were lit, or they could shine a light, and they could see it was fluorescent of some sort. I don't know how, but they knew that they had gotten to the right thing. 'Cause I live behind 7-Eleven.

    There are all kinds of crazy people behind the buildings on my left side and then across the street. They come in doing wheelies and stuff at night. So, I really needed this. The fire department came immediately. 'Cause I told them I could see smoke, and it was gray. It didn't smell like food. The ADT alarm in my house, the batteries went dead. My two smoke detectors went off.

    I had to replace the batteries in that ADT. It was installed less than five years. I had three alarms going off. And before I could get out of the shower, I heard the fire department siren coming. They sent two trucks, blocked the street because they knew this was the house. That was a false alarm, because I couldn't get out of the shower quickly enough to turn off the ADT thing. 'Cause it was in the kitchen, and I was in the bathroom. And it's a hallway and two doors down. So, I've just been frustrated. But the fire department is coming out here to make sure that I reinstalled everything correctly.

    After Ian, it's much better, except that I didn't know I'd have to replace the batteries in that ADT alarm. The installer was very kind, but he didn't do me one favor by explaining anything, or I wouldn't have been so panicked about anything else, because I didn't know how to work it. I didn't know if I was setting my alarm okay. I've had several false alarms just because I couldn't get to it quickly, and I was scared, and I had to remember my code and all that kind of stuff.

    ADT is a terrible company to do business with. They are legal thieves with their contracts. I signed up with a third party, Envision, who did the installation and ADT handled the billing. I had a 3-year contract, which they said I couldn't break after moving one year later. So, since I had to pay out the contract, I decided to move the equipment to my new house, even though I lived in a safe community and didn't need it anymore, and never used the alarm for 2 years. I paid Envision to move the equipment so I expected the contract to expire 2 years later in May 2026.

    Now that it's here, I found out that somehow, without telling me, they extended the contract by 6 more months, and ADT/Envision tricked me into signing up for 6 more months of service which I won't use. So, I paid over $2,500 for using 1 year of ADT service. I will never use ADT again and have told everyone I know to never use them either. So ADT, you are only hurting yourself for being such a deceptive company.

    I was scammed over the phone from a customer service guy. I asked him twice what will be my total for indoor and outdoor camera system. He responded $715 dollars with a discount of $500 and something dollars. I said, "Okay, I want the service." A contractor came out to set both cameras at my residence. He didn't explain to me that I was signing a three-year contract. My assumption I'm signing my signature for ADT service. A couple of months passed, I decided to call their customer service and ask what's my full about once again. The lady said my total is an estimate of 3000.00 dollars. I couldn't believe it!!! Scam, Scam. I'm struggling paying this service every month.

    We've had ADT in a vacation home. It's been in the family. My mother initiated the service many years ago because that was what was available, and we've been pleased. The system has functioned very well. I like the camera and being able to control it remotely since it is a vacation home. We've had a few bumps along the way. Some of it is just because technology isn't perfect, and I understand.

    We've used ADT since we bought this specific house. It's been about 18 years now as a monitoring service and maintenance service on an existing alarm system. Historically, there hasn't been much contact with them. The system was pretty much bulletproof. There wasn't a lot of problems. In the course of 18 years, we called them for service four times. It was always handled promptly, whatever had worn out, because these things only last so long. The system would have been put in in 1998. Nothing broke that was concerning. It was just natural aging and wear and tear on the system. The service was always satisfactory, we got what we want, and the monitoring was always good.

    When the alarm signals did go off, it was monitored, things worked as they should. If there was a fire alarm, the fire truck would show up. The police never showed up, because we'd always get a call. We answer the phone, we provide a code to prove it’s us, and it worked exactly as we'd expect it to work. This year, 2026, we completely updated the alarm system. So, we went from 27-year-old technology to state-of-the-art stuff. We got push button to touch pads, no cameras to five video cameras, and wired contacts that occasionally deteriorate or corrode to wireless. It was control on a phone app versus limited control on a keypad. We have all the controls on the phone. We lock and unlock from our phone, but we don't unlock and unlock the door. It's important to us because we have big dogs. So, we have to balance out, keeping them in mind when putting a system in. There has to be flexibility for home dogs in our home.

    If I was going to put another alarm system in, knowing what I know now, I'd go with ADT, and I would recommend them to relatives and friends. There are people that do the home install themselves. One of the top brand names of alarm systems is ADT. If you want it to work and you want it done right with minimum hassle, you call ADT to come in. Customer service has been fine.

    As far as monitoring fees, they're not budget. They're not the low-cost provider, but they are good value for money. The cost didn't affect us because we were getting what we wanted, even though it probably cost a little more than other monitoring services. In terms of the new install, it was expensive. It was 15,000 bucks for an all singing, all dancing system with five cameras and recorders.

    We have no issues at all with them. The install team and the sales guy were first rate. We haven't had any problems since the system was installed. The cameras went in complicated but perfect. There was a couple of sloppy things, but they came out as soon as I found them and gave them a call. They were back within a couple of days and made it right immediately. You can't expect perfection, but if they fix it immediately, that's real good.

    I had a 3 year contract which ended in spring of 2025. After that it was to be a month to month basis. No new contract was created. On 04/14/2026, there was police activity on my property and the next door neighbors. The SWAT Team was on my property for at least 20 minutes. My ADT Cameras caught NOTHING. They stopped working on 03/31/2026. I called ADT on 04/18/2026 to cancel service. The representative kept pushing sales tactics and would not take NO for an answer. I finally said just cancel it, ok. I told her repeatedly to cancel it, and I disconnected. I did not want to hear anymore of her pushy sales tactics. They won't take NO for an answer and sales can be predatory like. I was tired of hearing it. She did not cancel it as I requested. Now ADT Reps act like I was in the wrong for not allowing her to continue with her pushiness.

    I called back on 04/22/26 and 04/23/2026, and they finally followed through with the cancellation, but they still want more money. They won't recognize the original cancellation date as 04/18/2026. It is difficult to cancel ADT. It is a fight to get them to realize that NO means NO. My experience is they won't cancel based on a simple request or a simple phone call. They insist you listen to their pushy sales gimmicks before they honor a cancellation request. Don't contract with this company. They are too predatory and exploitative.

    With ADT, we get phone calls. Even if I set the system off myself, there's always a phone call follow-up to make sure that it's legitimate, that I set it off, and no one else set it off. We get our email notifications, and we have the app that we can use to turn it on and turn it off. But there's always notification if we left a door open and a sensor is going off, or if we lose power. We get all those notifications. The customer service has been handled extremely well too. They're very responsive and always available if I need them. They have multiple sources online I can use. Otherwise, I can call their number.

    I would promote ADT. We started out with them so many years ago. It was just a basic system, and it evolved over time. It's very connected now and there's even accessories that we don't use. In terms of cost, I don't know what others charge, but I want the cheapest price possible. I always think the price is too expensive, no matter what I'm talking about.

    This company lies and steals from their customers. I called to cancel my services. I was bombarded with "ways to help" and pressured into keeping the service at a lower rate and they would send a technician out to inspect my devices. The technician came out and did not say anything about charges. Only that parts had to be ordered. He came back the next week with replacements and charged me $735. Why would I agree to $735 charge if I was wanting to cancel in the beginning.

    I called to dispute the charge and the account manager had me on the line for over 55 minutes negotiating for a resolution.

    I agreed to 36 months at $29.99 and the $735 refunded/waived. He noted I agreed to $150 credit and the 36 month contract. I called back immediately when my bank was charged for the money I did not agree on and was given more of a run around and that is when I was told he put the $150 credit in notes. I demanded they listen to the recording and hear me say 1000 times over that I was not paying the $735.

    ADT has a national reputation, which a lot of the local companies do not have. Also, the person that I first dealt with was named Katherine and she was excellent. She had a nice sense of humor, and she was very knowledgeable and conversational. So, I decided that this was the company for me. I have them for two years now and the phone calls that I've had with different technicians have been super. I really like the way they handle things. I'd tell my friends that ADT has the latest technology and is very responsive to any problems that we have had.

    The alarms are very good. We have nine doors and there's an alarm on each door. I can hear when people go in and out. So, it's very helpful knowing who's going in and out. I also like the cameras outside. We had a very aggressive salesman come and when she saw the cameras, she backed off immediately. So that, to me, is a good thing for us. The cameras also catch animals that go past, which we find really interesting.

Called in and told the rep what I need for my business and she said no problem, got me scheduled for installation and of course got the deposit payments. Then they send the technician out to install the product and he says no, what I ordered is not what I need to he tells me what I need and of course it cost more and he gets another deposit.

    I complain after installation and they send out a 'manager' to see my operation and he tells me I was not sold what I needed and then he gives me a proposal for different equipment and guess what, yep more money. This is wrong. They confused me, got over my head with technology and basically outsmarted me. When I call in for explanation of my billing the reps say they don't understand my issue and will send me something in writing by letter or email but they have not. The only thing they seem to be efficient with is charging my credit card. I wish I could rate them a negative rating but again it appears they just don't care. I don't know what remedies I have available but researching this. I have to believe they are treating other customers the same one.

    The customer service I've received from ADT has been above and way beyond. I've been with the company since 2017. I used to call, and the wait time was too long. I decided to chat with them online on ADT.com, and I always get amazing representatives. They work hard to reboot the system. If it doesn't work, then they’d say, “Ma'am, can we just get you an appointment, and then somebody can do a video call, and assist you?" So, that has been really amazing. In 2017, I was fine, but now, I'm bed bound. They’d say, “Are you able to go out and stand in their driveway and wave to us?” I'd say, “I'm so sorry, I can't leave my bed.” Then they do work out everything. I'm extremely happy with ADT.

If there was a problem, they always solved it right away, which there were very few problems I've had. Overall, it's been outstanding. I had cameras from different companies, but with ADT, they perform a lot better, a lot clearer, and with less problem.

    Hi everyone... I feel I need to express my thoughts of ADT security.. I am in a 5 year contract and I am 10 months into it. Last year my home was broke into.. The police said I should invest in a security system. So I did. I did no research but I chose ADT because you always hear about their service and customer service. Months into obtaining the service I moved and my service was transferred to my new residence. Forwarding to now I recently went to buy a car and was denied. Come to find out ADT sent my account to collections which caused me to be denied. My monthly payment is withdrawn every month from my account. So my account is up to date but they sent it to collections for broken contract by mistake with their admittance of doing this but they are unwilling to fix the issue they created. So if you're thinking about using this company you should look into other options. I give it 0 stars.

So, ADT swapped out the sensors on the windows and that cleared up the problem. Overall, having ADT makes me feel good about our security and we haven't had any trouble with the equipment.

    We got ADT in our second home about five years ago, and we had it in the first home a couple of years before that. We chose ADT because of its reputation for being secure and its products, especially the ability to control door locks from a phone. Everybody sees the ADT signs. Since we wanted security, they were the first company we called. We’ve had a great experience with the reps. Anytime we have a problem, they help us and walk us through anything, like changing the batteries on the doors. They send alerts to our phones so we know, and they tell us exactly what it is.

    One time, somebody jarred the back window and the alarm went off. I could hear him over by the garage. ADT called immediately and assessed the situation in 10 seconds. It was very quick. They called the police, and they were here within a couple of minutes. So, it was a very fast response. The police didn't see any footprints and they thought raccoons were just prying around the window, or when the light came on, it scared them, and they jumped and hit the window. It was a good outcome and the response was great. So, I was extremely pleased because I happened to be here by myself.

    We started with just the door locks and then we added a camera to one of our homes in the front. There are doors in the back and we added motion cameras to the side in the back, too. We added another camera at the other house and did the same thing with our Airbnb. We had the door lock put over there and cameras on the outside of it. The door locks are great, especially when I'm coming home at night or after dark. I can stay in my car, where it's secure, and I can unlock my door, get out and go in. I don't have to fumble with keys or try to see the buttons to push. I can just do it from my phone.

    Terminix goes to our second home to spray and we can unlock the door and watch our motion detectors and see where the tech is going. Then we have cameras out back from ADT that let us watch him. We've had Terminix for a long time and we know that guy pretty much, and we never have to worry about our house. But he'll call and say he’s done. We can see him on the camera and he would say we can lock the door. So, we just lock the door and set the alarm again. ADT’s system works out well because our second home is in a different state. It's extremely convenient. So, we're happy with ADT. The products are a little pricey, but you have to factor in that you're buying it once, and then it's there and it's monitored. We've never had to have the door locks and all the cameras repaired. And the techs helped me walk through changing batteries in the door locks.

I got upset about it, but then I got over it. I just kept with them since. However, I have one Roku camera and a doorbell camera that aren't working right now. But other than that, we haven’t had much trouble with ADT at all. They're really prompt when it comes to alarms going off. They text you and call you really quickly if the alarm goes off. My son set the alarm off, and he didn't know how to shut it off. And they called me. I like that feature. I also like that when the internet and the house shut off, the system still works. Because if electricity goes out, it still works.

    The only thing I didn't like, but this has nothing to do with ADT, was that we had to get an alarm permit. I didn't know about the alarm permit until after we got the alarm system. It’s here in our county that we have to have an alarm permit to have an alarm in our house. On top of the service that we had to pay for, we had to pay for an alarm permit.

They graciously and that's snarky by the way agreed to bring somebody out free of charge. That was mighty ** of them and give me a free month for the inconvenience that I've had.

    If this doesn't work I told them that I will be filing a suit against them with my lawyer because I cannot get in or out of my house at times or even shut the alarm off with my phone because it doesn't put the 0 on the keypad until I enter the wrong code first. So I've had to change my code just so if this happens Again I can unlock it with my phone. I highly suggest anybody looking at ADT to run with your hair on fire as far away from them as possible and go with somebody else.

So, we knew something was wrong with this window and before the guy could get out here to fix it, the alarm went off again. I wasn't home and ADT should have just ignored it, but they sent the police. So, the city charged me $125 and ADT gave me the information where to send it to.

    We changed from another system to ADT and it was a learning problem, probably on our part. But it also goes to their setup. They typically go through it once and ask if we understand. But understanding and practicing are two different things. So, the reps needed to have us sit at the panel and go through it a few times. They just tried to explain it and then move on. When there was an issue, they referred me to the manager in San Jose. I just ignored the problem for a while until I finally became comfortable with the issue. But that's probably more customer error than ADT. I like getting the emails from ADT saying that so-and-so door was opened at so-and-so time or that it’s still open. It’s a nice feature. We’ve been with ADT for two years and I'd recommend it to a friend.

    My Wife ordered the service and I can actually say that she was bamboozled. She didn't know the service she had was a scam. They were supposed to give us wired equipment instead of wireless, and this was in the contract. However now there saying that we have to pay more for the inconvenience. Whaaat ADT. Not! And it's 2000 and some to get out of contract. Wow what a bummer.

    I've had ADT for at least five years and I feel very well-protected. I live alone, and I'm not home a lot. So, the protection was valuable to me. My experience with ADT has been outstanding. They're always there. They've always been responsive if there's an emergency and if there's a breach in the alarm. They've been troubleshooting.

    We were putting in cable and the cable guy told us about ADT when we bought our house. So we put the security system in when we bought our house. We've been with ADT two years and their reps have been wonderful. We accidentally set off the alarm while cooking bacon and they were super nice about it. They called and they didn't charge us or send out the cops or the fire department. The features of our service package is great. We're snowbirds, so we live in a different part of the US. So we can see it when we're not there and it's worked out perfectly for us. The cameras are installed at the right place and we can monitor our place.

    We've been with ADT since ’92 and it's good. The price is high, and I normally call them and say, “Look, you raised it too much.” On the other hand, the cost for adding equipment is reasonable and the installers are presentable people. They're professional in what they do. The reps, Audrey, Ivy, and others, have been very helpful too. They're polite, knowledgeable, and they give me straight answers. They follow up as well. I have been dealing now with Ivy for the past 10 days, and she calls back and gives me information and updates.

    I have been a loyal customer for close to 6 years. I have recently moved, unable to cancel contract without spending 4+ hours on the phone. Additionally, realized in the process I have been overcharged for a house I didn't own for over 2+ years. When moved, the home remained "active" without me knowing, along with the invoice. I'm overcharged by $1700k and now have to pay an additional $240 for current contract. Most ADT customer service could do was offer me a free camera and move to next home. Worst experience ever!

    I would recommend ADT. I like the security of it. It’s good to have it. It’s nice to know that we’re protected from somebody coming in. The camera is recording movement. One time, I pushed the fire alarm. I was testing it and it went off. They were very responsive and I got an immediate call. The service installer was real good as well. I had to contact him after that hurricane almost two years ago because we had no internet and they reinstalled the camera. It was immediate.

    Compared to the one I had before, ADT has been exceptional. Recently, our internet went out. So, we didn't have anything that went on the internet, which included our security system. But ADT sent me a message saying, “We're doing testing. We’re not able to get through,” which I already knew they wouldn't because our internet was out. I appreciated that they checked. It had to do with getting Spectrum here and it took them two days to get here. But that was with them, not ADT.

    My house was being burglarized, and I asked the police if they could recommend somebody, and they said, ADT. I’ve been a customer for 15 years and have added some features. For what I have and what I’m paying, everything is fine. One time, I needed to have a battery changed in one of the sensors, and they had somebody come out the next day. A lot of times, I set the alarm off because I forgot I had it on. I have to be careful because when I first got the system, I wasn’t attuned to it, and the police came out. They sent me a letter saying I get two free ones. If they come out again, it’ll be $100. I set it off once this year and I was able to turn it off before the police came out.

    When my son was moving things around, he moved something on the sensor on the door to the garage. I could get the overhead door down, but I couldn't get the alarm to set. So, I called ADT, and a nice man called Jerry came out and explained what happened. It wasn't the door or the sensors on it. It was a small piece on the inside near the kitchen door. Since all the doors have to be closed for the alarm to go on, that missing piece prevented the alarm from being set. He put it back on and everything was cool. I wouldn’t change from ADT to anything else.

    ADT since 2012 in San Jose, CA and sold my house in April 2025. I called them immediately to cancel service and got a email reply asking if they could interest me in setting me up in my apartment in Austin, TX. So they confirmed I had moved. Yet they continued to charge me, even after increasing the fee, until April 2026. I called in April of 2025, then again last month and they still charged me two charges: (April 05, 2026 for $26.90) & (April 21, 2026 for $9.78). Apparently there is a 30 day cancelation. So they should refund back to May, 2025 when I placed call? I consider continued charges after cancelation Theft. Is that not what they are supposed to be preventing?

    First of all, I was put into a contract that I wasn’t even aware of. I’m in the process of moving and can’t take my equipment with me, so when I spoke with a previous representative, I was told I would only be responsible for the equipment fee, which was around $300. Now I’m receiving a final bill for over $800, which makes no sense.

    When I called to get clarity, the representative I spoke with didn’t even try to hear me out—he just said he would email me the contract. This is extremely frustrating. Even canceling a phone line doesn’t cost $400+, so how is this justified? No one I spoke to over the years ever mentioned being locked into a long-term contract. I’ve been a customer for almost 4 years, and it’s honestly shocking that my contract would still be binding for this long. This whole situation feels very misleading and unfair.

    We have been ADT customers for many years. Recently, however, their customer service is unacceptable. We scheduled an appointment for service at our home, and we were given a four-hour window for the technician to come. Four hours came and went. The technician did not call to let us know that he was going to be late. Additionally, the "agent", obviously a bot, indicated that there was no way for me to find out when we could expect the technician. After waiting more than four hours, I was notified by the bot that the technician was enroute, but I wasn't given his estimated time of arrival.

    When I protested this response, I shortly received a call from the technician, and he that he was still quite a distance away from my location. He offered to reschedule the appointment, and we declined the offer to which he responded, 'Yes, I understand." Because ADT makes it impossible to speak with a human being and stonewalls requests for help, we cancelled our long-time account with ADT and do not recommend them to anyone who expects responsible and timely customer service.
