When we moved into our home, ADT was the provider that the builders wanted us to deal with. Their salesperson was the same guy who installed the equipment, and he was great. Once we started working with ADT, we decided we'd stay with them. So far, everybody's been good and the service package meets my expectations. One time, my son came home from college and he needed to get home. We weren’t around the house and he was trying to get in the home. With ADT's door panel, we just let him in through our app. Overall, I would recommend them to others.

I was a long time customer really because of inertia. It is difficult to change services when you have a system hardwired in. But over time, their service has deteriorated. They didn’t even notice when my alarm went off like for over a month. And when I needed customer service, I spent hours waiting on the phone and wasn’t able to get the help I needed to get my alarm working again.

I would like to say that I almost left ADT for another Security provider. I could never get service or anyone to respond. Then things changed. Cassie ** and her team took over. Cassie is awesome and ADT has improved by 100%. Quick service, prompt replies and they genuinely care. 5 Stars for Jacob, my ADT Service Tech was fantastic. I highly recommend ADT.

I was an ADT customer for 7 years, but was ultimately forced to terminate my relationship with the company due to consistently poor customer service. In particular, there was a persistent lack of follow-up, with routine requests often taking weeks to be addressed or resolved. Additionally, the billing department mismanaged my accounts to such an extent that I decided to close them entirely. Despite the closure of these accounts, ADT Billing has continued to retain and use my credit card information without my authorization. I consider this practice to be improper and potentially unlawful. I maintain complete documentation and records to support and validate this claim. I'm going to expose you. My attorney will be in touch.

Absolute headache. A car crashed into my house and the camera did not record one second of the crash. I called to cancel as my contract was coming to an end, and instead of cancelling like I asked, they added things to my account and signed me up for another 3 years. Now I cannot cancel without having to pay $2000.00. Worst customer service ever. I would NOT recommend ADT at ALL. Highly disappointed and dissatisfied. They never seem to fix the device problems or actually help, they just want you stuck in a contract.

I'm happy with my ADT system. I've had them across two houses since 2008. When we bought this house back in October of 2025, we got a more enhanced system than what we had in our previous home. I like the performance. I like the response and ease of the system. It was a little pricey, but that's the way it is.

I have loved ADT, except for making the payment. I'm in a mobile home park, and a lot of the people in the park use it, too. The price was much better than anything else.

ADT has been around for a long time, and I've known about them forever. Three or four years ago, I liked what they had to offer and got a package at a reasonable price. It was comparable and better than some that I looked into, and it's worked out really well. The system is excellent, and the guy that did the install was really good and nice. He went the extra mile for us. I can't say enough good things about him. He made sure it was all plugged in, so there are no batteries or having someone redo it. I really liked that.
The only downside to this whole thing is I was a little disappointed with the call system. They don't get too excited when the alarm goes off and they don't make a big deal about it. That frustrated me in the beginning, but I'm used to it now. I've never called in for tech support or order new products. I don't know how that worked, but I was looking into the fact that I need some more outside cameras and nobody's ever called and asked. Other than that, everything is going along smoothly. We haven't had any issues and as far as I know, they haven't had any issues with me. All in all, our experience has been awesome. The only person I've dealt with is the guy that installed the system and he was great. Everything else has been a recording or a text. We hope everything's all right.

ADT offered better pricing and monitoring compared to other companies, and I’ve been with them for over 20 years. I moved from my previous address after I sold the house, and the installers came the first week we were here at our new address and installed the system, which was great because we felt better. The installation team was very professional. When I retired and needed to stay within a budget, I contacted ADT to make sure I could still afford everything. It went up by $10 a month and they worked with me because they’d rather keep a customer than lose one. They also helped with installing the new battery.
About 10 years ago, someone attempted to break in at my previous address and the alarm went off. ADT called and they realized that something wasn't right because when they called me, it cut the phone line off. I called 911 and they came, but the person had already left. ADT came out and fixed the problem. It was something that wasn't wired right. They said they can't lose sight of talking to me, because that's my lifeline. So, they corrected that quickly. The customer service is excellent and ADT has been wonderful to me over the years, which is why I’ve remained a loyal customer.

I am filing a complaint against ADT regarding defective home security equipment and failure to honor their satisfaction guarantee. For approximately six months, I have been experiencing ongoing issues with my ADT security equipment. The system has not been functioning properly, and despite multiple attempts to have the issue resolved, ADT has refused to repair or replace the malfunctioning equipment.
A home security system is supposed to provide safety and reliability, but the equipment I was provided has continued to fail. I have made repeated service requests and also filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau in an effort to resolve the problem, but ADT has not provided a meaningful solution. ADT advertises customer satisfaction and reliable protection, yet they are refusing to stand behind their equipment or replace the defective system. I am requesting that this issue be reviewed as a potential case of unfair or deceptive business practices.

ADT’s systems are very reliable and when you have a problem, the reps help you right away. Most of the time, they could do it over the phone. When my old system was out of date, ADT gave me another system and it didn't cost me any more money. Then, they gave me extra sensors for my windows so, I was very happy with it. Last week, I was speaking to their support team. I had a problem with my alarm system and they worked it out over the phone with me. They walked me right through it with a video, so they're very reliable. Plus, they give you a senior discount.

I first got ADT in 2008. I saw a lot of advertisement and I heard good things about them on the radio. So, I decided to go with them. The installation team was very good when I needed to have a new panel. My service package is good. I'm thinking about making some changes, though. I'm not sure about a couple of things, so I want to make some changes to my package. ADT's coverage is good compared to some of the others I've seen. I would love a lower price. However, their price is good compared to what I've heard from some other people. I really don't use their website, but the app has been very good. I haven't had many problems with the app.
We had a fire in the building and the alarm went off and they called me. They made sure I was okay. That was the only incident that happened and that was about a couple of years ago. I have recommended ADT to a couple of people and told them I was very satisfied with their service. The customer service was great. Whenever I called and needed anything, they were very patient and very professional and I didn't have any problem with it. Overall, I'm completely satisfied and cared for as a customer.

We put some wireless sensors on our system, because unfortunately, wear and tear wires over 20 years. The installers called and were on time. We had that taken care of, and it's great. If we cook something and the fire alarm comes off, ADT calls right away, or I call them right away and get it resolved and make sure they don't send the fire department over. They were always great. Sometimes, the alarm goes off at different times, but we can deal with that.

Steer clear of this security service, I got ours when we purchased a new home, spent several thousands of dollars on top of the thousand dollars our lender gave us to install ADT security in our home, and have had issues since it was installed, in this year, all our cameras got disconnected randomly, the fire alarms will randomly disconnect and sound the alarm at 2 in the morning, the cameras are a horrible quality and outdated, the doorbell chimer stopped working, I had to go through 4 levels of customer service just for the 5th level to need to call us back and never did, finally recontacted them and told them they had to send someone out to fix it, they scheduled us out a week out, then rescheduled, when someone finally came they told us it was broke and they can no longer order replacements or parts for the chimer, mind you this system was less than a year old, and to “update it” would cost thousands of dollars again.
Anytime you contact customer service expect to spend at least an hour, it randomly has disconnected from our phones multiple times, I bought this system because I wanted my wife to feel safe while I was at work but now it does no help. And they trap you in a 6-7 year contract with no way out besides paying thousands of dollars, and only give you a 3 day period to decide to get out, they also charge you for every service appointment when their system fails.

I read up on ADT somewhere and thought I'd try it for the smoke alarms. I live by myself, so I figured I don't know what I'd do if somebody opened that door and the alarm went off.

If I have any problems at all, I make an appointment, then they come right over and fix everything. I like the idea that they wear those little slippers so they don't screw up my rug, unlike my brother who comes over and doesn't care. I got to put blankets down everywhere because I got a new carpet. When the ADT people come over, they have those little rubber slippers and I go, "Oh, this is really cool."

ADT called the police, which my husband was the highway patrolman, and when the police got there, they called and let me know that it was our dog on the outside jumping up against the door and made the alarm go off.
I ended that service at my old home, but I have new service at my new home. The installer was very good. He came the day they said he was coming, installed everything that needed to be installed and made sure everything was working before he left. He explained to me and he worked at the panel. The panel I was used to was an old panel and I have a new digital panel now. The installer also left his book and his number in case I needed any access with anything else. I've been in my new home for about a year and I still have the same thing that he installed in my new home that I'm in now. People need to invest in getting ADT because they're reliable and it's easy to work the panel. Whenever we call or need some assistance, they're always available.

The departments at ADT don't communicate well. You would think you've ordered a certain thing, but when they come out to install it, they're bringing something completely different, and they're only bringing half of what you had ordered. Then they expect you to pay when it's supposed to not be charged. The only way to get it straightened out is to make five phone calls and go on up the chain, if you finally get somebody that's got enough common sense to take a look at all the records and realize that there's been mistakes and that it needs to be cleaned up and fixed.
They reduced our monthly rate for five years and locked that in. So, that was good. But it was just a pain in the neck. If we didn't keep good records and didn't remember exactly what was supposed to be what, it would have been a nightmare because you wouldn't have been able to prove what anybody said or anybody did. So, that was a challenge.
We moved locations from Seattle to Texas. When we were in Texas, we added cameras, and we've upgraded cameras since we've been down here. We've had instances where there was a pot on the stove that was steaming and the alarm went off. There was no damage done. ADT called really quick. So, it's reassuring that they're there and on the job. That part of it has been very good. We feel confident that it works, but the communication with their sales and installation departments is severely lacking.

I have paid approximately $1,700 for services related to a system that has not functioned properly since installation, rendering no services from ADT. I have also recently been notified that $673 has been referred to a creditor for collection.

The installation guys who came in got here one morning at around 8 o'clock, but the cameras weren't here. They were under the impression that the camera was gonna be here when they got here. We had the work order. So, they ended up leaving. Then about six hours later, the guy brought the camera. So, the installation guys came back later in the day, and they hooked it up. Everything's been good since then. When I got ADT, I thought I could get a camera for the garage, but I couldn't. But I let everything go on for about five months and now, I have that camera that I wanted. With ADT, I like how it's come on my phone instead of being on the wall.

ADT was very professional and they took care of everything. They weren't pushy. They just told me the prices and the procedures on how to get everything in. It was done in a professional way. I never had a problem when I called them either with issues or things that malfunctioned. The package that I have is good. So far, I'm very pleased with it. There are times that I forget to disarm the system but once I put the code in and disarm it, they know it's me. They would ask, "Was it you?" Then I put it in there, yes. The response was instantaneous. When doors and windows are open, they don't waste time. It's immediate. Also, their website is good. ADT is excellent in performance and in responding to emergency situations. When I had a problem with the equipment, they sent replacements and it was mailed in, and then the old one was sent back. Everything was done professionally and well.

ADT Customer for 22+ years. My local electric company has the same services for a fraction of the cost. I changed the service in early January. ADT tried to bill me for a quarter after their equipment had been canceled in writing and deinstalled prior to Feb. The bill is for service from Feb 28 - May 29. How does that make sense. Evidently they think a call is more secure than the notice in writing via USPS with a personal check from the person cancelling. They had no issue knowing it was me when they cashed the check. They said that the reason they require a call to cancel is that they have to read a statement explaining that the monitoring will no longer work once cancelled. I told them that I know their monitoring won't work since it has not been installed for over 2 months.
Please be aware that there is no protocol or ping to make sure that the equipment is installed or operational! Now they want to reduce the bill to 1 month and have me call back in to dispute the charge. Today is March 10th, so they want to reduce the charge to 1 month starting Feb 28 when the equipment was removed early January. They say that is so that they can notify the Police and Fire department that I am no longer an ADT customer.... unbelievable. They suggested 1 call back and go through the phone calls again in a week to try and dispute the Month of Feb charge.

I have had ADT Security for many years. In the last year the cameras have been a constant problem. They detect motion but do not photograph it. The only time they photograph is normal coming and going of family. That is no help. A person needs photos of the motions when no one is home. That is not happening. Customer service is an AI bot.

We had our landline removed because it was hardly being used, and it was an extra cost every month. I looked up ADT online and saw that there was a cellular device that we could use instead. So I called ADT and I spoke with several different people, and everyone was very good about explaining everything to us and how things would happen. Originally, our appointment with the installer was to add that cellular device to the box that is downstairs in the basement and then we could get rid of our landline.
When the installer came over, we walked around, showed him the keypads, and it was such an old system. It was 33 years old already, and he said, "I can probably change this keypad for you, to redo it so it's set up for the cellular thing." He explained in detail. He took his time explaining to us how it would benefit us to just change the keypads. We didn't need to change the sensors in the doors. The cellular device would actually not be downstairs, but in the main keypad by the back door.
By the time he got done with doing this, our quarterly bill would actually be lower. He really took his time to do this. He said, "I have to make an appointment to come back and do this. I have to have all the right equipment.” So, we said, "Okay. We'll do this." We talked with other people, and they had us sign some things online. We were able to read things and ask questions. Then when the gentleman came back, it was a good three hours to change things over. He explained everything every step of the way. We were very happy to not have to deal with the landline anymore. We were shown how to use everything. He explained everything.
We had a new secondary keypad up in the bedroom. That evening, when we turned off the lights in the bedroom, there was a lot of light off that keypad. Not something we had before. These are LEDs. The old one had a tiny, little green and red dots that you could hardly see. But this new one has the little screen that says that something is being moved downstairs and then there's a big red button and a green one. I tried to cover that during the night because we don't sleep with light anywhere.
I called ADT the next day, and they checked on me and said, "No. It is like that. We won't actually be able to change that." So I made a little paper hood out of some card stock to cover it. Now there's just a little light that hits the floor. That was what I did the first time. But then if someone walks through the kitchen and the sensor goes off and it says default, it immediately changes back. It says something and then it changes back. Then on this keypad upstairs, all of the number keys would light up in bright green and stay on for a minute every single time. What a waste that it’s coming on all day long. I'm home a lot and walk around the kitchen to the front door. So this thing would be operating all the time.
I called up ADT again, and I went through several people. When I talked to the last person in tech help, I went upstairs, and we went through this whole thing. He was really patient once again. He was able to hook up remotely and see what was happening with my keypad up there. He went through a number of things and he was able to shut that backlight that's inside down so it wasn't as bright. Then he went through a number of steps and finally, he could see those green lights didn't come on at all. I told him that we didn't need those numbers coming on. We can see them without the light. He was able to shut it off for us. It took a few days for us to get this stuff sorted out. But everybody was extremely helpful. We're all set, and everything works the way it's supposed to.
We see improvements in what ADT has done with the keypads. We didn't have a panic button before. So, this is really interesting, and it's not just a panic button. When you press that button and before anything goes off, you have to press one of the buttons below it, indicating whether it's fire or somebody breaking. You can choose the reason for pressing the panic button and that's a great idea, so that you don't just nilly-willy set something off and nobody knows what it is. It's been a good experience. When we needed to change things, they had a way for us to do it, so that made us very happy. Everyone took care of us.

ADT was heavily advertised and seemed to be fair at the time I heard about it, and I gave them a try. I’ve been with them for over 25 years and I’ve had upgrades over the years. My most recent installation was horrible. I live in the country and have a detached garage that could never connect to my Wi-Fi, even though the techs tried everything. The biggest issue was that it took almost four months to get the system up and running, so I went that entire time without security. I didn’t pay during that period, but it still wasn’t right. Once you sign off, that means that you were supposed to check everything. I didn't check everything like you’re supposed to check your smoke detectors monthly. So that falls on me.
My home has both wired and wireless. The house was already built, so for the things where they couldn't run a hard line, they put wireless. I’m more used to wired systems, and while I understand newer technology like Bluetooth and wireless setups, it doesn’t always work the way it should for me. I’m just not used to that newer technology. I was sold on the idea that the upgrade would be better, with features like a touchscreen, but none of that worked at my house. There are other people who have the same system and it works for them, but it just didn’t work for my setup. Being in business, ADT should be able to assess Wi-Fi strength and system compatibility beforehand.
In the end, ADT’s techs ripped out the upgrade and put back in what I had, just a newer model. So the features are the same. Nothing is more enhanced or remains the same. It’s what I had 20 years ago. The customer service has always been excellent whenever I’ve needed assistance. Despite the issues with the upgrade, I would still recommend ADT to friends and family.

I strongly urge anyone considering ADT to read every single line of the agreement before committing. What initially appears to be a simple home security purchase quickly turns into a long‑term and very expensive financial obligation. In my case, the system was structured so that the equipment itself is financed over 44 monthly payments of $32, and on top of that there is a $27 monthly monitoring fee for the 24/7 Life Safety service. When you add everything together, the real cost of what looks like a basic alarm system becomes surprisingly high.
When I raised concerns and explained that the total cost was not clearly understood at the time of purchase, the only response I received was essentially that I had signed the paperwork and therefore the charges were valid. While that may technically be true, it reflects a very rigid approach to customer service and does not leave customers feeling supported or valued.
For a company that markets itself as a trusted provider of home security, I expected clearer communication about the true long‑term financial commitment and a more customer‑focused response when concerns were raised. To fellow customers: please take the time to carefully read the contract details and calculate the full cost before agreeing to anything. There are many other modern home security providers that offer transparent pricing, flexible terms, and equipment that you actually own without being locked into expensive multi‑year payment structures. Based on my experience, I would strongly recommend exploring those alternatives before choosing ADT. I wish I had read reviews like this before signing.

I have four properties under ADT. My experience has been positive. I have had my alarm go off a few times, and they have called immediately. They don't bother me. They'll call and leave a message. If the alarm goes off and I answer the phone, they'll tell me that someone turned the alarm off, and that's why they did not call the police. But there have been times when they have called the police. But that was because I was delayed getting to call to turn it off. But they've been pretty quick. Also, some places have people who don't speak English well, but I haven't had that problem with ADT. I would recommend ADT to a friend.

ADT provides good service, which was a deciding factor for me when I went with them over 30 years ago. Since then, I’ve gone wireless, using all remote.

Had service for my small business. Requested cancellation when exiting the space. They have a record of my call in, but did not cancel the service. I realized after a little over 12 months that they continued to bill my card. Took an act of congress to find the phone number to try and have this resolved. The rep was incredibly rude when I attempted to cancel. I asked for a refund of the unused services paid for. She laughed at me. Not only did they fail to cancel when I asked to cancel, they stole more than 12 months of service payments from me. NOT A CHANCE IN HELL I WILL EVER USE ADT FOR SECURITY SERVICES/CAMERAS AGAIN.

Original Review: March 6, 2026
Company bold faced lied to me about equipment being free, even though they run specials online and representatives say it's free. Make sure when you sign the contract YOU READ IT!!! I took the tech for his word and now being billed 1300.00 for the equipment. Ran into tech that installed 3 weeks later in town. He said that was horrible. He lied & said he didn't bill me. Tech said he wants quit because that's the 3rd time he's heard the company lied & billed the customer for free equipment. Tech got approved to install for free & free equipment. So they both lied. Customer service is no help at ALL!!!!

Generally my ADT service is good, however today a door alarm started going off over & over so I had to call to support. This ends up taking into a AI "assistant" & basically doesn't allow you to talk to a Rep, just over & over "tell me, let me help, I need to know". For my elderly mother, if she's having to call in an Emergency this is ridiculous! If my repeated response is CUSTOMER SERVICE then I expect to be routed to one immediately!

ADT is a well-known security system. When people see the blue thing they have outside, everybody knows someone has a good security system. The first time I had experience with them was when I bought my home. They came in and did the installation, then they offered me the service, and I said, "Okay, I'll try it." So far, so good. It's a three-year contract and my experience has been excellent. It's been easy. The only thing is sometimes the WiFi with the lights go out and I have to reset the unit on the door. The cameras come back on themselves, but with the one on the door, I gotta go there, do it manually, take it out, and then put it back in.
The technician who came in to do the install was informative and he told me about the system. He was a cool guy. He did everything and then I followed what he told me and set up the password and how the cameras work. ADT has an app where I can do that. It's really helpful that I can close the garage or set the alarm through my phone. I'd give it 10 stars if I could.

We had an issue with our system. We had something installed on the house. When I got to turn the alarm on that evening, the Pulse app that Dan installed for me, wasn't working at all. So, I called ADT. I talked to a guy named Roberto. He said, “Uninstall and reinstall.” I said, “Okay. No problem.” The next day, I was going upstairs where that installation took place, and I noticed that the plug-in for the pole system was off. It was plugged in, but it was at an angle. So, I plugged the thing back in. My Pulse system came right up. I checked my phone right after it. And everything is running 100%.
I've had a couple of assistance calls. We had the glass sensors installed. And one of them wasn't working properly. I bought another battery, stuck it in, but it didn't work. Then I called ADT. They gave me a 30-minute to an hour window. The gentleman called me up. He said, “You just do that.” And I did. And, bam, they're working.
We also got a call from a neighbor one time, and he said there was some vandalism. I called ADT. I asked them to come out to check our systems. The guy came out. He did the entire checkup for every sensor. Everything was done. Then he installed the Pulse system. It's been good.

Run from ADT!! Worst experience ever. Was quoted an amount for install and equipment in December. We were looking at two different companies due to the urgency of installation (in December 2025). Installer came out, installed items - we were under the impression we were paying $20 per additional window sensors. We are now being charged the quote monthly monitoring fee and an additional $80 plus a month for two years for install/equipment!!! I have spoken with ADT, they gave me a $200 credit. This is entirely unacceptable and such poor customer service.
The installers make commission on their upsales and are not forthcoming about the charges. They give you a small screen to look at for the contract and we were told, no need to read - it's exactly what we discussed. WE DIDN'T DISCUSS OVER $2000 IN CHARGES!

They charged me for the next two months higher amounts and that have nothing to do with my monthly payment and additionally they charged 400 dollars from the new card put in the system that they could never justify
Today they didn’t returned the 400. And none of the other amounts charged to the initial card. As I said, they are thieves as far as the administrative part, no one can argue about the security service they provide but as for the rest they are the worst.

I asked them if they have a promotion for senior citizens. I am a senior citizen at this time. He said he thought so.
Pricing was high for me. I'm on Social Security, and that's all I have to live off of. I had to stop my job because I couldn't take care of my dad and work, too. I don't have any regrets on that part, but it caused me to lose some of my benefits. So, I was trying to find something that would be reasonable and wouldn't be a hardship for me.
The gentleman that came out for the installation was wonderful. I still call him from time to time. He is a younger gentleman named Chris. The only thing with ADT is whenever the batteries go out on your alarm, they won't send anybody out without a charge. I have high ceilings in my house, and I can't get up on a stool or a ladder and change the batteries out. Chris is like, "If I'm in the neighborhood, I'm close in the neighborhood, you just call me and I'll stop through and I'll put your battery." Those little simple things like that mean a lot.

I've been with ADT since January. When I was getting a quote, I dealt with a lady named Paige, and she was very nice and helpful in all the things. Then the tech came out and got everything set up and did what he needed to do. My account was originally started with my Yahoo email and they didn't tell me that that was a problem. When the tech got here to install, he told me I had to have a Gmail and we had to fix everything to the Gmail because it's a Google Home system.
They also failed to mention that there were going to be two separate charges. The whole time we talked, it was going to be 49.99 a month, which was fantastic. However, I'm on autopay, and I saw a $49 charge and a $51 charge on my card. Once I was at that point, I couldn't get anybody to answer or help me. So, I've been a little frustrated. I was able to get through to somebody finally, and they said, “One is a monitoring charge, and one is an installment charge for the equipment,” which I understand after the fact, but it was never told to me during the setup. I’m not 100% sure I would have done it if I knew I was spending over $100 a month.
I set the alarm at night. My three-year-old is a sleepwalker, and that gives me peace of mind, but that's the only thing I use it for. As far as monitoring goes, I don't know if I necessarily need their monitoring. The other side of it is that I didn't understand that 24/7 monitoring didn't have a recording. If something happened and someone gave me an exact time, unless I was on looking at my camera at that exact time, or there was motion, it's not going to be there. I can't go back and check at certain times. The only way I can see anything is if I'm live on the app looking. That was a little misleading. Also, there are two different apps I have to use, ADT Plus and Google Home. I can't figure out how to turn off notifications to one. So, every time I get a notification, I get double, and nothing will ever open in ADT Plus. It opens in Google Home, but I can't change anything in there. I can only make changes in the ADT Plus app.
I have window sensors, door sensors, cameras on each side of my house, and two glass break sensors. I have one in the front part of my house in my daughter's room. Her windows don't open, so I did the glass break there. The installer talked me into doing a glass break versus the window sensors in the back bedroom, because it has two windows, where I should have done two more window sensors instead of the glass break. I regret doing the glass break for the back bedroom. I've had it since January 10, and I've changed the batteries in that thing three times, and it will not work. So, now, we just have to run with it offline and not even use that glass break that I pay for every month. They've screwed it into my wall and I have to pay out the installment.
Setup with ADT was easy, but after installation, they're lacking with customer service. They do really good on their marketing. When I put in my information for an inquiry on a Saturday, they called me within 10 minutes. I can't get a call like that now that I've set up with them, and whenever I do customer service, I get to talk to a robot and not a person. I've tried checking with the automated system on the glass break thing with the batteries and troubleshooting, and I've done everything. The batteries last about seven to 10 days, and they're not cheap.

ADT has been pretty good, other than the fact that my Ring broke. To replace it, they wanted me to pay for the technician to come out and pay for the Ring.

I've been with ADT since '21. I got the security alarm because it's just me and my daughter living here. Initially, I was away taking care of my aunt up in Sag Harbor, New York and I went on ahead and got the same security company that she had because I liked the way hers was working. ADT has been very professional and the system is easy for me to work. However, I can't understand my bill and when I have time, I will call the billing people and ask them. They take out two amounts. They're also pricey on sending me the batteries that go up in the sensor thing. They sent that $25 and I got two. The light on the panel for my sensor was blinking red and green, and they said that my battery was low. Aside from that, I would like another camera on the back of my house. I only have one on the front and I have three doors, but I'll get to that.

I signed up with ADT about 25 years ago. It was the dominant force in the industry at the time. My experience, so far, has been fine. The system works great. I don't have any problems with it. When there had been an intrusion, there was quick response to that. So, it's fulfilled its purpose. ADT doesn't do anything more to make me feel any safer or not safer. I'm just not one of those people who is running around and worrying about my safety. Most people would feel much safer. There are features that certainly add to that feeling of safety.

We have had ADT at various locations and homes for over 30 years, and I will NEVER do business with them again. It has taken 4 phone calls to finally get a human being, and it took over 3 hours to finally get someone. Instead of agreeing to cancel, because we moved!, she spent an hour putting me on hold and trying to talk me into using them again. Why in the world would I use someone to protect me who doesn't answer the phone and has AI that is completely unhelpful as well. What if I actually needed help? They also will not let me cancel to this date and even after a dozen hours total on hold, they are going to charge me another month for a house I moved out of a month ago!

ADT was the top recommended on the internet, and I think they have a good reputation. I just have the cameras and a box, and I got it to watch my dogs. Our Golden Retrievers are very friendly, and they have a tendency to pull people into the yard, and I'm afraid they'll leave the yard. I've had ADT for about five months and I just got the basic system to start off with, but then if I should pass, I wanted to have something to build on so my wife could add security if she wanted to.
The two techs who came to install were very congenial. I do have a problem with trying to communicate with the home office. I called and tried to leave a message or get somebody to talk to me. I'm having my home re-sided, and I've got these four cameras. The cable was embedded out there. It just disappears behind the fittings or on the camera. So, I didn't know whether I should call ADT and have them come out and take them down, or I can rely on the siding guy to work around it. I kind of think that's out of his bailiwick, and I don't want to damage the cameras. I had a hard time contacting ADT. I was online with them, and I was typing something in back and forth. Then, all of a sudden, something went awry there. It’s probably my fault because I'm not too savvy, but I never heard anything back. They have my name, my number, and contact information. I would like to contact them to ask them what I should do.
ADT could make the price much lower. I didn't think I'd have to pay a monthly fee because I paid a lot of money upfront on this thing, and then come to find out, I had to pay a monthly fee. It's just they’re not monitoring anything. I'm doing it all myself. I should have argued more over that point, but I wanted the system, so I got the system. Other than that, I'd recommend ADT to a friend.

We bought the house that had a Brinks system in it. Then ADT bought Brinks out and they took over. Switching over to ADT was easy and we didn't really make any upgrades. We got an inside camera and that was it. Initially, we had some problems and the service we received wasn't stellar, but we eventually got the problems solved. Right now, I'm having a problem with my keypad. They replaced that three years after we switched to ADT and we've been in this home now for 18 years, so we've had the same keypad for about 12. And whenever we want to make a change, they would always tell us to get an upgrade, which includes raising the amount of money we owe ADT. But if we're making an upgrade, why charge the customer? It's an upgrade on ADT's part, not on the customer's part. Other than that, the customer service reps that I talked to have been pretty helpful for the most part.

ADT was already in my house when I bought it. Every single person that I talked to was extremely helpful and super friendly. I don't know if I'm special, but everybody has been wonderful.

The fact that I know that the house is connected to a central station and the fire department would be alerted if there was ever a fire makes me feel very comfortable. For a while, we were forgetting to lock the garage door, and it would pop open sometimes during the day with the wind, and that would set off the alarm. The central station would call and confirm my identity and then disable the alarm. It's great service.
The system that I inherited when we bought the house is working wonderfully. Recently, the control panel needed to be replaced, and ADT said they needed to upgrade us. I thought we were just upgrading the panel, but it was a 4-hour job. With the update that they provided me, they did lower my price. I have used their website. It met my needs.

I've been an ADT customer and have been dealing with an ongoing camera issue for quite some time now. Despite multiple attempts to get help, the customer service team has been unhelpful and difficult to work with. Each time I call, I feel like I'm starting from scratch — having to re-explain the same issue without any real progress toward a resolution. No one seems willing to take ownership of the problem or escalate it to someone who can actually fix it.
When you're paying for a home security system, you expect it to work — and when it doesn't, you expect the company to stand behind their product. ADT has fallen short on both counts.

My Mother has been a customer for 13 years. The system stopped working after Hurricane Florence. The system has apparently not worked since then. Take in account that my Mother is now 93 years old. She told me that her bank account was still being charged for this service still. So I called a ADT office in Morehead City NC and spoke to a very nice lady that tried to help me. She saw per the records that my Mother had called in 2021 to have someone go fix it. My Mother said that she was told at that time that they had no one to go out and repair the service. So, this nice lady put a block on the draft. And said she would send the password to her in the mail, so that it could be cancelled.
Well after about 3-4 weeks she finally got that letter with the password, and she also got a separate letter with a bill for the month of February, paid by draft in January and draft stopped. But a bill for February in the mail. I called a Morehead office again. Only to get an AI operator directing me to a 800 #. Called the number and got a guy that said he would have to transfer me another department and that due to a 15 minute wait he would put me down for a callback. So, waited the rest of that day and no call back. Next day, my third day of working on this! I go to my GPS app and pull up ADT in Morehead City NC, and there were about six locations. All having review rates of 1, 2, at the most 3 stars! Picked one and called the number.
This time I get this women that listens to the story, but tries to talk me out of canceling the service, tried to say they would offer a cheaper rate, and fix the service. Then tried to put a guilt trip on me saying that she didn’t need to be without any service. I explained to her that she had not had any service for all this time, and that I would think if you are a security service that they would be able to see on their end that the service was non functional! She kept on and on, I told her I wanted it canceled, so she says my Mother will get a final bill. I told her that she has a bill, and that she was not paying that bill and or any final bill! That they had taken advantage of an elderly lady that can’t hear, and does no cellphones or anything. And if anything I felt like they owed her money.
So, today thinking that this nightmare of an experience was over. I get a call from ADT. The call back from two days ago, hahaha!!! He also was of no help, no sympathy, just said it was our choice to not pay, that basically we would have to deal with any negative outcomes from that. And when I asked if he did not care, he said that his feelings were of none of my business and that he was just doing what he had to do to keep his job. WOW!!! So, I do not recommend anyone using ADT for security. They are the rudest, unfeeling, dysfunctional outfit that I have ever dealt with. So this took four days of my time on the phone.
I hope the Better Business Bureau looks into them because they are all about money, and thriving on elderly, and making it so impossible to get up with them that it just drags it out longer and longer. I am like another person’s review. If I could give a 0 review and still be given the option to type I would. Please don’t bother either sending me back your generic reply! Because I’m not interested. My next transaction will be to the Better Business Bureau. You should be ashamed!!! I could not work for a company this awful!

Years ago, when my house was broken into a couple of times in three months, the police came and they recommended that I get ADT. I did and have been with ADT since, and that was about 30 years ago. Getting in touch with them has been pretty easy. You just have to know which numbers to call and I've got that all written down in my book. When you've been there for so long, you get in easier. It's like a gratitude thing for the length of time you've been with them. They usually treat you a little bit better too. I get through pretty quickly and usually, within two days, they can get somebody out here to do whatever I need done. When they come to fix something, they take care of it quickly and efficiently. They're in and out in less than an hour usually.
Customer service has always been excellent. A technician replaced my keypad just recently when I had him do some other things. He saw how old the keypad was and he replaced it for no money at all. I have a brand-new keypad, which is great 'cause I could hardly read the figures on the other one. Their fees are not all that much for considering what you get. When I was pretty short of money for a while, I thought about canceling it but I decided no, I would miss it very much. It gives me a great sense of security.
I've been very happy with ADT and I like the simplicity of the system. I have a very simple mechanism with the keypad and it's very easy to know which ones to pick, if I'm gonna stay in the house all night or if I'm gonna have somebody else come later, I don't want the thing going off as soon as they come in the house. The instructions that come with it are very easy to understand as well. The little batteries wear out after a while and are pretty expensive but you can get them through Amazon for a very reasonable price. You don't have to purchase from ADT and I like that too that they're not particular about their things where you couldn't get them anyplace else. The guys who came out to repair gave me this information and that's very generous of them to do that. They also showed me how to replace them myself, which was nice.

My previous wife had used ADT at her other house, and when we got married, we moved. We asked if we could move the system to a new house we built. And they said yes. Then, we bought a bigger house in the same area and they transferred it again. I’ve had the security system since about 1998. I called them because they made some additions and we were interested in adding to the program that we currently had. We added features for opening the garage door with our phone and for setting the alarm away from the home. ADT had a representative come out and do that and show us how everything worked. The added cost was minimal, so we went ahead with it, and we’ve had that part of the system for about 10 years.
The installation team was very efficient, thorough and explanatory, and they did a great job. I had an emergency once when someone tried to break into our home while we were out to dinner. They used something to hit the glass in the locked door and that splintered it and then shattered it. But as soon as they stepped through the broken glass door, the alarm went off, and the police were there in three minutes. So, all they created was a mess of glass. The system saved me from losing anything.
Aside from the ability to open and close the garage door from off-site and turn the system on and off remotely, we also have standard door and window security and smoke detectors. ADT is excellent and has always given us great customer service. They were very thorough and followed up.

Whenever I would call them, my experience would depend on who I talk to. Some representatives are more helpful and useful than others. Other than that, I would tell others to sign up with them. The product is good and the equipments are great. They're a little pricey though. I’m spending $120 a month and $60 off it is for the equipment.
Aside from that, when I got setup with them, I already had the camera, the panel, and the doorbell camera. And it behooved me because I had the equipment, but I had to get the equipment fee charge, which is $1,000. I was with Alder and Alder got bought out by ADT. So, since I already had the equipment, I felt that it should have been like an exchange when I switched over.

I can pull up my cameras and see what's going on around my house or something. I know one time my alarm went off and we thought we had intruders. And I was able to look around my house with the cameras and eventually found that it was a false alarm. One of my sensors fell from the window and that caused the alarm to go off. If I hear a noise outside, I can pull up my camera without getting up and looking out of the window and see what's going on, if something is actually going on. Just having a visual access to what's going around on my property, even if I'm not there. If you're looking for a good security company or agent, talk to people from ADT.

ADT is a great service. I've been with them for about 9 years. I like the system pretty much. The only thing I don't like is that when the alarm goes off, you can barely hear it. That part of it concerns me and my wife. At our last house, when ADT went off, you can hear it from the outside. In our new home, it's not loud. I don't know if it’s because it's a larger home that the volume is not that loud. Other than that, the system's features are excellent. My favorite is the control panel. When we come in the house, it's easily accessible. It works very well. The panel can control the temperature when we're away from the house.

My mother had ADT for over 40 years before she passed, and the neighborhood I live in used to be a little rough. I decided to get ADT to make sure my home will be safe, and I’ve been protected with ADT for a month. The quality of the people I’ve dealt with has been good. They’re professional, and the technician who came to install the system was excellent. It’s not hard to at all to get in contact with customer service; I usually spend a few minutes on the phone, but it’s very easy. The system works good but I want to hear my doorbell inside my house when it rings instead of on my phone. So I have to get another part for that. Still, ADT gives me a good sense of security because I can see everything and monitor who’s passing by my door. My favorite feature is the camera. I’m always looking at it since I’m nosy. Whenever my family and friends are ready to get ADT, they're gonna get it. They’re always bragging about it.

Our experience with ADT has always been very good. I'm very pleased with ADT. ADT is very responsive. They do a great job. I just have a basic system. Then I went with State Farm Insurance, which upgraded my existing system. I like the old one better because I had motion sensors. This one just has glass breaks. They've changed their software, too, which doesn't work well for me because I have a bird. But I'm happy with what they provide. I just don't have all of the features that are available. But I like that they haven't raised their rates in a while.

For nearly the entire time we've used ADT, it has been non functional. The only positive aspect of ADT is the Google Nest, which you can just buy on your own. The ADT+ app is needlessly confusing, and it's unclear how to sign into MyADT as it requires a verbal password (which I don't recall ever making). The entire product seems is a scam. I was dishonestly assured that it would be very easy to cancel, but they require you to call and answer an unending list of questions and wait on hold. All I want to do is cancel my subscription and it's a headache. I completely regret ever signing up for ADT and I wish I would have just gotten google nest instead. Do yourself a favor and avoid getting involved with this company in any way. I have no interest in continuing with this company and I feel compelled to warn others about ADT whenever possible, both online and in person.

We've been with ADT for five years now, and my experience has been very well. One day, I thought I had closed the door and it must have been ajar. Before I could get off the block, they responded and told me, and I came back to the house. When I've had power outages, and I didn't know how to get back online and what to do, I called, and they walked me through it.
I haven't had to call them that often. But in every company, it's hard to talk to a human being. But they provide a reliable service. I haven't had any problems with them. However, I'm hard of hearing, and sometimes when I'm asleep, my son can come into the house, and I don't even know it. I wish it could go up at a higher volume for people who are hard of hearing.

I've had ADT for quite a while, about seven years, and I haven't had any problems with it. As matter of fact, I had to have a technician come out here once and he got everything straight.

When I moved into my new house in 2018, ADT was already installed and I kept it going. They've come out a couple of times, and they were really nice guys that came. The system is old, so they put some new parts in it and they were really nice about doing it. I kept everything the same as is. I didn't know ADT had cameras, so we have separate cameras, but one never has enough cameras nowadays. Fortunately, I haven't had that big of an emergency yet. The wind blew our door open one night and the alarm worked perfectly. We didn't close the door all the way, and when the wind blew it open, the alarm went off. People could hear it 10 miles away.

I called ADT and reported something. The alarm was going on and on and when my son said, “Mom, let's turn off the alarm,” I said, “No. Don't turn it off. I want to see how long it's gonna take for someone to answer me.” If the alarm goes on, they're supposed to call. I just wanted to see because I've been having the alarm for 30 something years. Finally, after maybe 20 minutes that the alarm has been going on, someone answered me and told me that they'd transfer me to the right department. When he came in, he spoke to me and told me to do this and do that, but I didn't know what to do. My neighbor was outside and I asked them to help me because by that time, my son stepped out. It was not a big problem though.
Since I've been with ADT, I called them about three times. They've been very nice to me. I'm not gonna leave ADT. The only reason why I did call to complain was if there was someone who came here and hurt me, why did they call me to ask me if I was okay. They were supposed to send me someone.

One of my batteries went out here probably a couple of weeks ago, and ADT called me and told me what to do and how to repair it and sent me a new battery. I had to pay for it, but they sent me a new battery in the mail, and everything works fine. I have one camera in my living room facing the front door. I have a smoke alarm in my basement, and in my family room. I was dissatisfied with ADT because they kept getting more expensive. I complained about it. And since I'm old, they gave me a price and locked it in. I won't ever have to pay anything any higher than that. So, they listened to what I had to say and they acted upon it.

There are other companies that are less expensive. However, we're happy with ADT. We have alarms on our doors and windows and a fire detector. We have the motion detectors, but we don't use them because we have cats that we leave at home. A couple of years ago, we put in a new door to the basement. ADT had to come and put a new detector. We also had some of our detectors removed. We had some that weren't very important, but they would go off. They're old and were breaking.
We had a different kind of door that needed a different kind of detector. The installers came out and put it in quickly. There were four detectors that we decided to get rid of. We were able to do that. They were able to walk me through how to do that over the phone so I can do it without them coming out. They were good.

As long as it wasn't armed, it wouldn't go off, so ADT guided me through that. Also, my keypad showed, “Battery low, Battery low” so the gentleman came out and changed the battery. I couldn't find the box. He found it because he found the wiring. I walked all over this house and couldn't find it. It was under a staircase in the basement and they were behind some clothes that I had a pole there with clothes.
The lady that I talked to was wonderful and I was up and down three flights of stairs. I said, “I've been in this house 29 years. I've never seen a box.” ADT's technician looked in one of my pantries where I would have never looked in the corner of the wall and saw wires. He knew right away where it was, and we went down into the basement and found it. I was also able to get someone to come out here and change the battery on a motion detector that was very high in my foyer.

I called ADT one day and told them that a certain person is not supposed to be here, so they should look out if he comes to the house or the alarm goes off because of him. I knew that he would try to come back and get in here, that's why I called in Sunday and told ADT's rep about him. I asked the operator if he wanted his name and he told me no. The next day, I had a break-in and that person broke my back door as well as the glasses out of my window. The alarm went off, the patrol came here, and ADT dispatched their guys. But since they didn't have that information from their operator, they let the intruder into my home after he told them that he left his keys in here. I was puzzled because I didn't want him here, yet he was allowed to come into the home after I specifically called customer service about him.
The guy that was investigating it didn't do anything because he hadn’t had that information. But the police was called and they took a report for it. So now, have a back door with a piece of plywood over it. ADT's rep should have taken the right information and communicated that properly. They could have told the police that that person was not supposed to be here and they could have arrested him. But they didn’t, so they let him go.
I then called ADT and asked if they could help me out with the bills by lowering it. But they didn't do anything. They just started charging me the same fee. And every year, it would go up, until I talked to somebody because I caught it. I was going to tell them that I couldn't afford the services, like police coming out and the investigator coming. But they didn't want to lose me as a customer, so they said they were going to do lower the rate for me. But when I looked back at my records, nothing was done.

I've had ADT for 23 years. It was in our house when we purchased it. We did an upgrade maybe in '09, and then we added the glass break in 2018. My biggest thing is that I feel as though when they sell you the glass breaks and the carbon monoxide, they should go through instructions on how to replace batteries. The beeping can start in the middle of the night, and it's not easy because there's a process you have to go through in order to not cause an alarm event. I ended up with alarm events both times, and there's a process in which you enter your codes to clear the unit. They should go through that stuff with you. There should be like a cheat sheet.
It's frustrating. If it beeped, you can't leave it. You have to get up and change it then. It's really a chore if it happens in the middle of the night. I have rheumatoid arthritis. My body hurts. When a technician calls because you have an event, then you gotta explain everything, and sometimes people on the other end don't get it. Sometimes they're trying to get you to fix it, but it doesn't work. They end up sending over to technical support, and usually, they help, but it's a process.

We had ADT for a long time ago and then we stopped it. But we're both getting up in age and we have a very nice big house in the woods. So we decided to go back and start using ADT again. About four years ago, we updated our system and added some window breaking stuff. When I needed to talk to someone, I called the number that I was supposed to call, and there was always somebody there almost immediately to pick up. Several months ago, I had a beeping going on downstairs in my lower level. I thought it was a bad battery. I have a motion detector in my lower level. It didn't fix it because it wasn't my ADT. I have a carbon monoxide detector very close by, and that's what was beeping. I replaced that battery.
I've had very, very, very few issues with ADT. The last one we had was a big one. We were gone for like four days for a wedding, a wedding out of state. And on the very last day, we got a call from ADT, and it was like 11 o'clock at night or something, that our lower level outside door was open, that the alarm went off. So, I called my neighbor who is our go to person. And she looked out. She couldn't see anything. She called the police. The police came right over. They walked around the yard, looked around, couldn't find anything. Well, I said, “Okay. Let it go, and I'll check it.” So, I talked to ADT. And I said, “Let it go. I'll check it when I get home.”
What happened was, I have a lower level, a regular door, but then I have an aluminum storm door. And what happened was I, myself, had brought in some stuff through that door. And it was a load of like eight bags of salt for my softener. And I didn't tightly close the inside door, which has the alarm on it. But I locked the outside storm door. It's an aluminum storm door. I locked that one, so the police could not get in. But what happened was there was a huge wind that night that actually blew in through that storm door and pushed open the inside door that set the alarm off. So, it was totally my fault. I didn't close that door completely and lock it. But the process worked perfectly. The actual process is, if there was an issue and we weren't here, what would happen? Well, it happened. It was almost like a test, and it worked. I called my neighbor. She called the police and ADT or whatever. It all worked out fine.
I like the features of the system. When the guy came out, it's a little bit expensive. And I'm being honest with you on this whole thing. I didn't realize it was like a five-year deal or something on the equipment or something like that. We're both on fixed incomes and we've been looking at ways to lower some costs. I do notice that ADT is not cheap. But I'm happy with it.

They can walk me through the installation of a sensor so they're very user-friendly in terms of technology.
One of the drivers for me upgrading was the system has been in the house for 25 years and it was put in by a different security company who went out of business, when it changed over to ADT. Some of the sensors that have been on our windows for 25 years began to fail.

I have been an ADT customer for several years. The equipment continues to not work properly. For example, my alarm goes off even when the house is not armed, the glass break alarm continues to go off when no glass is broken and nothing in the house is dropped or broken, the alarm has gone off when I am in the house. The camera on the ceiling goes on when the alarm is in stay mode and is not supposed to do that, so ADT is recording me in my house when they are not supposed to be.
When I first joined ADT I had people come out and look at the equipment but they never figured out why things did not work properly at times. I have worked with tech support on the phone and nothing ever gets resolved. Today, a representative in monitoring called because the glass break alarm went off. I instructed her not to dispatch the police multiple times because my family lives a few house away and would come to my house to check that everything is as it is supposed to be.
When asked my password, I shared four possible passwords because I could not remember which one it was. The third one I stated was correct and the rep still dispatched the police anyway. ADT randomly chooses when they call me if the alarms go off, and there have been times when I never get a call after the alarm goes off.
When I came home from work today, there was not grace time to disarm the house. Instead the alarm went off immediately. I contacted ADT again after work and the supervisor lectured me making today's incident my fault. I could never recommend ADT as a monitoring company. Go elsewhere for good service and equipment that works.
We're genuinely sorry to hear about your unpleasant experience. This is not the level of service we aspire to offer, and we want you to know that we are committed to using this feedback to make meaningful improvements.

I would highly recommend ADT. Overall, it has been a great experience. They were the first provider I ran into, so I went with them. It was not a hard choice. I have spoken to many reps throughout the four years I've been with them and they have great customer care services. I have had a technician come into my home the first time and during the initial installation of the cameras and the Google Nest. I also have a Ring doorbell along with motion detectors. The instructions that you get whenever you have a malfunction on the alarm system is very user-friendly. I want to add a camera outdoors on one side of the house which I don't have eyes on.

I had a different security system that I wasn't happy with, which is why I went with ADT. I have been with them for at least 10 years, and the good part is that it works. I forgot I had the alarm on when I came back home, and it went off within five minutes. There were two officers there and they were asking for my security code, but I couldn't find anything. There were also a couple of smoke calls because I had somebody cooking who didn’t know how to open the windows and let the smoke out or turn on the vent. But I was home at the time it was happening. So, I'm happy about that.
I was halfway down to Georgia when I stopped at a wayside to sleep and realized I might not have set my alarm. I couldn’t get the app on my phone to work, so I called ADT. I told the rep that I only wanted the system locked, not unlocked, but she said she couldn’t do that. She offered to send something to me, but I told her I wouldn’t receive it for three weeks because it would go to my Wisconsin address and then back to Georgia. I wasn't happy with that situation, but it was my fault for not setting the alarm before I left.
Another issue I’ve had is with the batteries. When I had the system put in, I said I didn’t want to deal with batteries because if I’m gone six or seven months out of the year and wouldn’t be here to change them. But the system does have batteries, and when they go bad, they need to be replaced. I can’t even get the cover off to change them myself. For that reason, I’ve considered taking the system out of my house. I asked if someone could come out and change the batteries, but when I called ADT, they told me they didn't have anyone available for that. I had somebody come out one time because I have no idea how to do it. ADT's reps tried to walk me through it, but the battery will just go bad again, and I’m 83 years old. I’m not going to remember how to keep doing that every time it needs to be replaced.
I like the emergency part of the system, especially the smoke alarm and the temperature alerts when I’m not home. I don’t use the door security locks when I’m here. But if I go somewhere and I’m not going to be here, I like that I can lock it on the phone. I probably should get in the habit of setting it more often since I’m paying for it. I have large dogs, so I can’t use the motion detectors when they’re loose, but at night they’re secured, so I could set it then and just remember to turn it off in the morning.
I just told somebody about ADT because their furnace went out. I explained that if they had ADT and their temperature dropped below the level they set, ADT would have called them instead of them not knowing until someone checked the house. That conversation happened a couple of weeks ago, and they even called me afterward to ask what system I have.

I had some window sensors installed, and the ADT installer quoted me a price which they can do I was told. Then ADT called customer service call and said I owed more money, I explained to them that wasn't what I was quoted. They asked me, the customer, to try and reach the installer by cell phone, and I was like, "Why should I do that?" So I did, but it didn't help. I then contacted corporate, and it's been over a month with no progress. They did eventually take some money off and made me agree to a new 5-year contract. Case ID **.

I've had ADT for over 30 years and they've changed my phone and put the box with the lights up in the closet. I have the system set up so that when I go out or if I'm home, I can turn it on or off. ADT has been great. The reps get back to me in ample time, and everybody's been very nice. I called them yesterday to verify when my bill is due. Whenever I call ADT for service, they set me up a date, come out and do whatever needs to be done, and they are prompt and very friendly when they come. My sister also uses ADT. We're very pleased.

I've had ADT the last five years, then before that, it was another company, but originally, it was with ADT. In total, I've been with them for over 10 years. I feel good about the system, and I like the screen, being able to turn it on and off. It's also easy to communicate with them. Recently, the fire alarm went off, and they immediately sent me messages on my phone. They kept saying, "The alarm is off. What's going on?" I said, "Oh, I think it's my husband who's changing the battery. That's why it's going off. So, don't worry about it." ADT is a really good system. I trust it and I like it.

My brother and I were talking about ADT. His neighbor told him about it then he told me about it as well. I've also heard very positive feedback from other people that have it and I've not heard anything negative about it at all. When I bought the system in November, the sales rep was very knowledgeable and helpful. They guided me in the right direction of what I needed. The guy who came out, Brian, awesome. He was also very helpful. He told me what I needed but I couldn't afford it so we picked and chose what I had. I have the smoke alarm and the carbon monoxide sensor. I also have the little heat pad that I can hold in my hand if I should need help. I have the door camera as well and some doors where if they come open, the alarm will go off. I have already told family and friends about ADT. They've done for me very well and everybody's been very good. This is all new for me but they were very patient.

We got ADT when my daughter was 16 and everything went good with the installer. The system functions very well for the purposes that we've needed it for. It's also nice to tell me if I have a door open that I forgot to close 'cause it will blink at me and make me go, "Why are you blinking?" if I look at it. When we started, we were using cameras which we didn't need after my daughter moved out. We got it in security to be able to spy on my children, more or less, and we've adapted what we had it for. Now, we use it because we travel so it's nice to have that house piece.
My sense of security with ADT is very good. I know the system is gonna alert me if someone comes in the house 'cause I've accidentally set it off myself. I like that I have it set up that if it goes off, it alerts me, but it also alerts my neighbor. In situations where it's gone off, I've always gotten calls from my neighbor. It also shows up on our emails. All the pieces have worked and at this point, I'm blessed. No one has ever tried to break into my house, but I know if they do, they're gonna get the same response I got when I triggered the system accidentally. We've had ADT for about 7 years and it's been good. We've had one issue, but clearly, we still have it.

ADT is reliable. I've been with them for 15 years now. I also like their price. I have to fight with ADT once in a while ‘cause I got an old keyboard. I got the same big, ugly-looking sensors. It looks antiquated, almost, and that's my only problem. But, as long as it works, that's what matters. I had one issue when I replaced my windows. They lost two of the little magnets. But I called them, and they sent it to me. I hope their price does not go up. I pay almost $35. But I don't think I should have to pay a little bit more than that. But they are always on point. Any issues, they respond. If the alarm goes off, they call us. I'm happy with ADT.

ADT was referred by our Realtor and we went with it. After one service, I got another one for another property. The sales rep was very good. The lady was always up to date and within minutes of the information, so we don't have any problems. The service package is very good as well. We got as much as we could with the one that we needed. The only thing is we didn't get a discount on the other property because it's not in California. California has a deal.

About 14 years ago, we called ADT and had a gentleman come out and explain the system and what would be covered. A lot of the things would be our choice and what we would want covered. We signed up and ever since, we have been members. We are happy with the service. My husband will be 86 and I'm 84. When there are places where we have to have batteries changed but couldn't reach them, I've called and bingo, it was not a problem. They would send somebody out and do whatever they had to do. The technicians we've had here have been very personable, which always means a lot.
We were new to security systems and had no idea about them. But the rep explained the difference between a hard wired system and a battery-operated system which is what we have. With a hard wired system, the window will open from the bottom. If somebody is flexible or agile enough, they could open the window, slide it down from the top, and jump right in. We went with a battery-operated system because that would cover both the upper panes and the lower panes of the window. It has worked because fortunately, we have not had any bad experience since. We would recommend ADT to a friend. We're very happy with the experience we've had with them. It's nice to know that ADT is out there and is interested in their customers.

A young man from ADT knocked at my door, Baron, and said, "Would you be interested?" I just had something stolen off my porch, and I said, "How much?" He told me the price and it was very good. I said, "Yes. Now." Baron did a lot of the presentation, then he called someone and he came and did the rest of it. Installation was very quick and I love the package I got, except the battery wore down in the unit. They didn't leave a booklet on what to do, so I got online and I asked what to do when the battery drops. It said, "First thing you do is you unscrew the screw at the bottom of the unit." There is no screw at the bottom of the unit though.
Overall, the system is good except that we keep getting the notices, "Your unit is not turned on.” As soon as we're sure nobody's coming in or out of the house, we turn it on. My husband goes out of the house between 5:00 and 7:00 every morning, and he shuts it off then, but we had a situation wherein my husband opened the door without shutting the system off. Other than that, everything's fine. Once the ADT guys are here, they're really good. It's the call center that's bad.
