    The Pulse apps continue to crash on either the iPhone or iPad. The major problem is a valid ID & PW are not accepted. Just a glitch I'm sure. Otherwise ADT is a pretty good system. I talked to an ADT representative on the phone and the fix was only momentary.

    I am a 78-year-old widow, who felt very uneasy at night when my husband first died 5 years ago. I immediately signed up with ADT, and I have slept comfortably safe ever since! It also feels great to come home from shopping or a weekend outing and know that no stranger has entered my home while I was away.

    We recently were awakened by the alarm going off and an error code on our display stated I needed to check my connection (your company should have the exact details as I was on the phone three times about it). We received no phone call from ADT, and spent the first night resetting the alarm. This occurred again, and I decided to call (approximately 1:00 AM) and was told there appeared to be an outage, and that ADT had a cell tower that was down. There was no backup plan to reroute my service through another tower and we spent about two days where we could not set our alarm. It continued to sound off constantly with little relief until I was able to get information on at least turning the volume down.

    I will say that those I spoke to on the phone were very helpful and courteous, but they could only assist in my turning the volume down as there was no way to shut the damn thing off until the cell tower with no backup could be repaired and service restored. SO, two things need to be addressed. One, allow for the unit to be shut off until a repair is made, and two, get a backup for when communications to a tower go down. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

    For $200 a quarter I think ADT should provide a little more pro-active customer service. Particularly considering all of the less expensive options available today.

    One option might be a check of system by ADT reaching out for a check of the system. How about a once a year email listing a couple of days that I can set the alarm off and you will respond. Or how about an email listing all contact info you have to check its accuracy.

    $800 a year is a lot of money and it would be nice to know that ADT is really out there listening. Customer service is everything. Prove that ADT is not just a buy a couple of pieces and stick them on your windows kind of company. Did I mention the $800 a quarter PLUS the $2300 I spent a couple of years ago to update the system to the latest and greatest.

    Hello Mayra- Thank you for reaching out. We show that your cancellation request was received on July 4th. All dealer account cancellations require 30 days to process.

    An ADT Authorized Dealer is an independently owned and operated company. They install and sell alarm equipment, but do not provide a monitoring service. They partner and contract with us to provide a monitoring service to their privately acquired customers and, in some instances, ADT purchases the contract from them after a pre-arranged set of time.

    For these reasons, ADT will be left with a $0.00 balance when the account cancels. All remaining credits or fess would be initiated by your installing company.

    ADT contacts me when there's an issue with the alarm and everything else. When the alarm goes off, they usually call us to see why it took so long for us to get to the panels to disarm and we tell them, and they were very friendly. They're also very knowledgeable. However I had an issue with the repair person they sent out. What happened was, AT&T came here because I have internet issue and they were telling me that ADT is the reason why our system is slow. I said that's not true, but I'm no technician. And then the guy from AT&T was cutting some wires and cut off a wire that belongs to ADT.

    So I called ADT to see what's wrong with my security. ADT sent this older gentleman and I explained to him what happened. He got very upset and ticked off. He still came out here and he was having one of those tantrums. Then he told me that for him to run the wire and fix everything, he needs two technicians and it was going to cost me over $500. I got upset when he told me that. So I called the technician back from the AT&T. He came and repaired the whole thing and didn't have to run the whole wire like the older gentleman said. But other than that my experience with ADT has been good and I will recommend them. ADT does free installation and gives some free items when you order as well, which is nice. I also had ADT back when I used to live in Illinois.

It would be nice to upgrade my system but I don’t have the fund as I’m a retired senior and I don’t want to upgrade my price though. But overall, I've had a very good experience with them.

    We've had ADT for almost 3 years (contract ending soon - thank god), and while they charge sort of the going rate for security systems we will be looking for a new vendor soon. Our house flooded in February and they had to shut off the main breaker to our house for safety reasons. Since then our security system hasn't worked, and ADT knows about it, but we're still paying for it. Customer service has called us to try and fix the problem (by setting off the alarm while our toddler sleeps) and when I asked if we could do it again at a more convenient, they said they would call us. Have yet to hear from them. Am still paying the $64 per month for a lovely little keypad in my laundry room. Their customer service sucks, and the only time they've ever called us is to tell us that our power has been out - which is great, but our nest told us the same thing, via text message.

    I just got a cold call from a person saying they were from ADT. Started by "being surprised" that we did not know He was coming. Said he had a new homeowners' deal. He showed up at 18:00, dinner time. The five minutes turned into nearly 20. We were cooking dinner which we did tell him repeatedly. If I signed tonight the equipment would be free, otherwise it will be $1,800. Monitoring prices were between $35 and over $50. I told him I did not make decisions this way and did not like compliance selling tactics. He actually got offended. I showed him the door and threw away the paper he gave me.

    I live in a tough area where I don’t have good cellular connection so my system is down right now until it gets repaired. I didn’t deal with ADT corporate but with a local company that installed it. The service people had been excellent but right from the start I told them I live in a dead zone. I don’t get cellular but they insisted the system is stronger than a cellphone. Now it’s going to require cutting into walls, going up the outside of my house where it’s not permitted since I’m in a town home community. It’s discouraging because they didn’t listen to me in the beginning. Now that the 90 days is up, I’m with ADT corporate and they are working on it because the local Protect Your Home Defenders really didn’t do me justice.

    We had ADT for a while from 2009 to about 2012. But then somebody hacked into your system and set off our alarm in the middle of the night. We cut them off and got them back last summer. They really couldn’t do anything about the hacking. ADT was quite easy to have at that time but the person who hacked us was an executive with the high tech company. He hacked our VDR, our bank accounts but he didn’t steal from us. But he would pay our mortgage two or three extra times and empty out our accounts. It was quite dreadful.

    With our current system, it works a lot better and more intuitive to use. They’re simple and worked the first time you try it. But we have to be careful before we arm the system because sometimes it will whack our sensor and set off the alarm. It’s sensitive but other than that, it’s fine. I like the ease that we have in setting the alarm and turning it off and also changing the code anytime we want. The interactions we had with their team were very positive and straightforward. Their technicians were also great. We saw him twice because something got stuck on the front door. He came and figured out what was wrong and it was quite a simple thing.

    We also had a problem last Thanksgiving where I left the turkey carcass in a lot of water to make stock and turned it on high then forgot about it and went out for some movies. ADT coordinated with our local fire department and everything went very smoothly. They made sure that they knew that we have cats in the house and our cats were fine. It was just smoke, not fire but it was very scary to come home from the movies and find three fire trucks in the street. ADT is not cheap but you get what you pay for and it’s monitored.

    Hello Jeff- Thank you for reaching out! We are troubled to learn of your experience.

    In regard to your question about charges for a service call. After the initial 90 day manufacturer's warranty, the equipment would be covered by the maintenance agreement, provided you have signed up for it on your account. I do not show that your account has a maintenance agreement for your system and if you require a service call you would be charged for labor and material.

    That said, I see that you recently spoke with our loyalty team and that they were able to offer a heftily discounted service appointment, that was completed on July 12th. We hope that this resolved the issue.

    I had been a loyal customer of ADT for 5 years when I had to cancel my service due to financial circumstances that forced me to sell my home. I had to move in with a friend so I did not have the option of transferring my service. I had already transferred my services once with ADT after my job relocated me to a different city but they made me sign a new 3 year contract even though I only had one year left on my current contract. I really wasn't happy about this but they gave me no other choice. When I called this time to cancel my services I was told I would be held to the contract and that no one in the company could do anything about it. I now owe them for one more year of service even though I have no way of using their services.

    I understand I have a contract but to be told that no one in the company could do anything about it just sounds like what their customer service associates are trained to say in a situation like mine. I contacted them again to further discuss my circumstances but no one responded. My first mistake was signing a 3 year contract. Is that common practice in this industry? I doubt it. And probably less common to make you sign a new 3 year contract when you transfer services. Never again will I do business with a company that operates in this manner.

    We had previously used ADT in FL, so when we were relocating for one year to IL we called them. It was a rental home so we acquired the most basic, cheapest method of security available. We stressed it was for one year. We told to disconnect after the year and find we had signed a 3 year contract (with the salesman pushing us to sign that day to get the best deal).

    Are we at fault for not correctly reviewing? Of course! But not one time did he tell us it was for three years! They have offered us a discount on the remaining two years - for a service we won't be using. I have emailed corporate three times, receiving a call twice, only to be told they stand by their decision. The decision to lose us as future customers is costing them $300. I can't understand why they would so willing lose us over this amount of money - we have always been good customers and prompt with payment. They basically don't care that we were misled - they actually appeared to not be all that surprised! I'm sure we're not the first people this has happened to...

I'm hoping this review finds someone in the company who is able to see my refund through.

    Additionally, the policy which requires the customer to start a new 3-year contract each time you have the system re-installed is unreasonable. This policy makes it extremely difficult for anyone having a career which requires them to move regularly to ever get out from under these contracts. This is simply a customer retention technique which needs changing.

    I have had nothing but trouble with the ADT "lifestyle module" TSSC system. In the 7 months we have had the alarm system in the house I have lost count as to the number of times we have had to call a technician out to work on it. Our home is more than 5,000 square feet. So the little beep that the system made when the "alarm" went off was so quiet we thought it was the microwave oven. We have been through at least 3 keypads because they keep triggering an alert in the system. Every tech that comes to the house always says that they hate the system because it has so many bugs, yet as it is ADT's proprietary system they are forced to push it as the best system to get, even though they know it's full of problems. Despite multiple phone calls to customer service, loyalty department and countless technical support and management agents we still have an alarm system that is unreliable.

    Prior to this experience I had a wonderful opinion of ADT. Our previous home had an old system but it worked without fail. I never had to call ADT about that system except for the day when they activated service. My most recent conversation with the sales department and loyalty department informed me my only option would be to purchase a more expensive system as they would need to change out several sensors to switch from the TSSC system to something more reliable. The representative I spoke with at the loyalty department said she would send a tech out to my house at no charge to look at my keypad. This will be the 4th time it has been replaced in 7 months of service. They know this is a defective product, yet are unwilling to do anything to address the issue. Replacing the keypad for the 4th time won't fix anything.

    My opinion of this company is forever changed. They don't care about my family, or my family's well being. They just care about money and their bottom line. When shopping for an alarm system do yourself a favor. Find a reputable local company that may actually care about you instead of a huge national brand that only considers you a number.

    I had called up regarding why my system did not stay on when the power went out. The women on the phone said they will send someone out to look at it. They did not warn of any charges and two weeks later I get an email regarding a charge to my account for 180. When I called up they refused to waive the service fees because the backup battery was supposedly bad.

    The system never warned me of a low battery otherwise I would have known. The backup battery never worked properly since I got the system. We did not have many power outages to prove it. During an outage I called ADT to try and figure out the issue. They never mentioned of any service fees or I would have declined. I would have figured out what battery I needed on my own and replace it myself if I would have known to see if that was the issue. The contract does not state the service costs and they did not mention any costs on the phone. I do not understand how a company would not warn their customers there would be a service fee. The technician said they might charge us and if they do to call up and the fees would be waived. Nope they would not waive the fees.

    I do not know any company who would come out to fix their equipment and charge a fee without warning you of the costs. From what I have learned about businesses is that a company who is going to charge you has to tell you up front. They just charge me a random amount without knowing. I have had them service things in the past and never were charged, so why now and why without warning. When my contract is up I will be switching.

They are more than willing to send out a service repairman at $25/visit. This whole system needs to be overhauled or I feel I should be allowed to cancel the agreement and find another provider.

    Hello Tom- Thank you for reaching out! We apologize for the trouble that you have experienced with the system since your dealer installation.

    I show that, since June of last year, ADT has visited the location a total of 3 times. All times, service charges were waived or not applicable.

    Please be advised that, since your system communicates through a landline, you may sometimes experience communication failure if the system is trying to transmit a signal while the phone is in use. I show that your communication failure was quickly resolved with a manual test.

    If you have additional questions regarding this matter, please give us a call at 1-800-238-2727. Thank you! ~Trèchell

    We have ADT motion sensor around the entry and into the room, and a medical alert. Their installation team was great and whenever the alarm goes off, their reps call me quickly. ADT is reliable and so far, they’ve taken care of everything we have. Our experience with them has been great but we hardly ever use it because we’re always home now. One thing that might be nice and I know they used to do this is, whenever there’s an emergency or alert, light flashes so the emergency people can see it and know where to come.

    Original Review: July 1, 2017

    I have had ADT Home Security for over 10 years. I have had no false alarms or complaints for any of those years. Now, I am selling my house and moving to a new state. My annual payment ($493.49) was due in May 2017. Before my due date, I called to cancel my service. (Telephone is the only way ADT will let you cancel.) I guess it would be too simple to do it online. I was told by customer service, that everything would be taken care of, and I had a zero balance. In June, I received a "Past Due" notice because my payment was not received in May.

    I called again and ADT had no record of me cancelling my account. This time, I got a confirmation number. (Should have gotten that the first call.) Again, I was told everything was being taken care of. Now, I am getting "Past Due" notices for $88.62. I do not know where that figure came from. The left hand does not know what the right hand is doing. I closed my account before the annual payment was due. I owe ADT nothing. That is the thanks I get for over 10 years of loyalty and on time payments. I am going to turn this over to the Texas Attorney General.

    Do not buy this service if you do not plan on being a very long-term customer! Despite what everyone you speak to will tell you, you cannot cancel without a huge cancellation fee. I purchased a plan that I knew was going to be short term so the fact that representatives tell you that you are free to cancel at any time was a big selling point... until I cancelled and they charged me a $1,000 fee. When I complained about the false advertising, I was told that they only claimed I could cancel, they never claimed they wouldn't charge me $1,000 when I did cancel. The contract they give you to sign (telling you it is an agreement to pay for the initial installation) contains fine print that tells you they will charge you a fee if you cancel within three years and apparently they do not consider $1,000 to be an unreasonable cancellation fee. I will never again do business with ADT.

    I was going on vacation and wanted to feel secure, so I decided to get the security system by ADT. My service package includes the motion detector and keypad. I've had a couple of problems and I had to get somebody out to fix the system battery. I had a battery replaced which costs more than I thought it should for a technician to come out and replace a battery. The cost was real prohibitive as far as I was concerned and I thought that wasn't real good. Then I had a telephone line that had a problem and I got a different provider come out and get it back online. But other than that, I'm happy with the system.

    A couple of people who we knew in the neighborhood had ADT and there had been a couple of house break-ins so we went with ADT, too. Their reps have been very effective. They came out and did everything. They installed the system and put the signal receptors at all the doors and windows and tested it. I've had them for more than 10 years and their service has been fine.

    Recently though, we had a little incident where our alarm was showing a little battery signal. They told us that we needed to replace the battery so we went out, bought a battery and replaced it, but it didn't cure the system. A technician came out to see what was wrong and apparently there was an in-line fuse that was giving a false reading to the system. When he told us that, we were a little shocked because I had thrown the other battery away and spent the money on this battery. The other battery was probably still good if it was a fuse in-line.

    And it was a little disappointing that they didn't respond. We went through five to seven days having the alarm go off every four hours even when we were trying to sleep. They could have come out to the house sooner or told us that it could have been an in-line fuse. When they knew that it had been days, they couldn't get out until two or three days later. Nevertheless, that experience is not going to cause us to switch services. ADT's system works as advertised and we've been happy with it. I just wished that they had done something sooner about our problem.

My husband is 90, I’m 89 and we don’t want anything complicated that’s why we stayed with ADT. A woman of my age, sometimes I forget. I'm hanging in there and I wouldn't change it for anything. With ADT, I feel secure. I just go on with my life and never had to concern myself about the people breaking in. That’s the way I felt in New York and I have the same attitude down here. The system itself is very smart and simple. I like that when you're leaving, you put the alarm on, you walk out and just press one button.

    I’ve also never had a problem with their technicians in all these years. Whenever I need something done, I call and they sent somebody. They have taken good care of me that's why I'm with them this long. When we've accidentally set the system off a couple of times, they responded immediately.

    I’ve had ADT ever since I bought my home and I love it. I had to get a license for the police and the fire department to come. Just in case the alarm goes off, ADT allows me two times free and then I have to pay a bit more. It works whenever there’s anything open that shouldn’t be open, then they call me on the phone just in case something does happen. And if I pushed the wrong button, I can give them my password. When they came in for the installation, my son said they just put it in and then left. But it had the code on it that I can use in case I don’t have my key with me. My son also had to go to work so I know the installation didn’t take too long. My son’s a fireman so he also double-checked it. I like the system because I feel safe when I’m away from home. I have my two sons who come over just in case I’m out of town.

    People on the phone have been very courteous and helpful. They’re intelligent enough to know the product and they seem to know what they’re talking about when I refer to something. At one time, I wanted to update it because of new technology out there, where you don’t have to have a landline, but I haven’t even found enough information about that yet. But I’ve been here since 2006, and in the eighth year, they updated it and gave me a new box and they were very careful. I’ve also got their decals on the windows and stuff. But recently they told me that I shouldn’t put them on the window because the thieves know how to do things according to what’s out there and advertising so it doesn’t do much good. Then somebody came and took my sign so it can’t be that bad. ADT is very good and I'll always keep them. If anyone needs security in their home, ADT is the one to pick.

    I ordered ADT over the phone. The salesperson was nice and appeared to be knowledgeable. I was very clear that I was shopping for the best price and the most secure alarm system. Note that I have owned several houses, so I knew exactly what I wanted. I wanted one outdoor camera, 5 contacts, 2 motion sensors and glass break. The sales person quoted me a price which I told her immediately was MUCH higher than what Guardian had quoted me. She then adjusted her quote and stated that she could provide ALL the same services as Guardian with the exception of two cameras. She could only provide one outdoor camera.

    The day of the installation the technician (who was very nice and professional) arrived with one indoor camera, 5 contacts, no glass break, and one motion sensor. After two hours of going back and forth with the VERY rude customer service agents. I was told I would have to pay $200 more than the price quoted to get the same services that Guardian was offering!

    Don't be fooled by the price match, it's a scam to get ADT in your home and you on the hook for a 3 year contract! ADT sales agents are flat out liars and their customer service agents, especially Niq, are rude and unhelpful! As of today, I have NO camera and no glass break and the only way I am getting it is if I pay them hundreds of dollars.

The interaction with the installation team was very good. I got the general system and I've had it since. The only issue that I have is that every six months or so, the price keeps going up a little bit. Sooner or later, it would be priced where the average person won't be able to afford it.

    On the other hand, the quality of the equipment is good. I had someone working at my house about a month ago. They had left and so I locked up and secured the house and went back to my job. Then ADT called and said that someone was breaking into my home. I told them not to send the sheriff at that time because maybe the workman had come back and had turned a knob or something else.

    I had the impression that ADT would be the best. It gives me a certain amount of comfort and it did all of the things that we needed to be done. The security equipment seems to be pretty sound. Also, we have two door openings and then the little button for safety. We've had their maintenance crew come out and fix things. And they are all very polite and confident. Overall, ADT is a pretty good deal. It was easy to get started and to keep going. And it makes us comfortable that if somebody or some animal opened the door at night, we would know.

    The installer did a great job explaining each product available to me. He was very thorough and friendly. The only thing that was not explained was when I selected my billing date being told that the first bill was going to include a prorated month and a month ahead of time. But that was figured out really quick by me creating a login to ADT's website and looking at my bill. Otherwise it was all great!

I didn't want another monthly expense but ADT from the initial call for help to the installer taking his time and explaining each detail on a steamy hot day really eased my mind and made me feel whole again.

    When I moved in this house in 2009, I was shopping around for different security systems in the neighborhood and someone told me to go to ADT. I've been with them for seven years now and they've been wonderful. I got the camera system on the inside where I have one camera upstairs and one downstairs. But because the neighborhood is getting kind of screwed up I'm thinking about adding one to the outside. The installers who came out were great. When they came in, they put in a rudder to run the cameras and were professional.

    Overall, the service I got from ADT has been excellent and I never had a problem with anybody getting anything done. If something goes wrong, their reps were right on it. And when I call them, they give me good educational answers and no BS involved. They have very good support and a good system. I'll be with ADT until the day I die.

    For years I've had ADT in my house. It's just the basic package with the motion and fire alarms, and I feel safer with the system in my house. They've been very good too. I had a problem paying the bills. It was a little high and I told them I really couldn't afford it but I didn't wanna give it up because I liked my alarm and then they lowered it for me. If any problems arose, they’ve always been there for me. When I call them, they come pretty fast. It's usually within a day or two after, and sometimes, they even get here earlier. I don’t have any problems with them, and they just come over, do their job and go. Last time, the keypad wasn’t working properly and the alarm needed batteries. It had to be reprogrammed and they fixed it right away. They were very nice, polite and helpful. I would recommend them.

    I was having problems with my Hallway motion detector and after having to pay a $50.00 dollar fine for a false alarm it was time to call ADT. The Tech was great. My problem with ADT is the billing department. It should not take over 4 weeks for a check to clear. I gave them a check on May the 26th and today is the 23rd of June and it still has not cleared. I think that this is unacceptable. It's a big deal because I am in the process of changing banks and I can't do so until this check clears my bank. I hope that I don't have to call ADT again because it will have to be a cash payment. Never again will I pay by check. I am also getting a bill stating that I still owe for ADT coming out on the 26th of May.

    I’ve been with ADT for a long time. I’ve got an old system in my house that you wouldn’t recognize it. I called customer service ten years ago when I changed my phone number for the police department to contact. And within the past six months, I was here and all of a sudden the alarm started to go off so I called ADT's customer service to know what happened and what I have to do to fix it and it was very helpful. I have the basic features. Somebody breaks in, the alarm goes off and somebody calls the police from ADT. I have a button that if I need help, I can press to get the police and to get the fire. Also, I’d love to be able to monitor from afar, but I’m not willing to pay for it.

    The real test for ADT’s security equipment is if we ever get a break in. We’ll see how well it works, the quality of the system and the response from the people at the other end. I set the alarm from time to time when I am going to be alone but I do take off the motion alarm for where I’m going to be. One time, I completely forgot about it and went where the alarm was set for everything and then it went off. That’s what it’s supposed to do. But I don’t know how long that alarm would have to go off before somebody would call. They said they’d call us first and then call the police. I’ve never let anything go that long. I have a little dog. It bothers her ears as badly as it bothers mine. Hopefully I’ll never need to know. It’s like a homeowner’s insurance or auto insurance. You pray your house never burns down or you never have an accident. But you get it because it’s a backup. Other than the rates continually going up, I’m very happy with it.

    On the 31st of last month I called your service department concerning my system battery. I was getting a 'Bat' icon on my unit. The service person I talked to finally got around to telling me I needed a new battery. After determining that ADT would replace the battery I asked that she do that. She explained that the 'shipping' would take 7 to 8 days. I told her fine and to ship the battery. I got the impression she was attempting to get me to purchase the battery from a third party as she told me that I probably could get it quicker than from ADT.

    After waiting 8+ days for the battery to show up I again called your service department on or about the 8th of June. The lady said that yes the request for a replacement battery had been sent on 31 May and that she would follow up on the order. When the battery had yet to arrive by the 16th (17 days after my initial call) I again called the service department. The lady again acknowledge the request had been sent. This time though she said she would expedite the re-order at no cost to me and that I should receive the battery in two business days.

    Later that day I received an email showing the purchase order with the order number. This was the FIRST such notification that I received. I think the ball was dropped somewhere in your shipping department. At any rate I replaced the old battery some 20 days after first notifying you. I do believe that is an excessive amount of time and not up to your normal fine standards of service support.

    I'm a new home buyer and I was looking for a security system to keep my family safe. My parents had an ADT system and they never had a problem so I went with confidence. On 6-6-17 approximately 2:30 am my house was broken into, woke up to my alarm system going off. Still in a daze I go to turn the alarm off and find my door open. I did not receive a call from an ADT person nor was our local law enforcement notified. Come to find out my system got disconnected by a storm of some sort sometime in March.

    First they sent a Tech out to see when it was disconnected. He himself said he could not tell when. Now they're saying that an alert should have popped up on the website where I go to pay my bill each month. I think I would notice a big red alert sign. My wife called to get answers and they hung up on her. I cant get reimbursed or compensated for their mistake. They know I'm under contract so I cant go no where so they're sticking me. I'm trying to get this out so your family is safe and you're able to see my mistake and not make the same.

No response was made, but rather a small balance, which is more than offset by what I overpaid, was sent to a collection agency, which has violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

    I signed up with ADT Security in 2015 because at the time I was living alone with my daughter in Dumfries, VA. We were awaiting for my significant other to return from Korea with the US Army. In 2016, we relocated to Loudoun County and the home already had an existing alarm system. I called to cancel ADT services and was told that I had another year left on my contract. I could move the services or pay $700+ as an early termination fee. I did not have that money at the time.

    Fast forward another year, my significant other and I have gotten engaged and he PCS'd to Colorado. I call back to ADT because now I know my contract is up, my fiancé and I are living together and I feel safe. I was told by the rep, Tevin, my contract is not up until 2018. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS! The sales rep NEVER explained the length of the contract. I know it is up to me as the consumer to ask and read the fine print. As a renter, I would never signed a contract for three years. When I asked to speak to a manager, Tevin, told me that she is the highest authority in ADT and she could direct me to the salesperson that I worked with. Clearly, she is not the highest authority and speaking to the salesperson will not help just an attempt to pass the buck.

    Now, I will fax my fiancé's orders to see if they will waive the cancellation fee. However, that may not work because we haven't gotten married yet. I have not used ADT since May 2016. I will communicate this to as many online communities as possible to not enroll in ADT's services until they are clear and can see the length of the contract and the cost to get out of the contract is twice as much as the service charge!

    Hello Veronica- We're sorry for any trouble that you may have experienced with ADT Pulse.

    The trouble with the application, outlined as starting on June 15th, was a known error. We thank you for your patience as we add additional capacity to support the significant increase in usage we experienced with our latest ADT Pulse app.

    With the greater ease of use and functionality introduced within the new app, the response has been tremendous. While we added additional capacity to handle the increase in volume that we anticipated, what we actually saw was more than a tenfold increase in usage of the Pulse app.

    As a result, at intermittent times while logging into the Pulse mobile app, you may be required to wait a few minutes and reattempt a login. This inconvenience should diminish over the next few days as we adjust the capacity to ensure a seamless customer experience.

    This issue only impacts use of the mobile app and full functionality is still available using the Pulse web portal by visiting https://portal.adtpulse.com/ .

    Please rest assured that your system is functioning properly and being monitored by ADT, and no action is required on your part.

    If you are experiencing performance issues with your Pulse app, we suggest logging out of the mobile app or portal and logging back in. Our teams are aware of the intermittent issues and are working to resolve them. We take this issue very seriously and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.

    Please rest assured that your system is functioning properly and being monitored by ADT, and no action is required on your part. Again, we apologize for any inconvenience. ~Trèchell

    Although we're satisfied with the protection and customer service, it's always been a huge problem with the system locking up our landline service during an event or when it's merely transmitting to the ADT computerized system. When this happens, family, friends, and current and prospective business clients hear a fax tone-like squeal and hang up. While family and friends usually will try to complete the call several times, some prospective clients are lost for good. We never know when the system will lock up the landline. Yes, we can upgrade to a new, wireless system but we don't have the budget for it.

    I set up an appointment with ADT to upgrade my system and sign a contract for three years at a lower monthly rate. ADT called three times to confirm this appointment. On the day of the appointment, nobody showed up from ADT. I called ADT and they said that they had mistakenly ordered service from a different state and had canceled the appointment. I explained that nobody had notified me of this and that I had wasted a day waiting for a service tech who never showed. The ADT rep said somebody would call me back to discuss the issue. Nobody did. I called back twice and complained again. Both times, I was placed on hold for 10-15 minutes. In the end, ADT offered to reschedule and give me one month free service for my inconvenience. That was not enough for the inconvenience and exceptionally poor customer service.

    I have been a loyal ADT customer for about 10 years. I am switching to a company that has lower rates and is more responsive to my service requirements. However, ADT also has a 30 day cancellation notice policy, which they still insisted upon in order to get another monthly payment out of me. The ADT rep even had the nerve to say that I would be dissatisfied with the other service provider and would be back. With that arrogant attitude, I fail to see how ADT has any customers in a very competitive market. After this bad experience, I will not recommend ADT to anybody, residential or business.

    After some initial issues (they ordered the wrong parts) I was relatively happy. Had a full system including a camera setup for driveway. I was told that they would store 1 week worth of video footage in case there were any issues. All I'd need to do is login to Alarm.com to retrieve the footage. I'd had some issues with my camera which I troubleshot then called technical support because we had another issue (the feed was only available on my cell phone and not my girlfriend's). They said we should reinstall the app and it should work. It didn't but we figured at least the feed works on my cell phone.

    Last night, my truck was vandalized. After having issues retrieving the footage to file a police report, I was told by tech support that my camera's setting were set up to only record in case the alarm was triggered. Basically, someone would need to break into my home, then once the alarm was going off, go to my driveway to vandalize my truck for the video to be recorded. Less than impressed, I called support/customer service again asking that I get a call back from the cancellation department since I was told by my sales rep (in writing and I have the email) that I could cancel if the system doesn't work properly within the first 6 months and get a full reimbursement.

    I just received a call from the cancellation department saying that it will cost me $1,600 to cancel unless they need to send a technician 3 times and still can't resolve the issue. More infuriatingly, I was told that there wasn't an issue with the initial setup and that Alarm.com is in place so that I can control my settings myself. Essentially, my camera not being set to record my driveway (as I was told it would be) is my responsibility because I didn't go change the settings assuming what I was told was correct in that the footage would be recorded for 1 week. The notion that setting up a camera to record a driveway, telling me that it would store 1 week of footage, but then in reality someone would need to trigger the alarm for it to record is somehow my fault for not changing my settings is insulting. Beware.

    ADT Service is above all others. The technician was the best most knowledgeable technician I have dealt with. I would always recommend ADT above any other alarm service. They are not always the cheapest alarm service, but you get what you pay for. I trust ADT to be there for me.

    Pleased with alarm system. Feel secure in my home. Comfort in knowing when I travel I do not have to ask someone to check on my home. My family is pleased that I have installed an alarm system. I would encourage older individuals who live alone to have an alarm system installed because it does give one a peace of mind.

    In 1987 I had a burglary at my house. I spoke with my neighbor across the street. She said that, after she had had a burglary, she had investigated every alarm company and ADT was clearly the best. Knowing how thorough she was, I was absolutely certain that she really had investigated each and every alarm company; so I had an ADT system put into my house. Around 2002 my fiancé had a burglary; so I had an ADT system put into her house. We were married in 2004. It is now 2017. During the last 30 years when we have had ADT protection, neither of us have had a break-in or a burglary. Our ADT system has rarely needed service; but when it did need service, the service was prompt and thorough. On a few occasions I have had questions about our ADT system. When I called, I always got the help I wanted promptly. We are completely satisfied with ADT.

    Twice our friend and "cat-sitter" had inadvertently set off the emergency alarm and twice the police response was fast (arrived before she could figure out what she did wrong), professional, polite and reassuring. ADT followed up with phone calls. She was using the key fob. Just a suggestion: could the key fob be designed to reduce the amount of false alarms; e.g.: if the "panic button" needed to be hit twice in rapid succession to engage? That bright red emergency button, easy to see, is also easy to mistake if one is in a hurry and has her hands full! Thank you for great service!
