Very disappointed with ADT. Been with them for well over 10 years, moved with them into the new house two years ago... Currently going through divorce and need to move. Not sure where I am moving to, as I need to wait for ex to move so I can move within 30 minutes driving time for custody matters. Called to cancel today, and I'm being charge for a 3rd year of service on the new house, even though I've been under contract with them for over 10 years. Nice way to treat your loyal customers ADT, and your customer support staff needs training- Levi was a jerk. Needless to say, you will never regain my service or loyalty again.
Hello Scott- We appreciate you reaching back out to us. ADT is truly sorry to learn of your experience and personal circumstances surrounding your move. ADT does value your tenure with us. A new agreement is required for each individual location and billing may be accelerated for the remaining balance of contract, on all premature cancellations. ADT's relocation policy does stipulate that you have up to 24 months to take advantage of this benefit, however. If we may be of greater assistance reviewing this with you, please be encouraged to message us here. ~Tréchell

Do not go with ADT. They are the epitome of bait and switch con artists and are not the least bit transparent with their sales, service, or promises. After doing quite a bit of research into home security systems I was referred to ADT. After speaking with a sales representative and being completely upfront and honest on my end, the salesperson completely lied about the equipment that would be provided, the cost of the monitoring service, AND even the offer of the referral and gifts cards with their deal.
First off, they will charge you an upfront $99 to install, plus charge tax on that, even before you get a technician to conduct the review to set up the system. Then, the promise of equipment - they promise "pre-wired" door and window sensors, however this only actually applies if you have an existing security system and all sensors are wireless anyway, so really they offer 7 wireless sensors ($129 per additional sensor). They will bait you on by saying "a manager is on and will work with you to approve this" - don't believe it, as you'll never hear from that manager ever again, even when you have his/her manager id number.
Then there's the monitoring service - they offer $27.99/mo but that's only if you have a land phone line in your home. Including the warranty on the equipment that is supposed to be $36.99, but again they claim it's only if you have a landline. I know others who have the service without a landline paying $36.99 no problem, yet ADT claims they don't do that. Total garbage and lies. So now the monthly monitoring fee is up to $48.99 for wireless. However if you speak with their customer service, they will bring that down to $44.99/month and offer $300 in gift cards to make up the difference between the $48.99 and the $36.99 as promised. It's all such a set up.
The next lie is the $100 gifts cards. They offered: $100 to offset the installation (which installation cost $104.94 with tax so there's lie number 1), $300 to offset the $48.99 to $36.99 monthly monitoring service (as mentioned above), $100 referral for the person who referred us. Here's where the lies come in - they charge you $4.95 per card in "shipping and handling fees" as they say it's for the tracking to make sure it arrives properly. Furthermore, they reneged on the referral card as they said I had reached the maximum of $400 in gift cards. Lies, lies, and more lies.
DO NOT USE ADT to protect your home. There are better services out there who will be transparent from the start. I'm beyond disappointed in ADT - for a company that has been around as long as they have you would think they would want to keep a good name rather than tarnish it. Oh well. When my contract is up in 3 years, I'll be promptly cancelling and there will likely be better solutions on the market.

Signed a three year contract with ADT for protection of my home. Paid each month under the impression my home was protected. Alarm sounded, I was contacted as I wasn't home. I requested law enforcement to go to the premise. Long story short law enforcement was never contacted or dispatched as the contact ADT had listed did not cover my area. My home has been monitored for eight months without any law enforcement coverage or protection. In an actual emergency no law enforcement would have shown up.
I want out of the contract as I feel I have been paying for mere alarms on my doors which I could have supplied myself. What possible purpose does it serve to tell someone that is miles away their home that it is being broken into when nothing else would be done in the situation. I filed a complaint with the BBB and received a message back from ADT that is nothing but provable lies so as to hold me to my contract. I am going to continue to pursue this as I don't want my perfect credit ruined by this disreputable company and I know of many people that are under the impression ADT is protecting their home.
Hello Laura- We appreciate you reaching back out to us. We responded to you previously on Trustpilot.
ADT does apologize for your experience with the service. ADT has located your account and have verified there was a dispatch completed on 5/7/2018. On that date, ADT was not informed that the police would not respond to your location and did not receive any follow up from them. ADT provides a monitoring service and will alert all necessary parties regarding the signals we receive. However, we have no authority over the police and cannot speak to their procedures or actions after we notify them.

I've had ADT for 13 years, and I've been very satisfied with the service. I've gotten calls about alarms going off and their response time has been fairly good. ADT's representatives have all been very professional.

We've been with ADT for over 16 years and we've been very satisfied with their services. We have the sensors and the security pad. We also have yard signs and window stickers. We also expanded the system at one point and added two more window sensors, and they came right out for that. When we had some problems with some batteries, we called and they came right out as well. They've always been very responsive and the installers have always been great. They've been courteous and knowledgeable, and they've taken care of business.
A couple of times, there has been an accidental alarm and ADT has taken care of things. Their analysis of the alarm situation maximizes the possibility that an in-trouble homeowner is gonna be taken care of and minimizes the false alarms going to the police department. I think they are treading that line carefully and appropriately. All in all, I've been happy with ADT.

I have been with ADT for over 12 years now and their reps have been very good. I had to have a technician come here to replace one of our units that was malfunctioning and he was on time and dependable. Also, I like the system’s features very much. The only drawback, however, is, in our particular area, I had to have a landline to connect to ADT as we don't have Verizon or other providers that would use other sources. Still, I would tell a friend to definitely try ADT.

I have had ADT for years now. Recently, they had to alert me. We were not at home, we were going on vacation, and the side door was ajar. They called us and then we got somebody to come and take care of it. They also called the police so they were here. Their reps have been fine, and I'm completely satisfied with how it is going. I know they are not here to guard the house, but they just do the best they can. I would recommend them.

My house was broken into. I saw ADT on TV and I was able to customize my service package when I applied. One time, their guy came out to change one of the units on the window because it was going off by itself. He checked it, put the new one in, tested it again and hit the road. I’ve been with ADT for about 20 years and I’m happy with what they're doing. If a friend would ask me what company I would invite them to, I'd say, "ADT".

ADT appeared to set off a false alarm towards the last day of my test week 05/25/2018 at 8:15pm E.S.T. (to not get the police involved, since they would not be called this particular week) to scare me into more business and probably motivate the neighborhood into wanting a system from ADT. At my home the salesman was trying to sell me sensors for the basement windows, I only bought one for the interior basement door. The alarm went off only on that interior basement door. No signs of tampering! Even the neighborhood kids figured that scam out. In billing I am charged a half month bill. No one can justify along with a expected $52.99 advance bill. For almost 40 years I have known ADT has been the #1 security business in all of the U.S.A., why you doing this?
Reviewed May 26, 2018
I'm 70 years old and when we bought this house, I thought that a security system would be an important part of our home security situation. The previous owner said it had a security system, but I don't know who it was with. My wife and I discussed, and I said that if we're gonna get a security system, we should go with an established company that has a long track record and has been providing home security for a long time.
In that context, I called ADT to get them to come out and give us a quote about our system. I had a good interaction with their initial person and we talked about what modules to put on the system. Half is already wired for the doors, windows, and glass breakage. We then added a couple of sensors and snuck the other end on a camera. The technician who came out to install the system was very nice and worked quickly and efficiently. He went into the master bedroom closet where our master panel for all kinds of wiring stuff and the alarm system are, did whatever he did with the few switches and hooked up some extra wires.
I've been toying with the idea of getting another consulting app and another outdoor camera in the back, too, since we do have that "ring the doorbell and run teenage kinda stuff". If you got that, then you got video of them. You can track them down to the neighborhood association, and find their parents and mention to them that their kids are doing that at 2:00 in morning, and it's annoying.
We've never had any problems with our system, except on a false alarm. And this happens when we set it and we walk out, but we don't carry our remote key fob with us. But any time that has happened, I'd have a message on my phone saying that an alarm has been detected. And I don't know why any burglar would wanna stand there if they were to break in and that thing goes off because it's deafening. Then following the phone message, I'd get a phone call from a service or on monitoring person at ADT. So, I never feel like ADT is not paying attention.
In addition, because our alarm system is connected to a landline, it also has a wireless back-up. In case something happens, there's a battery in there that keeps itself charged and activates itself. So, if there's an electrical problem and then somebody breaks in, it still sends a signal to ADT. All in all, I'm perfectly satisfied with ADT. My rates are very fair and anytime I have a question or something, I'd call up or go online. Their website is good and easy to navigate for old people like me too. I would encourage everybody to pick ADT and have someone from them come out and give a proposal.

We had an alarm system put in the house and it was by the electric company, Edison. But they decided to get out of business and they referred us to ADT. It's been around 40 years now. Service-wise, everything has been fine. At the time that we purchased the system, ADT just continued to run through the whole thing. We upgraded our security panel and all the window and door sensors.
But I had one salesman at one point who we were gonna upgrade with for the windows where if you open them, the alarms would go off. He came in and he started to tell me that the first thing we were gonna do was discontinue the contract and write everything brand new. I threw him out because that was all he was doing. He was just trying to make his own commission by having me stop everything and then write the whole new contract. That issue with the salesperson was years ago and I doubt if the guy is still with the company.
The reason we upgraded was because every Wednesday at 6:04 in the morning, my unit would beep and beep. I'd have to go over and hit a couple of buttons until it stops. They sent somebody out and the guy checked some stuff and he said that that should fix it. But the next Wednesday, it just did the same thing. This went out for over a year but it wasn't that big of a deal because my wife gets up at 5 o'clock in the morning and goes to work. And I'm out walking the dogs so we're up anyway. As it turned out, there was some interruption and I had no service at all which I didn't know. And so every once in a while that I would open the door and the alarms would go off. I shut it off but I wouldn't get a phone call from ADT asking me if everything was okay.
I got suspicious about it and that was when I had the guy came out, checked it and that was when he told me that it was off. Another guy came in to reinstall everything. That was how I found out that a wire had broken loose inside the wall and ADT never noticed it. I was just kinda disappointed about that. Our payment automatically comes right out of the bank so we weren't paying attention. The system wasn't working but we didn't get broken into so we never thought anything about it. We just had that one beep every week. And I'd call and they'd go,"Yeah, yeah, yeah", and blow me off. I didn't make a big fuss about it though as it wasn't worth the hassle to sit there and try to determine what day it started, what day it didn't, why it went off service, who was at fault, who was I talking to and remember what time. I just let it go.
Other than that, the installer was great. He was one guy and he actually set up a table so he had everything right there at his disposal. I was really impressed with that rather than going out to his truck 10-15 times. My control board is if you walk in the house, there's an entryway and you turn down the hallway and it's right here. He took the old panel off, set this up, and walked me through everything and made sure everything was done and cleaned up. I kept telling him it was okay, that I would throw that, but he said he needed to make sure everything was cleaned up and ready to go. When he left, it actually looked cleaner than when he walked in.

To say that this has been a horrific experience is a severe understatement. I have NOTHING but trouble with them and I've only had them 5 months. That should tell you something. The installer busted a hole in the wall of the house I literally just moved into - plug it with jelly as if it wasn't a big deal. She didn't even apologize. The equipment was sold to me and here I am 5 months later having to replace sensors. The monitor always tells me something is open even when it isn't. I ordered a carbon meter as well only to learn that she actually installed a regular smoke detector... which was really bad since my furnace was leaking dangerous levels of CO2 into the living area of my elderly parents.
My father was having severe headaches - and what I thought was a carbon meter never went off... Fast forward, furnace replaced. That's when I discovered it was a smoke detector and not carbon - though I paid for carbon. I called to complain - on multiple occasions - because what I've already written doesn't even scratch the surface of the problems I have had. I tried to get out of my contract, but as I said earlier I'm only 5 months into it so they want to charge me 75% of the balance of the contract - which is more than $1000. Trust and believe when this contract period is over I will never contact them again. The absolute WORST experience of dealing with a business in my 42 years.
Thank you for reaching out, Melissa. We are truly sorry to learn of your sales and installation experience. We have located you ADT monitored account and show services were purchased and installed independently through Defenders Security INC Protect Your Home.
Defenders is an an ADT Authorized Dealer. As stated, dealers are independently owned and operated companies. They install and sell alarm equipment, but do not provide a monitoring service. They partner and contract with ADT to provide a monitoring service to their privately acquired customers and, in most instances, ADT purchases the contract from them after a pre-arranged set of time.
While we again apologize for your sales and installation experience with on their end, I do show that ADT did return to the site and installed a carbon monoxide detector for you at no cost. The smoke detector was also left in the home and relocated to a desirable area, with your approval.
I do not show that you have had multiple service appointments or continuous trouble with your security equipment. ADT was notified today of trouble you were having with the closet room door and serviced this location the same day, without delay. This trouble does appear to have been resolved.

We've had a really good experience with ADT and we're very proud to be a customer. We've been with them since 2005, after we've been burglarized, and ever since we got our little yard signs and window stickers, we haven't been bothered. During the installation of the system, the person who came was very congenial. He was knowledgeable and very good in what he was doing. He did the job like he's been doing it for a hundred years. I've only had one other person come out and that was to replace a defective sensor a few months ago and he was also a very good representative. He was very knowledgeable, knew exactly what the problem was and resolved it.
The whole system is overall excellent. It's a very minimalist system with a lot of sensors and that is all I need. I don't need to know who's coming and going and have videos of them and all. My daughter has all that on her system and, for me, it's a little overkill. ADT's response time has also been very good and timely.

After being convinced by a very pleasant salesperson to change our service from a local service to ADT, and being told it was the same type of payment structure; I tried to cancel my service because I'm moving, only to be told we are actually under a three year contract and will owe the balance. Since I'm not buying a new house or have a place I can transfer the service, four separate customer service people told me "tough luck" and I'll have to pay. "Customer Service" is hardly the correct term to use in this case.
They offered for me to pay the balance and they will credit it back within two years if I transfer to another home; but as I had explained to each person, that won't be possible as I'm not buying a new home. Again, they said, "too bad." And when I explained I would not ever even consider their service again if we couldn't come to some agreement or compromise, they said they didn't care and would send the bill to collections if I don't pay. Great. So I'll get the bill, pay it, send a copy of it along with a formal complaint to the State Attorney General, and will commit to being as loud a vocal critic of ADT as possible. All over $400. Yeah, that seems really worth it, doesn't ADT? Obviously you don't care about customers as you promote.
Hello Arthur- We appreciate you reaching out and reporting your concerns to us. ADT takes great pride in being transparent. This is why our terms of service are presented to all of our customers before installation is ever completed.
It is true that if you are under the initial term of your ADT agreement and cancel prematurely, your account would be subject to accelerated billing for a percentage of the remaining balance of contract. This information is referenced, in bold font, on the front page of all of our agreements. Still, we apologize for any trouble these terms have now caused you.
We certainly do understand that things happen in life, and that things do not always go according to plan. ADT's relocation policy was designed with this in mind.

ADT is great. I've been using them for years due to their great service. I own two homes and I've got two of their security packages. One is Pulse and the other isn't. The reps have been easy to work with. They contacted me immediately and it was normally because of a robotic vacuum cleaner going off. I forgot that it was on and I opened the garage door, and they contacted me to verify that it was not a bad guy. The IT guys have also come out here because there was something on the panel that needed to be updated and they took care of it.

Two weeks ago we purchased ADT Pulse home security cameras and have them installed. It's quite an investment but having a sixteen-year-old daughter I was excited to get this problem solved. I was promised the camera in the front would pick up any motion and recorded for 30 seconds. It did at first but then stopped. I called ADT and they sent a technician out.
The technician set here for an hour and tried to upsell me on a new camera system. After not giving in he finally said, "Okay I've been here an hour, I'll just replace the camera." I said "thank you. that's all I want". The camera he replaced the broken one with is actually WORSE!!! It will not record video at all unless you are 5 feet in front of it and waving a flag. I called ADT office and they said they would get a technician out Monday. Well this is Saturday morning and again, we have a stalker problem. I guess we will survive until Monday but on Monday I'm going to request they take all their equipment back with him and give me a full refund. I didn't sign on to be harassed by ADT as well.

Hello Cynthia- We appreciate you reaching out and reporting your concerns to us. We apologize for any trouble this matter has caused you.
It is true that if you are under the initial term of your ADT agreement and cancel prematurely, your account would be subject to accelerated billing for a percentage of the remaining balance of contract. This amount would vary depending on how much of the agreement you have fulfilled at your current location.
We certainly do understand that things happen in life and that things do not always go according to plan. ADT does have a relocation policy, which you are eligible for taking advantage of in the next 24 months, after you submit cancellation. For this reason, moving would not warrant release of contract.

Please be advised that, in the event of a burglary or tamper alarm, if the security system is disarmed, a "cancellation" signal may be sent to our monitoring center.

In instances where the system is disarmed before the burglary alarm is transmitted to our monitoring station, response will entirely be aborted.

Our door to the garage is sensitive to the code and if I try to get out from that door to the garage after keying my code, the siren goes on. Hence I was trying to get rid of this mode for this door and your official told my son that it will cost us close to $80. My son asked for the help on the internet and upon going through the manual on the internet he managed to bypass this code for this door till I get out to the garage and he succeeded. But since the code gets reinstated after 90 secs. I cannot use this door from the garage to get in. But I have decided to get in from our front door and by bypassing I can get out of the door that leads to garage. This is just fine as I am glad my son saved my 80 bucks. I hope i made my point clear to you. It is rather confusing if you do not understand my problem.

I have been an ADT customer this time for 2 years and am very pleased with the alarm system and customer service I have received from ADT. My only issue with ADT is that I continue to receive ads to start up service and I do not understand why I am on that mailing list... But that is ok... I just discard the emails and paper copies when received.

The tech that came was excellent and very professional. He listened to all our concerns and more than met our expectations. We would highly recommend ADT. The support service is excellent. It was easy to set up an appointment and we did not have to wait a long time for the tech to arrive. He also left the work area in clean condition. He also made some suggestions about transferring our service to our new home. He reminded us that we would qualify for $400.00 00 upon transfer of our service. Thanks for all the help in moving our service.

My service problem which I described to ADT dispatch included a communication issue which was considered complex.

We have had our ADT system for a rather short period of time. The system has worked well for us with no errors having arisen. The product works as advertised. One feature that we really like is that the control panel stops shrieking once you hit the first code number during the disarm process. Our previous system shrieked until all of the disarm code was entered plus having to hit off, which we do not have to do with this control panel.

ADT has been the ultimate sentinel, and if I ever cause the alarm to go off accidentally (like hitting the button on my key fob, for example), I get a call immediately, and they are ready to send the police if necessary.

Not happy when there is a power outage and we are away on vacation. I have no access on cell phone to ADT in my home or garage door until we return. I realize that ADT is still functional but I don’t like the fact that I don’t have access on my cell phone.
Hello Victor- We appreciate you reaching out to us and reporting your concerns. We can certainly understand the anxiety this type of scenario would cause.
We hope that this does not impact your perspective of the services that you receive from us, since this is beyond ADT's control.
While the security system will continue to run on the backup battery in the event of a power outage, most Pulse systems rely on the internet for this service to work. In the event of internet connection being disrupted, Pulse may go offline. When the internet restores, Pulse will attempt to come back online, but it sometimes needs an extra push in the form of a physical power cycle.
Thank you again for reaching out to us. ~Tréchell

Very efficient, pleasant and professional service. The ADT employees arrived as scheduled and worked quickly to upgrade my system. They were very knowledgeable and polite, and worked quickly to complete the installation, and explained fully and patiently all the functions of the new system. They took their time in making sure that all furnishings were put back to their original locations. A very satisfying experience with ADT.

No adverse issues; customer service is always prompt, professional and knowledgeable. Also, l really like the fact that if there’s a power outage, ADT is still online because of its independent backup battery. They offer HD cameras, WiFi boosters, and their technical support team is wonderful - they can and will walk you through any issues you may experience or they will promptly send someone to your location same day or next day. I think that’s awesome customer service. In addition, ADT offers a good value for home security services and I am so glad I chose them (I’ve been a customer since 2016) :-).
