    My experience was very positive from start to finish. The technician was punctual, respectful, and extremely professional. He explained everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made sure the installation was done properly. I never felt rushed or pressured. The entire process was smooth and organized, and I feel confident in the service I received. I would absolutely recommend them to friends and family.

    I was impressed by the salesperson who was respectful and informed. However he did mention that installation would last about one hour. In fact it lasted four hours and I am unclear if all that I had requested was installed eg indoor camera, water sensors.

    I have been a Vivint customer for 10 years and decided- since we are fans of the equipment and service- to use them for an upcoming move to a new home. The setup process for my new move could not have been any MORE complicated. I spent hours on the phone with customer service, countless pricing issues where each time I was sent paperwork to sign there was an error. Day of installation, the install tech- Chad was great and so knowledgeable. But we again had to spend probably 3 hours on the phone with issues with Vivint. I almost walked away from the entire deal. I would not use them again.

    Our Salesperson (Saxon) charged us $4500 dollars for our security equipment and monitoring services. Saxon never gave us a breakdown of how much each item cost. I didn't know until I requested a breakdown of the cost of system. When I expressed my concerns over the total cost of equipment which I'm locked in for five years, I felt mislead by the salesperson. My spouse told Saxon he wasn't happy with the service or the cost of equipment. Saxon told him to wait a week and if we did like the system or the installation issues were not resolved, he would be back to collect the equipment and remount our old equipment.

    The security equipment was installed Dec 12, 2025. Several issues occurred with the installation:

    The equipment has not properly functioned for two months. call customer service to get the issues resolved. In frustration, my spouse told Saxon he was not happy with the installation, and location of cameras and workmanship and that he was on the verge of wanting the equipment removed. In an effort to appease us, the salesperson (Saxon) told me that he would give us 4 months for free, meaning (I did not have to pay the $75.00 dollars for 4 months).

    To get more of a concrete commitment and understanding of how the monthly bill would be paid, I emailed Saxon inquiring about how he was going to cover the payments for four months...crickets. He ghosted me. If I don't make my payments, my credit will be impacted. Before the loan. my credit score was 834. after the loan, my credit score went down to 827.

    Unaddressed issues:

    1. The techs mounted the cameras in the wrong location. When we told the technician that the cameras were in the wrong location, the tech stated he wasn't allowed to move the cameras because they weren't Vivint's equipment. So, he mounted the new cameras in another location. Our salesperson Saxon keep insisting the technicians can put the cameras where we wanted them. The technician stated the salespeople doesn't know what or how we do our jobs.

    2. Wires were all over the attic floor.

    3. One outlet installed to accommodate four power outlets which is very concerning to us, potential fire hazard maybe? We had to have an electrician come in and install an additional electrical outlet.

    4. The driveway camera lights turned on and stayed on all night then turn off intermittently on their own. Vivint sent out two more techs, the problem was not resolved. Finally, the fourth tech replaced the entire camera and light unit. As of 2/12/2026, the new camera lights come and go every three minutes.

    Needless to say, we are not pleased. We feel we paid way too much for the security equipment. We told Saxon we did not want to be locked in 5-year contract. In five years, I will be 77 years old. I told Saxon this. After reviewing the loan and service agreement, we found out that we are on the hook for five years anyways. I will let everyone I come in to contact with not to deal with Vivint salespeople. They are shady and not honest. The equipment is of poor quality, and the techs are poorly trained. We are a retired couple, and we feel taken advantage of. Shame on us.

He took the time to explain all of my options, answered every question thoroughly, and made sure I felt comfortable using the system before he left.

    The installation itself was clean and efficient. All wiring was neatly done, and he was very respectful of my home—no mess left behind. What really stood out was his attention to detail and commitment to making sure everything was working perfectly. It’s clear he takes pride in his work.

    Like I said, my computer says the camera turned off at seven forty five in the morning. I've had no coverage for the front of my house. This whole time. So when you don't provide a service, how come you don't retrograde people's pay. I shouldn't have to pay for a full day's worth of service. When you guys turned off at eight and didn't turn back on until when you're not still on right now, I'm just tired of your s**** service and spotty reception. It doesn't work the way it should. And that's a problem considering how much you charge. I would never recommend this to anybody as soon as I'm done paying you off. I'm gonna switch to ADT.

    I have been a loyal Vivint Security user since August 2017, but this last month left a bitter taste in my mouth. I had a new smart panel, a CO2/Smoke alarm, and a Doorbell Pro installed. Originally, in December 25, I had attempted to purchase the Smart Hub and Doorbell Pro at a discounted bundled price but kept getting glitches stopping my purchase but sent installers at 2 different times which resulted in Fortiva (Financing Company) denying my request. Finally I contacted Vivint and was sent to a call center overseas. Not only do they talk fast, they use an English name and are incapable of solving my problem. After numerous calls resulting in the same results, an agent found my initial discounted purchase request. She was unable to initiate a new purchase at that amount, but gave me the number to the loyalty agent who I called.

    I explained everything to him again and we seemed to be getting somewhere. He rattled through a number of things and got my credit approved and set up an install. Everything ran smooth on the install and then when I went to my Fortiva Web page, the amount I was charged was "WAY" over what the price of the items I initially wanted back in Dec 25. Once again, back to the overseas agents and more frustrations. The technique to get you off the phone is "they will call you back before the end of their shift with an answer." Don't hold your breath waiting. This happened twice with the only thing I was told was the amount I was initially charged would be reduced substantially, whatever that meant. I am truthfully considering having them uninstall everything and rely on a dog for protection.

    Vivint has the oldest tech ever and is happy to stick you with that equipment even when they have better equipment. Their “monitoring” is a lie and doesn’t work. For the past 4 months my panel is dark and nothing will make it work. They don’t have any customer loyalty and while all of this is bad… imagine how I felt when a rep told me the reason I wasn’t receiving monitoring calls or my emergency contacts weren’t is that their call service can’t call certain cell companies. Also - cancelling is the worst experience I’ve ever had with a customer. Hung up on multiple times. Told it has to be written and when verbal they charge an extra month and there is zero escalation for these people in an out of country call center to make any decisions. Also the phone service to their out of country support is also fraught with disconnections. DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE OF TRUSTING VIVINT.

    I had my Vivint system activated yesterday and scheduled a 4:30 PM appointment for someone to walk me through the setup. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The rep assigned to my case, Alex, handled most of the setup through text, which I didn’t prefer for a brand-new system. When he did call, everything felt rushed, and he couldn’t clearly explain what several features meant. When I asked questions, he told me he didn’t know and suggested I call tech support.

    I was told how to use “Stay” and “Away” mode. I left my home, set the system to “Away” as instructed, and when I returned, the alarm went off and police were dispatched. This happened less than two hours after activation. Customer service was kind and responsive when I called back, and I do appreciate how quickly Vivint contacted the police. However, the situation was stressful and could have been avoided with better onboarding and clearer instructions. I wish I had been properly informed from the start.

    Brandon was hands down one of the best technicians I have worked with. He went well beyond the scope of a standard install and made sure everything was done right, not just fast. On top of setting up the system, he took the extra time to rekey and move locks so I would not have to rely on the old keys from the previous owners. That alone saved me time, money, and a lot of hassle. He was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly cared about making sure the setup actually worked for my situation, not just checking boxes. Attention to detail, problem-solving on the fly, and zero shortcuts. If Vivint had more technicians like Brandon, their reputation would speak for itself. Highly recommend.

    One of my pieces of equipment didn’t work, the garage door opener. I immediately reach out to my sales rep and received no response. I then called customer service and was eventually out to fix the product by replacing it. The tech installed the new equipment and it worked worse than the first one. Went back and forth with customer service and didn’t receive any help with getting the product they sold me to work. On top of that they doubled the agreed upon cost of their services and when I continued to try and get my garage door to work (a service I was paying for) they wanted to upsell me in a $29/month protection plan so that they could come out and fix my garage door opener.

    After all the headaches, I had to fight with them to cancel the service. They then stated that I owed them $106, which was not on any of my bills. But they then said that was the price of the replacement garage door opener that they sent out, that never even worked. So once again, I had to argue with them. They want to pay for a product that was to replace their broken product? And that replacement didn’t work either. Instead of their tech taking the product back with him I now had to ship the product back to them or pay $106. I had to laugh, it was the most ridiculous experience I’ve lived through. Buyers beware, it is a scam.

    On January 7, 2026, I purchased a house in Spring, TX with a Vivint Security System fully installed. The system included window and door sensors, water sensors, a doorbell camera, an outdoor security camera, and a wall-mounted control panel that serves as the system’s main hub. The system had been fully wired and professionally installed prior to my purchase of the home. I noticed that the system was protected by access codes that were not provided to me. The seller reported that he was an investor who purchased the home through a foreclosure and did not have any information regarding the previous Vivint account or owner.

    On January 12, 2026, I called Vivint’s customer service line at 844-402-3272 to ensure that the previous owner no longer had access to the security system and to transfer ownership into my name. I was transferred to a representative who had difficulty speaking English, which made communication extremely challenging. I explained the situation in detail. He informed me that the only way to remove the previous owner was to activate a new account in my name.

    He stated this would require a $100 activation fee plus one month of monitoring at $51, totaling $162.76 with tax. It is absurd that I was required to pay such a large amount to activate a security system already installed in a home I legally own. This appears to be a questionable business practice.

    After extended back-and-forth, the representative stated that he could not place the system in my name because the previous owner’s account was still active. He claimed the previous owner would need to call and cancel their account themselves. I explained that this was impossible due to the foreclosure and asked for a way to verify my ownership of the property. He refused to assist. I spent over 30 minutes on this call with no resolution.

    During the call, while attempting to gather information for the representative on the home control pad, I accidentally armed the system. I was effectively a hostage in my own home, unable to open doors without triggering the alarm. The representative still refused to help. When I opened the garage, I unknowingly triggered the alarm, and it began blaring. Even then, he refused to assist or transfer me to a manager, stating that I could not speak to a manager because I did not yet have an account, which was the entire reason for my call.

    I ended the call due to the representative’s incompetence and began searching online for a solution. After 40 minutes of the alarm blaring, and multiple online searches, I located a code online that successfully deactivated it. Now having the code, I called Vivint again. This time, I was connected to an American representative. Within 10 minutes, this representative created an account for me and scheduled a remote technician appointment to activate the system in my name. Please note: the initial contract sent to me had the wrong address. I called Vivint, had it corrected, and then signed the contract titled “Terms of Alarm Monitoring, Installation, & Sale.” I paid the $162.76 activation fee and awaited the scheduled appointment.

    The appointment was scheduled for 4:00 PM Central Time the following day. Because we had not yet moved into the house, I specifically arranged my schedule to arrive at the property at that time. However, at 3:39 PM, I received a text stating the appointment had to be postponed because Vivint needed to verify that I owned the property. This verification could, and should, have been handled well before the appointment time. I sent the required documentation, via email, immediately. I was told verification would take about an hour. However, at 4:50 PM, I received another text stating they needed additional time. I had planned my entire day around the 4:00 PM appointment and had other obligations. The appointment was rescheduled for January 14, 2026, at 4:30 PM.

    On January 14, 2026, a Vivint technician attempted to activate the system remotely. Despite walking through multiple codes and procedures, the wall-mounted control panel would not activate. The device appeared brand new, and I personally removed the protective plastic film from the screen during the call. The technician stated that an in-person visit was required and scheduled one for January 15, 2026, at 4:00 PM.

    Please note: Customer service called me and reported I needed to sign a new contract due to the technician coming out. They sent the document over, however the pricing had changed from $49.99 per month, $51 with tax, to $69.99 per month. I called them immediately and they tried multiple solutions, however they could not amend the contract for whatever reason. I told them I would not be signing the contract unless it is corrected. About an hour later, I received a call back from customer service who reported they were able to amend the contract with the correct pricing. I signed it.

    On January 15, 2026, I received a text at 10:00 AM stating that the technician’s arrival window was now 4:00 PM–8:00 PM. This extended window had never been communicated to me. I arrived at the vacant home at 4:00 PM. After about 10 minutes, I reached out to their chat support line and was connected to a chat representative who reported the technician would arrive at 4:36 PM. At 4:45 PM, no technician had arrived. When I followed up, the chat representative repeated the same scripted response about the 4–8 PM window and refused to assist further. I let them know that this was unacceptable. I then called customer service. The representative contacted the technician and later informed me that the technician would not arrive until after 8:00 PM. This was unacceptable. I requested to reschedule for January 16, 2026, between 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM, which they confirmed.

    On January 16, 2026, I received a text at 8:49 AM stating the technician was on the way. I immediately responded that no one was at the house and that this time was incorrect. I received no response. After calling customer service, they stated that this “must have been a mistake by the technician,” and that the technician would arrive at 1:00 PM, which he did. My wife and father-in-law were there to greet him. The technician worked for approximately an hour, then called me to state that the wall-mounted control panel could not be activated and needed to be replaced. He placed me on a call with his manager, who stated that I could either pay $500 for a replacement or sign a 60-month monitoring contract at $51 per month. This is outrageous and predatory. I declined.

    Again, please note that this panel appeared brand new and was working perfectly as far as displaying the security camera footage, alarm activation and deactivation, and active sensor monitoring. After declining, the manager stated that my $162.76 would be refunded, but also claimed that unless I paid for the new panel, and the activation fee, the previous owner could not be removed from the account. This meant that they could still access video footage and alarm controls. This is completely unacceptable. After that, the technician left.

    I arrived at the new home at 4:00 PM from work. At 4:10 PM, the technician surprisingly returned, stating he had left his drill. I allowed him inside to search for it. He was unable to locate it and he left again. Approximately 15 minutes later, the technician knocks on the door again. This time, he drops his professional demeanor and begins to accuse us of stealing his drill. He states, “Come on man, give me my drill. I know you have it.” My utter horror and shock when I hear this is evident on my face. I explain to him that there are several drills in the house and that I do not need his drill. I welcomed him in again to look, and I gave him access to my tools to ensure that they are not his.

    After he could not locate the drill. He continued to make statements such as:
    - “It didn’t just grow legs and walk away.”
    - “There’s nowhere else it could be.”

    - “I did you a favor installing that motion detector. Come on, give me my drill.”

    My father-in-law decided to go out with him and help the technician check his truck to see if he misplaced it. They were unable to find it. After about 5 minutes, the technician comes back to the house and makes the statement, “I saw your wallet on the counter all day and didn’t take it. I showed integrity. Why can’t you?” The aforementioned accusations were deeply disturbing and unprofessional. I asked him to leave the property immediately and assured him, once again, that we did not have his drill. We later reviewed footage from the Vivint cameras and clearly saw the technician leaving the property with his drill in hand, as well as video evidence of him accusing us afterward. I reported this incident to Vivint and provided all the video footage. While they apologized, no resolution has been provided.

    Please note: On Tuesday, January 20, 2026, I had not yet received the refund of the $162.76. I called customer service who apologized and could not understand why the refund was not already processed. They processed it and I received the refund the following day. This has been one of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had with any company in my entire life.

I have been a customer for years. When I called to check on it, they said (I think) that there were no purchase orders and couldn't even tell me my tech's name or number. I'm beyond frustrated. I can not open my front door from the outside, and I have to leave it unlocked, of which is a major security risk. It's been well over a month that I've dealt with this.

    Set up easy. However the tech had to call me to finish the set up. A little more written instruction for first time users would be helpful. If it was out there I didn’t know about it. So no real complaint, it was probably my failure to ask and communicate. I had never set up a security system or had one. Little common knowledge things for the tech may not be known by some people, such as I. However my tech did not lose patience with me and I was very thankful.

    On 1/09/2026 my wife and I decided to upgrade our system to a better camera for 1200.00 for 3 cameras and a doorbell camera that Vivint said they would throw in since I kept having issues with my cameras and system. On 1/13/2026 after doing research i found that Vivint has a update camera the GEN 3s which no one ever mentioned because they are trying to push out the Gen 2s to deplete their stock so I asked if they had it available and was advised they are coming out in February 2026 and not ready for sales so I decided to have a troubleshoot call instead since my Gen 1s kept going offline and not working and cancel my upgrades.

    On 1/14/2026 the tech came and I asked about the Gen 3s. He said he had it in his van and he would gladly install it. I said okay. I explained what the previous representative said from the loyalty department that they would sell me 3 gen 2s camera and throw in a doorbell. Tech told me just do the contract which was for 1918.40 which is a huge difference compare to the original agreement and explain to loyalty department and they would fix the rate and update my contract. After the tech left I was given the run around and then I finally spoke to a supervisor who said she couldn't do anything even though I was promised all these things. She would deduct some money off my account. Whatever vivint says they lie. There is always some hidden fee and don't let them promise you anything unless you see it in writing. Today I just called and cancelled my account with vivint due to the endless lies and promises. Stay far away from this company.

We were told cancellation anytime was free, that we could move the system with their help anywhere, anytime, no cost. They would even make it look like the system never existed. None of that was or is true.

    I have called and complained so many times about the lies their sales rep told. Never even so much as an apology for the fact that I am now stuck in this mess. I either pay off the $2,000 equipment bill to avoid termination fee with Vivint- or I pay $600 to cancel the services and still have to pay on the equipment loan. To top it off it is $150 for uninstall- and $150 to reinstall at the new home. All damage is to be repaired by you. They fix nothing. So $150 to uninstall what a quick Google search shows you to do. This is the biggest mess and lie. I will never recommend this company to anyone. Ever. Stay far away from them.

    I paid for a front camera, and a doorbell camera, they told me the smart thermostat was included. The technician came and installed a stupid doorbell camera and smart thermostat and left. That is not what I paid for. I have had a bad experience since day one.

    Timing was great for Mr. ** to come by. I was going to go out, get a new door and garage door camera. And it was also great to know that my other system was going to be done on the subscription. ADT was not what I wanted after I got it. So yeah happy with what I got. And the two gentleman that did the work were both very nice and very professional in their work. Thanks for a job well done.

    We had ADT, ring and one camera; this was a peace of mind for our kids. And after speaking with the Rep, we hands down made the switch so fast. The reasons were just so clear and obvious. Number 1 being if we lost internet or power, we will ALWAYS have our security system on due to the backup battery and the chips built in. Number 2, the amount of security we NOW have, 2 cameras (front & back-which we never had), glass detectors if any of our windows in the back & front of the house were to break, that will now be detected, 2 smoke/carbon detectors (upstairs/downstairs), all the doors have sensors.

    My favorite feature is the light under the driveway camera which follows whoever is in front of the house, & the panel itself- you can see your camera views on it, you can call your emergency contact fire, emergency, & the most IMPORTANT the duress feature if anyone was to come in you press the 4 digits and the alarm will continue as normal BUT sends the signal for help and the police will be at your doorstep. Our NEW doorbell is so slick, and the view is clear. We have a new lock which connects to the system. We used to have 3 apps to view & NOW we have 1 with everything on it and easy to use. OVERALL we now feel a lot better with our security system. 10/10.

    The technician suggested me doing better protection as much as possible. Introduced a lot of options and spent more time to explain that. It is great things I learned about security. We did multiple times on paper works for options, it is great and convenient. I appreciated his works. The online sale and financial services are great too. It is faster than I expected. Thanks.

    Bryson was very knowledgeable on the system and quick to answer questions. We got to talking numbers and he gave me a great option. I had been looking for a system with a closed network without needing wi-fi and they have it. The technician arrived, cleaned up after himself, walked through the system, and was very efficient.

    Great customer service from the beginning when I was looking life information to the end when it was installed. When I was investigating alarm systems Vivint was in the top of the list. When I called for information they were very knowledgeable but also made me feel very comfortable. When they came to install he was amazing and walked us through everything. So happy I chose them.

    The technician was great. Install went very smoothly. I wish it was explained to me beforehand that the outdoor cam would require a hole drilled through a wall and that it would plug into an outlet inside. I don’t love that. Other than that I’m happy with everything and the quality of the equipment.

    Be warned when you cancel this account. Unless you take your equipment with you or give them a phone number of the new person that is buying your house you will still be billed. I just found out today that I have been paying on my canceled account for a year and three months. Only when my credit card was stolen and credit card number was changed, did I realize that it wasn’t my current account. It was my old account and they won’t reimburse me for the funds, even though they said they saw that it was canceled, but because I didn’t give them the new homeowner‘s phone! Voice on the customer service line was electronic. It wasn’t a real person. It was hard to understand them and the way they spoke you knew it was from a person that didn’t speak English well.

    I am satisfied… Our 24 hour surveillance system did exactly what it was meant to do. On Christmas Eve, we experienced a car break in, by the 26th, this system was installed. 2-weeks later, there would be thieves returned, but our spotlight deterred them and the camera recorded it all. What boosted my appreciation for this purchase is because although this scene wasn’t cut out as a clip… I was able to utilize video playback and saw what occurred to show police.

I was very nervous not knowing if my system would be installed today or not but he made four different calls just to ensure that everything was installed today.

    It was so great working with Vivint! From the customer service experience to our installation experience with Omar, everything was excellent! Omar drove out from Killeen area 1.5hrs to install at our new home in Georgetown due to our local installation tech having an injury and sudden cancellation of our 8am appointment. The manager texted me directly and advised he would attempt to get us on track. He was able to get our installation appointment the same day in the early afternoon. Omar came to our home and was amazing! He had great recommendations and was very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient.
