Jason was an outstanding technician. He was professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable throughout the entire service visit. He took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and made sure the job was done right. His experience and attention to detail gave me confidence that the work was being handled properly. It's not often you come across someone who combines great customer service with such a high level of technical expertise. I would highly recommend Jason to anyone needing service and truly appreciate the excellent experience he provided.

The experience was great. The sales guy showed up at the door and we weren't gonna answer but he was patiently waiting and harmless. I wanted to see what he had, so when he said it was security I wanted to hear him out. Our old system was broken, doorbell quit working, and we had no cameras. He and his salesmate Cole came in and we sat down. They showed me some numbers and it was what I expected. Affordable but also pricey, however, we needed the extra protection. Our neighborhood is growing a lot. The guys were personable, friendly and knowledgeable. We got a full package with three cameras, control panel, three entry sensors, and a new keyless lock for the front door.
Then they left and we waited for the installation tech to show up in 15 minutes. He started working quickly, then he had a nice young lady come to help him finish setting up. It was done in less than an hour. They showed me how to use everything. The whole team was awesome. These were all hard working youngins. I thought it was great. It really made my day. Thank you guys. I don't remember all of your names but I want you to know that you did a really good job.

My technician, Ryan was excellent. He was very professional and thorough. I was overwhelmed because the sales person did not explain everything that it was going to take for Installation. The sales person did not do a walk-through of my home to explain the coverage I would need. I have many windows. The technician, Ryan explained everything before the equipment was installed, which lowered my anxiety level. I appreciate his patience and instructions.

I would give it 0 stars if I could. We just moved to Williamsburg and we had our service installed yesterday. It took them 7 hours. They messed something up with the thermostat and now we have no AC. It is supposed to be 90 degrees plus today. It has been a nightmare trying to connect with any customer service agent that isn't AI or that can actually do anything other than send messages to other departments. After 3-4 hours on the phone and chatbots, they cannot send someone out today to fix their own mistake and we have small children. They told us we have to sit in the heat and wait for a week before they can fix their own mistake. RUN, do not walk, away from from this company in Williamsburg.
We apologize for the delay and the inconvenience you experienced with the installation and the thermostat issue. We understand the discomfort this causes, especially with young children in your home.

Never use this company. Overpriced, but cannot cancel. Their agents probably get paid when you try to cancel to get you not to, so they don't. Took me the final time after being billed from October until end of March, sitting on the phone waiting and waiting to get it done and confirmed. Then they still kept billing me and then won't refund anything even though they can see the calls to cancel. Full story is we called to cancel our Vivint account on October 8, 2025. The person on the phone offered free equipment, reduced rates, etc., to stay, but we had already left.
They said they would put in the cancellation request, but they did not. Then on February 17th, we called again to cancel and they apologized it wasn't done initially, but they would do it and credit back the balance we had been charged since and again they didn't do it. Then on March 24th we called again and finally the person actually cancelled the account and said he could see the requests for cancellation from the previous 2 attempts and said after they did the final billing we should receive a credit from the first attempt. That didn't come, but I did receive yet another bill from Vivint.
I called, and despite them seeing the phone call with notes from February 17th that we had called to cancel and find out about the refund from the first date it wasn't done, they still said we weren't cancelled until March 25th and then they can bill for 30 days after. I kept asking them to listen to the calls, and just because their employees don't follow through with what they are supposed to do doesn't make it my responsibility to continue to pay them. They refused to help and only agreed to credit a partial month's billing that took place sometime in April (6 months after I called to cancel).
They just tell me their auditor looked and everything is correct and as I explained to them, it is correct if I cancelled on March 25th, but not October 8th or February 17th. They just say there is nothing they can do. I looked online and this is a common occurrence that people cancel and they don't cancel. They have in their notes that on October 8th, we were considering their offer to stay, but by that time we already had a new system with a new company, but if their person writes you considered it then it is too bad. They probably get bonuses for not cancelling, which is why it doesn't happen.
We're very sorry for your challenging experience. For a thorough review of account specifics and to address unresolved billing, please contact us at reviews@vivint.com. Your feedback is vital for improving. Thank you for making us aware.

Got the Vivint total home package and I am pleased and impressed. Tech showed up on time, walked me through everything, and hid all the wires. The smart home + security combo just works. No false alarms, fast alerts, and support actually picks up. 5 stars.
Reviewed June 4, 2026
Security is something you don't realize you truly need until something goes wrong. Unfortunately, when we needed this system the most, it failed. We purchased a complete security package that included cameras, motion detectors, smoke detectors, a video doorbell, smart locks, and monitoring services. During the sales process, we were told the equipment would be provided at no upfront cost in exchange for a 3-year service agreement.
Throughout our time with the company, the camera system was unreliable and experienced repeated outages. On multiple occasions, the cameras were offline when footage was needed to document theft and other incidents. For a company whose primary purpose is security and protection, this is unacceptable. A security system that fails to capture critical events when they occur provides little value when you need it most.
What has been even more frustrating is our experience attempting to cancel service after the contract term ended. For more than three months, we have been trying to cancel our account and have been met with delays, runarounds, and conflicting information. Despite our understanding that we signed a 3-year agreement, we are now being told the contract term is actually five years.
After discussing our experience with several former customers, I was surprised to learn that many reported nearly identical issues regarding contract terms and difficulties canceling service after their initial agreements ended. Looking back, the sales process was smooth, responsive, and highly attentive. Unfortunately, the customer experience after becoming a client has been the exact opposite.
If you are considering this company, I strongly encourage you to carefully review every aspect of the contract, including renewal and cancellation provisions, and get all representations in writing before signing. Based on our experience, we would never choose this company again and cannot recommend them to others. If negative stars were an option, this would be a -5 star review.
We're sorry your experience fell short of expectations. We take any equipment reliability issues seriously, as customer safety is paramount. Please reach out to us at reviews@vivint.com to resolve this with us.

I have been searching for a new security company to replace ADT due to their poor customer service, and I thought I had found a reputable option in Vivint. On May 30th, I spoke with a representative named Cody about their services. I am very straightforward when discussing my needs, particularly because I have a nonverbal autistic child who is prone to elopement. During our conversation, I expressed the urgent need for a security system.
Cody assured me that everything was set, took my payment, and scheduled a technician to come on Friday, June 5th. I invested over an hour on the phone to finalize this arrangement, even having to work late as a result. However, in the days that followed, I received multiple text messages from various numbers within Vivint, instructing me to schedule my installation. Each time, I replied that my installation was already scheduled for June 5th. Unfortunately, I never received any acknowledgement of my messages.
On June 1st, I spoke with another representative and was shocked to learn that I wasn’t scheduled for installation at all. The earliest they could do was July 29th! I am extremely frustrated. I was open about my situation, yet Cody took advantage of my vulnerabilities and wasted my time just to make a sale. It felt like he was dishonest with me from the start, as he never had my installation scheduled. It is disheartening to think that a company would exploit the needs of vulnerable customers. I refuse to pay for a service that begins with such deceit. The entire experience has left me disgusted, as I believe Cody should have informed me of the true timeline upfront. I urge others to reconsider before choosing Vivint, as their practices demonstrate a blatant disregard for individuals in challenging circumstances. Avoid this company; my experience with Cody has been profoundly disappointing.

Missing equipment, some equipment we don’t even know what it’s for just placed where technician wanted to put it. Never consulted about where the equipment was supposed to go, technician just decided some of it.. One camera placed in wrong position mainly monitoring next door neighbor's backyard. Holes drilled through outside walls with no touch up or finish work. Sensors placed in positions never experienced before. Without a doubt a failed first impression that can’t be overcome. We will definitely be using the 30 day return guarantee.
I sincerely apologize for the negative experience you had with our installation. Please contact us at reviews@vivint.com. We want to make things right.

Same day installation was great! The salesman and the installation team was awesome. The only downside was that I was not informed of how long it would take and they were here past midnight. If I knew that ahead of time, I would have waited to have it done earlier in the day on another day.

Our sales rep Marcus was very thorough and absolutely kind, funny and honest! We made a purchase and the same day we were installed and remind you they work late and hard, which was very rare with any company to work at night. Overall great experience. Our cameras are up running and working exactly how they are supposed to. Also the installers are phenomenal. Very kind, respectable and respect your house. Kind people. I would recommend the service 100%.

I worked with 2 gentlemen. The first gentleman sat with me and reviewed everything I would be receiving if I chose to go with Vivint. He showed me options and was very personable. Then, within the same day as choosing to use Vivint rather than my current company, another gentleman came and got started with the installation of the new panel. He too was very personable and was able to answer my questions.

Excellent service from start to finish. Eric was professional, punctual, clearly very knowledgeable, & super patient. He spent 3 hours just waiting on me while I went back and forth with the sales team since I am a returning customer. He explained everything in a way I could understand and made sure the system was working perfectly before leaving. I really appreciated the attention to detail and how respectful he was in my home. Highly recommend! I have always had a great experience with Vivint technicians.

The sales person Danny was professional and kind. He did well but wasn't as thorough in his explanation of the products as he should have been. I actually love Vivint. The way they treated their employees on a show called Undercover Boss led me to use them. I needed what Danny was selling. He did well and wasn't pushy. Maybe he assumed I was a bit more familiar with the products since we spoke about how I was looking into adding some things. Regardless, I'm very pleased with the sales, and install. The installation guys were incredible. I forgot his name. I remember Danny's name because he used a very useful technique on departure and entry. He stopped talking, leaned towards me and gave me a solid handshake. He looked directly at me while doing so and spoke his name after asking and repeating mine. I noticed immediately. Very smart and definitely effective.
The install guy was very good. He insisted on reviewing the order before install. I started to brush him off a bit as this being a waste of time. I just ordered the products less than 30 minutes earlier. The install guy insisted. Turns out he was right. I thought the flood light and camera were one product. That alone had me and the install guy talking in circles. To the point I was getting a bit pissed. He said I paid for an outside camera and the floodlight. I said no, just the floodlight, thinking it had a camera. Anyways, once my tone started to change, the install guy shifted and went over each product and what they did. That's when the confusion cleared. He shifted at the right moment as I am the type to simply say screw it and tell people to kick rocks once I get pissed. He had another install guy show up to cut the install time down for me. It was 7 pm when they arrived. As I had agreed to.
They were a great pair. Funny and very accommodating. They did great work and I was happy. They fixed one of my cameras that I could not get connected to my original panel. I took that off the price and saved a whopping $4 off the monthly charge. We both laughed and yet he didn't push. I had just made a comment on how I was going to buy some cameras myself before they showed but saw the prices and would just put it on hold. The install guy read me correctly. Over all, I know I wrote a book but to be honest, good sales and excellent service is not a common thing anymore. Especially from people as young as these guys were. Very impressive job Vivint! You chose and trained well. The upgraded outside camera attached to the flood light option is pretty bad ass. Exactly what I needed.

So far the technician and the sales agent were great, and the security is better than our previous company. However, so far the camera for the backyard just doesn't work, and the other cameras take a long time to load so I can't really watch in real time, and the rewind feature doesn't work either. So better security, but worse service.

Vivint has a door to door sales call program - we were engaged by a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic, but not hard sell, salesperson that explained the service thoroughly which aided us in deciding to engage a 24/7 security monitoring service. The service and options were explained and our questions were answered to our satisfaction.
Installation occurred on the same day and as with the Sales experience it was done with professionalism and an eye for to make sure the system did not "clutter" up our home. This home is over 100 years old and provided some challenges, but they were overcome with ease and a great attitude. Overall the experience was great.

Both salesman and technician were very professional and knowledgeable about their products. Only suggestions I have for either would for the salesman, make sure the equipment you are purchasing will fit before having the technician come out and let the homeowners know there will be wires showing due to having some equipment plugged on. For the technicians I would recommend having them make sure all equipment is level after installation. These are super minor and I am very satisfied with the service I received. Just some thoughts though.

AVOID this company at all costs. If you move during the contract, they will NOT cancel it, regardless of what they tell you over the phone. I paid off all the equipment early and was told they would put my account on hold until the new owner contacted the company and took it over. Keep in mind... I have paid off ALL equipment early from Fortiva, and I am caught up on monthly contract charges with Vivint. They are now charging me for a service they were handling at an old address. I attempted to contact their customer service, and I got transferred around for 45 minutes and was NOT allowed to speak to a supervisor or anyone who could help waive their mistake. I am now stuck in limbo while they rack up more monthly installments for ZERO service to the customer and very, very poor interaction with customer service. Go anywhere else... Try anyone else... Just don't make the same mistake by trusting this company with SECURITY. It's a scam.
