    A very professional organization. The salesman had a very attentive ear. He listened patiently to the security concerns I have as a senior citizen. The information he provided addressed those concerns. The installation of the system was accomplished the same evening. The installer took his time explaining to me how the system worked and how to activate the security elements, cameras, lights and voice. The process was very smooth from the sale, financing, installing and activating the security barrier to my home.

    Covey Homes New Hampstead has been professionally and kindly requesting that Vivint stop sending representatives onto our private property since January 2025. We are a privately owned community and do not welcome solicitors. Despite multiple emails, phone calls, and direct verbal requests to reps on-site, the solicitation continues monthly. Your representatives are bypassing our leasing office and going door-to-door to sell products that our homes are already equipped with. This is not only a violation of our property rights but is also upsetting and disruptive to our residents.

    I have personally approached representatives on two separate occasions to ask them to stop and invited them to leave information at the office instead, yet these requests are ignored. We want this to STOP immediately. Consider this a final notice: if Vivint representatives are found on our property again, we will contact local law enforcement to have them trespassed. Vivint Management: Please add Covey Homes New Hampstead to your permanent "Do Not Solicit" list immediately.

    I cancelled my service with Vivint in February 2026 after an hour-long call being passed between multiple agents. I was told my account was cancelled. Now I’m being billed anyway. No explanation, no prior notice, no transparency. After doing some research, it’s clear I’m not the only one this has happened to. This looks like a recurring issue where customers are billed after cancellation and forced to fight to fix it. This is not just poor customer service. It’s a broken process at best, and at worst, a system that benefits from customers giving up. I would strongly caution anyone considering this company.

Joshua explained all product lines, when I said "no need", he respectfully moved on as quick as possible (ensuring he completed his job). He listened and I explained what I wanted...he met me where my needs were satisfied. Closed the agreement.

    I signed up because the rep Brandon was such a kind and honest salesman. He took his time and I didn’t feel forced. It took a while for the technician to come but I was comfortable waiting with Brandon. The technician was Cody and he was great. Brandon said something to the effect I would be happy and so far it hasn’t been 24 hours but I’m happy.

    Two weeks ago, I called and scheduled an appointment with Vivint to reinstall two cameras after the work on my house was completed. My appointment was scheduled for 04/30/2026 at 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Last night, I chatted with someone and was told that my appointment was moved to 05/01/2026 at 3:30 a.m., which would be when I would be asleep.

    I called the company directly to find out why my appointment was changed, and I wasn’t informed of this. However, the representative stated that my appointment was for 04/30/2026 and that she will email the Tech to see their ETA to my house. After being put on hold for about 6 minutes, the representative came back and stated that the Tech person stated that they are on the way and will be at my house in 7 minutes. An hour later, I had to call back ViVint to find out where the Tech person was because no one showed up or called for my appointment, and request that they reschedule me for 05/02/2026 at 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon.

    The representative stated that they didn’t have any available slots for 05/02/2026. I stated to the representative that I made this appointment 2 weeks ago, and the Tech person did not show; it is their responsibility to accommodate me. The representative informed me that they have availability today from 12:00 noon to 4:00 p.m. I told him no because I am not taking off work to accommodate them when their Tech person did not show up. The representative stated that he will escalate the problem, speak with his supervisor for clarity, and send an email to the scheduling department to assist. I asked about getting a credit since I have to pay $99.00 for installation, and the Tech person did not show up. I was informed that he can only credit me $15.00.

    This morning, I received an email about rescheduling. I called, explained the situation again, and was told there was no availability tomorrow—only noon to 4 p.m. today. I pointed out I would be at work, and became frustrated when they suggested I adjust my schedule. The representative then warned me to remain professional. Ultimately, I had to reschedule for next week and am now considering switching to another alarm company.

    If I could give Vivint zero stars, I would. My experience has been nothing short of frustrating and disappointing from start to finish. The sales person misrepresented the services, pricing, and contract terms. The sales process felt extremely deceptive. The representative who came to our home was pushy and, frankly, dishonest. I told him multiple times that I couldn’t afford the system, yet he kept returning with lower prices, which immediately raised red flags about how inflated the original offer must have been. I should have walked away at that point but did need a security system. He also tried to upsell unnecessary equipment, and although we declined, he still slipped in a monitoring device for the backyard that we never agreed to. We didn’t catch it until it was too late.

    One of the biggest issues is the contract. We were led to believe that if we moved, we could cancel or transfer the service. Fast forward 18 months—due to unforeseen circumstances, we’re moving into an apartment where we don’t need the system. Now we’re being told we’re locked into a 60-month contract with no option to cancel. That was never explained; we were told we could cancel.

    To make matters worse, the salesperson rushed through the entire presentation and barely reviewed the contract. When it came time to sign, it was just “initial here” over and over. He claimed his tablet wasn’t working properly and couldn’t show us the full agreement, saying we’d receive it by email later. By then, of course, it was too late.

    After the sale, the rep completely disappeared—he wouldn’t answer calls or return messages when we tried to follow up with questions. The installation was no better. The technicians seemed inexperienced, and the work was sloppy. There are large holes in the wall behind the panel in our hallway, which will require repair if the system is removed. Overall, this experience feels like a scam, and based on what I’ve since seen and read about Vivint, it doesn’t appear to be an isolated case. Be extremely cautious dealing with Vivint salespeople—the lack of transparency and poor service simply aren’t worth it, especially given how overpriced everything is.
