I thought it was going to be good. But as I found out later how much everything was going to be, more than what we discussed, plus everything not working the way they said and now I call and can't get an answer or a reply! I have ran out of numbers to call. All I want is for them to come pick up their equipment. I don't want anything from them... I have no paperwork because they didn't give me anything but talk and a handshake... What do I have to do to get out of this mess?? My credit will be ruined because of them. He told me I had 2 months to cancel and no one answers, so I can't cancel. What do I do??

James was absolutely amazing. He called in advance to notify and confirmed the appointment time. He had an early availability on his schedule so he came earlier than expected, which worked in our favor. He was very knowledgeable about the system and educated us on how to use the security system and made recommendation’s. Install was fast and easy and he did an amazing job putting everything together. He explained the security system to us with ease in a way which me and my husband understood. His personality was awesome as well, and we were comfortable having him in our home, assisting us with this system.

Different sale/tech could give you different information on prices and what could be done on the system which caused us headache and annoyance. Jordan, the tech who installed the equipment was patient in explaining things and very pleasant to work with. It has been less than a day to know if the system meets our expectation. So far so good.

We recently had Vivint camera system installed, and we are very impressed. The picture quality is crystal clear day and night, and the motion detection works perfectly. The mobile app is easy to use and gives us instant notifications, which gives us peace of mind whether we’re at home or away. I also want to recognize the team we worked with—Finau, our salesman, was fantastic. He explained everything clearly, answered all our questions, and made sure we chose the right system for our home. Juan, our technician, did an excellent job with the installation. He was professional, efficient, and made sure we understood how everything worked before leaving. Overall, the whole process was smooth, and our Vivint camera system has given us a new level of security and convenience. We highly recommend both the system and the team behind it!

I have 6 Vivint accounts and the alarm service is good in general. However cancellation of a service is really pathetic. Requested cancellation in July 2025, got billed for 3 additional months after that. Now they want to redo the cancellation again, and again I have to pay for another 30 days, making it 4 months after requesting to cancel. We have moved out of the property since June. I own the equipment so it should be a 5 min process. I have been on call for 90 min, transferred from diff people and still no luck.

If I could give zero stars, I would. The customer service is the WORST. I was a longtime customer (10+ years) and hadn't needed any repairs in several years. But over time some of the sensors failed and when I called to trouble shoot and/or get new ones, the nightmare began. Charges for everything so for four failed sensors, it was going to cost a few hundred to replace. Never mind that I had been overpaying for an outdated system for years (not my biggest knock against them since Vivint certainly isn't alone in leaving existing customers paying more while they give tons of deals to attract new customers). Calls would take so long that I'd have to get off (most of us don't have two free hours to trouble shoot) and then when I would call back, I'd have to start all over again. Why bother to enter call notes if they don't get used.
Most of the customer service reps were difficult to understand, lots of attempts to upsell me rather than just addressing my issues, and with no authority to make decisions -- the number of times I was put on long holds while they tried to get approval from higher ups was mind boggling. Seven hours between calls and chats over the span of three days. One person was supposed to call me back at an agreed upon time because after nearly two hours, she still hadn't gotten permission to waive fees and equipment costs and then called me several hours after the set time when I wasn't free to pick up the call. Gave them multiple opportunities to try to make things right before finally deciding I was so DONE, and then it took an hour on the phone to cancel. Never again!

Hello, I normally will not come here to spread negativity but this company Vivint Security has been very disappointing since giving them a second chance.

I will preface this by saying that I do not have any complaints about the system itself and I enjoy the convenience of it. However, I have never in my life had the type of issues I am having with the customer service and the way the business is ran with any other type of company AT ALL. Their sales tactics are based on lying, being deceitful, and prying upon genuine needs parents need for their children to mislead them into a service contract that is based on false promises. I was told by the sales rep that they would buy me out of my Brinks contract. I told them I did not know how much I owed and they said over and over again, "Do not worry about it, we will take care of it." However, that was a complete lie. They only give money towards it but had no intention of buying the whole contract out.
Due to me not having an addition $800 dollars in my bank account to pay out of pocket to buy myself out of my Brinks contract, I called Vivint's customer service and explained my concern and disappointment on the deceptive sales tactics. After being on the phone for hours and talking to 4 different departments they gave an additional amount but still wouldn't cover the entire buy out even though that's why I was told and guaranteed would happen.
Due to me being a mom of 6 I do not exactly have hundreds of extra dollars that I could put towards buying myself out of my Brinks contract. So I decided to just pay both my Vivint security system and to continue paying my BRINKS every month. Because paying my monthly payment of $60 to BRINKS until the balance was low enough to use the VISA gift card from VIVINT to pay it off was the only option since I did not have the hundreds of dollars I could pull out at one time to do so. I discussed this plan with VIVINT customer service and they said that, "It was probably the best bet, because VIVINT would not give me any additional money to pay off my BRINKS account" even though that was what I was told would happen by the sales representative. Once I got the balance of Brinks low enough I went to go pay the amount off.
The VIVINT gift card that had the $1500 on it expired. I called the card company which stated that it expired and they refunded the money back to the issuer and I would need to call VIVINT. So I did. I talked to four different people, one which was a manager, who stated they could not do anything for me. That it was my fault for not paying attention to the expiration on the card. Even though I explained to them why I couldn't use the card to pay off BRINKS because it would of required me to pay out of pocket hundreds of dollars I did not have. She said, "That was something I should of figured out." "That she understood and sympathized that I was now out of $1500 dollars". She said it in the most condescending way as I was crying and nearly hyperventilating on the phone about how could their company corner people like they did to me.
That how could they not do anything when they gave me $1500 dollars that they can see I DID NOT use because it got refunded back to them and just said, "Well you should have used the card when it was valid." They then transferred me to their loyalty department who said they could compensate me $10 a month for 5 months. (Which would give me 50 dollars back from the $1500 dollars that was taken back from me) or give me 20% of any additional equipment I wanted. I then stated that I would never buy additional anything from a company that takes advantage of people and is based on deceptive sales tactics and doesn't care at all about their clients and doing the right thing.
Extremely disappointed, how can any company do this to people?? I tried over and over again to give the company the opportunity to correct this so I didn't have to write a review because I hate doing that to companies. BUT NO ONE from the company cared at all to help. Even when I asked for the manager's boss she said "They aren't going to be able to help you either".

Vivint System is installed in less than 3 hours end-to-end. From going around the house to identify spots for cameras, sensors and even installing them. The built-in sensors were hooked up to new system and other devices were added. I would have been more happier if my Z wave compatible devices from other companies, like Lutron switches, wyze cameras, door locks, and ecobee thermostats could be added to the app for central monitoring and control. All in all, the system is up and running and easy to use. Looking forward to seeing all the benefits of this system.

Started off really really rough. I was taking on an account from the previous owner and was literally a nightmare for two weeks, was told I’d be called, I had to call back a number of times, transferred for five times on one call alone, no exaggeration. Finally, I got a hold of a guy named Jordan who was an incredible help and also Kes who saved the day. There are some people who genuinely want to help, but because of the corporate nature of the company you’re not immune to a situation like this. I was able to get a direct text line, I feel once you’re able to get a person you’re in touch with it was enough assurance for me to give it a try even after such a rough experience. That is why the three stars otherwise I would’ve given it a five for the excellent customer service.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Yesterday their salespeople came to my door three separate times despite the clearly posted No Soliciting sign. Later, one of them pressured my husband into letting him inside. When I pointed out the sign and told him they should respect it, he completely ignored me. Even worse, he left the door wide open, letting our cats get out. My daughter and I had to stop everything to chase them back into the house while he stood there and laughed. That is not only unprofessional, it’s downright disrespectful. This company clearly does not respect boundaries, does not train their staff properly, and does not care about the impact of their actions on families. If you see them coming, don’t answer the door.

I had Vivint installed in early 2024. The installation technician was amazing. It was the last good exchange I had with Vivint. The equipment starting failing within 6 months. I sometimes had to reboot the systems up to 6 times a day. They sent technicians several times. Twice the techs couldn't identify the issues. After a year my "free" service was no longer available but I could receive a discounted annual service plan. Otherwise it was $99.00++ if they came out to repair the faulty equipment installed. Part of my my escalating annoyance was the constant upselling every time you'd call for help. I was thinking why would i want to purchase more equipment when what you installed doesn't work!
The last straw for me is when the thermostat failed and they lied repeatedly about expediting a replacement. In the end they do not offer expedited shipping for any reason. It appears to me that Vivint is one of the highest priced home security systems being offered and do little to support what they sell. Their best effort is sending the monthly invoice like clockwork. I understand that their overall rating is superior. I really do hope that everyone that gave them high marks truly got what they said they received. But for me and my 50+ calls and total lack of online support, I say stay away. It's not worth the money or the headache. If you choose to ignore my review I wish you the very best.

Be aware of who you do business with. You will be entering an indentured slave contract signing up for Vivint service. The monitoring service does work but the business practices are terrible. Unless you are making a payment you would not be satisfied with the customer service. They do not want to honor ending the contract unless you buy them out basically.
When signing up for the service you are not told that you would be getting a bank loan to finance the equipment installed in your home. I found that out after the fact. Had I have known I would have never done it. They will harass you over a late payment and continue to contact you after you've said not to. They don't care about any life events that may happen. They just want you to pay for 5 years worth of their service. If you want anything to happen in your favor you have to insist on speaking with someone who can solve your issue before you get off of the phone. And mind you my last call was 2 hours with Vivint customer service agents. I would of rather bought a dog instead of this service.

We were charged $3600 for $2000 worth of equipment. Vivint says they have zero percent financing. If so, why is the equipment more expensive to finance? I did a calculation and they are basically charging 28% interest to finance. I will say, because we are 65, we were able to cancel our contract.

Jeff, the salesman, came back the next day & I showed him & told him to look for the missing equipment. He couldn't find it either! I told him I had called & canceled everything THAT morning. He kept telling me to try it for 30 days. I said no, I have 3 days to cancel & I did within 24 hours! Even that phone call went bad as he**. Listen very carefully to the spiel... he told me free for the house they pick & then suddenly it wasn't and I'm being financed? Now they are taking 30 days to come get it? My state's atty General will be notified as well as my local news station if needed.

I’ve been a Vivint customer since 2017. I recently sold my home and cancelled my service but I continued to get charged. I called multiple times to get this handled and it wasn’t until today, September 8th that they finally processed the cancellation that I had made back in July! I got transferred to different individuals and had to repeat my story over and over. Never thought I’d say this but their customer service is trash. I had plans to get vivint again in the future but I won’t after this experience.

This complaint is to detail a recurring and highly concerning business practice by Vivint that has resulted in continuous fraudulent billing attempts and a significant amount of stress. This pattern appears to be a deliberate strategy to delay or prevent account cancellations, negatively impacting customers. I called Vivint to cancel my security system service. The representative I spoke with confirmed my cancellation request and provided verbal assurance that my account would be closed. At this time, I also discussed a refund of certain payments, which the representative agreed to process.
Despite this confirmation, Vivint failed to process the cancellation. A few weeks later, I received a call from Vivint stating that I owed money for the service, as my account was never canceled. I explained that I had already canceled. The representative acknowledged the error and again stated that they would process the cancellation and the refund.
This exact scenario has now repeated itself on multiple occasions. Each time, I call Vivint, and a representative confirms that my account will be canceled and any owed money will be refunded. However, the cancellation is never actually processed, and I am subsequently contacted again, now owing for additional months of service.
The most recent example of this occurred last week. I spoke with a representative who, once again, assured me the account would be canceled. They advised me to call back on Monday to confirm the cancellation. When I called on Monday, a new representative informed me that no cancellation request was ever submitted on the previous call. This directly confirms the pattern of representatives verbally agreeing to a cancellation but failing to process it, presumably to avoid a negative impact on their performance metrics.
This is not a one-time clerical error; it is a systemic and malicious business practice that is causing me significant frustration and has the potential to ruin my credit score. It is a gross failure of customer service and business ethics. Vivint is deliberately creating a situation where it is impossible for me to cancel my service, leading to continuous and fraudulent billing.

We regret the day we let the Vivint salesman in our door!! The install was madness, but we already signed the contract so they didn't care. That is not the reason for this particular review. We had the service for 2 years, and decided to sell our home. We paid the equipment off at closing (10/8/24) and also cancelled our service. January 2025 I found they had still been charging a monthly monitoring fee on a credit card we no longer used. Brought to their attention, and they said they weren't made aware of the account being cancelled. We have all the records in our recorded closing documents.
Mind you, they owe us $$$$ for unapproved debits made on our credit card AFTER we paid off and closed the account, to which they said we will not be refunded, so they stole that money from us. Obviously, I cancelled that card, and now my husband just received this email from Vivint this morning, see photo. Seriously, a year later and they're still trying to steal our money!!!

I’ve been a loyal Vivint customer since 2007, and I’ve never had a single issue—until I upgraded my system in June 2024. Since then, it has been one frustrating problem after another. The upgraded equipment has been defective from the start. Vivint initially refused to send a technician, even lying about appointments being scheduled. I had to file a BBB complaint just to get the system replaced. Unfortunately, the replacement system began failing again within a month.
I financed the equipment through a loan, and Vivint has acknowledged the system’s issues. They offered to cancel the loan and refund me what I’ve already paid—but this route results in a 1099-C tax form, meaning I’d owe taxes on equipment that didn’t work and that I no longer even have. I asked for a reasonable alternative: that Vivint refund the full value directly to me so I could pay off the loan myself and avoid a tax penalty. They refused.
Ironically, they already agreed to refund my out-of-pocket costs directly—which completely contradicts their claim that “all refunds must go through the bank.” Vivint chose the most convenient solution for themselves, and in doing so, pushed a financial burden onto me, their long-time customer. No ownership. No accountability. Just policy over people. Extremely disappointed in how this was handled. I expected more from a company I trusted for nearly two decades.

I would give them 0 stars if I could. Vivint agreed to cancel the service portion of my contract due to system not catching an auto theft. I paid the equipment off and Vivint sent the service portion of the contract (against our agreement) to collections without notification. They acknowledge they made this verbal agreement per call recordings, but say they are not removing the charges because I didn’t call them when I paid the equipment off? I have had the same number and email since I started dealing with them 7 years ago, so closing the account as a non payment issue with no notice seems to be unethical to say the least.

This is a SCAM COMPANY!!! Their equipment is faulty, they LIE about not charging you to send replacements and then REFUSE to refund you when you send the faulty equipment back! The customer service team are all trained to and say that they can't get a manager or supervisor on the phone. I've made 3 calls about this and they all say the same thing.

I am travelling and got a message from Vivint that some sensors are not responding. SO I called Vivint and they told me there had to be a person in the house do a trouble shooting, otherwise I will be charged $95 for the technician. I have purchased insurance from Vivint for repairs, this $95 charge is a rip off. This is a company which just wants your money, definitely stay away from it.

Our Vivint installer was excellent—very knowledgeable, patient, and careful with his work. Our project was large and took many hours, but he stayed positive, explained everything clearly, and made helpful suggestions throughout. Truly a great experience with him. Overall, Vivint’s service has also been very good so far. From the installer to the agent who helped us, everything has been smooth, prompt, and easy.

After spending a little time getting familiar with the new system that i purchased I really must say it is amazing. I pulled to the house from working a 16hr shift and had the door unlocked and driveway light on all from my from iPhone. The convenience alone is top tier. The quality of your stream is the best I have had. This is coming from an existing ADT member and I had Arlo prior to Adt. User-friendly app so easy to navigate and this is so important!! The equipment is also very bougie I must say. I am beyond satisfied!! Plus the staff is outstanding!

Since the misleading manipulating salesmen stepped foot on my property I was lied to with every word he spoke. From that moment on from installation man to every other Vivint employee I talked to I was lied to, manipulated, and had strong-armed with low moral tactics pushed on me by every employee just so they can make a little commission. It’s sick what this companies employees do to communities by coming in with garbage equipment being sold by thug garbagemen supported by low moral having employees on the phone, the app and in person! Since minute one nothing worked right!! It slowed our WiFi down to nothing with us having the only provider with the biggest package in the area but when I asked salesman he promised it could support their garbage equipment!!
When I call for help they just told me it’s all on me. I should look into getting a better WiFi provider!! Nothing but smoke mirrors and lies to get you pass imaginary lines to trap you paying for equipment that doesn’t even work half as good as the crook salesman showed me on his iPad. All lies. I’m less than 30days in. Asked for cancellation and removal of the equipment since 24hrs in. But no. Lies lies lies and manipulation to get you stuck paying for garbage equipment for service that does not work. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!! Horrible horrible business tactics. No customer service while they all lie. This company should face criminal punishment for what they and their employees do to communities!!!

My customer service rep Steele was amazing at explaining EVERYTHING and applying all discounts possible!! I had a few issues after signing up that were VERY MUCH out of his control. Steele went above and beyond to rectify the situation and get everything taken care of. Steele provided me several updates (upon my request) regarding who my technician was going to be, name, and badge number so that would feel comfortable and know who would be coming to my home. He continued sending updates, even the morning of the install when the technician that was originally scheduled to come changed!! He’s AMAZING!!!!
Dalton was my technician!! He called when he was headed my way and arrived at the time he stated!!!! The job took about 2 hours!! Dalton was very patient with me being a little indecisive regarding some decisions that I had to make!! He explained everything very well. Additionally, Dalton walked me through how to properly operate my new alarm system, cameras and helped with setting up the app as well!!!! Just a little above and beyond!

I write to review Vivint in Connecticut, and particularly Vivint employee Dave **. The home security business is competitive these days and I've become a bit of an expert over the years. While I'd like to negatively review some of the companies as of late, I do not wish for anything to take away from the spotlight that Vivint deserves, particularly Vivint employee Dave **. Vivint quoted a price, has quality equipment, installed all equipment and stuck to all promises and prices. I was a manager in my career and Dave Boucher is an employee I would have called "a keeper," meaning you want to keep him in the company. First, Dave understands the big picture mission, he knows security systems cold, what you need as a customer and what they have as a company to meet that need. Second, Dave knows the nuts and bolts literally; he was timely at the job and he installed everything, electrical lines, equipment, everything.
I know DIY is big in this industry, but I preferred a trusted, professional installation and Dave ** did exactly that. Can't stop there, Dave knows the business part too; while installing, he helped with invoices, payments, interface, training in web applications, everything. On top of all that Dave was both professional and pleasant. We appreciate Vivint and Dave and we're happy with our system. Thank you!!!

I do not recommend Vivint services. I got into a contract with them, had equipment installed, was charged thousands for this equipment over the course of 5 years. I agreed because I was told the equipment would be mine to keep once paid for. The service was spotty and got worse over time. After paying I called to cancel monitoring service they informed me that the equipment is mine but can’t be used without them. So what was the point of me buying it? Customers shouldn’t be paying anything more than a rental fee. Then there are techs coming to the house begging to let them install new equipment promising a free trial but omitting the double tech fees for installation and removal. Do not get entangled with these scammers.

The tech (Tyler) who came to to do my install was very helpful! He knew his stuff and was able to answer all my questions professionally. My only gripe is that the salesmen told me it was 10 days of recording (not 30 second clips like the other security companies). But that's not necessarily true. That is only on my outside cameras not the indoor cameras unless I upgrade to the more expensive cameras. Also the 10 day recording is only temporary. After a few weeks I lose that, and I would have to pay another subscription to get that feature. It was the big selling point for me and my wife and financing out thats not part of the package was pretty disheartening. I guess the other thing is that the salesman quoted me double the price, it wasn't until after I told him about the other companies I was shopping did he bring the price down to a competive number. Tyler 5/5 stars. Salesman 3/5 stars

Good day, Our experience, as first time clients, we like the system as a whole. However, there are a few things that must be addressed: The salesmen and the technicians should never do any late hour installations within family residences. Especially not during school nights.They shouldn't be in anyone's home past 5 or 6 pm. Families need to eat dinner, do homework, take showers and get ready for the next school day. We agreed to the installation at first, because we thought it would be a quick and easy process, however, it was not that. It affected everyone involved and due to the late hour, everyone was exhausted and I am more than certain that affects the quality of the installation and start up procedures. Please take this into much consideration. Thank you.

My tech Mason was amazingly patient. He helped me get exactly what I wanted in my package because more than I had asked for was on my package. He spent probably the first two hours contacting his manager and the sales rep to help fix my account before I made any commitments. When I first set up my technician appointment, I was told a certain price. And when Mason came, he was instructed to do more than I had asked for which would have been a way larger price. If it wasn’t for him, taking the time to hear my concerns and fix the issue I probably would have canceled my set up. He came to do the set up but ended up going above and beyond! 10 stars!

I should’ve known better when a young kid, a door salesman came to my house wrote down a no money down free equipment just monthly payment skit. We fell for it. 2 months after we found out we were in for $4000 for the equipment. We went back and forth with the company and their salesman. Anyways the sales pitch was all a lie. The cameras were no better than the night owl cameras I already had purchased for $400. Yes there is a fancy app. But too many technical issues. The app is always buffering. I get notifications about a person at my door. But by the time my camera stops buffering and I can actually see the camera the person is already gone.
The system is not worth the money. My thermostat went out in the middle of the summer and the soonest they could get a technician to my house was two weeks out.. I regret ever letting the salesman into my house. If you have kids, elderly parents or pet pets, you are putting them all at risk during the winter or the summer with no heat or no AC due to all the technical issues and delayed response (2 weeks). Buy your own Cameras at Costco or Sam’s.
