From Vivint, we have cameras in the living room and at the doorbell, and a couple of window and door sensors. We were out of state when we got broken into. The alarm went off and scared the robbers away. Vivint's response was very quick. Most of my interactions with their sales reps have been good. The installation team has always been very quick. They’ve been good at explaining how things work. However, there was some confusion with some of the additions that we added after the robbery. I was quoted one price but charged another and they said I heard it incorrectly. It was fixed to their satisfaction, not mine. But other than that, I’m very happy with Vivint.

A young man was going around the neighborhood offering Vivint and their package consisting of the box and an emergency watch was cheaper than the previous system I had then. He was nice and the installers came in, did what they were supposed to do and told me about different things about the system. I'm very satisfied with the service so far.

Changed my way of thinking about alarm companies. I experienced several alarm companies. Vivint is by far the most professional and user friendly service we have had ever. From the phone call to the install, each associate was professional and well educated. I was particularly impressed with how highly they spoke of their employer and how well they were treated as employees.

Every Vivint representative that entered my home was very professional yet did not talk over my head. They listened to my questions, and answered every one. They also were very friendly with my fur babies and even alerted me when one got out and went out to help and make sure I got her back. They made sure I knew how to work the equipment. And they cleaned up after themselves.

An old Vivint system was installed when we purchased the house. Waited a few years to activate it, until a salesman came to the door and explained the promotion to get into the "smart" world for a very minimal monthly cost and little equipment cost. Extremely handy being able to see home functions from your smart phone and the history queue of events on the run. With pets at home it's nice to know someone is looking out for them even when we are not home. Installation of new devices and system setup happened same day and took less than an hour. Very convenient.

We travel so we have Vivint's security system including the cameras and a window system. Their service has been pretty satisfactory. When we have called recently and set things up, the last person that I talked to was extremely helpful. He did a great job and made sure everything was really set. We were rushing to get through, so I think some things got a little bit jostled. The guy before him forgot to put certain things in but he was really good and stayed on the phone until everything was together. I just hope that they get the doorbell cameras which I want to order. They were out of stock and it would be really great to have one.

I knew about Vivint when my daughter got it. I have them for more than five years and it works really well. I have called them a couple of times and then they got right on and fixed it. I've never been unhappy with it. Their reps are knowledgeable enough to handle me. Then when my mother was alive, she had an alert button and she would punch that button when she would fall in her bathroom at the front of the house. Even if the back panel is here in the back hallway, they never missed a trip and they would have an ambulance here in three or four minutes. I had the panic button for the last two years my mother was here and it has always been Vivint. Overall, everybody's gonna have some problems once in a while, but when I've had a problem, they got right on it and worked it out that day.

I purchased Vivint six years ago because it was necessary for safety. The interactions with the salesman then was good, but it hasn't been that great currently with their staff 'cause I tried to call and upgrade. Trying to add to my service was challenging and was not as easy as I would have liked or as the company would probably have hoped. It put pressure on me to call them and schedule an appointment, which was frustrating for my schedule.
When I told the person from Vivint that I had an issue and I was thinking about adding a camera on, I asked about the deal and if I could have the technician who's coming out to explain to me and give me a package. They agreed. They had to do a sim card exchange in the device. The technician that they sent out was very helpful, personable and professional. He was from out of state and was not familiar with the area, but provided great service. Overall, Vivint is still great. Their service is good and reliable. Their response time has been excellent and they called when there were issues.

I have to say I am beyond extremely impressed with Vivint. The professional rapport, level of knowledge, and the level of customer service we received was outstanding. Far above any other.

At this point, I have Vivint's smoke detectors, door monitoring, and a motion sensor. I got them primarily for the protection of my home. So far, I'm very satisfied with their service. However, the original installation was not done well. It was a sloppy installation. The technician ran into one of my kitchen cabinets with a drill bit and scratched it. But I believe the person who did that isn't with Vivint anymore and that happened quite a few years ago. Since then, I've been very satisfied with all of the technicians as well as any other installations or upgrades that have been done.

I moved to another state and wanted to shut off my alarm system and was told I either had to pay $1900 for the rest of my contract or another $670 for equipment I didn't know I had to take with me. The customer service people treated me with huge disregard and very disrespectfully. How can they rip people off and have these people who work for them that are totally disrespectful. I am the customer and should never be treated like I do not matter.
I would let everyone know that this company is entirely full of liars and they do not tell you that if you move you have to take the system with you, even though they installed it and for me to remove it, I would have to unhook it from wires with electricity. I am thoroughly disgusted with this company. I would gladly have transferred the service had they put equipment in my new house but they want me to pay another $670. What an extreme rip off! This company is not one anyone should use unless you want to throw your money away.

I've first heard about Vivint from my daughter. The guy who came discussed with us what features he thought we should go with, the installers who came knew their stuff, and I'm happy with the service. We've not had an emergency where I actually needed somebody, but my basement started to back up to a sewer and they called me right away. I was cooking a rhubarb strawberry dessert and it ran over. I opened the oven and the minute the smoke came out, the alarm rang and they called right away. It showed me that they respond very fast, which is very impressive. It gave me that reassurance.
Not very long ago I phoned their rep because I was very unhappy I couldn't lock my house. The stupid batteries were dead and I didn't remember there were batteries in there to change. We would lock the house when we go to bed but we had not been able to. The rep had to come back out because they were having trouble with it. It also upset me that along with setting up the security was I had to bump my Internet, which now costs me more per month in order to get it enough so that the system would work. Moreover, I wish they supplied me with more than one sign rather than just giving me one small sign to put up. We're having a lot of crime in our area and it's funny because the last two days I've been driving around, I've noticed people with their signs out but they're not big. There's a lot of us in our location that are using the sign and it would be nice to show that we are with Vivint. But overall, it's been a satisfying experience.

I wanted a system in my home, and when I did my research, APX looked like the fastest, most reliable company, and I liked their features and prices. They're the company that I originally signed up with, and they did the installation. I've got glass break detectors, smoke detectors, heat detectors, window units, door units, and an advanced panel. Then they changed into Vivint and I upgraded the panel. The APX team was not up to the level that I think Vivint is. The people that upgraded my panel were wonderful. I am so glad that Vivint is taking care of me. They've certainly given me what I needed and wanted. I am most impressed with the speed of response.

We had the remotes for the cars, the app on my phone, and the glass break on the windows in the service package that we got from Vivint. So far, I'm very satisfied with the service. Everybody's been really great. The sales representative and installer came several years ago. Then we've just had some work done on the battery because it was going dead, and the tech who came out to work on it has been great. He was professional and very careful and took care of everything that he needed to do.
They were going to charge me for the call, and I almost went to another company because it was the battery upstairs that had a problem, and I couldn't get an answer over the phone on how to get it replaced. The tech was having me do a bunch of work that I'm not qualified to do, and I felt that it was really up to them to do this work. So, that was a little hiccup. I called back and had a conversation with somebody at Vivint, and they sent somebody out and waived the charge, so that was really nice. It's been great with Vivint.

I'm not fond of door to door sales, but a neighbor was having an alarm system installed so a couple of Sales Reps came by our house to talk to us about their services. An alarm is something we have thought about but haven't had much time to investigate. Carl and his partner explained the benefits and the various types of equipment Vivint offers along with the cost. Once we decided to go ahead with getting a system, they were able to begin installing it that night! They didn't try to sell us on equipment we didn't need or want. They listened to our reasons for not wanting certain equipment and didn't try to push it anyway.
The installation took a bit longer than I was expecting, but the technician was fantastic and fixed an issue with our doorbell before installing the new doorbell camera. It's not often you find someone who wants to fix the problem instead of just finding a way around it! And because he was able to fix it, they did not have to charge us more for the installation of the doorbell camera.

We've been using Vivint for nine years now. I purchased the normal window and security alarm when we first put it in. Their reps were easy to contact and answer our questions but they're not always very nice. Their installation team have all been fabulous and are the best - so nice and considerate. In fact, I always make them cookies when I know that they're coming. However, just recently, I was a little upset with Vivint because they told me prior that I could upgrade and they would throw in some things, but that wasn’t the fact. My whole block is Vivint all the way down because I have referred all those people to them.
They're a great company and I like their service. I just wish that they would do more of what they say they'd do. They said they’ll do $50 for referring people to them which they do but sometimes not. They also told me to call them when my contract expires and they'll give me a new contract and throw that camera in for me because I wanted a camera on my front door. But when I called and told them if they could give me that upgrade, they told me they can't do that anymore and that I'd have to pay. I put door locks on all my doors with the little sensors and added the new panel and they made me pay for it all. All they really want to do is make sure they renew that contract with me. We thought they'd do something for a good customer like us. I love the company. I just don’t like the way they operate and their customer service sucks.

Vivint has been excellent, and all are working well. We got the system because of our experience in Northwest in Seattle with threats of breaking and entering. However our problem was I keyed in the wrong entry and thought somebody was breaking in our bedroom, but it didn't turn off until we've figured out what we needed to do.

Learned the hardest way possible VIVINT has had a policy for some time not to call through the wall box if an alarm is canceled within 8 seconds. That can be a loooong time when an alarm goes off at 2:19 am and you are trying to talk to your spouse. We turned ours off within 5 sec, id'd what room the alarm went off in and waited for VIVINT to call through the box. They never did. We were truly alone. I had to check the house myself as wife stayed by the box for VIVINT to call. Never happened. Then I call customer service and learn about 8 sec policy. Then another call to tech support to get a note into the system to call us regardless of alarm time. Up to 2:18 this morning would have given them 5 stars. Now not so sure.
Think about this - I had to call them to get a special note to call us when an alarm goes off. Have had Vivint since 2010. I get it about all the false alarms and folks with true emergencies can't get support. But I could have been dead with Vivint talking to dead air 8 sec later. Extremely disappointed and trust has been broken. Will trust the hardware, my cell phone to call 911 and my firearms. No longer trust Vivint.

We have a motion detector, camera, and panel from Vivint. We also had one door alarmed, and just a while ago, the alarm went off and it ended up calling the emergency services. There's something wrong with our panel, and I wanted someone to come out here and fix it. I don't need to be talking to a representative trying to get me to do something over the phone. Vivint was going to bill me for fixing their system that's not working. It's ridiculous. I even have it unplugged and am no longer using it.
When We signed up with them, we happened to be leaving for a holiday, and because I was in a hurry, I didn’t realize that it was a five-year contract that I was locked into, whether I liked it or not. And when they set the system up, I wasn't even here. So, they didn't get the software installed and they had to come back and do that. At where I’m at now, I’m not very satisfied with the level of support, and surely wouldn’t recommend them to anybody.

We signed up when Vivint was APX. We had a salesman come to our door when we just bought a new house, and we got on board. Everything with the sales rep was pleasant. We got good deals. We've been customers for so long. One of the techs, when we first built our new house, thought he could put one of the monitors and so he drilled a hole on the wall, but he wasn’t able to and left it like that. It was the most unpleasant. When we recently upgraded, the techs were a lot more knowledgeable than the first one we had. We actually just recently revamped the security system because there's been some burglaries in town. Right now, we have a camera in the backyard, the doorbell camera, and all the window breaks.
Everything's been good. However, last weekend where my wife and I were out of town her sister was dog-sitting for us and she actually tripped the alarm. Her sister had to call us to get the password. We never heard a word about it from Vivint and the police was never sent. Vivint said that they were sending us an email, but the email doesn't go straight to our phones which we don't check that often. It was concerning that no other action was taken other than that.

We've had great service from Vivint. We wanted basic security for the house and got the door sensors and the fire alarm. The installation team was real professional and so were the reps who came out one time to update the box. We were pleased with them. However, I had an incident when I was cooking something on the stove and I let the grease get too hot. The fire alarm in the hall that connects onto the kitchen went off but my home phone rang after a good while and it took a long time for them to call me about it.
I told them to cancel it because I just burned something on the stove, however, they said it's too late now because they already called the fire department since they couldn't get us on the phone. They said they called earlier but I didn't answer and it went to voicemail. I told them they called the wrong number because my cellphone isn't even on in the morning early, so I have it charged and I don't even use it unless I go out.
I also said that they were supposed to call my home phone first if an alarm has gone off. Their instructions were to call our home and if they couldn't get our home, to try all our cellphones. I was then told that I can talk to customer service and get that changed in priority. It was very embarrassing for all the fire trucks to be here. But they didn't call the right number first so I got that fixed, I hope. It was right at one time but I don't know how it got switched in their system. But other than that, they're reliable and trustworthy. When I leave, I know the place is going to be monitored.

A few months ago, I had a new panel and a couple of other features installed in my house and the representative was very polite, helpful and thorough in describing information for me and telling me about how the new system functions. The installer was very friendly, prompt, at my house at the scheduled time and cleaned up after himself after the holes that he drilled. I've been very satisfied overall. Vivint has always treated me very well so I've always been very happy with the service that I've received from that company. They're topnotch and professional.

We had a very pleasant experience with Vivint. The sales representative Andrew was very friendly and helpful. The Technician Tyler who installed our system was amazing. The system was fully installed and up and running that same day and though we haven't had it very long we are already completely impressed with the system. We are very happy we switched and would recommend the system and service to our family and friends.

I have tried to contact Vivint customer service several times in the last few months. I have been on hold for hours, just being transferred from one customer service representative to another. And the result is always the same, the person I need to speak with is not available, and will return my call as soon as possible. It's been 6 months, I haven't received a call yet.

This evening I was doing some chores around the house when one of your salesmen approached me outside of my home. His name was Wyatt something. Anyway he pitched the product and answered a lot of our concerns. Some of the main selling factors had to do with us savings money on our homeowner's insurance and our heating and cooling bills. After 45 minutes of talking, I told him that we will need 24 hours to do some research, like contacting our insurance agent, etc. Now here's the issue. He would not stop talking. I politely asked to please come back tomorrow, but he still kept going. I told him he was losing the deal, yes he still kept talking. Finally I had to raise my voice and tell him to leave my property. Then the guy finally walked to the street and began shouting at me that he didn't need my business. Well that is exactly what he got - none of my business. Goodbye buddy!

If you are planning on investing in an alarm system... DO NOT CHOOSE VIVINT!!! Here are a few of the many many issues that I have had with Vivint since the day my system was installed: control panel was placed too far from master bedroom... cannot hear person when the alarm went off... plus if someone was in my home... going out to the panel would be dangerous. False alarms by the multiples. Had to leave my business many times to find nothing was out of order. Police coming to my home... Thankfully I have not yet been charged money for this. Then motion detectors not detecting and was most likely not sensing for months... false sense of security at a hefty monthly cost! Kept sending same tech. I felt he was unreliable plus even he was complaining about Vivint. This made me feel even less than secure.
Vivint replaced the motion detectors a few times then told me that they will no longer replace them and that I was to have to pay!!! Then they offered to put glass breaks in and I did not want that. I said I want motion detectors and that that was what my contract states. Vivint called the tech and told him to leave and that there was nothing else they were willing to do!!! WOW!!!
To this day I have not been able to set my alarm for away... whether I am at home or away, and Vivint still takes my 110.00 per month with no worries or conscience. I had to step away from this as you can imagine frustrating stressful situation and not allow it to affect me, however typing this complaint is giving me new incentive to deal with this company in a more legal and professional manner. A letter will be drawn up from my lawyer and I may sue for damages. I am seriously considering calling global news to come to my home as well people need to be warned about this company. I honestly cannot believe the awful customer service that has been displayed. Once again... steer very clear of VIVINT.

I was told Glass Smash sensors would work in a 900 sq ft area. This is wrong. I was told the installation technician will be checking each of the window sensors to make sure they work which would allot for the 3-4 hours of him being here. This was wrong. The tech knew nothing of this. Had I not mentioned it, it would never have been done. So, now I need to get more glass smash sensors, which I wasn't anticipating - cost or taking more time out of my schedule to have this done. I explained my needs very well - coverage for my dogs, fire, windows and doors. That's what I cared most about. This is all after being very upset from a previous experience at another company. Just very unsettling. I was also told I had '30 days to edit the package'. I received a questionable look when I mentioned that. I go on to chat to see if I can find a quick answer and get told for the second time they couldn't help me. Why even have a chat if all they do is defer?

We have the home and health alert system from Vivint since we needed them as my husband is handicapped. We've had a good experience except at one point when I had to report them to the Minnesota Attorney General. My husband is 95 years old and he cannot hear over the phone. Vivint said that he agreed to another four-year contract and that we were bound to it. They said they recorded the message. I wasn’t home at that time that my husband took the phone call. He didn’t even know who he was talking to.
Also, we've been with Vivint for over four years and we'll continue to be with them, but we do not have a contract. They were not nice to us at that time and they said that we would be liable for somewhere between $3,000 and $4,000. I called the Minnesota Attorney General’s Office and they got on it right away. They said that they find so many scams with security systems with elderly people. They took care of the issue and they said that if this ever happened again, Vivint would not be able to sell their product in Minnesota.
Other than that, Vivint has given us good service and we don’t intend to drop them. We've had some things go wrong, but Vivint helped us. We previously had a security system in this house and we still had a lot of the old sensors. When the Vivint sensors were installed, the old ones were not changed and the original sensors from a previous security system we used. They're going out one by one. We had to have a serviceman come out four times to get this all straightened out. They took care of it and then they gave us the new sensors for the ones that went out. There are probably two sensors from the old system that have never been changed, though.

I’ve been thinking about an alarm system. I'm living alone and I get anxious and nervous. Also, I feel like I needed to have the alarm when I was away. One of Vivint's sales gentlemen came by my house. I had never heard of Vivint so I sat down and talked with the young man for a while. I felt comfortable with him, so then we came inside and he gave me a demonstration. All of my equipment ended up not costing me anything, and that was a big plus because the local company charges a lot.
Plus, I like the technology that Vivint had where I could manipulate my air, my lights and my alarm with my phone. And because I’m tech savvy, I like that kind of thing. I had not seen it offered locally, so I went with Vivint. I didn’t get the doorbell camera yet, but I have three cameras now. I have two glass break alarms. All my doors are connected for when they open or close. I’ve got four lights hooked up, and I like that at night because on the timer where it comes on and off I can open my phone up and cut the light off. It’s so convenient. I also have the emergency necklace. I have pulmonary hypertension. I haven’t really worn it a lot but it’s hanging on my bed in case I need it at night. I’ve not been well lately, so I have the comfort of knowing I carry it around my neck now if I need it. I feel much more secure and safe with the product.
The gentleman who came and installed all the equipment was very nice. He told me if I would refer anyone he would give me a credit. I referred my sister and she now has Vivint, and he did give me a $50 promotion, which was very nice. He was a genuine young man. I was pleased with the representative that was sent. One gentleman came back because I had a problem with something and he came to fix it.
And he upsold me into another fire alarm in my bedroom since I keep that door closed a lot because I have two cats back in that section. He upgraded me. I had to pay for all of it, but I got one of the high definition cameras, which I like much better than the original ones that I purchased because the picture is much clearer on it. He was a very nice gentleman as well. They were all very nice and they cleaned up after themselves. And the people I’ve talked with online when I’ve had an issue had been very patient with me and walked through every step with me. We were able to do a lot just by phone rather than having to have someone come out. I’ve been extremely pleased with everything.

And then, someone who knew we weren’t using the alarm, break-in our house and stole my jewelry so I needed to put an alarm back in the house. Also, I work at the hospital and work for long hours. When I leave at 6:00 in the morning, I don’t get back until 9:00 in the evening. I then got Vivint and I’ve been with them for a couple of years now.
I am very satisfied because I know how to turn it on and off. It’s easy to use and that’s what I want. They came and changed the system over to Verizon now. I have the alarm that chimes when the door opens and closes. I have the monitor inside, which I can see from my phone. I haven’t done that in a while, though.

We want to be protected since it's just me and my husband, so I got the service from Vivint when they had some agents out. Their sales representative was able to recommend the things that I was interested in and their installation team was great and knowledgeable. They were on time and it didn't take them a whole lot of time to finish up what they had to do. They also left the work area clean once they completed the job.
We're using monitors with the app and we can turn the services on and off through it including the alarms, thermostat, lights, and cameras. All of their features are great. In fact, I like the feature with the control panel, where they can talk me through it if I need some help. I can turn the lights on and off when I want to and I can use the app to set my alarm if I leave my home and I forgot to, just like when we went out of town and we actually forgot to turn on the alarm. I can also turn my air conditioner and heater off and on. Then when we had a tornado coming through our area, the panel alerted me and told us to take cover. We were home at that time and I was elated because it was a great feature. So overall, I've had a great experience and very satisfied with Vivint.

He was not a sales person - did not try to push more products but seemed to truly care about my needs. When everything was completed he made sure I knew how to operate the control panel and also showed me the app on my phone and how to use it. I love being able to control the security system and my thermostat from my phone and my Apple watch. I just wish the monthly fee was lower.

I was looking for an alarm company then and I went with Vivint and purchased their security service package. So far, their service is okay.

I have the doorbell alarm and the camera in the house from Vivint because I've been having some trouble with my grandson. Their reps were very excellent and I enjoyed them. However this morning, I opened my sliding glass door and got the alarm off. I forgot that it was set. Also, I have a friend staying here for the summer and he comes in one door while I come out the other door and we set the alarm off. He heard the alarm while I didn't so he turned it off.

9 years ago, my husband and I decided it wouldn’t be bad getting Vivint. We were both working at that time, and so that way we can know what's going on. We have the camera, fire and smoke detectors and the app on our phone and I control it with a computer. Vivint’s reps have all been nice. We've had them out to change batteries in the smoke alarm twice. They've also put the camera and the door lock in.
We haven't actually had a break-in, just false alarms. Whether it’s accidental or not, they call when it goes off. My husband falls a lot because he’s getting dementia, and so I wanted the camera so I could see. He sometimes forgets and opens the door and doesn’t get it unarmed. The keypad has helped that because he’ll use it. It’s just that he's colorblind, so he can't tell whether it's armed or not. I have to go look at it because he literally can't tell.
I just thought that Vivint was slow with getting back to us. I should've just called instead of doing the email. Not seeing the email for half a day is my fault but I don’t check email. But then it was still another 24 hours before they could respond that my camera wasn’t ported anymore. That was last Friday and they just mailed it this Friday, so that just seemed slower than most of their things have been.

Don't get me wrong, we have used and loved Vivint for more than three years, but when we were approached about signing our contract I told the Vivint Representative I am a disabled Veteran with health issues that might force my wife and I to move before the end of the contract. What I find shocking and appalling is the representative said, "Don't worry. Vivint loves veterans and it won't be a problem to cancel your contract if you have to move." Now, my medical conditions have worsened and that I am now rated 90 percent disabled. Because of these health issues the Veterans Hospital wants me to move to be closer to family for assistance. This means I need to move from the DC area to Oklahoma and live with my brother.
However, when I call about canceling my service I am told, in very nice terms, by the gentleman on the phone that I am on the hook for the remaining 23 months of the contract and will have to buy it out at $63.00 per month, or $1449.00. Who can afford $1440? Certainly not a disabled veteran. I find the entire situation of misleading a person with a physical and mental disability beyond comprehension.

I have everything that Vivint offers because I like to be able to check what’s going on inside my house when I’m not there. I like to be able to get somebody a code to get in my house without giving them a key because I can give them a code and then delete it. I’ve had three burglar alarms before I got Vivint. Also, I like the fact that the heater and air-conditioner are controlled by the thermostat which is done through my cellphone because I’m disabled. Sometimes I don’t want to get up and go to the thermostat to control it. I like the fact that I have all kinds of different control over all these things in my house from my cellphone.
I have four cameras, which is the maximum total of cameras I can have in my house. I have the doorbell camera which was something new that just came out. Once someone pushes the doorbell, it rings through the alarm system and sends a message to my cellphone as well. I can either look at the screen if I’m in front of the screen or check on my cellphone and see who’s at the door. I can talk to them through the cellphone or the panel, which would be kind of ridiculous for me because the panel is five feet away from the front door. When I upgraded from the regular Vivint system to the Vivint Sky, the guy who came and put it in was very good.

I've had Vivint for a few years before they changed the name. We have the doorbell camera, an outside motion detector camera, two indoor cameras, glass breaking, motion detector, and the door opening. So far, I'm generally very satisfied with their service. However, with the most recent changes, I'm not very satisfied at all. The doorbell camera was supposed to pick up when someone is standing there, whether they rang the doorbell or not, and it does that sometimes but, more often it doesn't. But it does pick up when the wind blows, so if one of the leaves of the tree moves, it picks it up and then records it. It's crazy because it sends these constant notifications. But when there's a person standing there, it doesn't do that and that's annoying.
The motion detector camera is relatively similar. A person can walk across the deck where it's set up in the line of vision and doesn't pick it up at all. But it'll pick up the trees moving or a bug that flies by. Then the third thing, we used to have when our garage door goes up or down, it has a tilt sensor in it and notified us. When these new cameras got installed, it no longer notifies us. That's very annoying because that's something that we've grown accustomed to having and using and it doesn't work. I don't know if the guy didn't know how to set it up or it's just isn't offered with this new wall unit. I was about to call them to tell all these things but I got a phone call from them saying that they would call back and I'm waiting for that.
Also, the installer showed me how to use the products but he showed up very late. He said he had a flat tire but he could have called us ahead of time to say that he's running late instead of just not showing up because we had to take a day off from work to accommodate him. My husband was sitting at home waiting for him when he could have gotten things done. Then the installer was there until way after I got home from work, so, we couldn't even go out to have dinner.
So, I would like someone else to come out at some point and see if he gets it right, if it can be adjusted and if we can get the tilt on the garage door to work. I would be happy if I can get these items to work the way they're supposed to. Nevertheless, I would recommend them because when the alarm goes off, they're on top of it. Up until this recent change, they are fantastic but after that, if they can't fix it, not so fantastic.

The police would come and I started getting bills for $125 for them coming and it goes up $25 every time it does. It's always accidental and never an emergency and as it's going to cost me fortune I had the monitor in the living room disconnected. I don’t want the police called But want the fire department called if needed. Also, the Vivint sign is an ugly one so I don't put it on the door.

It's great to hear that the sales reps you worked with were knowledgeable about the system and able to share this knowledge with you. The doorbell camera is such a great feature to have so you can monitor who is at your home no matter where you are! Thank you for choosing Vivint to protect your home and family!

Everybody we've talked to at Vivint have been very professional. The installation team knew what they were doing and they told me what they were going to do, and I was well-pleased. Everybody that came was very professional. They knew what they were talking about, and anything that they did they were well qualified to do it. I'm very happy with the experience.
Jimmie, thank you for your feedback! We strive to provide excellent customer service, and we're so glad our representatives were professional and informative. Thank you for choosing Vivint to protecting your home and family!

I just want to say that I'm not impressed with Vivint. My husband and I had the system installed on a Friday night (June 24) and the sales guy was pushy. He showed up at our house after 10pm and explained that if we installed that night we'd get it for free installation. We explained that we had to work the next morning at 5am and that it wasn't preferred to have installation until 1am or 2am that night, but he insisted this was the only option. So we agreed to have it done that night. Not super impressed but if it saved a few hundred dollars then fine - and if this had been our only issue, it wouldn't be a problem.
After having the system installed, a BUNCH of the features didn't work. We didn't get an alert letting us know the doorbell had been rung, we didn't have video recordings of every person coming to the door, our app didn't communicate with the panel when we locked or unlocked the door, and when we tried to arm the system it didn't always recognize it either.
We called our sales rep less than a week later and asked to have the system removed because we didn't feel like it was reliable. The sales guy said he would send someone to remove the system that evening. When the guy showed up to remove the system, he had only been told he was troubleshooting to see why it wasn't working. I was not impressed. So I called our sales guy. He said that we couldn't remove it until the 10 day trial was up, so he had decided to send this guy to figure out if he could fix it. I allowed him to fix it, but it quit working 20min after he left. Our sales guy also told us to call the following Monday (July 4th) which we did, but since it was a holiday we got no help.
On July 5th, my husband called customer service to have the system removed - he was on hold for a few hours and redirected a few times to different people, which got irritating. Finally he was able to talk to someone and set up an appointment to have it taken out. On July 14th the original installers showed up to remove the system. After they left I realized that the putty job they did where the panel was, was the ** job I have ever seen. After two days I was able to pull out the putty because it still hadn't dried properly, and when I did pull it out I realized she had jammed a programming manual in the hole and puttied around it - and the putty must've been a terrible quality because it was still soft after two days. As well as they didn't fill any of the holes in the door frames from the sensors.
When I asked him about that, he said we'd have to figure something else out. This made me upset because when they first arrived I asked if they would be filling all the holes and they said yes and then I caught them leaving without holding up what they said they would do. So this showed me EXTREME dishonesty and no integrity in this company.
Also, after all this I STILL had a payment withdrawn from my account two weeks after the system was taken out. I'm currently on hold (have been on hold for an hour and a half) to ask for my money back, and I think it would only be fair to be reimbursed for the previous months payment as well since the system wasn't working. My husband and I spent many hours on the phone arguing with Vivint reps, and we didn't even have the system for the whole month. Not impressed with this company. Will not return and will not recommend for people to sign up with Vivint.
