    Woke up this morning not even 12 hours after installation to a bill of $236. I was then on the phone for TWO HOURS talking with SIX different people from Vivint to only be told nothing can be done. I wish I NEVER heard of this company of liars and thieves and people who just don’t obviously care. Disgusting. And now those same people are being paid by me for my security…the horrid irony.

    Moved into a new home with an existing Vivint system and the reactivation process was swift, smooth, and easy to follow. Really enjoyed the step by step instructions and personal touch with calls prior to and after activating my system.

    We had Vivint installed last year. We love the system; it keeps us safe. It alerts us to people on the premises, alerts us to packages that have been delivered and when someone rings the doorbell. I particularly like the deter alert that lets people know they are being recorded. With all the vehicle break-ins it helps to keep my vehicles safe. People see the cameras and also can hear the deter tone. The app works well and allows me to remotely view my home when I am alerted, also if I just want to check up on it. I am also able to arm and disarm the alarm remotely. All in all, it is a very reliable system. The installer was professional and ended up spending 3 hours installing the system and explaining to us how it works.

    Very happy with our experience. Two reasons I didn't give 5 stars, 1) the requirement to use a debit or bank card is unacceptable. Please consider allowing the customer to use a credit card. 2) A little sales pitchy, in the sense a lot of information is thrown out fast. As a career salesperson, I was able to see through it and took notes, however, I could see how someone could be deceived, quickly.

    For something so expensive, it should at least work correctly. I've had my system for 2 and a half months and already had two issues. First, garage door sensor wasn't working, technician came and fixed and it stopped working again. I wound up deleting it. Now, one of the cameras shut off and it couldn't be rebooted so I have to waste another day waiting for a technician. Even worse, customer service actually tried to sell me something else as a solution to the problem. Troubleshooting comes up with some crazy things for you to try to do as well.

    David ** is an incredible salesman, from everything in being charismatic, straightforward, honest, and assuring. He told me everything about Vivint from A to Z. The person that installed the equipment came within an hour after signing up with Vivint and did his best to installed everything all in the same day but unfortunately it was already late and I told him that he was more than welcome to return the following day which he did and installed the rest of the equipment perfectly. Thank you to those 2 guys for helping me have a secure home with Vivint.

    The tech drilled so many holes in my home and wired my home so bad that the manager had to come out and redo the whole installation process all over not to mention the price I was quoted and what I see in the app is so different that I know I'm not going to keep this service. It went from $35 to $125 and they couldn't even hook up the thermostat. The color keeps going back to black and white. It's just not what I thought it would be.. The clock don't say on the keypad home screen. It's just not that good. I should have stayed with Arlo.

    I will not state rather my experience was good or bad. I will state what happened and you decide. On August 1st my former roommate and I contacted Vivint to transfer the service from his name to mine. The agent we spoke with explained the process and asked my former roommate a series of questions to verify he understood that the process takes 3 days for me to finish my portion and I would have 3 days to change my mind so he would remain responsible for the account until I fully accepted the account. Next the agent spoke to me privately. He obtained my information and explained that someone would be contacting me from the transfer department with in 3 days or less to complete the process. He said I needed to be home at the panel to finish the process. I asked if I could have the phone number to call the transfer department when I was home. He told me no, they had to call me.

    I asked him to note the account with the times during the week I’d be home. He said he would but because that department is on Central time and I am on Pacific and they don’t work on weekends, there was a very small window when they would be open and I’d be home. I became concerned about getting the process done on time but felt helpless. I had to trust the process.

    On August 2nd the monthly bill became due. My Ex roommate sent me the text he received stating the transfer was not going through because of the payment. I immediately tried to make the payment on the App the way I always do but it would not work. I called Vivint and explained the situation. I made the payment and then asked to be transferred to the transfer department to ensure nothing was going to be held up. After about 30 minutes the agent who took my payment was able to reach someone in the transfer department.

    The transfer department agent asked me some questions and explained that the process would take another 30 minutes. I told him I needed to leave the house for an appointment and had already been on the phone and on hold for over 45 minutes. He agreed to do everything except the panel testing and I could call back later to finish. He verified my phone number and then the call dropped. I hoped he would call back but he didn’t.

    On August 5th I started calling Vivint at 5:53am, well before I had to go to work. I explained that no one had contacted me from the transfer department. The agent explained that she did not have a way to transfer me to that department but she could send another referral to that department for someone to call me. I wanted to know why a new referral needed to be generated. I didn’t want to go to the back of the line. She said she could not transfer the phone call so creating a new referral was the only way to get someone to call me. I explained that someone had transferred me on the 2nd so I didn’t understand why she couldn’t. Eventually I gave up and agreed to the new referral.

    As she was preparing to send the new referral I asked if I could complete a customer service survey about this process. She said I could and explained that I would receive a link to refer friends and family. I asked “Why would I do that? I’m not going to suggest anyone sign up with all the trouble I’ve had trying to complete this process. This is ridiculous.” When I said that she somehow figured out how to transfer me to the right department. She said she would contact the person in the transfer department I’d spoken to on August 2nd to see if he could help me. She put me on hold. At this point I’d been on the phone for over 40 minutes. She put me on hold for another 30+ minutes trying to get in touch with the guy in the other department. She came back to the phone and said no one was answering. She tried and it would be best to send another referral.

    I was very frustrated with this process and then she said she heard from the person and the transfer department and could transfer me now. Agent Michah ** got on the phone and started the process. He explained what would happen and started entering my information. He said he sent me an email but after 5 minutes of waiting I still didn’t have it. I asked if he used the correct email address and repeated it using military letters (“T” as in Tom, “P” as in Paul etc). He said he had it correct and agreed to send it again. After 5 more minutes, no email. Finally I asked him to spell the email address he used with military letters. Turns out he spelled my last name and my email address wrong. He had to start the process again. His data entry was long enough for me to take a shower and get ready for work. That time it worked and I received the email.

    Now I’ve been on the phone for over an hour and a half. I signed the forms right away and waited for him to let me know when to go to the panel. We completed the tests at the panel and changed the codes. He said I needed to make another payment even though I’d just made a payment on the 2nd. He said I’d get a credit on my next bill and he was going to transfer me to someone who could take the payment. He put me on hold again. I waited for another 25 minutes and shortly after I’d been on the phone for just over 2 hours the call was disconnected again. I had to call back AGAIN so someone could take my payment. I was an hour late for work. You be the judge. How was my service? Are there things that could be in place to avoid situations like this? I can think of a few.

    I'm obsessed with my new system. It’s so easy to use and honestly a lot of fun watching the video playback. The person who installed it and the rep on the phone were so helpful and insightful. Will totally recommend them to family. I also like that my large dogs don’t interfere with the sensors inside. Also the doorbell quality is really good for a doorbell cam too, love that.

Very happy with my Vivint equipment so far..Derrick was on time, very professional and walked me thru each detail needed to get me used to my Vivint. Love how I can unplug the panel & put it anywhere in the house, also love how the camera & ring captures a lot.

    Horrible Security Company. Without exception, Vivint is the worst company we have ever dealt with, Full Stop! $1200 in equipment and we have had to contact tech support every day for 5 straight days. And today we are told it will take 5-10 Business days for them to contact me with a software issue! And this is a security company!

    Vivint seems to be a scam or at best a really low end, poorly managed and poorly run security camera and monitoring firm. We were never told that the doorbell camera would NOT send any alert unless the person was on our front porch, so the driveway next to the front leading to the back of the house is not covered. The doorbell camera was placed originally 4 feet off the ground and was blocked by the deck railing so coverage view was terrible. Had to wait and have another installer come and fix. Then there are the multitudes of issues with the notifications that are still not working and customer service is simply horrid! DO NOT BUY!

    Since installation the customer service I have received has been horrendous, when calling to get assistance and report issues with equipment representatives have been extremely dismissive and nonchalant. When paying for a service that is expected to protect your home Vivint has not met the expectations. If better service is not rendered I will definitely be canceling services and not recommending to others.
