    It all started well. Then things started changing. We canceled the service. We were told by our salesperson and a representative from the company. They both confirmed that they would fill the holes were they drilled excessively large holes for no reason. They came 3 hours early for the uninstall, making my husband lose 1 1/2 hours of pay. Once all the equipment was taken down, they did NOT fill the holes. The technician said, "I’m not sure why they told you that, we do NOT fill/patch the holes." I am so glad of our choice not to stay with this company.

    I was referred to this security company by someone close and I was told I would receive a free doorbell camera, which I did not, even though I gave a referral code. They charged me $250 anyway and now I have to fight for a refund and wait 30 days. Also, the technician didn’t know what he was doing. He told me installation would take 3/4 hours…ended up being 6/7 hours out of my Friday and he still didn’t complete the setup. My thermostat is not even mounted or installed and now I have to waste more time for another installation appt for Monday. On top of that, I had to request for a new technician because they were going to send the same guy. Incredulous!!

    From the time Josh knocked on the door to the time Jerry was done with the install, the team was very easy to talk to and enjoyable to be with. The product is top notch and easy to figure out (coming from someone who is not the best with tech). My home feels more secure and the team made sure to cater to my needs and answered any questions I had and educated my wife and I on everything we asked to a fully extent. They did not just feel like a typical sell, install, and be done team. I can actually say they were a joy to be around and I am excited to have the Vivint system in my home now!

We spent hours on the phone with them to no avail. Only when I revealed to Vivint that I had recorded all calls with them and I threatened to file a fraud report with our credit card company did Vivint promise to refund our payment in full.

    I will never be a Vivint customer again… My experience with Vivint has been extremely disappointing due to recurring technical failures and poor customer support. The equipment, particularly the cameras and doorbell camera, are unreliable; I frequently experience persistent buffering that prevents me from viewing events in real time. Furthermore, the two-way audio feature on the doorbell is consistently non-functional, rendering it ineffective for communication.

    When attempting to resolve these issues, the customer service process is deeply frustrating. I have encountered significant language barriers and lengthy wait times, often spending over an hour on the phone without reaching a resolution. Additionally, I caution others that purchasing new equipment often triggers an automatic, non-consensual renewal of your original contract, which is then enforced with an exorbitant early termination fee of approximately $1,000. I would advise potential customers to exercise extreme caution before committing to this service. YOU MAY REGRET IT. They are not an honest company and will take your money for a service that does not work consistently.

    This company basically charges you for a bad service and takes your money without your consent to sign a contract. Then they will keep you working for weeks to cancel your services and enforce an early termination fee for a contract that you never agreed to sign. They will use a digital signature from a new equipment install and say that is when you agreed to a new contract even though you were never told that it would put you under a new contract and you definitely would not agree to another 5 year contract just for adding a new upgraded doorbell camera to try and fix issues with buffering and communication.

    My biggest issue with Vivint is not the equipment—it is the ethics of how the sale was obtained and the lack of accountability afterward. The sales representative came to my home after 7 p.m. with signing the contract after 8 p.m. with intentions to still install after the contract process was completed over the phone. During the sale, I raised a specific concern. Rather than stopping to properly address it, the representative reassured me that I had nothing to worry about and continued pushing the sale forward. I ultimately signed the contract based on the misinformation the rep sold me, as I had no reason to not trust him as a Vivint representative and I was very interested and impressed with the company based on my (then) experience…. Only to find out after I was already trapped that it was lies.

    When I later raised concerns about the sales representative's lies, misrepresentations, and deceptive tactics used to obtain my signature and lock me into the contract, Vivint told me, “You signed the contract giving permission to install the equipment.” They completely miss the point. I was questioning how I was persuaded to sign the contract—not whether I physically signed it. The fact that I signed does not erase the statements, reassurances, and representations made to me in order to obtain that signature. Yet Vivint doesn't seem to grasp that distinction.

    Vivint says it does not tolerate this type of behavior, but when I asked what its policy is when a customer raises a concern during a sales interaction—particularly when the representative reassures the customer that there is nothing to worry about—I was not given a meaningful answer. I was not given an explanation of what should happen in that situation, whether the sale should be stopped or redirected, or what accountability exists for the representative. Instead, the focus remained on the fact that I had signed.

    I spent weeks trying to resolve this directly with Vivint, dealing with repeated 24–48 hour delays and no meaningful resolution. It ultimately took filing a BBB complaint to get someone to make an attempt to address the situation. While I appreciate that an attempt was eventually made, I remain dissatisfied with the resolution and, more importantly, with the lack of accountability for how the sale was obtained. The rep was rewarded for his deceitful tactics with obtaining a commission off the way I was tricked and pushed quickly into a contract.

    At the time of writing this review, I still have an open case with Vivint that has been under review for weeks without a meaningful resolution. This experience has shown me where Vivint's loyalty appears to lie—not with the consumer, but with their bottom line and the money in their wallets, and that they are ok with whatever means is taken by their reps in order to lock in contracts. I am sharing this so other consumers can make an informed decision. If honesty, transparency, ethical sales practices, and accountability matter to you, think carefully before trusting Vivint. There are other security companies that deserve your consideration, trust, and money.

    Hello Vivint, I want to write and to say that I am very disappointed in Vivint. I noticed that one of the reviews I read had someone saying that one of the reasons they chose Vivint was because they had watch the TV show called Undercover Boss when the CEO went undercover. I too watched that episode and was very impressed at the show with his desire to grow the business and the way he interacted and how impressed he was at some of the employees. I went with Vivint as a result of that. This has been several years ago. I have been a customer for several years and for the most part there has only been one upgrade that when I called to cancel it they talked a big game and offered an upgrade which was very expensive I thought but they already had it installed before I knew how much. Well it turned out that several years later it seems that no interaction with the company has been done.

    The company evidently does not monitor the systems it seems so if it is not working they will not know unless you call them. I really did not know it. Understand that they only know what you tell them. Well it turns out that when I was finally done with paying for nothing over these years to cancel the person that I talked to only want to sell me an upgrade that doesn't evidently don't really work it seems to me. He couldn't just honor my request and cancel. He just kept on trying to sell the upgrade for equipment that doesn't seem to work and if it is not they don't know anything about it. I actually thought it was a security monitoring system. My bad.

    After several minutes of him not cancelling the thing as I asked and my now frustrations and my PTSD kicking in he finally said that there was a 30 day waiting period so they could in my eyes good or bad steal another month's money for absolutely nothing at all then if I didn't listen to him going on about going over a detailed bunch of nonsense in order to attempt to sell new equipment and get me hooked for another 5 years if I paid on installment which is what they like to do. More money for them for nothing for me.

    My Smith and Wesson 45 or my Sig, Rugger, Colt, is much more reliable than Vivint. Just a little bit of maintenance for mine is much more reliable. Good luck to all you that have Vivint and I truly hope that you all have a great experience with your Security with vivint and that it helps you in case of an event that could happen. I personally would not recommend it to anyone who I care about. I did at first recommend it to my brother and he purchased it but it wasn't what he thought it was and had trouble with his as well up front anyway.

    My name is Cecelia ** and I have been a Vivint customer since 2019. For years, my family and I trusted Vivint to protect our home, and despite the monthly cost increasing significantly over the years, we continued paying for the service because we believed we were loyal customers and had a good relationship with the company. Unfortunately, the way Vivint has handled my recent situation has completely changed my opinion of the company. My family and I recently moved out of our previous home, which has now been sold. Because we were no longer going to be living in that property, I contacted Vivint customer service to cancel my service and have the cameras/equipment addressed as part of the move.

    During that conversation, the representative offered to LOWER my monthly payment. I agreed because I understood this to mean that Vivint was simply adjusting my existing monthly bill. I was not clearly told that accepting this lower payment would extend my contract for another year and leave me obligated until December 2027.

    This is especially concerning because English is not my first language. I can communicate in English, but I have an accent and do not understand complicated contractual explanations as easily as a native English speaker. When I spoke with the representative, I was not given a clear explanation that reducing my monthly payment would create a new contractual commitment. If I had been clearly told, “If you accept this lower monthly payment, you will be locked into another contract until December 2027,” I absolutely would NOT have agreed to it. I would never knowingly agree to extend a security contract for another year when I was in the process of moving out of the home and attempting to cancel my service.

    Now that the house has been sold, I have contacted Vivint multiple times to explain what happened. I have repeatedly explained that I did not understand that lowering my monthly payment would extend my contract. Instead of listening to my situation and trying to find a reasonable solution, I have been told that I must pay approximately $400 to cancel. This is extremely frustrating and upsetting. I was a customer for approximately seven years. After years of paying Vivint despite significant price increases, this is how I am being treated when I need help resolving a situation that resulted from a customer-service conversation where the consequences of changing my payment were not clearly explained to me.

    What makes this even more upsetting is that I feel the representative was focused on keeping me as a paying customer rather than making sure I actually understood what I was agreeing to. Offering a lower monthly payment sounds helpful, but if that offer comes with another year of contractual obligation, that information needs to be made extremely clear BEFORE the customer agrees.

    A contract should not be presented to a customer in a way that leaves them believing they are simply lowering their monthly bill when they are actually extending their contractual obligation. I have explained this situation to Vivint customer service several times, and I feel like nobody is actually listening. I am not asking Vivint for something unreasonable. I am asking the company to review the original call and recognize that I was not adequately informed of the consequences of accepting the lower payment.

    Please review the recording of the customer-service call where this change was made. I am asking Vivint to listen to exactly what was said and determine whether the representative clearly explained that lowering my monthly payment would extend my contract through December 2027. If Vivint genuinely values its customers, especially customers who have remained with the company for years, I would expect the company to take responsibility when a misunderstanding occurs during a customer-service interaction.

    At this point, I am extremely disappointed. I stayed with Vivint for years despite the increasing cost because I believed the company was trustworthy. Now I feel as though my loyalty is being taken for granted and that the company is more interested in collecting another cancellation fee than treating a longtime customer fairly.

    Vivint: Please contact me directly, review the recorded call, and actually listen to what happened. I am asking you to reconsider the $400 cancellation fee and allow me to end the service without this additional financial burden. I sincerely hope someone at Vivint who has the authority to resolve this will see this review and contact me. I would much rather have this resolved fairly than continue publicly sharing my experience, but after multiple unsuccessful attempts through customer service, I feel I have no other choice. Longtime customers deserve better than this.

    This is not about my alarm system. I love that part. It is easy to use and works well. However, recently a couple of Vivint representatives showed up at my door at home to try to sell me additional cameras. I told them very clearly I was not interested. They said "no problem, we'll just add a free upgrade to the camera you already have". I agreed to have the "free upgrade" and confirmed multiple times with them that it was free. A technician showed up in an hour and added a free (the technician also confirmed it was free) upgrade to my camera. Turns out he put a new camera in place of my old one without me knowing. A couple weeks later, Vivint took $605 out of my checking account.

    I called them which is when I realized a new camera was added and I was charged the $605 for it. I told them what I'd been told (free upgrade) by the sales people at my door and the technician. They agreed (after 2 hours on the phone with different departments) that they would come remove the camera and put my old one back up and then reimburse the $605 to my checking account in 5-7 business days. This did not happen. I called on day seven, and again spoke to a representative in the loyalty department (it took 20 minutes to get to them). They said the "back office" made a mistake and I would be reimbursed by today (8/18/26). I was not reimbursed. I just got off the phone with the loyalty department again. I learned that the departments do not have direct connections to each other so it takes a long time to get issues resolved.

    Again the "back office" made a mistake and put the credit onto my finance card I used to buy the equipment?!? I have now been told it will be 2 more days before I get my $605 reimbursement. I was given a month free for my bill "for the inconvenience". Honestly, I just want my money back. I read up on Vivint and learned there have been multiple complaints for aggressive door-to-door sales tactics. I am astute and ask questions and they outright lied. I wonder how many other people (elderly, etc.) that they are using these disgusting tactics on. One of the customer support representatives I spoke to told me these people are from different states and use these tactics to get commissions. It's reprehensible and Vivint has a responsibility to change their practices.

    The sales guy on the phone did not explain things well. You can get cameras but they don’t tell you that they may not be able to install them due to your home. Not a great experience overall. We will see how the service is.

    I live in a community that has a sign out front, clearly stating there is NO SOLICITING ALLOWED. Vivint salesman pounded on the door and rang bell repeatedly before I could even get off the couch. I told him he wasn't allowed here, and needed to leave. He refused to get off my porch, said I was fool.

    So far so good. I personally just started working with these guys.. The camera shows amazing. The team/crew are great and just like us trying to make a living out here.. But all together the service was a ten. Now let me see how these bills gone look for me 😂.

    A very good experience with the installation of the equipment. The installer was very patient, kind and knowledgeable about the installation process. I would recommend Vivint to anyone looking to change to another security company.

    We've had Vivint for two years but had a house fire in November 2025. Our home was just rebuilt and I was moving things in when I had a knock on the door. It was Ezzra from Vivint. I explained our situation and he immediately got to work on how to get us set back up with Vivint. He was super courteous and truly cared. He had his technician Stephen over at our home within 20 minutes and everything was installed and working within an hour! Talk about quick service! Both gentleman were so sweet and polite. My daughter and I now have the peace of mind that we need for our "new" home. Thank you Vivint!!

    Likely the most dishonest and lazy company I have ever dealt with. First, they lied about the contract length on the phone. The rep who signed us up was "very helpful," but misled us into believing the 5-year term was for "financing" only — not a contract — and that we could cancel anytime. Dishonest right out of the gate. When I called back to ask about it, the rep said, "It's not what was said on the phone, it was in the contract." A company with real integrity, apparently.

    The service side is just as bad — absolutely lazy. After the initial install, I tried multiple times to reach my local rep about adding some other options. Crickets. A year later, we needed service to reinstall part of the system. The technician, Tom Frank (badge #2520), was completely uninterested in helping. We had 6 sensors already wired to the panel that just needed to be mounted — two screws each, one ladder, maybe an hour's work. He said he only had 1.5 hours, then canceled the entire appointment rather than mount even one sensor, leaving my family unprotected. I intend to report them to the CFPB for misleading financial sales tactics, and to the BBB and every review site I can find. Fair is fair. To be balanced: the cameras themselves are great.

    We've had Vivint before and changed to ADT. We weren't happy with them because the doorbell wouldn't ring and no one ever helped us get it resolved. So one Sabbath Day Vivint stopped by and we decided to go back to them. They stated they would cancel or payoff our remaining contract with ADT. I'm not sure if they did or not because there was a payment that came out. Anyway they got everything installed other than the garage feature. I had to get another phone because mine was not compatible.

    The tech said he would come back once I was able to get the phone situated. I text both of the guys that came out and to no avail. No call back or anything. I felt like they abandoned their customer. So now we have to reach out to CS or go online just to get the garage feature setup. We should not have had to do this on our own. I'll recommend only because the services they offer.

    I was very pleased with a previous Vivint system and chose it again for my new home. The installation was smooth and professional. It’s a great system. My only complaint is that you are obligated for five years of monitoring. If you cancel the monitoring you are still on the hook for 50% of the remaining time. Not a good deal at all.

    Worst customer service EVER, Have now spent over 1hour and 28 minutes the first time and 1 hour 16 minutes the second time. Got transferred 5 times on the first call and three times the second call. Held on the call for 19 minutes to connect with an actual Vivint employee, not a call center employee. The problem was never resolved; Vivint lied to me and did not honor their committed pricing.
