I have been using Frontpoint for two years. I had researched it and thought that it was something that I'd like to have. I had no problems installing it. I like their app where I can access and control my system on the go. The system is working as designed and I do use it frequently when I'm away for a prolonged period of time. I had a concern once about testing my motion detection devices so I called their team and they were very friendly. I have a very good experience with them.

We were looking for security systems and we ran across Frontpoint online. We did it and we love it and now we've had them for a year or two. I enjoy the system and it's great for me. Installing the device was very simple and once I had installed it, I had to call the number so they could just activate everything. From that point until right now, it's perfect. Their app was the most wonderful thing they ever came up with. Since I had this, I sleep better. When I go home, I just set my system and it's like I'm totally relaxed. I like the way it's set up so they should keep that.

I started using Frontpoint a little over a year ago. Installing the security device was extremely easy. Also, using the mobile app is very easy. I once had an issue with one of the sensors and talked to somebody at tech support and they were able to resolve it right away. I had a sensor that was mounted in a bad spot. They just gave me directions on other locations to put it in. They're always really helpful and you don't have to wait on hold for eternity, like other places. I'm very happy with their service.

I like the ease of installation. It’s pretty simple. I knew what I was getting into, so I just looked it up online, thinking I could figure it out. Another thing I really like is being able to control things from my phone. It’s kinda cool. But I wish they would create their own branded experience. Because they use alarm.com as kind of like their vendor. Anyway, I feel more secured now that I have more control over my home. I've had it for about a year now. It's great. But the main thing that really sticks out to me is their customer service. I have no problems calling them and getting help from them, so I feel taken care of. They've been really great.

I got on all the rating services for security systems. Frontline was up at the top, so I thought that must be the one, so I signed up. We have a sensor on the back of the garage; it leads out to the patio, and another door leads into the house. We keep forgetting that if we set the system alarms on the garage, that back door out to the patio is gonna set it off. We drove out and got looking in the back door and it was unlocked, so my wife got out and fixed it and opened the door while she was locking it up, so that set if off inside but we didn't hear it. So when we took off, that thing was ready to explode in a minute. Now what we did was put a big sign on the back door that says 'alarm', so we don't do that anymore. But the darn thing works.

I like that you can turn it on and it works. But I don't use it that much because we don't go out so far. Unless I go out two or three days or over a period of time I'd turn it on. It's now on and will be for two or three months. I won’t be home for a while.

I discovered FrontPoint when I was searching online for home security service providers and I've been using them for almost a year now. I've had other security providers prior to them, but I like FrontPoint substantially better. The installation of my security device was very straightforward and allowed me to be hands-on like I wanted. The team members at FrontPoint were always very helpful and prompt in resolving issues.
I use FrontPoint's mobile app daily and the home security system helps my children in getting into the house. It's technically convenient and performs 100%. In fact, I have recommended them to friends, and some of those friends have signed up. I hope they do not increase their price because it's excellent right now.

Up to this point, it has been fantastic, excellent. It was very easy to get connected, to work and I've been able to access it on and off. The only thing I had was I switched cell phones and I've been unable to download the app on my new cell phone so that I can turn it on and off from the outside. So I just got to turn it on, rush out the door and turn it off quickly when I get back in.
Thank you for sharing your story with us, and it sounds like your new phone needs to be updated correctly in order to download our app. We suggest you take your phone to your provider and explain your situation so they can make sure you get that updated asap.

Frontpoint security system has been very good. I signed up with them about a year ago because I liked their options for Wi-Fi instead of running a bunch of wires and things through the house. Installing the device has been very quick. I called the helpdesk and within five minutes, it was up and running. They were very helpful. They knew exactly the inside and out of their system and they pinpointed where to place the sensors on the doors and windows. Now it's very easy to monitor on the Internet. It's been good peace of mind. I would recommend them to all my friends if they were looking for a security system.

I did extensive research on the internet for about six weeks before we closed on our home, and Frontpoint had been rated the highest in customer satisfaction. I had never heard of them before, but I went with them because I couldn't find a single bad thing written about them on the internet. We have them for 12 months now. Installation was extremely easy. It all comes in a box. They had already pre-tested my house for my addresses to the cellular signal. We just opened the box, plugged in the main board, the control panel, and around the house put the things up. It was all very, very easy, and then you call their helpline and they turn the whole system on. They offered a test period of about a week, but I didn't want a test period because we hadn’t physically moved into the house yet. So we went live immediately. It’s been a fantastic system.
We use their mobile app all the time. Being able to access and control the system on the go is fantastic. We've also had a lot of interactions with their team throughout the year, and every time, they've been extremely professional and very helpful. We thought their video surveillance was not good, it had too many flaws. I was well past my time frame of when I could return it but they took everything back, no questions asked. They're very, very helpful whenever you call.
It’s nice to know we have the best security system. This is our first time living in a home outside of an apartment. We came from living in New York City so this is important for us. We have peace of mind when we leave our home every day that it’s as secure as could be. We have so many different sensors for smoke, carbon monoxide, glass breaking, and we have a lot of their systems put up in our house, so we're very, very satisfied with the security that we feel. It’s been fantastic. Their customer service is topnotch and the product works very well.
Wow! Its sounds like you got everything you needed and more when it comes to protecting your new home. Being able to use that smartphone app is definitely something that adds another level of protection to your system- because you can always be in control of your safety from anywhere.

My son had Frontpoint service in his house in Ohio and so I got one for my house as well under a year ago. We liked that it was wireless and less expensive. Installing the device was not a problem. We plugged it in and put all the little things where they were supposed to go, and then we called Frontpoint. There was no problem whatsoever. I have the Frontpoint mobile app and like it a lot. I use it when I come and go to turn the alarm on and off. I like that I get emails or text notifications if something happens - usually it’s because I walked in and set it off and forgot.
The people that we talked to were very helpful. They didn’t try to take advantage of us and make us get more than we should. They were very honest about asking about rooms and different things and really worked to get what we needed. They even gave us all the discounts that my son got and that was pretty incredible. When I’ve had to call in for anything else, they’re very polite and kind. With this in my house, I feel better and calmer. I drive the school bus and come home alone a lot during the day. We live in a neighborhood but there’s nobody behind us but woods so it gives you a little more peace. It’s definitely satisfying and pleasant and we have recommended them to people.
We're really happy to hear that you liked your son's system so much that you got one for your own home!

I told my son who's a professor at a university in South Carolina that I needed some kind of a security system so he researched on it and came up with Frontpoint. I'm not sure I'm running it the way I should be running it but it's been great. The installation was a piece of cake. During the installation phase I had questions, I called and they were easily answered. They took their time, they were friendly and very helpful. I feel safer whenever I turn it on and when I leave to go to the grocery store or some other place - that way my wife would be protected. I could call them whenever I feel I should - I haven't done it but I would feel comfortable doing it.
It's wonderful to hear how satisfied you are with your Frontpoint system, and your son was able to do some research for you and found Frontpoint to be the best security system for your needs.

I have had Frontpoint as my home security service provider for about nine months. I like the way the system operates and works. I liked the idea that even if they smashed it, the signal is already sent. I didn't have any problem installing the security device. I followed the instructions and everything went up. I feel secure that nobody is going to get in here and if they do, they'll get caught. It's great.
You're right! It is because we use special crash and smash technology, even if someone wanted to break apart your panel an alarm signal would still get to the authorities and you would be safe.

I've had Frontpoint almost exactly a year now and got them because I like the ability to customize their services and I can set it up myself. I ran into one tiny problem but had somebody on the phone with me the whole time I was working with it, so it was really a good situation. They were great and very patient, waiting for me to try different things. They stayed right there on the phone with me as I was looking for things to make it work. I love the mobile app - another reason why I went with Frontpoint. We also got the video cameras and I love it. I've got one framed at the front window so I can watch the front of the house. It's really nice to be able to do that. We don't have windows on the first floor that you can look out, so I can just pull up that camera and see what's going on in front of the house. The experience was easy and convenient, and they've been very responsive.

My experience with Frontpoint has been really good. The installation was really easy; it's nice to be able to do it on your own. There was one sensor I had an issue with, and when I called, they were really friendly and easy to address. I enjoy having the ability to access it online. We have a second home, so we have Frontpoint in two homes. If someone goes to our second house and we're not there, it's just a nice and easy way to turn the alarm off so someone can do work in our house. The online portion alone makes it very easy to manage.

I have it for nine or ten months now. There is not much comparison with my old provider. Frontpoint is by far better, more options and I feel more secure with it.

I went online looking for a new security company and saw that Frontpoint has high customer satisfaction rating. I did have a different security provider but Frontpoint is better. I've had them now for a little over a year. I was able to do the installation and myself, with Frontpoint over the phone. They send you a self-install package and you get to call somebody and that person walks you through every step. They're patient about it and stay on the phone with you until you get it done, and I really like that. I didn't have to have a technician come out and do the work. I also have the option of upgrading my system without having to have somebody come out.
I use the Frontpoint mobile app regularly. I love that I can look it up online. I can deactivate/activate the system, I can see if it's been activated, I can tell exactly what alarm was tripped or triggered. Since installing the security system, I do spend more time outside of the home now. My home is in Pennsylvania and I work in New York City - I don't have to wonder. My system is up and running. I could just go online and use the mobile app. I know it's armed and I have no questions about if anything's been triggered. I also like that the unit I have didn't need a home line. It's not dependent on my home's Wifi or anything like that.

During installation it was a little hard to customize it for the architecture of our house because we have a very old house, a hundred year old house, but they were very helpful on the phone. They sent out and returned the wrong pieces without charge and sent out the right stuff and I got the right kinds of adapters or security things and they walked me through it.

The security system does what it's supposed to do. We had very ill technology like 30 year old devices or security system and they never came to help up great. But this one we have the confidence that it's working.

I haven't had any issues since I had it installed a year ago. I really haven't had to contact them since. The only thing I don't like about it is the requirement to do a three-year contract. It's becoming an antiquated business practice. I like their customer service and the ease of installation. But I would also caution people to look at competitors because if there's someone out there who can do something equal as Frontpoint and they don't have to sign a three-year agreement then go with that.
We're thrilled to hear that you've experienced great customer service every time you've reached us and haven't experience an issues since your setup a year ago. We believe that's the way customer service should be and is also the reason we are rated as the most trusted alarm company in the nation.

My experience with Frontpoint has been great. One time, the little sensor thing fell off my door. They called me immediately and I said, "I thought I hadn't been able to buy a more sticky stuff for it" and they said, "Well, you think that's what it is but we'll send somebody by there just to make sure." I thought that was good. Even though I really didn't think there was an issue, they still sent someone out there.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! Because a Frontpoint system is something you setup yourself and is very simple, we do not send out technicians to assist with setup/troubleshooting, so it sounds like you may have spoken with our Support Team on the phone and gotten instructions and your adhesive order at that time.

Good news. This is my first system and it took some research in choosing. I am pleased with the whole operation from home set-up to the response call center. I have confidence in the system and peace of mind while away from home or while home and the system is armed. Oh, the good news. I can add to my home protection with sensors, cameras, light timers, heat & cool control. I can monitor my system from my computer or mobile iPhone. It has been a great investment in prevention and security for my family and our home. Tech support is awesome too. They take time to work through any issue or questions, especially as a new user. Great choice!

So far, Frontpoint is very good but I haven’t been robbed. I've had them as my home security provider for less than a year. I chose them because I can put it in myself. It was very easy and it went through without a problem. I feel safer and more secure. I use their mobile app all the time. The other day, my credit card was compromised, so I had to change that and they got right back to me so that was good. The only negative thing was that I had to call them to change my method of payment. I couldn’t do that online but they said they’re working on it.

Compared to our previous home security I like the Frontpoint better, it's wireless (with ADT you need to plug it into your cable line) and installing the system was pretty straightforward.

One time our alarm had gone off and we didn't know who had actually tripped our alarm, but it was one of our relatives. They took care of it and there was no problem.

I had a second break-in into my house which prompted me to use Frontpoint. It's been a year now since installing it. It's great and the Frontpoint mobile app is priceless. However when installing a part, if there were any, the business hours of when you call to activate go well into the night short of being 24 hours. So I get home late and I had the box and I got everything glued in there but I have to get up early the following morning because the hour is a little short. But other than that they have always been very helpful and very pleasant. I wanted more stickers, I asked and they accommodated. And it's great that they didn't charge me extra. They gave me another five... priceless.
Overall I'm happy with Frontpoint Security. The only time I looked at their competitor is when I’ve noticed that their competitor include the signs like theirs but has a solar-powered LED light. That is really cool and I said, “Wow, I could’ve gotten one of those, huh?” They have the same box, the same voice response, the same magnet sensors, literally identical. But that’s something that I didn’t have on mine.

I am very satisfied with Frontpoint. I've had a couple parts need to be replaced and you're very fast on that. And we've only had the alarm bell go off once and that's because the pet set it off. We have two cats roughly 20 pounds and another ones 11, 12, 15 pounds. They must have got right next to each other and both moved at the same time. The police showed up and they looked in the window and say "I think the cats did that". They told me 40 pound animal would be the lower limit but somehow they managed to fool it. But everything worked the way it was supposed to. You guys might want to maybe tweak your description on the size of an animal that can trip a motion detector.

I first heard about Frontpoint through the internet. I have used them as our home security provider for nine months now.

I was initially pleased with Frontpoint. However during the course of the contract I was quite disillusioned with the service and attitude of the people. I was given access to the system and it is supposed to reflect the settings on my system but it did not do that. It did not report the correct settings. My motion detector on my porch kept going off but every time I looked at it, there is nothing that would set it off. The place is locked and set down for winter and there is no indication of anybody coming in. It irritated me because I couldn't trust what I was seeing. They didn't do anything.

I first heard about Frontpoint through Yelp, reading reviews. I had them as our house security provider for under a year. The main reason for choosing Frontpoint was it’s wireless. There’s no actual wiring connection to the house. I can take it wherever I want to basically. Installing the device was very easy and they were very helpful as well. The team were all super friendly and super helpful, very quick to respond. From the beginning, everything was just very, very good. Also, I use their mobile app all the time. It’s very user-friendly. I’d recommend Frontpoint. It was a very good experience. I can’t compare it to anything else. They’re very good in that sense. They were very helpful. And it’s very easy to use on a day to day basis.
Thank you for the great recommendation! We are thrilled to see you are loving your system and that smartphone app which helps you to protect your home while you’re away.

I researched security systems online and that's how I learned about Frontpoint. I went with them because of the ratings I've read about, and now we had them for less than a year. Installing the security device was very simple. I have used the Frontpoint mobile app but I've had some issues with that. There had been times when it just doesn't work. I've talked to some reps at Frontpoint. They've been fine but when it came to the mobile app, it couldn't seem to do too much other than just log out and log back in again and see if it works. Fort the most part it does but there have been times when I've been in another town and I can't get it to respond. But still I did like the feeling of security. The only criticism I would have is that the console is very bulky. That's been an issue for us. I wish they would come up with a sleeker, smaller design for that.

I chose Frontpoint because my son had a system and he was happy with it. I have been using Frontpoint as our home security service provider since last November. Installing my security device was difficult as there were issues. One of the door switches or units was bad and needed to be replaced. They hired their local contract installer. There was very little clearance between the top of the door and the ceiling and he didn’t have a drill that could drill in that area. And I subsequently had a number of issues with the light modules, the location of the console. The light modules didn’t work. I moved the console around several times. The light module issues continued for three or four months.
Every time I had an issue, I called their team. They were all very positive. With regard to the light module, it did not solve the problem but they were friendly, courteous, seemed to know what they were talking about. Also, I only use their app to check the camera. And it works okay. I feel safer and protected - the feeling that I expected to have. I use their website a lot to schedule the lights coming on and off when I’m going to be away and it’s very easy to do. I am satisfied with Frontpoint.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! It's great to see that you've recently been in contact with some of our Support Specialists and they have been able to identify why you were seeing those previous issues with your wireless light modules.

I activate and deactivate the system all the time using the app on my iPhone. It's great. I've even done it from my bedroom when I forgot to set it at night. Sometimes I wake up and say "oh I don't think that I set that." So I pick up the iPhone and set it from my bed. But recently, I was getting an indication that I thought one of the sensors wasn't working. So I called in and talked to somebody and I realized it probably had been working. I was misreading what it was telling me. I also found out when I put them in, I thought I had labeled everything so I'd know exactly what sensor I was looking at. But evidently from talking to the individual that I talked to last week, I had neglected to save that. After talking to him, I went through it again and now got everything labeled so I know exactly what each sensor is doing. So I was very happy with the service, too. In fact, I had pulled part of one of the sensors off the door when I thought it wasn't working so they're even sending me some new adhesive pads to get it back on there properly.
I'm very happy with Frontpoint. I definitely feel a lot more secure when I'm away from home, knowing that the system is armed. I chose Frontpoint because most of the places I saw when I was researching to see which security system was the best had Frontpoint listed as the number one or number two. It was listed so highly on three or four different reviews. Plus I liked the fact that there was no hard wiring. I really didn't have any difficulties installing the device. It was very simple.
Awesome! It really sounds like you did a great job setting up your system and now you're enjoying that smartphone app and all those interactive features. Being able to check on your home while you're away or in bed is something you deserve to have at your disposal.

I researched other security systems, but Frontpoint seemed to be getting the best reviews. After spending about 5 minutes on the phone with Stephen, I knew that the customer service would be MUCH better than the other option we were considering.

Being able to access and control the system on the go is a good thing. It works out fine. When I set everything up and called to have it activated, the reps were all very polite and it worked out real well.

I have used Frontpoint as our home security service provider for a year now. As far as customer service goes, there is no comparison with ADT, my old home security service provider. Frontpoint is much better. What I did was I ordered online with the help of one of the Frontpoint representatives at the 1-800 number and I received it through FedEx or UPS, and when I received it, I organized everything and when I was ready to start installing it, I called their 1-800 number again and they took me through the entire process.
Their team went through installation processes or any other questions that I’ve had. They were always courteous and professional. They always put the time. Even when it would take me time to do something, they stayed on the line and they waited until I was ready and then we moved on. Also, I use their mobile phone app often. It’s very important to me to access it, because of my travel schedule and other things that I do with my family, accessibility for others. I can control who can come into the house. It had cameras. I can see around my home. There are so many benefits that I can do online when I’m not at home.
As far as security goes, the biggest one is feeling more secure. When we’re not at home, we know that we can always see our home by looking at our cameras with our app. It’s a peace of mind. I have referred them to some of my friends.

I had a break-in in my home last November right around Thanksgiving so I went online and started looking for alarm companies because I was living alone in my house and I was afraid. I wasn't sleeping and I thought I need to do something. I started checking out different places. I called Frontpoint and they were very responsive and they listened. It was like "We have a product to sell. How fast can we get this to you?" and "We'll give you this kind of a deal." It was a very pleasant experience to buy it. It also felt like there was compassion. They felt very personal and so that made me feel good. And then when installing it, a couple of things I put in wrong, like backwards, and I had to redo it, they were very patient and they helped me a lot.
I've had them as a home security for almost a year now and so far everything is great. I sleep better now every night because of having this security system. The only negative experience I had was in the first couple of months I had it. In the middle of the night, one of the door sensors fell off and set off the alarm. It freaked me out and I was up, yelling through the house. I called Frontpoint and they stayed on the phone with me while I went through and checked everything. They kept saying "Do you want us to call the police?" I said, "No, just stay with me. I don't see any evidence of any break-in." I was walking back through a back hallway and turned on a bathroom light and there's the little sensor on the floor. That was a little frustrating, and that happened a few times. Not with the door, but with the window sensors for breakage, they fell off.
So Frontpoint ended up sending me a whole bunch of new sticky things and they're the things they use in outer space, but they didn't work although I was meticulous in following the directions. They told me "they’re supposed to really work, I don’t know why they’re not working for you." But we got through it. Most of my window breakage sensors are now sitting on things rather than up on the wall. I don't know if that's good or not, but I thought I don't really want to go through that again, having them break in the middle of the night and scare me to death.
We are thrilled to hear that you did your research and found us to be the best option for securing your home after your previous break in. We understand those can be scary situations so we're happy to hear you're safe and protected now.
It also sounds like you had some trouble with those glassbreak sensors mounting to your wall but we were able to send you out our thick adhesive and 3M tape to fix them. If you ultimately decided to put those sensors on top of something, like a book shelf, that is completely fine and the sensor will work perfectly! This is because that sensor does not see anything, it only detects the specific frequency of paneled glass breaking.
Making sure you always use top of the line GE equipment like the glassbreak sensor is something we take a lot of pride in and it sounds like it also gives you that peace of mind you deserve. Thank you for sharing your story with us and for being a great part of our Frontpoint Family!

The last time I called, it was wonderful cause I got someone who really knew what she was doing. It was a young woman who was just excellent. She was outstanding. She offered suggestions and then sent me a product. Their solution was to put a thicker pad on the back of my sensors, so they sent me these pads that wouldn't be able to be put there anyway. So that wasn't very good. But the first one I called didn't have the technical expertise that was needed. Then I talked with a second one and it was a man, and he was okay. So they got my problem solved. Overall, since I've had the system, excellent service. I was eventually able to find someone who could take care of my problem. Frontpoint's done a good job.

Worst home security company ever! My front door alarm never works properly. They have sent me 3 different sensors and none of them work properly on my front door. For the past 2 weeks my alarm goes off every day when I leave for work because it doesn't work properly. They call and ask if everything is alright and all I can say is, "It is the crappy Frontpoint Security sensors that don't work again." I am so sick and tired of this company and their worthless equipment. I've paid so much money for a security system that is worthless.
About a year ago, I went overseas and the glass break alarm went off. The cops were never called, but I received an email stating that the alarm had gone off. I had to call my friend who lived 20 minutes away to go check if my house had been broken into or not. The sensors malfunction all the time. DO NOT go with Frontpoint Security. It is the worst. Half the time, the sensors don't even work. They also charge me $43 a month for their useless monitoring.

I was shopping for a security system/alarm company due to a recent break in/incident that occurred with a neighbor's vacant home (rental property). In a few minutes of basic research, Frontpoint security consistently appeared as either the top or in the top 5 companies for security. I filled out an online form requesting a quote that consisted of name, address, and phone number and was immediately contacted the next morning by Sahil **, a security consultant with Frontpoint.
I'm writing this review because Sahil demonstrated outstanding customer service with this consult. He was friendly, polite, easy to understand, and not pushy at all. There was no attempt to "oversell" services or equipment. In this case, we were discussing the number of window/door sensors that I would need to "protect" my house. At one point, he even suggested that it could be less expensive to use motion sensors in lieu of multiple window/door sensors. In other words, he was trying to make suggestions to save me money in the initial cost.
My point in writing this review wasn't to grade Frontpoint on their pricing or the system as a whole. I can't do that if I don't have the system installed yet. My whole point in writing this review is to give kudos to Sahil ** for great customer service in getting me a quote and ordering the system. He made it easy, and stress free. If all the reps in Frontpoint are like Sahil, then I understand why they are a top company (from a people point of view). If this reaches anyone at Frontpoint, I hope they give Sahil a pat on the back, but he deserves much more (a bonus, a raise, a gift certificate, lunch - something!).

We just bought a new house and negotiated with the seller to leave the security system because we left ours at our old home. The sellers told us that they really like the system and just to call Frontpoint, sign their 3 yr agreement and they'd transfer it. I just called Frontpoint and told them my situation and the representative on the other line literally started laughing and didn't stop for at least 45 seconds. He said he was laughing because "you can't just do that." I was so mad. I've never experienced such unprofessionalism.
He went on to tell me that the previous owners "own" my control panel and I'd have to purchase my own for $99.00. Seriously? You're telling me that your equipment isn't sophisticated enough that you can't activate it in my name. That makes me questions how well it really works if someone was to break in. If you can't even go into your computer and change the billing information, surely this equipment isn't very good. I'm willing to pay the 45/mo along with signing the agreement and Frontpoint won't activate my service. That is unreal. We left our system in the home that we sold and the new owners called the company and did just that, transferred the billing. I've never heard of Frontpoint until moving in here but I'll be sure to let everyone I talk to that Frontpoint has zero customer service skills and doesn't want your business.

I have increased my rating to three stars due to the fact it is finally up and running, and now seems to work fine. Initially, two pieces were defective and two could not be picked up by the panel (They needed long range). So the replacement pieces were sent. Upon receiving, they neglected to send one replacement. So now I had to wait again. When that finally arrived, and all got set up, an additional sensor was not picked up. I was told this was due to the door being metal, and a replacement had to be sent for this one. Why was the question of metal not brought up by them initially?
All in all, it took almost three weeks to get up and running. I am very concerned about the quality of the hardware, and with a short warranty. Besides, the initial investment was not inexpensive. All I can hope for is that the majority of the reviews are correct, and my experience is unusual. Today I receive a collection call from Frontpoint, my account is past due. How can this be, they ran my credit card, they have my credit card for the monthly charges? This was it. I am packaging the system and returning.

I purchased a system for $487.00 a few years back. They claimed that it was GUARANTEED FOR THE LIFE OF THE CONTRACT. I started having problems last year with the control box that showed "battery failure". I called several times and reluctantly sent a new battery. The problem persisted to which I called a few times and they claimed it was all working correct and it was the location of the box causing the false message.
In Oct 2013 I came into the house early evening and turned the alarm off... A few minutes later a patrol was in front of my house because it had gone off silently. I called and notified that it was a false alarm. Then 20 minutes later another patrol pulls in front of my home. I called again the central command and told them and the operator "couldn't figure out what happened". I stressed the urgency to get their act together because I could be charged for false alarm and nobody had called prior sending the patrol. It was then that someone decided to place my account in the "do not call" list, without my consent, knowledge or authorization.
Last Saturday, Sept 9th, the alarm was accidentally triggered at 6.20 am. I received no call or patrol to which I called on Monday to find out why they had not bother to call to verify that it was all ok... The operator in customer service put me on hold for over 1 hour between finding out to finally tell me that I had not received a call because my account was in a "do not call list". I called again to speak w/ a supervisor and it took all day to get a call back... No sense of urgency or regret on their part. When I finally spoke w/ the customer service supervisor, she claimed that they had attempted to call my cell and the line was busy... AT 6.20 AM... I had check the log of my cell phone and there was no attempt... A TOTAL LIE!!!! Trying to cover their backs... NO GOOD. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED OR ROBBED AND NO ACCOUNTABILITY!!!!

DO NOT trust this company. They tell you anything to get that sale. The rep was pleasant and friendly and then immediately became agitated when he could see I wasn't buying anything on the spot. My wife kept seeing good reviews so she convinced me to try it. I let her call in with brand new information so I wouldn't have to deal with the same ** AND we got a better deal, go figure. The original rep recommended something that seemed basic for my home and then refused to acknowledge any coupons I told him I saw online. The woman my wife talked to told us to join Angie's List and then buy it through there and got us a sweet deal.
Now here's the bad part. The system SUCKS. It's bulky and cheap, my motion sensor immediately fell off the wall. They accused me of not wiping down my surface. I guess even after cleaning them off that my walls were too dirty for their cheap equipment adhesive. When I returned it they wouldn't honor the fact that the rep waived my expedited shipping and credit me my fully amount nor did they want to honor my extended 60 days trial. I had to threaten legal action and a bad review online to convince them to give me my money back. Mention reviews, it will get you out of the terms, ha! So all in all, I wouldn't trust this company to secure my family. They have negative things to say for every competitor you bring up, yet are guilty of the same things. RUN!

First I was Mislead about their motion sensors, Then my door and window sensors went off everyday several times a day. It is totally unpredictable and they have no solutions although they did try it doesn't matter the product is crap!!! It doesn't work!!!
Steve - First off, thank you for sharing your frustrations with us. Your experience is far from the typical one our customers have, and we completely understand why this would make you upset. We are just as frustrated with the concerns you have detailed, as every one of our team members at FrontPoint is just as invested in providing you (along with all of our customers) a system that is 100% secure, easy to set up, convenient to use, and completely hassle free. Based on your review, this has not been your experience, and for that please accept our sincerest apologies.
We are going to have one of our Managers of Customer Relations reach out to you today to walk through your experience. Rest assured, we don't take situations like this lightly, and are here to do what we can to make sure you are taken care of.
We look forward to speaking with you soon!

We had this system installed in our home for a year and a half and it functioned fine, customer service was great. We moved and I reinstalled the system in our new home. It's been a month now since we moved and I have not been able to make this system functional. First, I ordered additional components since the house was configured differently. They sent the wrong components. That took time to fix.
When the correct components arrived and I installed them and called to activate the system, the main control panel failed. That had to be replaced. I got that up and running and the system worked for a couple of days, and then another component in the system failed, causing the entire system to go down. When I was finally able to get in touch with customer service, they deactivated the failed component and reactivated the system, but of course have to now ship a replacement piece.
I tested the system yesterday, setting it successfully while I was away from the house for a few hours, but when I tried to arm the system this morning before going to work, it failed AGAIN. At 7:30 on a weekday morning, I was unable to get anyone in customer service. I left a request for a callback, and emailed customer service, but two hours have gone by and no callback.
I am at work, away from the house for 12 hours, and my husband left this morning for several days of business travel. The house is unprotected and I'm going home alone at night to a house that I'm not confident is secure. My house is vulnerable, and I'll be vulnerable. I don't know what has happened to this company, why the customer service has gone downhill, and why the equipment is so likely to fail.
Thank you for bringing your recent experience to our attention! Our top priority is to make sure you feel safe and protected at all times when using your FrontPoint system and it sounds like you don't feel this has been the case for you.
We do see that after you called in this morning, one of our Support Specialists attempted to reach out to you multiple times via phone and email to assist you with all of your concerns, as our customer support hours are from 8am to 11pm Monday through Friday.

I ordered a security system from FrontPoint about two weeks ago. They were to send me all the "normal" stuff plus I was going to have installed the items they do not install (camera, door lock and thermostats). It was to be installed today (7/29/14) because I wanted it in before I went out of town this weekend. Door lock, thermostats never came in and I was going to have them installed tonight after the rest was put in. However NOTHING was installed because they NEVER showed up, called or anything. I emailed Sahel before noon and he said he would find out what was going on and call in a few minutes. I NEVER got a call and finally emailed me back at 9:00 AFTER I emailed at 8:30? Is this the company known for customer service?

We had a break-in last week. My wife is very nervous about them coming back while she is home as they broke in even though her car was here. We got a new FrontPoint system, quick shipping and easy setup. We got it activated no problem. My wife feels secure, I can go out of town as planned. My wife is leaving for work in the evening and she can't set the alarm because it reads SN3 key chain sensor failure. Guess who has to come home? There is nobody available at Frontpoint to talk to until the next business day. Not good on a Saturday night. There is no information in the materials given to you to problem solve. There is no information on the internet as well.
It's a brand new system, less than 24 hours on it and it fails. There is NOBODY TO HELP FIX THE PROBLEM. My wife needed a security system that would make us feel protected and secure. Our experience with FrontPoint leaves us feeling vulnerable and on our own. There is no information on how to change the delay time anywhere, yet the company information says it can be done. How??? Only the very basics of using the control panel are given. I need instructions for programming the panel and there are none. Do not set up your system before a weekend. If it screws up like mine did, there is nobody to help you. You'll only get an answering service.

My house was all pre-wire to work with ADT when I bought the house. I start reading reviews about ADT and it was pretty bad. I was not happy with the idea to pay for another set of sensor with FrontPoint, however after reading and reading the excellent reviews I bought it. Dummy proof installation, Dummy proof understanding, Dummy proof app usage, cannot be more simple. The amount of configuration you can make in your account on the website is amazing. You don't touch your control panel (only in the phone with support to initial setup), you do everything in the website. The amount of notifications and personalization is just amazing. I just added Garage door and Lightning to control a lamp for my dog and it was a 5 minutes install in the phone with support. Don't think twice, it's worth every penny!

I purchased a front point home alarm system approximately one year ago. And to this day, my family and I have never felt more unsafe and unsure with this system. I had told representatives that I was thinking of going with their system and had informed them numerous times that I was unsure given the area I live in for cell signal coverage (1-2 bars at best). They kept telling me no problem our system is guaranteed to work even with low cell coverage because it only uses such a small amount of radio signal anyway. So I'm sold.
I spend $2500.00 on a system, sign the 3 year and now I'm stuck with a system that doesn't even work. They've sent me 5 new radios to try which never worked. They couldn't even send equipment that worked. It took about 3 months just in shipping faulty or exchanged equipment back and forth. The main control panel doesn't even have enough signals to communicate with the touchscreen in the garage. I've called them countless times and they wait until after the not satisfied money back time period to check into the communication signal and say "yeah we aren't seeing very good signal coming from your device." This entire system has been nothing but problems. The reason front point has such good reviews is because there is always somebody friendly on the other end of the phone, that's about it.

This review is intended to give the heads up on what to expect from this company once they charge your credit card. They know sales very well up to the point to make you hand over the credit card info. The rep on the phone sounded informed, cordial even, making the whole idea of DIY cell-based security system very appealing. Then you get emails about FrontPoint online ratings, referrals and such, but no shipment info and tracking #. Not the same business day, not the day after - although during the sales pitch they reference the same day shipment.
After email complaints the rep promises the overnight shipment by FedEx. The order is shipped - finally - but not overnighted, FedEx tracking cites scheduled 2-day delivery. In other words, it's not the Amazon. FrontPoint is more like a mom-and-pop pizza joint down the street, who tell you over the phone the pizza is gonna be ready in 15 min and when you show up 20 min later they tell you another 15 min. Christina pizza takes lots a time to make, and stare at you disapprovingly while you wait.

I originally purchased a basic windows & doors system to protect a house I purchased while I was waiting to move in. Customer service during the initial account setup and purchase was informative, knowledgeable about their product and didn't give a hard sell to buy more than what I needed. The sensors were timely shipped and setting up with their telephone support was simple. I was so pleased that after I started moving in, I upgraded my plan and bought water, CO2, and fires sensors and Z-Wave door locks (locks from a third-party but they integrate w/ FrontPoint's system). I had the unfortunate opportunity to test the effectiveness of the system soon after moving in when a severe thunderstorm brought heavy rain and knocked out power while I was away from the house. I didn't have back up batteries on the sump pump but the water sensor helped me get a generator set up and mitigate the flooding. Also, the CO2 sensor warned that CO2 from the generator was getting into the house. I'm satisfied that the products work and I like not only the security they provide but the ability to monitor access to the house and whether I forgot to close windows or lock doors. It is about much more than preventing crime.

From start to finish this has been a great security system experience. The pricing is competitive, the installation was a breeze, and using the system is so simple. I also appreciate their security consultants and the fact that they aren't pushy salesmen. They listened to what I was looking for and recommended hardware that I would need. When I looked at what the recommended, it would have worked great, but I wanted to do something slightly different. That was no problem at all! They gladly made the change, no fuss.
How great that our Security Consultants were able to work with you to get you exactly what you wanted for your home! We always aim to get the perfect alarm system for our customers, so it’s awesome to hear that you are happy with FrontPoint. And wasn’t setup a breeze?

FrontPoint provided the following: friendly/efficient service, quick delivery, easy installation, easy system upgrades, useful/convenient mobile app to monitor and control system, reasonable prices (comparable or better than those I found with traditional services, including my previous provider). I have called FrontPoint a couple of additional times to add features, etc. and have found the service consistent on all occasions.

We learned of FrontPoint through online reviews and going through the "How to Install" videos on FrontPoint's website. It looked very straightforward, and after purchasing the equipment, it was exactly as the video showed. The Security Technician walked us through the activation, was extremely patient and helpful. When we had pending alarms, FrontPoint always called us to make sure whether it was a false or real alarm. One time a false alarm was triggered by a relative and FrontPoint promptly had the police come out.
With the easy installation, the helpful FrontPoint personnel to activate and walk you through any questions, and always getting cheerful assistance with subsequent calls to FrontPoint, whether due to a false alarm or having questions on why one particular device wasn't behaving properly, the customer service was first class and re-confirmed our satisfaction that we made the right choice with FrontPoint.
We've had the service for over a year and have not had any sales pressure to add on new features or trigger a price increase for the service. The cost of the service is very reasonable, and we really enjoy the extra service of being notified when the system has been alarmed or disarmed. Another neat feature that customers might enjoy is the ability to access your account and view camera activity if you purchased a camera to monitor the premise.
Our only one complaint is the inconsistent detection of the sensor that's attached on the garage door, which detects the angle of when the door is opened or closed. It may work better on wooden garage doors, but most doors these days are made out of metal for roll-ups. It appears that this type of sensor works better in cooler temperatures than warmer on metal doors. Overall we are quite happy with FrontPoint and definitely would recommend them. Their monitoring service is a key feature to feeling safe and protected.
Thank you for your great feedback! You have pointed out a ton of things that our customers love about FrontPoint, including our simple and easy setup, helpful customer support, super quick response times, and our awesome camera apps that make it easy to check in on your home even when you’re away. After reading about your garage door sensor, we are definitely going to have one of our Support Specialists reach out to you so we can really get everything up and running perfectly the way you want it to. Thank you again and in the meantime please let us know if you have any more questions. We are absolutely thrilled to have you as such an awesome part of the FrontPoint family!

I found FrontPoint on Angie's List, where it gained high praise. I'm glad I chose FrontPoint. The system was super easy to install, and customer service was very friendly, NOT pushy (much appreciated) and professional. I also like that I can arm the system remotely when I'm at work; use it after my house cleaners leave the house. So far, the system did not need to get "into action" as there were no break-in attempts; therefore, I cannot report on how everything works in an emergency. And I hope it stays that way. I recommend FrontPoint to friends and neighbors and would install it myself any moment again.
Thanks so much for the great recommendation! We are absolutely honored that you tell your friends and neighbors about us.

We had a pleasant experience with FrontPoint right from the start. The Sales Consultant that we spoke with worked diligently to get us the best deal and exactly what we needed for our home. Shipping was fast, and the packaging was very neat and organized, which made installation a breeze. We had ordered our system before we moved into our new home. With FrontPoint's fast and easy installation, we were able to completely set everything up in under 30 minutes, head to dinner and access everything from our cell phones - all before we even moved in. A few months after we installed the system, we decided to add another sensor. Again the Sales Consultant was very helpful and our new sensor was shipped right away and only took a phone call to activate. We also love the option of multiple disarming codes. This way we know exactly who has armed and/or disarmed the system. We can also supply our dog sitter a temporary code when we are away. We are extremely satisfied with our FrontPoint Security System and would choose no other. Highly Recommended.
Thanks for your wonderful recommendation! It sounds like you have had a great overall experience with FrontPoint so far and rest assured, this is only the beginning.

Installation of the system is very easy and can be done in only a few minutes. The one complaint I have is that all sensors are designed to use two-sided tape, which can damage walls and be very difficult to remove from the wall/sensor. I would prefer to screw-install sensors, as small holes are much easier to repair. I also wish the sensors were white instead of off-white. However, the operation of the system and reliability has been superb. I did have two sensors that had issues - one was a garage door sensor that would often trigger an alarm for no reason - the explanation was due to either movement when the wind shook the door or a sensor range issue (too far away from panel).
Frontpoint quickly sent me a normal door sensor (at no cost) to try it on my garage door. It also had false-alarm problems, so again, at no cost, Frontpoint sent me a long-range door sensor, which solved my problem. Every time I've contacted their customer service, I've been very impressed and pleased - Frontpoint has some of the best service of any company I've ever contacted. The equipment and plans are price competitive. I highly recommend Frontpoint to anyone. Remote access via a cell phone is a great feature. However, my phone often loses communication with the system (I don't get notifications); however, this is not technically a FrontPoint issue, as the app and web services are based on alarm.com.
