Our editor’s take on SafeStreets

SafeStreets generally provides reliable and effective home security solutions, and its installation and setup process is well received by many ConsumerAffairs reviewers. While it charges installation fees, paying them could be worth it if you want to be sure the system is installed correctly.

SafeStreets plans and pricing

SafeStreets offers several security plans and packages, though you’ll typically need to call for a free quote to get an idea of its pricing.

SafeStreets plans

All plans come with professional monitoring, customized security systems, optional two-way voice and a maintenance warranty. Contracts are generally available for two or three years.

SafeSteets also offers Secure, Smart and Complete protection plans, which offer the same features as the Remote Plan, Control Plan and Video and Automation Plan, respectively.

SafeStreets monitoring costs

SafeStreets’s monthly monitoring fees typically start at $36.99 with a 36-month monitoring agreement, which comes to a total of $1,331.64 over three years. In California, a 24-month monitoring agreement is required for a $36.99 per month plan, which comes to a total of $887.76 over two years.

Its plans typically come with either a $99 or $199 installation fee, according to its website, though it’s not clear if this is a separate fee from the installation fees associated with its specific plans. If you cancel early, termination fees will apply. You may also need to pay local permitting fees and activation fees.

SafeStreets equipment

SafeStreets installs all equipment professionally, and each installation comes with a six-month money-back guarantee. SafeStreets offers smart technology such as:

  • Video doorbell cameras
  • Remote access
  • Mobile app to arm and disarm, control smart devices and receive text alerts
  • Door and window sensors
  • Carbon monoxide detectors

    I just wanna say when it comes to customer satisfaction, technician Anthony is on point. Mind you, my appointment window was from 8 o'clock am to 12 o'clock pm ...Anthony showed up at 7:54 am and was ready to work. He even cleaned up after himself as he worked along setting up one piece of equipment to the other, as well as showing me what he was installing and explained each piece. Then he helped me get all my applications set up and gave a full description on how to use my new equipment, then once said and done, answered any questions I had to ask. I would definitely recommend this company's service hands down. Thank you, Anthony.

    I wanted to share some praise for our technician, Anthony, who handled our recent installation. He was prompt, courteous, and highly professional from start to finish. Anthony did an excellent job installing our security cameras and made sure we felt completely comfortable with the new equipment by explaining how everything works and showing us how to use the system. To top it off, he even cleaned up his work area with a small vacuum before he left. Exceptional service!

      Excellent experience with my ADT technician, Scott. He did a fantastic job with the installation and made sure everything was set up properly before leaving. He was extremely knowledgeable about the equipment and took the time to explain how everything worked, answer all of my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable using the system.

      He was professional, courteous, efficient, and clearly takes pride in his work. It’s great to have someone who not only knows the product inside and out but also provides excellent customer service. I’m very happy with the installation and would highly recommend him to anyone getting an ADT system installed. Definitely a 5-star experience!

      Sent To: compliance@safestreets.com. No response. I acquired the services of Safe Streets security systems in March 2026 after purchasing my new home. The builder provided incentives to include contracting with Safe Streets for installation of doorbell camera and security front door lock with keypad, allowing homeowner to pay only $34 per month for monitoring. Upon contracting with Safe Streets, I was charged installation fees and the cost for monitoring services doubled. The alarm system continues to malfunction from first installed to present, charging my credit card $100 for service without authorization. I am requesting a full refund of all payments, an experienced technician to solve the problem with the system, and then charge the appropriate rate of $34 for monitoring services. If Safe Streets refuses, I am requesting cancellation of services and removal of their equipment.

      Less than one week from installation, I look at my credit card statement. I see the $249 activation fee, normal and talked about over the phone when I signed up. Then there is a charge for over $2,200 - to which I thought I was paying for the entire 36 month contract in full- at a prorated amount for paying it in full vs monthly. Then there’s another charge for $82 for a monthly installment fee. I called the rep I signed up with, and she transferred me elsewhere. I tried to explain that all I wanted was what I signed up for on the phone, not a bunch of extra equipment that I have no idea what it means- but then my lack of knowledge in their business Sales techniques and tactics end up hurting me. I had a bunch of add-on crap that was NOT apart of whatever I signed up for. I mentioned that multiple times to the technician here.

      Before I paid over $2200, I came back to him and said that my husband and I were told we were getting a promotion for free install and free equipment… And he brushed that off that we were getting a discount. Did not go in to what the actual charge was for which was additional equipment - that I didn’t ask for or nor was a additional charge. Mind you he was here for four hours to install a control panel and two outside cameras. That’s all I signed up for in the beginning on the phone. In addition now I have these window alarms that are practically stickers that I can’t even roll up my window blinds without hitting, then sending alarms that it’s tampering with it. These sensors literally stick on, but yet I can’t get those taken away and off the bill, even though again- I did not ask for that when I signed up.

      My technician really was a cool, kind kid. But hindsight, I don’t think he really understood what he was signing me up for when I repeatedly did not ask for anything extra. Allegedly I also have a doorbell, which I remember telling him I only signed up to get two cameras, and I wanted those to be outside. Now I have a doorbell drilled into the brick of my home. No I’m stuck in a contract for three years and I can’t wait for it to be over already. I would not recommend this to any of my family, friends or neighbors.

      I bought a Google doorbell V2 wired to replace my existing Google Nest doorbell camera. The technician was not able to install the doorbell to where it worked properly with my existing chime, and instead of resolving the issue, replaced my camera that I bought with an ADT camera. He said it was the exact same doorbell camera. Tonight I tried to get the 24/7 recording set up, and discovered that what he gave me is a battery version, not a wired version, and the battery version does not support 24/7 recording. And now he has the doorbell camera that I bought from Google. I want the original doorbell camera returned to me and installed by someone who knows how to install the google v2 wired doorbell camera that I bought.

      ADT/SafeStreet are dishonest!!! Promised me a security system for my house, woodshop and laser building. Installed equipment but was told needed a repeater as laser shop is 150 ft away. April 14th. Told me monitoring fee $71. Per month. Then hit me with equipment cost $5700. Which had a loan through Synchrony $131. Per month. They started charging monitoring fee immediately and weren't finished until May 27th.

      Then I get a late payment bill for Synchrony. Are you kidding? I yelled at them stating how can you charge when system hasn't even worked. "Well we're sorry. Here is $142.80 rebate.." Still Charged!! Said cancel this contract!!! "Well that will be a fee of 1/3rd of the contract. But if you pay for a 2nd contract your system will work properly." I Then said take it all out!!! District Manager offers $2000 rebate and security only on the laser shop. Been 6 weeks and still haven't received the $2k. Don't do business with these people. I'm really tempted on taking them to court. BTW there still sensors and cameras having issues.

      Well now I have everything canceled. Finally after almost 2 months of dealing with these people they said they was going to refund me my one payment but still haven’t and I had to send bank statements to some other department to get my other payment that they still haven’t gotten ahold of me yet and now they are telling me that I have to wait another week for one payment to process from adt to safestreets then me so if I was y'all I would not DEAL WITH SAFESTREETS OR ADT PERIOD!!!!

      Absolutely horrible experience with ADT and Safe Streets USA. The system constantly caused problems with the glassbreak sensors, and instead of fixing the issue properly, I was trapped in a 36-month contract with almost no real help. Customer service and supervisors showed zero flexibility even after repeated complaints about the system reliability.

      The most shocking part was being told the only way out was to pay 75% of the remaining contract balance. Imagine paying hundreds or thousands more for a system you no longer trust. This company cares more about locking customers into contracts than actually resolving problems. I regret signing this agreement and would never recommend ADT or Safe Streets to anyone after this experience. Read EVERY line of the contract before signing anything with them.

SAVE YOURSELF FROM BEING HOODWINKED. When I refused to fall for their nonsense, the installer, Victor, had the nerve to make me feel as if I had to purchase their crappie service.

      At that point, I asked my husband to get involved, and he gave them a piece of his mind. The installer then called his boss who had the nerve to go toe to toe with my husband, which was the wrong thing to do! They had the audacity to say no one ever told them no. Well, Safestreets, how does it feel to be turned down for the first time? You didn't sucker us into being ripped off. I offer my sincerest condolences to those of you who were.

      For one month I have waited for 2 security cameras to be installed. It was bad enough to be ambushed. I needed internet after the Tech arrived and installed alarms on windows and doors plus monitor, but then I was told too I could not have 2 yard signs installed as they would only get stolen. I have been left hanging 3 times with delays or no shows and no courtesy call the last time to say they were not coming. As far as I am concerned, ADT Safe Streets has broken the contract. Whenever I try to contact them the phone answers then hangs up. I called through ADT who cant do anything but give me the same phone numbers to call.

      When I get a customer service rep to answer for ADT Safe Streets, it turns out to be some woman working for them from Dominican Republic some 1800 miles from where I live In Louisville KY. My bill is due today and I am not paying it. They are in violation of the contract and very extreme poor customer service. I am canceling my service if I can ever get someone to answer or respond.
