After nearly 20 years as a SafeTouch customer, I never expected my relationship with the company to…read moreend this way. I called to temporarily pause my monitoring service while our home is being remodeled. After waiting on hold for about 20 minutes and being transferred to a cancellation specialist, I was told that pausing service wasn't an option. When I asked about canceling and restarting once the remodel was complete, I was informed that I would have to pay the remaining balance of my contract. The problem is that I didn't even realize I was under a contract. In 2024, after my system lost its connection and SafeTouch was no longer monitoring my home, I was told my equipment needed to be upgraded to restore service and that the upgrade would be free of charge. What I wasn't aware of was that the paperwork I signed also extended my contract through 2029. After spending even more time on the phone, I decided to cancel anyway, even though it cost me approximately $1,400. To add to the frustration, after all of that, I was told I still had to send an email requesting cancellation before they could process it. I've been a loyal customer for almost two decades, and this experience was incredibly disappointing. A company should value long-term customers and be transparent about contract terms, especially when presenting something as a "free" upgrade. Unfortunately, because of this experience, I can no longer recommend SafeTouch.

Absolutely horrible. After being a customer for over 18 1/2…read moreyears, we have requested cancellation of our monitoring service. We gave them a chance to offer us a solution to remove the necessary wired phone line. They only offered us an option to pay $200 for a cellular communicator and then significantly INCREASE our monthly monitoring charge plus start again on a 3 year contract. Who would agree to this? 18 1/2 years as a customer isn't enough? To stay as a customer of their monitoring service we would now need to start all over on another 3 year contract. Is that reasonable? So we had to cancel, but Vector will not process it. When we called they said we had to email to cancel. When we emailed, they responded we had to call. What kind of company behaves this way? You can read other customer reviews here on yelp. Vector isn't even responding to these customer issues shown on Yelp. What does that tell you? Is that how a reputable organization behaves? We have now filed a Better Business Bureau complaint to get our billing stopped and the service cancelled. Should this be necessary to cancel a simple monitoring service after being a customer for 18 1/2 years?

Predatory practices and harassment of the elderly…read more I am appalled by ADT's refusal to honor my elderly mother's cancellation requests. She sent a letter in October and called in November, yet reps repeatedly ignored her "no," circling back with sales pitches until she was forced to hang up. It took me stepping in and threatening to record the call in January for them to finally process the request - but only after 45 minutes of bullying. They continued billing her for months after she legally requested a stop. If you value honesty and respect for seniors, stay far away from this company. They don't provide security; they provide harassment.
