Thanks to Hunter Barnes for setting up our home security system. He is knowledgeable about all of the available products and offers an explanation for practical use for each one. We never felt like he was trying to sell any extra items. In addition, due to several factors, Hunter had to return to adjust a camera and assist with the garage door application. The adjustments were made without delay. Overall, we are very satisfied with the service and products. Thank you! read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY it will scam you! We didn't choose this company. Vivint was installed in our house that we purchased last year. The security hub that was installed into the wall would beep all the time and we couldn't turn it off. We called Vivint to shut it off and they said they cannot do that without a subscription and a signed contract. The sales representative over the phone did NOT disclose that there was an early termination fee with the subscription. We went to cancel the subscription and were told we had to pay $500 in order to cancel. I spoke to customer service and they would not budge on this. Such a scam and very frustrating. read more

After almost a year of frustration, wasted time, and unresolved safety concerns, i'm finally going to take the time to write this review because people need to understand what they are signing up for with Vivint. Let's start with the single most important function of a security system: accessing footage when something happens. Every single time I need to pull historical video, the system breaks. Not occasionally. Not rarely. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. During the first few incidents, I contacted Customer Service. Tickets were created... and then disappeared into the void. No follow-up. No repair. No accountability. Meanwhile, I continued paying for a service that quite literally did not work when I needed it most. Eventually I discovered the truth myself: the issue doesn't get fixed -- you just have to fight the app until it gives in. The workaround? Repeatedly hitting the "go back" button, force-closing the app, reopening it, and trying again... and again... and again until it finally loads. When you are trying to retrieve footage, it usually means something stressful or unsafe has already occurred. The last thing anyone needs in that moment is a broken system and a technical endurance test. Now let's talk about something even more alarming. My previous -- much more affordable -- cameras continued recording for 24 hours after losing power. Vivint cameras? The moment power is cut, recording stops completely. No warning. No clear disclosure. Just a massive security blind spot I had to discover on my own. Think about that for a moment: a security company selling cameras that become useless during a power outage -- one of the exact scenarios where security matters most. That isn't just inconvenient. It is a legitimate safety concern. And then there is the app -- which feels like it was released before anyone bothered to test it. Example: Try changing your door chime tone. The app happily lets you select a new sound and press save. It even pretends the change worked. It didn't. My doorbell has been stuck playing Halloween sounds since October. It is now nearly Valentine's Day. No matter what I do, it refuses to change. At this point, it would be funny if I weren't paying a premium price for a system that behaves like a beta test. To put it bluntly: The system is unreliable. The app is broken. Customer support is ineffective. And the product is wildly overpriced for the level of performance you receive. Security is supposed to provide peace of mind. Vivint provides the opposite -- stress, wasted hours, and the unsettling realization that when you actually need protection, your system may fail you. Save yourself the money, the time, and the frustration. Look elsewhere. read more

Vivint - Security Systems Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Vivent Security sales dude IGNORES my 'No Soliciting' sign on the door and denies soliciting. Continues to press sales spill despite saying 'Not interested' days ago! This evening while doing lawn work the same kid tries AGAIN in my front lawn and AGAIN ignores my 'NO' EXTREMLY poor business practices by Vivint, seems to be an indication to their product services as well? Buyers MAYBE should be aware???? read more

Run away, do not walk. Would give 0 stars if it were an option. Installers butchered my house putting in door sensors and doorbells. Service is overpriced, and cancellation is a nightmare. read more

I've been with vivint for 8 years and about 2 years ago they got HORRIBLE!! Absolutely horrible service, constant problems with the equipment, cameras not working or recording, door bell often glitching and only rings outside. Customer service claims that my camera was out to date and a new one needed be purchased for $250 ! so I did ! And still problems with the camera :/ the main modem freezing & glitching! I'm hate being with vivent! And not to mention, sometimes the system will set itself off saying someone is breaking in the window. Police will come & say no signs of breakin. And then Vivint will tell me that it must've been the wind! I spent over $7000 on their equipment! The biggest waste of money! I will never ever recommend anybody to the security system in my life again. Save yourself the headache and being on the phone with customer service all the time. read more

Vivint - The monitor glitching, I wasn't able to disarm my system - Security Systems Near Me - Denver, Colorado

WORST purchase EVER!!! Their technology does NOT work with any other security system sensors, so you have to purchase everything new. I chose to NOT install new window and door sensors, so the only thing the system control does is allow you to arm, disarm, add new entry combinations, and watch people who come into view on the cameras. So.... Every time I get a SCREAMING alarm, I'm FURIOUS!!! The alarm is for broken glass. ‍. Considering my system doesn't monitor ANY glass, how the hell does this happen?! I typically get one to two alarms per month! . I have called Vivint out 3 times to fix the issue. Every time I called for service, I was advised there is a charge. For what?! Getting service on a defective system?! A system that I have asked be removed and I be refunded for?! What do I have to do to get them to remove their shitty products and refund what I've paid to date?! Not to mention the amount that I supposedly owe for such a limited product?! I wish I would have done more research before agreeing to the product!!! read more

I had an extremely disappointing experience with Vivint. Despite calling customer service four separate times to cancel my service--each time receiving confirmation that my account was canceled--the company continued to charge me. It's now more than 5 months after I canceled on July 16, and I am still being charged. To make matters worse, I was charged three separate transactions on the same day. See photo. I have spent at least 4 hours of my life talking to their customer service team; they owe me back payments of more than $350, and I now have to cancel my credit card on file as the only means to ensure this gets taken care of. Their inability to handle basic customer transactions demonstrates gross incompetence or a deliberate disregard for customer trust. Buyer beware: unless you want to be charged for months after cancellation, avoid signing up for this service. This level of mismanagement and poor customer service is unacceptable. read more

Vivint - 3 charges, even 5 months after I cancelled. - Security Systems Near Me - Denver, Colorado

These people won't cancel my service cause no one has come out even though they scheduled people to come out 3 times and they canceled it themselves without any notice because they said my service isn't comparable. But they're telling me someone hasn't to come out for it to be canceled. These people are liars. Bad service. Don't fall for these people read more

VIVINT ! DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! The error on my panel reads: "Your panel's cell connection is not working. Let's get it fixed." They said it was necessary to send a tech out to repair. I declined as it was a $100 charge. They said they would make it free. The tech said I needed to get a signal booster from Verizon. Verizon won't sell me one. Then the bill for the tech came through for $109. I called customer service and they said it was resolved and that it would take 3 days to correct on their website. It has now been almost a month, with no change. I have called and the reps all say the same thing. Now they are writing me and texting me and calling me about a past due bill. read more

Vivint - panel error code - Security Systems Near Me - Denver, Colorado

My deep frustration is with the multiple interactions I've had with your customer service representatives. On several occasions, I was met with dismissive attitudes, lack of empathy, and what felt like scripted, unhelpful responses. I was repeatedly told, "If you don't want to pay $99, I can't help you," or that there was "nothing they could do" unless I could provide an additional line--something that, frankly, should not be required just to troubleshoot a non-functioning doorbell microphone. If it hadn't been for the competence and professionalism of your technician and the final representative I spoke with--both of whom actually listened and made an effort to help--I would have already escalated this complaint to the Better Business Bureau. VIVINT, your customer service representatives are in serious need of additional training. This experience has left a very negative impression, and I hope you take immediate steps to address these service gaps. read more

vivint sucks.... dont do it..... i canceled with them because they gave me one price over the phone and then when they came to do a move install they quoted me a different price like $40 + difference from what i was paying... they continued to charge me for 6 months, which is odd that i didnt notice because i notice stuff like that. and now they are saying i never did a cancellation and i wont get a refund. ive called and dealt with them since june about a refund why they never had a cancellation on file is beyond me anyways i do not recommend them whatsoever.... peace of mind my ass... can i get my refund that is due to me... vivint sucks, their customer service sucks they are never on the same page... i do not recommend vivint whatsoever.... if i can give a zero star i would... read more

Vivint employees are friendly people nothing to say about them. But the vivint hardware is trash, my sister had her car right in the cameras view, but instead of capturing what happened it sent us a notification as if anyone is gonna look at a notification at 4 am.

Trespassing, aggressive sales tactics, harassment. Coming on my property late in the evening.

At 7:30 pm a salesman talked to me about the system and at 8:30 he had an installer at my door. Just happened to be in the neighborhood. I allowed him in long enough to drop off his equipment. Next day I felt strong armed into a $6000 contract with flaws. I asked 4 different people at Viviant to remove some equipment and send me new GFE contract. All 4 had different figures from $3000-$4200. I never had equipment installed and it's here in boxes. I canceled 7 days ago and they told me today it's in cancellation department and no one knows how long it will take. They also said someone will contact me to pickup equipment but don't know when. My next stop is Colorado consumer help read more

Wowww, it is 8:30 pm and the sales reps are still knocking on our windows and ringing the doorbell. We told them we wanted to think on it, and they have been to our house 2 days in a row. They are aggressive and relentless at doorbell ringing. My dog sitter said they have been to the house 3 times this evening. Smh We will NOT be using Vivint. read more

This service would have been great, however, the salesmen showed us 0 respect when trying to sell his product. On a Friday night, he asked to enter our home when we only asked for a quote, used our restroom, and continued to waste 30 minutes of our time. We did not request his service, only were solicited to it. Absolutely unacceptable and made us never want to give this company our money. read more

We got the full system. Within the year, the different parts of the system stopped talking to each other. I changed the batteries, followed the online guide but couldn't get it to work. Twice I called for a tech to come fix everything. They would not send a tech and only offered to help me fix it over the phone which of course never worked. They they raised their price, lol. They make it very difficult to cancel, told me it wasn't working because my equipment was outdated, even though I'd just completed paying it off! When they finally said I could cancel they put me on hold for several minutes and then the call disconnected. Unbelievable. I'll have to call back again tomorrow and waste another lunch hour. read more

Vivint customer service is TRASH ........ cancelling the service is a complete nightmare . They will do anything they can to get an extra month of payments out of your account . In order to cancel your account it has to be approved on there end which gives them the chance to bill you while they take time to approve this process. Complete TRASH .......... read more

Vivint was a great company when they first came out years ago. One of the worst now. Expect to spend hours on the phone with any customer service issue and several calls to get anything actually taken care of. Hidden fees that they don't tell you about but hold you to because you didn't read fine print of the 15 page contract. Stay as far away from this service as possible. read more

Predatory. I had to complete an inquiry online to get information from them and since the few seconds after I hit submit, I have been inundated with phone calls and texts for the last 48 hours. I have asked repeatedly to stop calling and texting. The calls and texts continue. I did register their numbers with the Federal Do Not Call registry and made a call to their corporate offices asking them to stop. If I was interested before, I am 100% not using this company when I am done doing my comparison shopping. They are only interested in closing a sale, not customer service or how they come across to potential customers. I would hate to be locked into a contract with them if they are this predatory before a sale. read more

This man came to my house everyday for a week until I finally came to the door. He went over the whole pitch and offered me a super great top secret deal. He said this deal was only offered to a select few people and that several people in my neighborhood were getting this deal. He wasted about 40 minutes of my time and then he left with a promise to contact me the next day. He never called or came back after I gave him my information.

Please note that if you cancel your service Vivint will continue to take money from your account and when you call them on it, they will drag their feet in giving you the appropriate refund for your cancelled service. Instead they will try to give you deals which are meaningless, especially when you tell them you already changed to another service. So BEWARE read more

I have used Vivint to monitor my home for many years now. I now have tenants moving in and they do not want to pay for monitoring service, so I called to cancel and figure out how to use the equipment that I purchased from Vivint and was informed I cannot use my own equipment unless they are monitoring the system. This is crazy, I paid for the equipment and now it is useless. Additionally, Vivint is supposed to give you peace of mind when you're away from your home. This was not always the case and their equipment for my garage door said our garage door was open at 5 am when we were out of town, causing alarm and stress that someone had broken in. Their solution was to charge us for more expensive garage equipment, which I did bc I had already invested so much money in the other equipment I purchased. They raise monthly rates without notice. We also found it is really hard to cancel and get any kind of customer service for a real solution or consideration. They won't buy back the equipment either and research shows they have a history of being known as an abusive consumer business. I wish I had known this before so I hope someone sees this before going with them. Apparently our doorbell won't even work once I figure out how to cancel our account. DO NOT USE VIVINT read more

I was completely hoodwinked by Joey. Everytime he opened his mouth he was pretty much lying. Lied to me about a soft pull on my credit which was in fact a hard pull. Told me the equipment was free but turned out I got a $4000 loan for the equipment. They changed the contract without my knowledge and still continued to install the equipment in my home without my consent! I never me a company like this before! A completely other level. I wouldn't believe any of the positive reviews. I'm sure they pay for them. Thankfully I recorded the whole conversation I had with Joey on my phone otherwise I don't know what i would still be owing! Horrible company , horrible product, horrible people. It's frightening that a company is actually like this in America....operating and continuing to do this to people and get away with it. They need to be sued and put out of business! read more

Case in point, I had someone drive by the front of my house in a suspiciously slow manner (we've had cars broken into in the past). I went to review the video, and I get a consistent DVR failure. I attached a screenshot from my phone of the error the app is reporting....f'ing useless read more

Vivint - Security Systems Near Me - Denver, Colorado

They charge unauthorized amounts, try calling and you get connected to people who don't let you speak, are unprofessional (can hear personal conversations and chickens, yes chickens, in the background). Sent to collections over payments made, they owe us over $900 and are harassing us over the payments we proved we made. Sales guy also came without my permission and put a sign in the middle of my flower pot. If you sign up with Vivint just know you will be dealing with the lowest type of people. read more

If I could give zero stars, I would... it's HORRRRRRRRIBLE! They customer service is the worst. Our service never worked in our home. We had many installers come out to try and get it to work and they blamed it on the internet. Everything else in the home worked great (internet wise). Cancelling has been a nightmare. We no longer live at the service location and we are expected to continue payments unless we can get the new home owners to buy us out. Zero stars... don't do it!!! read more

I've been a Vivint customer for 4 years. Recently updated to all the newer generation of equipment. Doorbell Camera, 4k cameras, DVR and main control panel. Works great and the service techs that came out were very helpful and patient. I know people tend to only complain about services on here. So I wanted to say something nice bc my experience has been top notch. 10/10 would recommend. read more

As many others have said, they send out aggressive sales reps who won't take no for an answer, come past 9pm, and literally won't leave your property when asked. This has been going on for years, the company trains them this way. read more

The Vivint guy in Ridgecrest was horrible. I hate confrontation and had company over, I very kindly told him no, 3 TIMES. I felt bad but at that point I had to shut the door on him. He wasn't taking no for an answer. He walked past my no soliciting sign in the rocks, and rang the bell ignoring the one on my door. read more

A door to door salesman offered a 'massive budget' for systems to be installed in homes 'free of charge'. 'No cost to you' This statement was a lie. There was no budget. It was all to be financed via a third party lending service by the homeowners. Unfair and misleading sales tactics are being used. And this has to be stopped. Cancellation and removal process has been a nightmare. Their customer service is terrible, I would never recommend this company to anyone. This is the worst experience I have ever had with a company in my life. Then they have the audacity to ask if they can send a referral code?! read more

After 90 minutes of back and forth with my sister, VIvint said we have to pay the remainder of the contract. Even though my Mother is deceased and the house has been sold! Oh and here's the kicker, cancellation doesn't take place immediately, they charge you for ANOTHER month of billing!!! DO NOT USE VIVINT! Very shady company. Predatory practices on the elderly and hidden fees. read more

Adding to the pile of folks complaining about sales tactics. Employees do not respect No Soliciting signs. Why would I ever work with a company that prioritizes making a sale over honoring a simple request? You have a pile of reviews all saying the same thing. Is it really worth it to keep using these tactics? read more

lies, lies, lies!!! attn evry single person or company who has been in a situation to where you need a trusted security service, this is not the company to go with!! the only thing valied is what goes into their pockets at the end of their day!!l they do not care if they swindled or tricked you into signing contracts that you were unaware of even signing!! not to mention they have no intention or interest in listening to your side after you know darn well they are wrong!! instead, they will offer you a measly small amount off of a bill you never have seen nor agreed to whatsoever!! they also do no care about your wellbeing or if you feel safe or even if their own old software works or not, they will install it anyway and then nevere own up that it never worked in the first place!! overpaying for a product that never worked in the first place plus the lies... oh my goodness the lies are endless!!! i strongly urge every one to stear clear of this company and stay away from advantages they will take from your individual and person situation like they did to me and my family in one of our most vulnerable times of need !! i urge you all to look up all of the bad publicity, leagal stuff they have been through and are still going through!!! they are not going to take advantage of good people in colorado unless we let them!! they took advantage of a situation that was really bad believe me when im telling you that they are not up front about anything anf will send you down rabbit holes!! stay away from this company!! there system is trash!! read more

I called in August of 2024 to cancel my acct and I was told that it would be canceled August 19th I am still being charged for my acct and told I cannot cancel until the payment of $234 is taken care of which these charges are from the last bill and technician fee complete fine but I am asking for my account to be canceled and to have a final bill sent to my address and I'm being told I cannot do that, I'm sorry I don't just have money to make a payment for a bill I have not even seen and I shouldn't be charged for a full month of August since I did not have services and yet you're "crediting" my acct when I have the equipment in a box in my garage and it has not been used since August 19th! I WILL NOT refer friends family coworkers or even my worst enemy to this company EVER!!! I have never had issues with receiving a final bill and having my account canceled without making payment Joyce (Supervisor) Badge 9025437 who was no help at all and would not help take care of the situation! It's so unfortunate that companies exist like this and continue to charge customers for services that aren't even connected and or being used! read more

I have been a customer for 7 years and communicating with customer service has been my worst nightmare. They are untrained and poor understanding of the English language. But what got me to the point of considering dumping them was a referral that resulted in a large sale to them and having Vivint tell me because there was not a code generated by myself and the salesman who sold them the system, I am not able to get any referral fee.( $200 credit on service). Furthermore, there is nothing stated on their website for referral protocols. I had the reference number of the sale, name and address of the customer who purchased on my recommendation. Its a very competitive arena for home security and this is not the way to keep loyal customers read more
