Once they sold they have sucked. Would not recommend. All they care about is how long you want to sign up for.

If I could give Vivint zero stars, I would. My experience has been nothing short of frustrating and…read moredisappointing from start to finish. The sales person misrepresented the services, pricing, and contract terms. The sales process felt extremely deceptive. The representative who came to our home was pushy and, frankly, dishonest. I told him multiple times that I couldn't afford the system, yet he kept returning with lower prices, which immediately raised red flags about how inflated the original offer must have been. I should have walked away at that point but did need a security system. He also tried to upsell unnecessary equipment, and although we declined, he still slipped in a monitoring device for the backyard that we never agreed to. We didn't catch it until it was too late. One of the biggest issues is the contract. We were led to believe that if we moved, we could cancel or transfer the service. Fast forward 18 months--due to unforeseen circumstances, we're moving into an apartment where we don't need the system. Now we're being told we're locked into a 60-month contract with no option to cancel. That was never explained; we were told we could cancel. To make matters worse, the salesperson rushed through the entire presentation and barely reviewed the contract. When it came time to sign, it was just "initial here" over and over. He claimed his tablet wasn't working properly and couldn't show us the full agreement, saying we'd receive it by email later. By then, of course, it was too late. After the sale, the rep completely disappeared--he wouldn't answer calls or return messages when we tried to follow up with questions. The installation was no better. The technicians seemed inexperienced, and the work was sloppy. There are large holes in the wall behind the panel in our hallway, which will require repair if the system is removed. Overall, this experience feels like a scam, and based on what I've since seen and read about Vivint, it doesn't appear to be an isolated case. Be extremely cautious dealing with Vivint salespeople--the lack of transparency and poor service simply aren't worth it, especially given how overpriced everything is.

This whole security system is a Ponzi. They will not let you get out of your contract after five…read moreyears of service and they can't keep their part of the service contract. If you're out of town and your security system goes out they say you have to go home to get beside your box to fix it. I would not recommend this to no one and I imagine that that's why Snoop Dogg don't advertise for them no more.

Hi Britton, Thank…read moreyou for replying to my review. I wouldn't wish my experience on anyone. There are a few discrepancies in your response for some of the appointment dates that I'd like to address. Regarding the amount of times you called and left me messages beginning on 3/2/15 and ending on 3/26/15 when I called you back, my alarm company said they were playing phone tag with you which is why it took over a month to get my first installation scheduled. Unless my voicemail system for my mobile phone was on the fritz for over a month, I don't recall missing seven messages from you. Perhaps you were calling my alarm company and not me? For the first appointment scheduled on 4/8/15, you stated the technician missed the 2:30-4:30 pm window and arrived at my house at 6:10 pm and left at 6:35 pm because I wasn't home. This is not true. I was home when he arrived. Because he was so late, the only thing he could do was test the existing door and window sensors. For the appointment that occurred on 4/16/15, the technician arrived about an hour after the 1:30-3:30 pm window. He wasn't on time. As a result, he could only install the new control panel and keypad. The cameras were put on hold. This appointment caused a residual problem because when I left for vacation the next day, the alarm would trigger when I walked by the motion sensor. My alarm company had to manually override it because I was headed to the airport and couldn't wait for someone to come to my home. It turns out the technician programmed the motion sensor incorrectly. For the appointment on 4/25/15, this was a Saturday. My alarm company made a notation on my account that the wireless cameras were Honeywell, but your company already knew this since the technician from the last appointment stated he's dealt with Honeywell in the past. What's upsetting about this appointment is that Honeywell doesn't provide any weekend hardware/software support. That is not the fault of my alarm company and them being closed for service on the weekend had no bearing on a disappointing Saturday. I would think this is something your company would have been aware of before scheduling an appointment on a Saturday. For the appointment on 5/12/15, the technician was able to get the final camera working. The problem is that it took over 12 hours. The technician arrived at 10:30 am and left after 10 pm. Please reread my comments for the 5/12 appointment. He left at 3:30 pm for lunch and to pickup a network cable and didn't return to my house until 7:20 pm. Can you please explain why it took nearly 4 hours for lunch and a network cable. Lastly, I assume your technicians are trained before being put out into the field. Can you please explain why I had to provide the troubleshooting ideas and the resolution to use a network cable to connect the camera directly to the router. If I had not done so, I would've been waiting for another camera and wireless range extender which would have resulted in another appointment. It's not good when a customer provides the troubleshooting ideas and resolution to a problem the technician should have known about.

I had talked to the scheduling department and was told that someone was coming within a week. After…read morethat time has elapsed, I called to see what was going on just to find out that my order was there but wasn't actually scheduled. After that was taken care of I finally received a date, the technician came out and couldn't get the thermostat connected to the WiFi. He said that it was the "internet password" even though other devices inside of the store, laptops, and customers cell phones had no problem connecting with the same exact password. I had called to request another technician at another date and they asked to speak to the one present. He had the audacity to say that I needed to call the internet provider to see if my password was correct after all the devices were being connected, even his cell phone was connected with the same exact password. He disconnected the thermostats and said that he had to come back out and that the center was going to talk to technical support and give me a call in 30 minutes. After about 45 minutes passed, I called back and was told that they had no intention of sending him or anyone else back out because since the technical didn't know how to connect the devices I'm considered ineligible. So since they were part of the package, I'm looking into another provider.
