      On June 29th, a traveling salesman (Karder Shepherd) with Vivint came to our house and offered discounted equipment and monitoring, as well as a 30 day trial period. This was something only he could offer, as the traveling team had better deals than the local team. We reluctantly agreed, and 20 minutes later a tech arrived to start installation. We called the salesperson back to ask them to wait. We hadnt had a chance to discuss it between ourselves. The tech and salesperson assured us that we could try it out and make a decision later. I called on July 15th to cancel, and the support team informed me that my account showed a 3 day trial and only the sales person could extend that. They contacted *********************** and he told them he did not give us a 30 day trial. They then asked for proof he said that. I called Karder and was sent to voicemail. I texted, and he denied giving us the 30 day trial. Im unsure what to do since he is flat out lying to me and his company in order to (I assume) keep his commission. This is unethical in so many ways. My husband and I are not in a place to pay for an 5 year contract with Vivint, in addition to a line of credit that we were not aware was being opened. While signing documents, we trusted what ****** was telling us and obviously that was a mistake as the company now wont resolve the ignorance of their employee and the fact their new customer was taken advantage of.

      Our camera system has not been working since May. We have constantly called ******* for assistance in having a technician come out to fix the cameras for over 3 months now. Going through the original process by calling their support team and did a walk-through via chat to fix the camera at first but made it worst. We called ******* to ask for their assistance to only get told to pay more money to receive a technician to arrive to my home. This is very frustrating. They seem to refuse to send a technician over my home unless we pay $99 or a protection plan $10 per month. So frustrated with the amount we have already invested in this company, it is painful to not receive the service you need unless you pay them more money. They then dropped the fee to $5 per month and we had to give in because they did not want to bring anyone over unless I paid something. They then said they will send my issue to the scheduling team as high priority and expect to hear from someone in 72 hours. 72 hours had pass, and no one called. We called again, was told someone will come to our home on June 20th between the hours of 8am - 12pm. I took a day off work and waited home all day and no one showed. When we called the following day, I was told in their system it showed a technician arrive and marked the job complete, which was a totally lie! No one arrive to my home to fix my cameras. This is very frustrating with this company because all I want are for my cameras, in which we paid over $2000 for, to work properly. They have given me a three month credit (charging me $.80 for the month of May) however, no one is doing anything to bring a technician to my home. We do not care for a credit, we want our cameras to work. If they cannot provide a technician, then we need them to remove the system from our home and provide a refund. This process has been a stressful process. We received no help with this company but lots of lies and waiting endless for nothing in return.

      Vivint Sales Representative, ************************* **************. On June 29, 2024 at approximately 7:30pm, **** came to my place of residence in *********, **. During his sales pitch, he stated on multiple occasions that Vivint products and services came with a 30-day risk free trial and during this time, I was free to cancel the contract without any fees or commitments. However, when I called the loyalty department at **************, I was informed that the information provided to me by **** was completely false and that the contract could only be cancelled within 3 days. I no longer wish to continue doing business with your company based on misrepresentation and fraud. Below are the issues I have experienced with Vivint:1. The sales representative, ************************* lied to me and stated that I had a 30-day risk free trial. This was completely false, when I tried to cancel the contract and return the equipment a few days later, the customer service rep indicated that the contract only has a 3-day trial period and that I could not cancel unless I paid $4000. 2. I was charged $103.40 on July 1, 2024 although **** indicated that I would not be charged any fees during the 30-day risk free trial period. 3. On two separate occasions, including the initial install, the technician, ******************* ************** was at my house until after midnight!4. The technician, *******************, did a faulty install of the smart thermostat and my house was a scorching 87 degrees the next day.5. The technician, *******************, did a faulty install of the smart lock and I was locked out of my house.6. Once the technician, *******************, replaced the smart lock back to my original lock, my door will no longer open, and it is currently stuck in the locked position.7. When I called the loyalty department and discussed these issues and cancelling the contract, I was assured a call back. However, no one ever returned my call.I want to cancel this contract due to misrepresentation.

      A Vivint home security salesman came to my home June 28th. He explained everything very fast, too fast. I kept asking questions about everything and he said not to worry because I'd have a 30 day trial period, meaning if I had any issues at all, they would simply come back to my home and remove any equipment they had installed at no cost to me. On the night of July 1st, my son left in his car that was parked right in front of the driveway camera, and then came back home and parked back in the same place. The camera completely missed both of these occurrences which is enough for me to cancel everything. I've called twice now and they want to charge me a very high penalty, over $1000, and charge me for all of the equipment, over $3000. They also started by telling me there was only a 3 day trial period, and that I'd have to prove that the salesman told me about the 30 day trial period. I've tried to reach the salesman as well but he's stopped responding when I ask for his help. This is the same salesman that didn't mind asking for a beer on my front porch while he was working for Vivint. I just want all the equipment removed and be through with all of it.

      Ive been a customer for a couple years and lets just say Im so unhappy with Vivint. Ive had over 10 problems with their products. Its ridiculous. Cameras going out for no reason, door locks not working, sometimes the house arm and sometimes it dont! Contrary to what Vivint think people have lives and things going on so no one wants to take an hour or two out the day every week to sit on the phone with Vivint. This is why when the door lock stop arming the house for now the third time after replacing the lock I just let it go because I am tired of doing it and I dont have time to sit on the phone with yall while troubleshooting and get the same results as I did when doing it myself. To make matters worse, they threaten to charge me if I dont do those some troubleshooting while on the phone with them ! They want you to sit on the phone for hours while they troubleshoot all this stuff you have already did it just to get the same result which is yall faulty equipment is. I definitely would never recommend and plan to switch myself. I refused to keep paying when Im not getting the complete services.

      This happened in Saturday July 13th. A viviant tech came to our home at 10 pm at night. I didn't see a badge or anything I told the guy more than 10 times to leave I told him I will call the cops and he told me he is the cops. This guy wouldn't leave after yelling at him he still was coming Closer and closer to me why does this company have a tech lying to people and knocking on doors at 10 pm at dark. I had to **** so much at him and run after him and get in his face just for him to finally leave. Please we want ******* to never come to our home again I felt like I was going to have to defend myself from this guy that wouldn't leave our property. ******* should never ever come to my home ever again.

      Two weeks ago I parts some home security but was never told of a twenty hundred dollar credit that I would be on the hook. I'm a disabled vet a d would have NEVER agreed. It 3x the *** of my credit card s (900)... I called the company as soon as I hit my credit report negatively.But unfortunately they said I was on the hook for everything in a five year contract!!!! I feel a real problem with NOT informing me of these commitments that go so in OPPOSITE of my low income, not working household. As of now, I. Forced to pay it, I'd like to be released from terms and have those 2800 off Mt credit report.

      I was a Vivint customer for 6+ years. We moved and no longer needed security. I had to pay $230+ to get out of the contract that I never agreed to, even though the equipment was paid in full. I cancelled on March 20th. Every month since, I still get charged for $54.31. I call every month and they said its fixed; but I still continue to get charged every single month. This company is a scam, and they will not cancel your subscriptions, Ive tried for 4 months and every month its the same bs story. DO NOT USE THEM!!!
