      As of August 2023, I have not utilized any Vivint Home Security services at my previous address. On December 22, 2023, I received a bill showing a balance of $0, and I was informed that my account had been successfully canceled. However, I am dismayed to receive a call in mid-February ****, claiming that I owe for monitoring services that I have not used since August 2023.This situation is incredibly frustrating, and it is compounded by the numerous challenges I have faced in dealing with your customer support. Each time I have contacted Vivint, I have been transferred to multiple departments, encountered individuals who are unfamiliar with the situation, and spent at least an hour on the phone, only to be met with further confusion.The failure to transfer my services and equipment successfully, coupled with the lack of coherence and competence in your customer support, has left me with no choice but to request an immediate termination of my contract with Vivint Home Security.I kindly ask that you review my account thoroughly and address the billing discrepancy as a matter of urgency. Given the lack of service, the unsuccessful transfer of equipment, and the significant inconvenience caused by your customer support, I am seeking a resolution that allows me to terminate this contract without any further financial obligation.I was also informed that my DIY equipment has been paid for in full, I have not used monitoring at all since August 2023 and you all are trying to lock me into a contract that I have nothing to pay for, no cameras, no sensors or anything and I want out of this contract

      Sent payment on 1-08-24 for services. Cancelled agreement on 1-12-24. Received a bill for service for 2-1-24 to 2-29-24. When I called to inquire, I was told it would take 30 days to cancel service. I was not told that on 1-12-24. I just want this company to go away. I do not need, nor do I want their services.

      I notified Vivint in June 2023 that i have a domestic violence restraining order against my ex, they advised me that they would remove him from my Vivint account entirely. In October 2023 I was having issues with 2 sensors, I paid to have them send me two replacements. The tracking information shows that the package was returned to sender. I called Vivint in December 2023 to find out what was happening and they offered to have a technician come out and bring the sensors. The technician came to me house however he said they didnt give him any sensors.I called Vivint again and they agreed to refund me and send me the sensors again. The tracking number says someone picked up the package on February 1, ****. The post office is telling me they believe it has my exes name on it and he picked it up, Vivint has told me I need to prove that because they mailed it to my name.I advised Vivint that the post office states they dont have a picture of the package with shipping label info. I asked Vivint to provide proof that they didnt ship my products to the wrong person, they refused. They also refused to provide proof that my ex is not on my account.

      Vivint did reach out to me, they confirmed that they did remove the person I have a restraining order against from my account and reshipped the sensors.  However, they reshipped them again to the person I have a restraining order against meaning he was still on my account.  ********************** Legal asked for proof that his name was on the shipping label which I provided, they advised they were able to determine where his name was still on my account and have since removed him and reshipped the sensors again.  I have not yet received them and therefore do not consider this issue resolved.

      Better Business Bureau:

      The person that contacted me from Vivint Legal was rude and unwilling to accept any responsibility or offer anything for the serious issue I have been dealing with for months, I was surprised to see the resolution because she actually refused this same resolution while on the phone.

      That being said, I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

      On October 11, 2023, I canceled my month-to-month security plan with Vivint, Inc. My credit card was charged in November and December of 2023. I called in December of 2023 to complain and was told that no more charges would be applied. I have since been billed in January and February of ****. This is complete fraud and an unlawful use of my credit card by Vivint, Inc. I called the company on February 8, **** and was told it was "escalated" and that my account would finally be canceled in 5 business days. I have no trust that Vivint, Inc. has resolved the issue and I expect to see another charge in March. This is clearly a nationwide, intentional business practice on the part of Vivint, Inc. and it should be the subject of a class action. I have filed a complaint with the ******* Attorney General Consumer Fraud hotline. Vivint, Inc. needs to be investigated for criminal practices.

      In his complaint, **************** states that he cancelled the monitoring service on October 11, 2023. **************** states that his account has not been cancelled and he is still being charged. **************** desires the monitoring service cancelled and a refund.

      A Vivint representative has attempted to reach out to **************** to assist with this matter via email. After reviewing the account, ********************** agrees to cancel the monitoring service effective October 11, 2023, when the first written notice of cancellation was received and to refund all payments made directly to Vivint from that date forward. **************** has no further obligation to Vivint.

      Vivints records indicate that **************** signed a Purchase and Services Agreement (Agreement) on April 7, 2014. Vivint received a written notice of cancellation on October 11, 2023, and again on October 18, 2023. On December 4, 2023, *************** called Vivint regarding the status of his cancellation request. The account was submitted for cancellation. February 8, ****, **************** called Vivint about his cancellation as he was still being charged. **************** requested the payment method and autopay removed from his account. **************** also requested to be refunded for November 2023, December 2023, and January ****.

      I am rejecting this response because:  there are hundreds of BBB pages with complaints identical to mine.  Vivint needs to detail what practices and procedures it is implementing to end the predatory billing practices it utilizes.  I have an inquiry to the ******* Attorney General content fraud division that has opened a case.  I will consider this resolved only after my refunds are in hand and I get the results of the fraud investigations

Section 2.5 “Payment Authorization” of the Agreement states “You authorize Vivint to make electronic fund transfers from your bank account or charges to your credit card, in the amounts listed as your monthly service fee, equipment charges, down payment, installation payments, installation fees, plus any applicable taxes and including all past due amounts”.

      In May of 2023, we sold and purchased homes.
      We cancelled, Vivint service at our sold home and began Vivint service at our new home.
      I have an email response from Vivint regarding the cancellation of service dated May 15, 2023, regarding services provided to our sold home.
      We have received letters from two different debt collection agencies regarding monies owed to Vivint for services provided to our sold home, after the services were cancelled.
      I have contacted Vivint on six occasions regarding this issue. I have been advised by Vivint that I am not responsible for the charges; however, the issue has not been resolved. I have been advised by Vivint team members that I would be contacted on three occasions and to date I have received no contacts.
      I asked to speak to a supervisor and was advised that nobody was available; however, I would be called back on that date. No supervisor has called.
      All Vivint team members have been professional and polite; however, nothing seems to be being done to remedy my problem.
      Vivint's customer service regarding remedy of my issue and follow-up is abysmal.
      I have written documentation of contacts made to Vivint: dates of phone calls, team member names, case numbers, and supposed actions taken. The documentation is too lengthy for this complaint section.
      I would like this issue to be resolved, with written confirmation for my records.
      I have attempted to contact Vivint by email in an effort to forward my complaints directly.
      Unfortunately, I have not been able to locate an avenue to proceed and I find it fruitless to make any complaint by phone.
      I appreciate any assistance that you can provide with this matter.

      While the security system and price is good, it should be illegal how they handle the cancellation process. After over an hour on the phone, talking to countless departments claiming they would help when they only wanted to upsell me, I finally was told I just needed to email a cancellation request to an email address. I sent that email on 12/1, never receiving more than an automated reply. It is now February, and they have continued charging me every month.

      After calling them back, they claimed that the cancellation was just never finalized, but that they needed 5-7 business days to process it. They were not able to provide any confirmation number for the refund owed or cancellation processing.

      Long story short, find another company to handle your security company.

      My services are off. I called and was told that I owe $1000. I don&#**;t know how I owe that much because I only missed 1 payment. Every time I call they tell me I would have to pay $800 to restore services. I don&#**;t have $800 up front. I asked was there another way to to restore services and they hung up on me. *** asked to speak with a supervisor and no one call me back

      In 2018 I went into Best. Buy to buy a Ring camera and was talk into trying out Vivint. Vivint came out and set me up in March 2018. The cameras always seem to be offline. and when I would call they said it was my internet connection but when I called on my internet, I was told that I had the best internet out there and that should not be what's causing my cameras to be offline. I would try calling and wait on hold for hours at a time. And I would also try to message them and never got very far. I was able to reset the cameras and start from scratch a couple of times and then in May of ******************************************* That my system needed an updated chip. While he was here, he was telling us that our equipment was out of date and offered to get us new equipment and put full monitoring on our account at $40 a month. What they did NOT tell me was that they were opening a line of credit through citizens one and also charging me $23 a month. I called to figure this out and the guy told me there was nothing that he could do for me. The cameras constantly freeze. They don't alert when someone comes on to my property. My car has been broken into and bikes stolen out of my driveway and my cameras were not online. I'm tired of paying for services I am not being provided. Anytime I call they are absolutely rude. Keel me on hold, I hear screaming kids or laughing, goofing around going on in the call center. They are a awful company that I believe scams people. I want to cancel them and void anything they said I signed. I should be refunded for their crappy a** service but I would be happy with them paying $600 to pay off or waive the equipment charges, cancel my service and leave me alone!
