      This company is a total ripoff!!!!!!! They charge you $300 for a technician to come out to fix a problem! How is this good business? I would not recommend this company to anyone!

      We are going on our 2nd system with Vivint and both have been worthless since the day they were installed. We are senior citizens **** felt very pressured by *** to ***lace 1 set of non-working cameras. *** would not take no for an answer. Weve had to call for service multiple times due to multiple issues such as Offline cameras, panel making high pitch noise, doorbell not functioning, cameras not recording, panel not functioning at all, thermostat not functioning, fogging of cameras. 3 days after new system was installed we called for service ****re informed we had to pay $95 for them to come out. Cameras remain offline more than they have worked. We want a complete refund.

      C*** C*** C*** Don't think this brand is better than the others like I did. Go with Ring, or get a watch dog.. u will encounter problem after problem with them. Then support will have u jumping through hoops to fix their faulty equipment. But when that fails, they will offer to send a tech out at ur own expense.. as if I don't waste enough money paying monthly for this junk. Again, *** don't think this system is elite **** of the name brand, I promise u it's nothing but *******************

      Vivint ***** especially if ur handicapped. I was promised theyd help me day or night if I have a problem. It would be free if it was an emergency. The system breaks constantly I tell them Im handicapped and they tell me to get someone to help me. I have no help thats why I made sure theyd come. Oh theyll come. A month later for $100 extra for a rushed call. A month is a rushed call. Oh and they told a handicapped person to get on a ladder and fix the batteries. I guess their promise to come check the system every year is a lie too. Theyve never come once. Im too sick right now to have them come and remove it. And did I mention the equipment has had to be replaced so many times Ive lost count.

      I was told I had a month for a trial and now I was informed it was three days and I can't get out of my contract. I did NOT sign the paper stating this information and they told me that I'm still liable.

      Terrible Billing ********************************** If I could give zero stars, I would. I canceled my service with vivint months ago, yet I keep getting charged! Ive contacted customer service multiple times, and not only are they unhelpful, but they also give me the runaround every time. No one seems to know how to fix the issue, and they just keep transferring me from one representative to another.This company either has shady billing practices or complete incompetence in handling cancellations. Save yourself the headache and take your business elsewhere. I will be disputing the charges and warning everyone to avoid this nightmare of a company

      What a scam!! They sign you up for their credit card to buy the system, which they dont tell you is a third party vendor nor are you able to get a hold of them. Their cameras constantly go offline and they just tell you to unplug and plug it back in but that never solves the problem so you have to do this every day. The panels stop working and they dont send anyone to replace them. I will never be suggesting this to anyone!! They do not help you with any issues you have, the app RARELY works, and forget about retrieving video.

      Vivint has provided services that do not work properly compromising the safety of small children and elderly individuals. I would think twice before doing any business with them as their products are not capable of doing its job and can cause more harm than good.
