I was an ADT customer for over six… I was an ADT customer for over six years. The service was passable until I moved from Georgia to Texas. I contacted ADT to transfer my service, expecting a straightforward process. The agent seemed eager to assist and even offered a free system for my new home. However, a supposed $5 fee turned into a $250 charge. When I attempted to rectify this, I faced a marathon of over 14 calls and 6 hours, speaking with multiple agents, some of whom were rude and condescending. Despite promises of assistance, I was repeatedly put on hold (longest wait was 50 mins), shuffled between departments, and required to reverify my identity and explain the situation each time, all without resolution. I was told I would receive a call back, which never came. Two days later, I contacted them again, only to be told I had to return the "free" system before any refund would be processed. They claimed it would take 7 to 10 days to refund my money after returning the system, which was frustrating given the immediate nature of the original charge. Then, “we will send you a new system and re-setup your account”. This made no sense. Ultimately, I decided to sever ties with ADT and requested a cancellation of my service. They informed me that cancellation would take 30 days during which I was billed for another month. Despite assurances of cancellation, I had to follow up again after being notified of a failed security check on my system (duh, it doesn’t exist anymore) and being charged another monthly fee. They finally confirmed my account was closed and refunded the last monthly payment, though not immediately. This experience showed me ADT's inefficiency and poor customer handling, especially in rectifying their own errors. Their process seems designed to discourage problem resolution, leaving me to question their efficacy in actual security situations. I will not be using ADT again and advise others to consider their customer service track record when choosing a security service. Update: they replied below asking me to take yet another step to fix their error. They clearly don’t understand customer service. There is no fixing it at this point. ADT had a ton of opportunity to fix my issue. Considering that all you find online about their customer service are complaints, they should be proactive in handling these issues. Maybe fire whomever runs their customer experience division. Start there.

Their equipment and service is garbage Their equipment is garbage, customer service not much better. You can’t understand what 1/2 of them are staying and whenever there is an equipment issue, they just pass you off to another associate who also can’t help and so you get passed to someone else and on and on! It’s a joke!

Look elsewhere Look elsewhere! ADT adds unnecessary complexity at every opportunity. They have 3 different websites you have to deal with if you get both the alarm system and camera system. Then if you sign-up for the auto monthly payment and ever change your credit card, the system can't handle the change becasue it's two separate bills but it doesn't tell you that (unbelievable). It took me 5 days and a couple calls with their customer service who barely speak English to finally get it all sorted out. With today's technological capabilities this type of account credit card modification should take 1-2 minutes but with ADT it unfortunately takes days and a tremendous amount of frustration. Soooo unnecessary! Wish I had gone elsewhere.

worst company I have ever done business… worst company I have ever done business with. Through false alarms, alarms going off AFTER events to us attempting to get our CO and sell our house. The tech said it would be free of charge, they came here and tried to bill me. I told them I just need a review that my equipment is in working order to sell my house, after all I was a customer for 25 years. The tech called his manager who refused the service. Stay far away, you are better off keeping your doors wide open.

Worst company ever Worst company ever! Bought the most expensive system 11 months ago. Nothing but problems. Multiple service calls and techs coming out (that I get charged for!). We finally turned the system off and it STILL alarms in the middle of the night. Had a house sitter here while on vacation and the system drove her crazy. ADT refuses to give me my money back and pick up their system. Going to refer this to my attorney.
