GBCan't spend hours on phone Had 2 window sensors triggering tamper alerts, or just going off inappropriately over several months. Police called once. Talked to support, set up virtual tech appt (won't send to house anymore, I guess). Virtual tech quickly agreed the sensors seemed faulty, ordered replacements and set up future appt to install and register in system. Helped me remove faulty sensors from system (unregistered them). Box arrives with just one sensor. Tried online chat, who couldn't help, gave me phone number to call, transferred 4 times, finally someone seemed to understand and ordered missing sensor. Box arrives with install kit, no sensor!! Another round of calls, got cut off once, second agent did not understand me at all, tried to help me troubleshoot, despite my telling him I've already had virtual tech appointment, etc. I had to hang up on him, he never got it at all. Now I have a future virtual tech appointment to install and register my one new wireless window sensor in my system, I'm hoping the virtual tech can order the missing sensor, then I'll have to have another virtual appointment to get it registered as well. I've already spent 60 min on the phone just trying to get the missing sensor. Not eager to try again. When I purchased system 19 years ago, promised in house service (which would have solved this in about 30 min weeks ago), but despite increasing fees, I guess that's no longer the policy. It sucks.

GBWONDERFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE! Today April 4,2024 I spoke to an ADT tech named Matthew. He was so amazing. We had a service call for our cameras this morning; however, the notifications on my phone was not fixed. So I called ADT and spoke to Matthew. A WONDERFUL KIND RESPECTFUL GENTLEMAN WHO KNEW HIS STUFF. HE DID NOT MISS A BEAT AND MY NOTIFICATIONS ARE RIGHT ON!!! If I could I would give him a million stars. It took him a while but he never got tired of helping me. Thats what you call GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE! THANK YOU MATTHEW. PENNY MADDOX SMITH SHELBY NC.

GBI 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.

GBImpossible customer service Can't log in to MyADT because it wont take my passwords, and it wont send me a password reset via email. I also can't remember my verbal password so it's impossible to access anything. I called and the guy walked me through everything as if I was extremely dumb which resulted in me staring at a login screen which I can't log into. They won't just reset my password, and they've increased the monthly payment twice now. I want to cancel, too but it's a whole ordeal and I'm stuck in this contract for two years now.

GBWorst 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.
