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.

GBThis company is absolutely horrible… This company is absolutely horrible never sign up with them. Their service is impossible to cancel. The phone agents openly lie about their ability to cancel things and claim they need to send you to another department. Then they basically hope you will give up after a couple hours on hold. Their price has increased steadily for the past several years and it is flat out not worth it anymore. When exploring security companies overlook this one and go another you will be doing yourself a bit favor.

GBWorst experience ever Worst experience ever! The sales man was excellent, then the technician came the following day and we had to literally throw him out of the house . Rudest person we've dealt with. He trashed the salesman, kept insisting he go upstairs to assess things. We told him we didn't need anyrhing done there,we only wanted what was agreed on. He wouldn't listen to us at all. How they can keep sending this guy out is beyond me. Two friends described him and said they both had the same experience. Wise up ADT

GBFaulty equipment Been having issues with faulty equipment since January. It's been issues with faulty window sensors and now a faulty ring door bell cam. Customer service just think you have all day when you secdule a appointment and they don't up hold there appointment time.

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.
