VIVINT home security. The nightmare is over.

[@smarthome2660]

Sorry you had a nightmare. I have had Vivint for 10 years. I had them when it was called APX. Each time I have had a problem through the years, Vivint replaced equipment at no charge.

[@shawnwilliams4177]

The cameras was the problem. Each camera should be plugged into its own power supply. I had nightmares too. Try not to use pre installed alarm stuff previously installed, go 100 percent Vivint products. and Don't let them install an older panel, get the latest installed, lastly, make sure the wires to your panel are sending proper voltage, a previosly installed wires from battery backup might not power properly thus causing panel issues and delays.

[@benyoucefdjermoune9528]

I agree with this video 100%... although i had a different issue with Vivint.. but they are the worst.. i bought a package that cost about $1500 that included thermostat, alarm system, door opener, garage opener, etc.. as soon as i canceled my alarm system they revoked my access to the app so i have zero.. zero access throught he app because it’s supposedly part of the alarm package... one more thing .. their hubs the new one cannot work with other systems only vivint toys...be careful.

[@ttexas4491]

The same happened to me. Total paid 5200 on equipment and cancellation. It was a nightmare for 2 years so I preferred to paid and get out from them.

[@gybx4094]

I have Vivint, but in a very simple implementation with no smartphone interface and month-to-month monitoring contract all costs paid upfront. It's only 3 door sensors, 2 motion detectors and 2 fire alarms. I can tell you that ADT has become much worse. I had ADT for 21 years and I could no longer even contact them without waiting at least 20 minutes. ADT continuously raises monitoring costs every year. So, I wouldn't recommend ADT.

[@bthemedia]

Thank you for sharing this insightful experience, all issues I would have expected! Glad they got resolved!

I cancelled my scheduled installation, & ordered blink 5 camera kit.

That’s what I’m about to do. Did you end up getting charged anything at all? (Since you cancelled even before getting the equipment)

[@BoostedMK6]

Just had my stuff installed and the tech was very helpful and knew his shit. Captured someone that next morning lurking at my door and it alerted him. I get notifications and have my system setup so it’s not making a whistle noise every time someone walks by. It sucks so many people here have issues but I’ve so far had zero problems. The tech did tell me to never have any of my friends call Vivint and to call him instead as Vivint didn’t cut me any deals or discounts. My tech had to call and get me discounts.

My expensive camera's from VIVINT didn't pick up someone vandalizing my Mercedes Benz several times but my neighbors across the street capture it showing the person was less than 10 feet away shooting out my windows right in front of my VIVINT camera. I showed this t Vivint and the police but they refuse to give me credit for a system that I thought was protecting me and my family for last two years. They refuse to come and pickup their system which don't work and they demanded that we cancel. I repeatedly asked them would you pay for something that don't work or continually don't work? To make this right pay for the damages done to my Mercedes Benz or give me all the money I've paid into this system thus far. They refused, and stated we can install new updated equipment free of charge, but they should be offering this to everyone right now to save face cause this will happen to everyone who has this system. So i save them a possible lawsuits in the future only to be punished with upgrading a system I can't trust anymore and they will not backup there equipment or stand behind there expensive system.

Thank you for this video. I am also having issues with this company I am so tired of climbing up and down the stairs rebooting resetting just today they had me go outside get up on a ladder and reset one of my cameras ( I am not paying $50 to have a tech come out ) it would have cost me at least $1000 to have a tech come out every time this system went offline. I have a camera off line right now. and my doorbell camera goes offline twice a month. I am going to call them back right now and demand the new panel and have it hard wired. I am so pissed at this company I am ready to tear it all out and send it back and cancel the credit card.

[@MM-gm2yk]

All good no problems

[@willmajor4559]

I only want people who are fed up with VIVINT who wish to file a lawsuit against them for not taking responsibility for faulty equipment at no fault of your own and you can't use this equipment on any other security system therefore they are 100% liable for any and all malfunctions during the contract by law. Therefore I'm asking anyone who knows that this equipment is malfunctioning and has the same problems I have had with VIVINT and provided undeniable proof there system is in fact is very unreliable? I know there is others out there who feel the same way, small claims court is an option but will fade in the background unless we get a class action lawsuit going and put a stop to over charging, over stating corporate demands by instituting no fault clause on all services provided by this manufacture which is against the law. The customer is always right policy is needed to stand up to those who bully everyone in believing that they did something wrong here, when it's their equipment that failed in the first place.

Seems like it could be a good system.. but the offline problem and it won't reboot. Cameras sound off every time i pass them of course all the neighbors are annoyed. . I'm Very annoyed.. We've had rolling black out's and guess what things have to rebooted each time. I'm in the 30 day period... Ugh...

Thanks for sharing, I canceled my appointment I had for this morning to get the cameras installed, I’m seeing to many videos that Vivint is not good for many reason, one video shewed how Vivint tech who install cameras at this person house came back around 2:00am in the morning and broke into his car and the alarm never went off and valuables was stolen and the man when he looked on his panel remember that’s the same Vivint tech who installed his cameras and Vivint said nothing they can do

I am a manager with Vivint and run everything in Kansas other than KC. Almost everything in this video doesn't add up to anything my techs have seen. Some of it is correct. But sounds mostly like he is exaggerating or not listening to techs. Every tech would know that over 2 cameras its suggested to put a hard drive and relays for the cameras and put a 5ghz chip or panel in... I personally do a walk-through check on every install after they are complete and follow a check list after the tech to make sure no corners are cut. And final note if this guy had that many cameras he would have been told at the start he needs to have 5g wifi and nice router to run more than 2 cameras.

[@MorbidGod391]

So I’m at 6:50 mark on your video. But in my experience when cameras start to randomly drop off it’s a bandwidth/internet issue. How fast is (was) your upload speed? And are the cameras 720p or 1080p at the highest settings? (Obviously you probably can’t answe the settings question). But for four cameras you probably want an upload speed of about 10-20Mbps to high quality and no issues. Again. I don’t know the rest of the story so in your situation it may be the panel or if the WiFi is coming from the panel it might also be a signal strength issue. But that usually wouldn’t be random drop offs it would be the farthest camera’s loosing connection. (Also - another possibility - if the Sky Panel does control the WiFi and it’s WiFi upload was slower then your internet then that could also be a limiting factor)

[@MorbidGod391]

So yeah at the 10:02 mark kind of proves my last point there. I bet the Sky panel WiFi is slow.

[@No.Yes_Music]

The devices that were used are called PLC or PLS. They are used when the signal is below -65, which is too far away from the panel. A WiFi analyzer should be used prior to installation to figure out which devices should be used. With the proper installation technique, customers won’t have these types of issues.

[@zahidfaher7972]

I think techs don't use that device, cos even having wifi bridge many times cameras go offline , and also these devices somehow go offline, I wonder how the communication with the router stops for these wifi bridges

Security experts always say whoever comes into your house for deliveries, estimates, contractors as well as family, friends and neighbors, has the ability to case parts of the house.

It was probably your internet not your system. I had the same thing happen to cameras that I purchased a while ago. Security systems do not use wifi normally, only your cameras. What a mess though!

[@jpengos26]

You are correct. The cameras were using the existing standard WiFi router to manage high definition cameras over the WiFi. This is my analogy for your WiFi router, you were pulling a loaded trailer with a Mini Cooper, it works for a bit but once it overheats it doesn’t run anymore. Bob took the load of the WiFi when he installed those adapters and also gave you a free panel. I’ll be honest, someone paid for that panel, it was either Bob himself or his warehouse manager when they conducted their inventory count, I can assure you it wasn’t Vivint who paid for it. I work for an alarm company and if the customer doesn’t have the correct WiFi system to run the cameras and they are not willing to pay to upgrade their WiFi system, we don’t Instal cameras, some cancel all together, but in the long run it’s better that way for everyone.

Vivint covers all equipment. No other company will do this, no other company has their tech either. You seem to have an older system. The smart hub, the new panel can support over 7 cameras with no issue. Sorry you had those issues. If anyone wants a high quality Vivint system let me know. Always if possible PLC the panel and cameras. You won't have any of these issues.

Took me 5 days to finally cancelled this garbage of a system

[@willmajor4559]

My expensive camera's from VIVINT didn't pick up someone vandalizing my Mercedes Benz several times but my neighbors across the street capture it showing the person was less than 10 feet away shooting out my windows right in front of my VIVINT camera. I showed this t Vivint and the police but they refuse to give me credit for a system that I thought was protecting me and my family for last two years. They refuse to come and pickup their system which don't work and they demanded that we cancel. I repeatedly asked them would you pay for something that don't work or continually don't work? To make this right pay for the damages done to my Mercedes Benz or give me all the money I've paid into this system thus far. They refused, and stated we can install new updated equipment free of charge, but they should be offering this to everyone right now to save face cause this will happen to everyone who has this system. So i save them a possible lawsuits in the future only to be punished with upgrading a system I can't trust anymore and they will not backup there equipment or stand behind there expensive system.

@@jessieh.8443 Are you in a contract with them? I'm asking them for a full refund under Warranty and exclusive rights within Canada.

@@jessieh.8443 Also asking that people should not be taken this lightly. Com[anies would rather pay lawyers to fight for them then pay you. That's why I'm asking that we get a class-action lawsuit against VIVINT going for not standing behind there products.

[@willmajor4559]

Do we have rights? Is the customer right? Product don't work and you can't use their product with any other product means they are always on the hook to fix it!

[@willmajor4559]

@@jessieh.8443 I don't want to cancel, canceling means its my fault and I have to pay for the equipment in installments or all at once. Why pay for equipment that don't work? Would you? On top of this I would need to pay a cancellation fee of $250.00 that's BS. I Want a full refund!! I've sent in three letters by email no response and do you know why, emails are legally binding. If your happy with there system then congratulations but since knowing about them and how many people are dissatisfied. I would think before stepping into another contract with any of them.

Thank you for your experience

[@economyheating]

I had similar problem with my furthest away camera from my smart Hub and after several techs coming over and unable to fix it, then finally one smart tech hardwired my smart cameras and fixed the problem once and for all and now all is well and happy

[@bigbluerios]

So I have a question when I renew my contact and get the new panel n cams. Do I tell the tech to hardwire my cameras?

[@economyheating]

@@bigbluerios Yes ..I would ask to hardwire them

[@johnzapata8954]

flitedeck Their techs hardwire cams? I was told over the phone that they don’t hardwire. Connectivity has to be through wifi

[@economyheating]

@@johnzapata8954 What Vivint calls Hardwire is using a special PoE (not the regular PoE) that utilizes your home electrical wires as a source to transmit signals to and from the cameras and the smart/sky HUB via home electrical system Vs using airwaves signals. This new connection instantly made my 2 cameras work as it should.. Fyi It is my understanding that Vivint does not hardwire cameras in the traditional sense, But using home wire works great

Sounds like a car salesman

Vivint is one of the worst security companies out there. They are always trying to rip off their customers. They have the worst customer service ever. DO NOT GET VIVINT.

[@phyllisl.hallman3319]

We had cars hit 3x and the camera NEVER PICKED ANYTHING UP - the camera stopped recording at 11pm the night before and restated recording 7am the next day ( this was a constant problem - very FRUSTRATING) Vivint’s reply was I need a better camera for night vision they upgraded the camera for free but that night camera had similar problems--their customer care department was the worse everyone telling you something different all the time ( very FRUSTRATING) -- Vivint has been the worse company that I ever had to deal with -- I stopped the monitor with their company but was told that my cameras would still operate I w just wouldn’t have the monitoring however 5 months later all cameras went offline and haven’t worked since BUT I PAID OVER $3,000 for the cameras-was told that cameras were mine and would continue to operate / work with my Wi-Fi -- they DO NOT and when I called Vivint was told I need to sign back up with them-- there should be a class action brought against Vivint!!!!! 😢😢😢

Vivint is total garbage all the employees should be jailed. Two missed break ins and they offer a $15 credit.

Yes a man that has a weapon I thought you were going to go out there like most of them do without anything in their hands and yes that company is a nightmare I'm curious to know who you went with because ring simply said your Wi-Fi goes out there modem goes out ring goes out completely saves the modems goes out but they say that they can be monitor they have Wi-Fi splitters now if they put that thing up to your sensor to your door as long as they don't close the door it's not going to elect an alarm sorry

Class action lawsuit.

[@troybryantIII]

Thanks having vivint installed tomorrow.

[@eugenesmith5058]

Look on page 2 paragraph 19 of your agreement - send them a letter letting them know you opt out of the arbitration agreement. Then you can take them to court when their system fails - because it is going to fail often and for long periods of time.
