    @ArloSmartHome @ArloSmartHome system gone bye bye now--in the trash. Here's to hoping losing a customer hurts 🥂Been replaced with @blinkforhome ; hopefully they will continue to support their products 7 years down the road.

    @ArloSmartHome hey Arlo! Maybe you should stop telling people that it’s their internet that causes every single issue that arises with your cameras! I spent two hours chatting with your worthless support team on the app and that’s all they can offer when it’s so clearly hardware

    @ArloSmartHome @verge Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.

    @ArloSmartHome WTF Arlo. Will not sell me my upgrade cameras because I live in NC or is it because I'm not woke! I'm a huge @NETGEAR fan with a lot of their product. I'm about to throw everything out and go find the equipment else where! UNBELIEVABLE

  • MerenessAlex

    @ArloSmartHome I’ve spent well over $700 into this system, based on promises and claims made by you. It’s disappointing that you now choose to go back on said promises, I understand not supporting old hardware, but effectively bricking/paywalling the system unless more money is spent is trash.

    @ArloSmartHome @Arlo - stop advertising new products while you are scamming your existing customer base. Your "end of life" scam is nothing but a money grab. We paid good money for a product that you are artificially shutting down (unless we pay you more money).

    .@ArloSmartHome is the only way to unsubscribe from email alerts (but maintain push notification alerts) is to mark your emails as spam? There is no ability on the website nor mobile app to stop the email alerts (baby monitor) - I've looked everywhere. Help.

    @ArloSmartHome Worst quality control and customer service I’ve seen in a while. I have 6 cameras and 2 of them died misteriously 2 months after the warranty had expired. Their response after hours of “troubleshooting” with them (making me waste hours on stuff that’s on the manua): “Tough luck”

    @ArloSmartHome @ring I bet ring doorbell would help me set up my doorbell if I got one from them how is Arlo such a piece of junk the entire company no one can help four months later still no doorbell set up

    @ArloSmartHome Your service is terrible. Cannot send a request without a serial number when the request has to do with your security policy. Your company can't get basic languages right. Sigh, amateur hour at the zoo. Not even counting how unstable your entire platform is.

    @ArloSmartHome What a difficult time I have had with any customer support from Arlo. It’s been terrible. 17x trying to update a firmware update with an existing camera. On the phone an hour. Had to buy a new camera. Absolutely terrible experience.

  • conniemoulaiso
    Connie Moulaison (@conniemoulaiso) reported

    @ArloSmartHome @Pocketlint I have over 9 cameras. When I purchased them I did not need a monthly subscription to view my recordings. Since the update 4/24/26 my features are gone. Arlo Tech help can not fix it. Why did Arlo remove my features I’ve had for years?

    @ArloSmartHome I changed my iPhone device after that I am not able to login back. It's sending the verification code to my email and that's not working. Unfortunately there is no support number.

    @ArloSmartHome It was clearly a big mistake advising your products to my friends and family, which I now have to explain this terrible EOL decision. Off course I will tell them not to use Arlo products ever again after this little stunt.

    Just learned that as of Jan 1, 2023 @ArloSmartHome is ******* all their customers and the equipment we have installed in going to end up in the trash.

    @ArloSmartHome @AndroidAuth Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.

    @ArloSmartHome I love how “out of nowhere” the cameras always disconnect from wifi. It’s great when you’re about to go to sleep and have to instead go outside, take the camera down, and manually reset the battery so it reconnects to wifi. Straight garbage.

    @ArloSmartHome The absolute worst doorbell ever made! No support help, can even speak to a live person. Don’t wast your money!

  • mariocirignani

    @ArloSmartHome I am in the middle of choosing a security camera system for my home and daughters home and I read about ARLO’s deceitful behavior. I don’t care that they changed their minds when confronted by bad press. Not buying ARLO. Can’t be trusted. Shameful. Somebody should be fired.

  • wrinkled_lemon
    🏎 (@wrinkled_lemon) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I will never trust your products again. If you can do this to earlier models, what's stopping you from EOL-ing current models a couple of years down the road? Why would I *upgrade* to new models when you can just pull the infrastructural support for it later?

  • BrotherBourbon
    Save Lives! (@BrotherBourbon) reported

    Hey @ArloSmartHome I just bought a whole system on Ring because your chat is terrible and you can’t get anyone on a call. Worst customer support I’ve ever seen.

    @ArloSmartHome How many times an hour does an "unexpected error" have to occur before it's not "unexpected" any more?

    @mbmcrae Fix your current problems! Where is the complete user manual for the Arlo Ultra 2 XL? Is this customer service? I think I bought an @ArloSmartHome boat anchor!

  • calebjrobinson3

    @ArloSmartHome Yeah, your DMs are sending me generic links for tech support and subscription services. There was nothing addressing the issue of 7 day cloud storage being deactivated on my account.

  • DylanStratton
    dylan (@DylanStratton) reported

    I’m ready to switch to a new camera system and get away from @ArloSmartHome. They’re killing old cameras and customer service is the worst. They only let me talk to robots. Any security camera suggestions???
