-
Joey Bartz (@JoeyBartz) reported@koyote19 @ArloSmartHome Have they updated you on this? I hate paying for a service that is not working. I called customer service and they said their software is cooked and the engineers are working on it.
-
Denise (@DeniseGratia) reported@ArloSmartHome I'm waiting for my turn in the chat room and I've been waiting for over an hour and 4 people have gone thru the queue. Your service is especially terrible. The only thing you're really good at is billing.
-
I am no one. (@mahasitavati) reported@ArloSmartHome @TechHive Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.
-
Ellen Foster (@ellennnfoster) reported@ArloSmartHome is there an outage on your doorbell server? I'm unable to access any smart features and am getting generic motion notifications, no previews, etc. (I have a subscription)
-
716 Fan From 908 (@716_Fan_Frm_908) reported@ArloSmartHome fix your servers. What good is a “security” system that is down for hours.
-
Dante Hinojosa (@dinferno21) reported@ArloSmartHome Worst product ever definitely get a @ring instead
-
Christopher (@Chris_Y3MX) reportedJust 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.
-
LOCK HIM UP 🇺🇸 🇺🇦 (@Gshigs) reported@CNETNews Arlo is a scam. Advertise cloud storage and camera notifications for years - the main reason for choosing them - and then just announce they’re EOLing and shutting it down. Why would anyone buy from @ArloSmartHome again?
-
Lucy ❤️🇺🇸🗽 (@MsLucyKim) reported@SAMA92458684 @ArloSmartHome We are having the same problem today. It’s not working.
-
Caleb J Robinson (@calebjrobinson3) reported@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.
-
🏎 (@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?
-
LizRoddy222 (@Roddy222) reported@C__Start @ArloSmartHome @ArloEU Confirming that VMB4000 is down.
-
Matt Barker (@htsmatt) reported@ArloSmartHome I need cables to connect my solar panels to my cameras. Help? Thx
-
Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported@ArloSmartHome I don’t need a link to help me. Your tech support couldn’t even add a device to my account. Your own team can’t even work your stupid interface. Go play in traffic
-
Donna Rosser (@barefootphoto) reported@ArloSmartHome your customer service and secure plan are a joke. No help.
-
Michael Bobelian (@mbobelian) reportedIn less than three years, my Arlo doorbell @ArloSmartHome broke. That's a short lifespan and I can't get anyone to help me with it on the phone or online. I'm disappointed that Arlo won't stand behind its product and the terrible #CustomerService
-
BeautifulOne (@Beautifulone119) reported@ArloSmartHome please help me I have your Arlo Pro 4 system and I've tried ar least 20 times between Saturday and today to set them up. I've followed instructions for how many Ghz AND made sure blue light is blinking AND scanned QR Code. I'm so FRUSTRATED. PLZ DM ME
-
Colin Wheeler (@colinpwheeler) reported@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.
-
justin (@BadRammaJamma) reported@ArloSmartHome @ArloSmartHome why am I not allowed to talk to a live agent even though I bought your equipment and it’s not working??? I have to pay you again for a subscription before someone will talk to me, if anybody is considering Arlo, don’t buy it!
-
Alex Mereness (@MerenessAlex) reported@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.
-
Butters Mom (@laurakwhiteside) reported@ArloSmartHome @Pocketlint Hey, arlo how can I get a hold of a life person... I have tried every route and cannot get anyone to help me on my arlo back online. And you offer a phone number, which just happens to be one number short of an actual phone number. Can you please give me a number ? I need help.
-
Chris Szmergiel (@SzmergielChris) reported@BeljicaPeak @ArloSmartHome Even better they still lie to their android users forcing them to turn on insecure permissions. I dropped Arlo completely after they doubled down on the permissions.
-
N (@nbbirch22) reported@ArloSmartHome why are your doorbell speakers so bad? I talk through it with the volume set at 100% and people barely hear me.
-
Brendan Gill (@scribeteach) reported@ArloSmartHome Is there some sort of system-wide firmware update issue?
-
mauriciobond (@mauriciobond23) reported@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”
-
dylan (@DylanStratton) reportedI’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???
-
Tim Kivi (@timkiviprime) reported@ArloSmartHome Do not under any circumstances by Arlo products. Their suport is terrible and the products do not connect to HomeKit
-
TCOLLEGECUSE (@TCOLLEGECUSE) reported@ArloSmartHome @mbmcrae My frustration with your company and its poor customer service has reached a tweetable moment unfortunately. It is fine for a company to discontinue products. That is common, but to not arm your customer success associates with the proper information and
-
Geo 🇺🇸 🏳️🌈 🇺🇦 🦋 (@InvizOne) reported@ArloSmartHome Thanks, but it doesn’t help. It appeared plans, including LTE, were provided by Arlo & outside LTE not recommended. Conflicting cellular info has halted a Go2 purch a live agent could easily clarify. Seems bad social media is only way to get attention/answers to product Q’s.
-
John (@JohnBurke72) reported@ArloSmartHome officially done with arlo. Cameras constantly disconnect now base station no longer connects at all. Garbage, buy @ring
