    @androidcentral It confirms one essential point. The included at purchase, 7 day cloud storage agreement, is being unilaterally reneged by Arlo. Poor show, dreadful customer approach @mbmcrae @ArloSmartHome

  • mbobelian
    Michael Bobelian (@mbobelian) reported

    In 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

  • sdottnicole
    Sharee Nicole (@sdottnicole) reported

    @ArloSmartHome is there an issue with Trusting new devices for 2FA? My new iPhone and iPad both get error messages when I try to add as trusted devices. My old phone and iPad have been deleted.

    @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!

    If you want the absolute worst security camera buy an Arlo @ArloSmartHome

  • Zephyrmiller
    Zephyr Linda Miller (@Zephyrmiller) reported

    @ArloSmartHome Why can't I get my new phone to be "trusted" by Arlo online. Now it won't trust any of my devices, computer or iPad, not new. I can't find a phone number anywhere and when I tried to chat, the response was "please put this in different terms. I'm new". Somebody please help me.

    @ArloSmartHome your customer service is absolutely the worse!! You have no phone number to contact for support, nothing but automotive questions. I wish I had never bought your cameras!! Can’t get any help from any. Straight trash!!

  • U_R_Not_A_Woman
    Pepe Reporting (@U_R_Not_A_Woman) reported

    @ArloSmartHome So you can EOL this product too and not support the hardware that I paid more for? No thanks no one wants your ****.

  • Gshigs
    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?

  • TungenGasche

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

  • George__Santos
    George Santos (@George__Santos) reported

    I just got notified that you are EOL'ing our cameras. Thanks a lot for causing working devices to be thrown in the trash heap. We bought these about 4 years ago. We would have bought Arlo again but if 4 years is all we can expect, forget it. @ArloSmartHome

  • 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???

  • skeldor
    Skeldor (@skeldor) reported

    @ArloSmartHome you guys are the Southwest Airlines of video doorbell companies. Got one for Christmas and have tried for hours to install just to be told you don’t have the bandwidth to handle all the new customers and my doorbell is now offline. Uninstalling and returning.

  • TheRealNWV
    Nickalas W. Venables (@TheRealNWV) reported

    In case you're wondering, yes @ArloSmartHome security cameras are currently down. The entire ******* network. So I'm not saying anyone *should* rob anyone, but it certainly would be a good time if you were the kind of person who'd do such a thing.

    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”

    @ArloSmartHome Unfortunately I couldn’t log into my account from my phone or from any other devices. I tried to do all the steps that mentioned in the website through the society experience please, I need help to login .

    @ArloSmartHome Absolute trash. Never ever buy Arlo.

  • taita1965
    Frank (@taita1965) reported

    Tried to swap my broken camera for new one in my Arlo Secure Single Camera subscription. This used to be flawless but @ArloSmartHome removed this from the functionality. Now I have to cancel my subscription with still 8 months to go, lose my money and start a new subscription.

  • gaaiz
    Gaaiz (@gaaiz) reported

    @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.

    Looking for a terrible example of an #aichatbot? Look no further than @ArloSmartHome! Truly an atrocious experience.

    Hi @ArloSmartHome - fix your network. Don't tell me to DM with my problem. All of us are having issues. A company with good customer service would update their customers on any issues.

    @ArloSmartHome End of life is bull **** they don't tell you that when you buy their cameras 4 years and they shut your cameras off I won't purchase arlo again

    @ArloSmartHome customer service is trash

  • calebjrobinson3
    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.

  • cook1122
    Evan Cook (@cook1122) reported

    I spent $100 on an @ArloSmartHome wired doorbell. I would have rather lit it on fire, cause it may have given me more joy than dealing with their terrible products, apps, and excuse of customer service. I would NEVER purchase from them again.

  • MerenessAlex
    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.

    @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.

    @ArloSmartHome On top of that my camera barely worked when it did and now it’s broken due to water damage that’s why I canceled it I have no use to subcribe and you guys still charge my card half a month after I cancel it wtf is that bullshit you guys just wanna finesse our hard earned money?!

    @ArloSmartHome I have called and used your community support. Your support folks said they've never heard another incident like mine but many people on your community forum have the same issue. Your product is low quality
