    @ArloSmartHome Worst product ever definitely get a @ring instead

    @CeriCerilou @shumirunnessa Beware that they may hack your cameras. My cameras were hacked and I was unable to access them. One, they set the image upside down and denied me access to change it. Another, suddenly, the company decided to discontinue service @ArloSmartHome I know 👇🏾 #JustAnotherCoincidence

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

    @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 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!

    @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.

    @ArloSmartHome terrible customer service experience. Calls dropped. No call backs for open service requests despite assurances that calls were scheduled.

    @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”

  • ScottyWitte
    Scott 🌻 (@ScottyWitte) reported

    @ArloSmartHome It’s normal to be frequently, randomly logged out of the Arlo app. But now, this time, I’m unable to log back in. No reason or error given. I’m assuming the people that run this company don’t use their own products.

  • DDGvision

    @ArloSmartHome are you guys having an issue again? My doorbell camera and inside camera is no longer recording

  • JasonBrobbate

    @ArloSmartHome please fire whoever designed this interface. This is the worst thing I have ever seen in my life.

    @ArloSmartHome Betcha the arbitrary EOL feature removal = class action. No plans to ever spend time and money on Arlo in the future. Arlo couldn’t even make its touted geofencing function reliably and regularly service was down. Now we are rewarded with EOL. Not 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!!

  • colinpwheeler
    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.

  • JasonBrobbate
    Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported

    @ArloSmartHome Thank you AI slop but it all worked fine. Then you changed UI. Now it’s broke. I’m still waiting for my call back from your awful Pakistan based support team about this issue from 4 weeks ago. I don’t need an article to tell me how to work location services

  • AmericanMadeCPM
    AmericanMade (@AmericanMadeCPM) reported

    @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.

  • Desaulnier27
    Jason Desaulnier (@Desaulnier27) reported

    @ArloSmartHome why does the geofencing option for my cameras not work? Please help

    @ArloSmartHome System appears to be down. numerous reports on downdetector

  • 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

    mamamae (@maegansmiles04) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I got a new phone and now my system won’t let me log in even with verification and doesn’t “trust” device even after I select trust. No one is answering phone calls and your online chat doesn’t help

  • cdcrooks

    @ArloSmartHome recently purchased Pro4 Spotlight with Hub. Cameras keep randomly dropping while others on the same hub stay connected. Sometimes they reconnect. What is the fix?

  • nchara1
    Noel Charath (@nchara1) reported

    @ArloSmartHome what is going on with your all devices. They are going offline today for many users

  • ellennnfoster
    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)

  • arunt2016

    @ArloSmartHome #arlo is not compatible with iPhone 14. No way to get help from support.

  • JackJoh58480894
    Jack Johnson (@JackJoh58480894) reported

    @ArloSmartHome Your system is terrible. Your cameras will not stay connected. When you try to reconnect it takes multiple, multiple attempts, if they even ever do connect. Can’t get help from a live person. Customer service is almost non existent.

  • mariocirignani
    Mario (@mariocirignani) reported

    @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.

  • ChrisHahn14
    Christopher Hahn (@ChrisHahn14) reported

    @ArloSmartHome please have my case #43366554 addressed and handled immediately. 26 cameras, 3 base stations are now useless paperweights costing me thousands of $ because my subscription is not working any longer.

  • edmoreau
    Ed Moreau (@edmoreau) reported

    I have been spammed by @ArloSmartHome for a few weeks about a sale. I own several Pro 4 cameras and have questions about a newer model. But the AI chat (which IS NOT very intelligent at all) refuses to connect to a human because my cameras are too old. WHAT THE ACTUAL **** ?
