Josh (@jblanier) reported@ArloSmartHome finally pushed me over the edge… after debating on replacing the battery powered cameras and looking at @Ubiquiti equipment I’ll be replacing all Arlo smart home devices with unifi, however the issue is where I don’t have PoE.
-
FjR (@fjr2320gmailco1) reported@ArloSmartHome I used to like Arlo, I've spent a considerable amount on their products. NOW they refuse to answer my emails regarding a fault in my £179. Door Bell. It mysteriously stopped working, they gave me a few things to try and resolve this issue, none of them worked.
-
Bailey (@ColinBaileyUK) reported@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
-
Arun 🇮🇳🇺🇸 (@arunt2016) reported@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.
-
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?
-
Tungen Gasche (@TungenGasche) reported@ArloSmartHome How many times an hour does an "unexpected error" have to occur before it's not "unexpected" any more?
-
DDGvision (@DDGvision) reported@ArloSmartHome are you guys having an issue again? My doorbell camera and inside camera is no longer recording
-
Dante Hinojosa (@dinferno21) reported@ArloSmartHome Worst product ever definitely get a @ring instead
-
Brian (@safcbee) reported@ArloSmartHome Hey! Can anyone reach out and help determine why the batteries in my Arlo Ultra 2 cameras are shockingly bad? The last a matter of days rather than months as advertised..
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
I am no one. (@mahasitavati) reported@ArloSmartHome @AndroidAuth Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.
-
Wowzr (@Wowzzr) reported@ArloSmartHome EOL email glad I switched to reolink years ago! **** #reolink
-
Yossarian is PRO-CHOICE and ANTI-FA (@YossarianV5) reported@ArloSmartHome your "customer service" is non-existent. Three cameras functionally inoperable and I can't get any responses worth a **** within a reasonable (it's been a week) amount of time. Really disappointing.
-
ΔLEYΔ N00R (@uhleyuhdoe) reported@ArloSmartHome This is not the issue, unfortunately. The issue is that the system is interfering with our internet speed
-
Bat Attitude (@AttitudeBat) reported@ArloSmartHome ARLO…. This is Your ELO! Bad, business decision. No one forced to upgrade will stay with your system. Shame on you… wouldn’t stay if it was free now. Snakes!
-
I am no one. (@mahasitavati) reported@ArloSmartHome @verge Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.
-
Cyndi (@theredwings26jk) reported@ArloSmartHome Resolved the problem everything is back on and working.
-
Doug (@BULLYDOG77) reported@ArloSmartHome Is arlo down today ?
-
Hurleys (@Hurleys96) reported@CreationsRoss @ArloSmartHome Stop at a red light but be 10 cars back. Be the passenger to get out walk down to the red because it’s faster than waiting
-
Justin Edmead (@JustinEdmead) reported@0zFoggy @ArloSmartHome I completely agree. I am fed up with @ArloSmartHome and seriously considering alternatives. The support has been poor for a long time and is not of the quality you'd expect for the price they charge. Not much tangible problem solving from tier 1 support
-
Steve Musselman (@SteveJMusselman) reported@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!!
-
ARLO THE NIGHTMARE (@ArloSmartHomes) reported@ArloSmartHome No, it doesn’t pair well at all. In fact, it is one of the worst cameras in existence. #pos
-
Connie Moulaison (@conniemoulaiso) reported@ArloSmartHome @SusannWalters @Pocketlint I have 9 camera I purchased them when Arlo advertised that I would not need a monthly subscription. On April 24th 2026 I lost the features when they did an update. I’m on a fixed income & this was an investment in my home security. Arlo’s technical advisors are no help!
-
Matt (@MWillner2) reportedRug-pull by @ArloSmartHome. Purchased two Arlo Baby’s when they were advertising free cloud storage and now they took it away. This is poor business practice. Also there’s no way to get any service support online unless you pay money for a plan. Do better!
-
Victorious HazaEL (@Praise2ADONAI) reported@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
-
Gerard Krupa (@uxian) reportedApparently @ArloSmartHome are raising their prices so they can replace their buggy app with a new shiny buggy app instead of fixing the bugs.
