Melissa (@llprncs) reported@ArloSmartHome super disappointed got doorbell in December. Been looking for help back-and-forth. No one will call me.Still not hooked up 30th message back-and-forth. You gonna make me pay for your defective device to send it back. Why can no one help me this is a joke.
-
kyle (@kodeineking13) reported@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?!
-
LXP (https://spacekaren.sucks/learningxp) (@learningxp) reported@ArloSmartHome Trying to upgrade my EOL cameras. Credit card got charged the full amount twice. The CS chats were filled with canned answers and completely unhelpful. No idea if my order is good or not. It's been a while since I've had customer service this bad.
-
Kristina (@KNanaG1) reported@ArloSmartHome Arlo we have a problem, I can no longer connect to a 2.4 ghz and now my floodlight camera is useless. Can you help?
-
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!
-
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
-
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.
-
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”
-
Luis Ortiz (@luisaggie) reported@ArloSmartHome hi any support on trying to get the redeemable code to work? Currently have an EOL camera system, and we wanted to get our annual subscription, but keep getting error message when trying to suscribe to the annual multi camera plan.
-
RossCreations (@CreationsRoss) reportedDude this video surveillance company really doesn’t have a way to download 24/7 video snippets. That’s like a plumber not working on toilets @ArloSmartHome figure this out or I gotta find another company. Sucks cause I’ve really liked u so far
-
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!
-
Ian Ireland (@amracinggreen) reported@ArloSmartHome Customer support? Endless scripted troubleshooting I’ve already done, no evidence they’ve read previous case notes, no continuity, no ownership, and no attempt to actually solve the problem. 2/4
-
AJG (@AntJGumm) reported@ArloSmartHome Guys your support is unbelievably BAD .... first time I've had to use it and it's absolutely archaic in the way it operates. No access to your support cases and the WORST chatbot assistant I've come across in a very long time. Honestly will have a direct influence on any future purchase or comment from me.
-
I am no one. (@mahasitavati) reported@ArloSmartHome @AndroidAuth Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.
-
Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported@ArloSmartHome technical support is trying to give me support based off the old Interface choices. Your own tech support line can’t even help me navigate this UI overhaul. What a failure
-
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
-
kEVin in Dallas (@Kev_Bik) reported@WSJ @nicnguyen Stupid decisions=bad business. And hello, you expected to get away with this with social media!? Not. Glad I don’t own them. Never will now. @ArloSmartHome
-
TeeVeeTee (@TeeVeeTee1776) reported@ArloSmartHome Any idea of a time fix? We’ve had bears come by when I’m out. Not cool. I bought cameras for a reason.😬 If not fixed , we’re going to have to move to a different service/camera. It’s been WAY too long safety wise. How about you go back to a prior release for us?
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Rodney G. Grover (@rodneyg0) reported@ArloSmartHome I spent an hour and half yesterday with your team explaining the situation 3 times to 3 different agents. If you don’t have records of those conversations then you can’t help.
-
Eddie Omar Garcia (@Eddiiee_G10) reported@RyanAma9 @ArloSmartHome I dont think my arlos are that old, but mine are definitely not working.. Maybe its just a bug right now? Mine were working fine earlier.. still even get notifications.
-
Jason Desaulnier (@Desaulnier27) reported@ArloSmartHome why does the geofencing option for my cameras not work? Please help
-
Bill Kampouris (@BillKampouris) reported@ArloSmartHome Your cameras suck and so do you as a company. DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE!
-
Arun 🇮🇳🇺🇸 (@arunt2016) reported@ArloSmartHome #arlo is not compatible with iPhone 14. No way to get help from support.
-
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.
-
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 ****.
-
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
-
Mobinaut (@mobinaut) reported@ArloSmartHome One more question please because the new app design is so PAINFULLY bad....Which "settings" menus do you mean! there are a ton of settings and we cannot easily identify the one you mean!
