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

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

    @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.

    Dude 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

  • 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 **** ?

    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.

    @ArloSmartHome your animated notifications stopped working yesterday for multiple users as per your forum..please fix it

  • JasonBrobbate
    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

  • 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 ****.

    @ArloSmartHome why are your doorbell speakers so bad? I talk through it with the volume set at 100% and people barely hear me.

  • ColinBaileyUK
    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

  • htsmatt
    Matt Barker (@htsmatt) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I need cables to connect my solar panels to my cameras. Help? Thx

  • ChuckGasaway
    chuck gasaway (@ChuckGasaway) reported

    @OffBalanze @ArloSmartHome Agreed. With essential functions shutting down, our VMC4030 cameras will be basically useless. I can live without firmware updates for awhile... but... Arlo won't be a part of any decision matrix when looking for replacements.

  • TungenGasche

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

  • 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.

  • YoungloveJulie
    Julie Younglove (@YoungloveJulie) reported

    @ArloSmartHome has the worst customer service in the world. no phone number, and no live agent in chat. a bot that circles you into nowhere. and all i want is to cancel my account so i stop getting "important updates" for products i no longer own. frustrated af.

  • CGurciullo
    C (@CGurciullo) reported

    @ArloSmartHome @Arlo - stop advertising new products while you are scamming your existing customer base. Your "end of life" scam is nothing but a money grab. We paid good money for a product that you are artificially shutting down (unless we pay you more money).

  • mahasitavati
    I am no one. (@mahasitavati) reported

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

  • JustinEdmead
    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

  • mahasitavati

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

    @ArloSmartHome @RyanAma9 The problem persists

  • 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.

  • daniellemrubio
    d@nielle (@daniellemrubio) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I cannot log in on app or browser or reset my password. I get an error each time and it tells me to contact support but then says I don’t have access to support. Can you help me so I can use the system I paid hundreds of dollars to install? This is insane.

  • 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???

  • BadRammaJamma
    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!

  • 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.

  • BrotherBourbon
    Save Lives! (@BrotherBourbon) reported

    Hey @ArloSmartHome I just bought a whole system on Ring because your chat is terrible and you can’t get anyone on a call. Worst customer support I’ve ever seen.

    @SAMA92458684 @ArloSmartHome We are having the same problem today. It’s not working.

    I should have listened to the reviews @ArloSmartHome had terrible customer service reviews for a reason. Buy something else. Not this.

  • mirceadesign

    @ArloSmartHome has probably the worst customer support ever. I have contacted them several weeks ago and I still did not received any response. Amazing how these companies treat customers nowadays
