-
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”
-
NotBorg (@MagaDplorable) reported@ArloSmartHome bought a Pro 5S 2K to test to replace 9 camera system. I had issue but can't get an support because I don't have account ? this is trial version suppose to be good for 30 days. all I get is spinning when trying to view. your idea of "Trial" sucks no sale
-
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
-
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.
-
Steve Lunceford (@dslunceford) reported@ArloSmartHome Terrible new EOL policy. Will never buy another of your products again. I have 5 cameras myself and know of three other families who bought on my recommendation.
-
Dante Hinojosa (@dinferno21) reported@ArloSmartHome Worst product ever definitely get a @ring instead
-
LizRoddy222 (@Roddy222) reported@C__Start @ArloSmartHome @ArloEU Confirming that VMB4000 is down.
-
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!
-
🏎 (@wrinkled_lemon) reported@ArloSmartHome I will never trust your products again. If you can do this to earlier models, what's stopping you from EOL-ing current models a couple of years down the road? Why would I *upgrade* to new models when you can just pull the infrastructural support for it later?
-
Yotam Ben Ami (@ybenami) reportedJust how bad is @ArloSmartHome set-up experience? Bad enough to get you to return the entire system and purchase one from Google or China instead. And that's pretty bad...
-
Ed Moreau (@edmoreau) reportedI 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 **** ?
-
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.
-
John (@JohnBurke72) reported@ArloSmartHome officially done with arlo. Cameras constantly disconnect now base station no longer connects at all. Garbage, buy @ring
-
LakeShowFresh (@LakeSkol) reported@ArloSmartHome @C__Start It’s crazy. It works on iPad intermittently but on my iPhone completely offline. Simultaneously
-
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.
-
Connie Moulaison (@conniemoulaiso) reported@ArloSmartHome @Pocketlint I have over 9 cameras. When I purchased them I did not need a monthly subscription to view my recordings. Since the update 4/24/26 my features are gone. Arlo Tech help can not fix it. Why did Arlo remove my features I’ve had for years?
-
Spicy Bits 🤡 Show (@TheTruthSekr) reported@Arlo can go F off... Your EOL policy on 4-year old cameras is the last straw. Arlo has made many fumbles & poor service over the years, but I'm searching for new options, and when I find my replacement, I'm telling the whole world. @ArloSmartHome isn't a very smart company
-
Mike Woslager (@MikeWoslager) reported@ArloSmartHome returned my system 👍worst customer service ever. No manual no support. Look elsewhere for cameras Arlo SUCKS!
-
Wowzr (@Wowzzr) reported@ArloSmartHome EOL email glad I switched to reolink years ago! **** #reolink
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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 will tell them not to use Arlo products ever again after his little stunt.
-
Steven Loi (@StevenLoi) reported.@ArloSmartHome is the only way to unsubscribe from email alerts (but maintain push notification alerts) is to mark your emails as spam? There is no ability on the website nor mobile app to stop the email alerts (baby monitor) - I've looked everywhere. Help.
-
Joseph Gruber (@josephgruber@josephgruber.space) (@JosephGruber) reported@ArloSmartHome Also, a fun bug I found - if I add someone as a friend, it will log them out of _their_ account anytime I change the access settings. Let me help you with the test case: User A should not be able to force User B to log out of their account. #cybersecurity #vulnerability
-
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
-
Joey Bartz (@JoeyBartz) reported@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.
-
Butters Mom (@laurakwhiteside) reported@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.
-
Jacob Hernandez (@JJHulk85) reported@ArloSmartHome Why is it so hard to get assistance on my camera, when I do get someone they hang up on me and are talking to someone else while talking to me. Still haven't resolved my camera issue
-
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.
