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

  @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?

  @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

  Tried to swap my broken camera for new one in my Arlo Secure Single Camera subscription. This used to be flawless but @ArloSmartHome removed this from the functionality. Now I have to cancel my subscription with still 8 months to go, lose my money and start a new subscription.

  @ArloSmartHome can someone please reach out to me. Your chat support is not resolving my issue

  @ArloSmartHome WTF Arlo. Will not sell me my upgrade cameras because I live in NC or is it because I'm not woke! I'm a huge @NETGEAR fan with a lot of their product. I'm about to throw everything out and go find the equipment else where! UNBELIEVABLE

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

  Ian Ireland (@amracinggreen) reported 13 minutes ago

  @ArloSmartHome Thinking of buying Arlo? I’d think twice. An 18-month-old camera fails, it’s just out of warranty, yet I’ve paid a monthly subscription throughout. This isn’t my first poor experience either 1/4

  @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

  @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.

  Curious why @ArloSmartHome ****** their user interface to tears? There was nothing wrong with it you **** heads

  @ArloSmartHome No, it doesn’t pair well at all. In fact, it is one of the worst cameras in existence. #pos

  @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.

  @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.

  @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..

  Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported 28 minutes ago

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

  @Its_Jamin @ArloSmartHome I’m trying to but it gives me a warning that I’ll lose that feature. I shouldn’t lose it. They’re aware of the conflict and are working on a fix.

  @ArloSmartHome I can't find a way to switch my subscription to yearly -- like the price increase email said to do....HELP!

  chuck gasaway (@ChuckGasaway) reported 30 minutes ago

  @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.

  Citizen Mane (@HoosierFordMan) reported 33 minutes ago

  @ArloSmartHome hey Arlo! Maybe you should stop telling people that it’s their internet that causes every single issue that arises with your cameras! I spent two hours chatting with your worthless support team on the app and that’s all they can offer when it’s so clearly hardware

  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.

  Hot Dice (@WisconsinSport6) reported 41 minutes ago

  @ArloSmartHome Former customer here. Don't buy Arlo. Whatever they promise now they'll change after you buy it. This company is in bad financial shape and will take your money and run. Beware.

  BeljicaPeak (@BeljicaPeak) reported 48 minutes ago

  @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 @mbmcrae My frustration with your company and its poor customer service has reached a tweetable moment unfortunately. It is fine for a company to discontinue products. That is common, but to not arm your customer success associates with the proper information and

  @ArloSmartHome Absolute trash. Never ever buy Arlo.

  Steven Barczyk (@barczyksm) reported 54 minutes ago

  @ArloSmartHome Based on the bait-and-switch tactics @ArloSmartHome has employed, I can no longer recommend their products. I look forward to joining the class action lawsuit for my 5 cameras if they go through with their plan. $ARLO down almost 64% over the last year.

  @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.

  @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.
