    @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.

    @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!!

    If you want the absolute worst security camera buy an Arlo @ArloSmartHome

    @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?

  • amracinggreen
    Ian Ireland (@amracinggreen) reported

    @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

    @ArloSmartHome Hahaha! Your ****-*** company will soon be heading to court after you just screwed every last customer you ever had!!! You are finished 4eva. You bankrupted yourselves! 🖕💯🖕

    @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.

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

    @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.

    @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”

    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.

    @ArloSmartHome customer service is trash

    @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

  • Desaulnier27

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

    hi @ArloSmartHome Horrible App update... really bad design but we have to live with it. Can you help ua discover where Zones shortcut is hidden in the new UI? I have a subscription.

  • AmericanMadeCPM
    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.

  • JohnBurke72
    John (@JohnBurke72) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I have called and used your community support. Your support folks said they've never heard another incident like mine but many people on your community forum have the same issue. Your product is low quality

    @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.

    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.

  • dslunceford
    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.

    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???

    @ArloSmartHome Your cameras suck and so do you as a company. DO NOT BUY THIS GARBAGE!

  • calebjrobinson3
    Caleb J Robinson (@calebjrobinson3) reported

    @ArloSmartHome One of the links that was sent to help me was about how to manually record videos. It’s like you didn’t even read what I originally said.

  • mariocirignani
    Mario (@mariocirignani) reported

    @ArloSmartHome I am in the middle of choosing a security camera system for my home and daughters home and I read about ARLO’s deceitful behavior. I don’t care that they changed their minds when confronted by bad press. Not buying ARLO. Can’t be trusted. Shameful. Somebody should be fired.

  • MWillner2
    Matt (@MWillner2) reported

    Rug-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!

  • JasonBrobbate
    Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported

    @ArloSmartHome would be cool if you fixed your geofencing. When the program says ‘all devices’ but activates when anyone leaves or comes. **** you. I hope you go bankrupt

  • rodneyg0
    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.
