@ArloSmartHome - same contact issues as other tweeters. Trying to subscribe but web, chat, and phone have not worked for days. Please help me give you money & save more nighttime wildlife recordings! (Related: no more subscription reminder emails needed.)

The only thing reliable about our Arlo is knowing that whenever we want to use it, it will tell us that the devices "appear to be offline". @ArloSmartHome

@ArloSmartHome any chance we might get a firmware update soon? Constant false “vehicle alerts” are making me cranky. Camera records for 4-5 minutes and there’s literally nothing there. I’ve set the position well below the shaded area and turned sensitivity way down. Not helping

@ArloSmartHome @mbmcrae @reviewed You should tell your customers to look at your "Ask the Arlo Community" section prior to purchasing any Arlo products. It's full of complaints, issues, broken features, and no support. Even if you submit a ticket, it goes nowhere. #WorstCustomerServiceAwards

@ArloSmartHome It is the same issue on your forums since 2018. Cannot drag cam from inactive to active. Now my smart notifications are off, and I get 100 notifications a day, and my battery dies in 2 weeks. Cannot ignore cars or animals.

@ArloSmartHome seriously I'm getting fed up coming home to find my cameras are offline, I have no confidence in your system and I'm on a subscription with yourselves. Really poor. Why not let the customer choose if they want an update and more importantly be there when it updates

@BrianfromSTL @googlenest Agreed. I LOVE my @ArloSmartHome setup. Have multiple wifi w 2way audio cams outside. Solar panel powered. Even have a very ancient gen1 of theirs STILL going like a champ. Was wooed by Google in the worst way to buy a Nest doorbell. Please don’t be a fool like me.

@ArloSmartHome Worst customer service ever! Couldn’t understand the rep. All he did was read from a script. You need a number for billing questions

The alert video is not saved, my country was not added to the system, I bought the camera in December 2020 and so far my country has not activated, why was I not informed of this big problem before buying @ArloSmartHome #Arlo

@ArloSmartHome Suddenly stopped receiving notifications on iOS app. Problem began with latest app version 3.0.1. Kind of important to have notifications. When will this be fixed?

@ArloSmartHome @mbmcrae @reviewed i have just spent 45 minutes on the phone trying to get help with my Arlo account from someone who has only confused me 1000x more than I was when I called. Why are you farming out your customers service to non-english speakers? it's ludicrous. problem NOT resolved.

@ArloSmartHome anyone able to help with UK support? Raised a support case, waiting days on reply, call contact number and jump through automated hoops and wait for 10 mins only for it to cut off due to "technical difficulties" and no live chat for UK either! Awful service.

@ArloSmartHome nice work. On hold for support and support disconnects...I dial back in and “I’m sorry, support is closed for today”. Terrible support

.@ArloSmartHome your products really are terrible. The baby cam shows a live stream that froze at some point in the night. It lags by at least a couple of seconds and quite often, it just sits there trying to connect. You should be ashamed of selling this as a baby safety device

@ArloSmartHome Are the Pro 4 Cameras recording to onboard storage and uploading when clips are requested or immediately uploading the footage after it is captured? We are planning about 20 of them for a property with very poor internet up in the mountains

@ArloSmartHome These forced popups, are the reason I've started using even network wide software/hardware anti-tracking, phoning home and ad blocker tools. It's been a **** tier experience can't wait to throw your **** in the recycling for a company that isn't like this.

@mbmcrae Arlo customer service is trash. I have had to submit 3 tickets for the same thing, no updates from your company, a ticket lasting over 13 months, the entire duration of my subscription. @ArloSmartHome is the worst and should be seen as false advertisement at this point.
