      We signed up for an upgrade. The tech showed up without the right equipment and was told to stop installation, after having disconnected our service. The tech they then scheduled to reconnect our service weeks later did not show up. All the while still charging us. I was promised reimbursement which never came. We then cancelled our service officially and continued to be charged the next two months. I have called multiple times to only have to repeat myself and continually be transferred to someone else who could not help. Today I was told because my account was closed they could not refund me the last two months they charged.

      Vivint’s
      records indicate that Ms. ******’s account has been cancelled. Out of goodwill
      and to assist Ms. ******, Vivint is willing to refund the last two months of
      payments in the amount of $158.79. Ms. ****** should receive this refund within
      7-10 business days.

      This company has gone into my account without my permission and charged $300.42 for services. Instead of cutting the services off, they let the bill get high and go into my account. I am on a fixed income now my other important obligations cannot be met. I need this money credited back to my account immediately. The representative Victoria J****** stated that she agrees that this is wrong but stated that I owed this amount. The point is that I did NOT authorize them to go into my account.

      To Whom It May Concern:
       
      I have reviewed the information provided by ******* **** and appreciate the opportunity to respond.
       
      In his complaint, Mr. **** states that instead of cutting off his service, Vivint waited until his past due balance was very high before going into his bank account and taking the money due without his permission. 

      Due to the amount of credit given as well as the history of non-payment, Vivint agrees to waive ½ the past due amount that was paid and refund it back to the customer, to help with his financial distress.
       
      Vivint’s records indicate that the customer moved 1/2022 and was charged $99 for installation and $212 for new sensors. Mr. **** did not pay that invoice. His account was written off on 5/31/22 for non payment. He was reinstated on 6/9/22, per his request, and was given a credit for $212 and an additional $102.94 credit to help bring his account current. Vivint’s records indicate that after reinstatement, Mr ****, did not make any payment to Vivint for the next 7 months. On 1/4/2023, Vivint processed payment for the months he was in arrears, per his signed Purchase and Service Agreement

      The Purchase and Service Agreement that Mr. **** signed on 12/11/21, states in section 2.5 titled PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION that “You authorize Vivint to make electronic fund transfers from your bank account or to your credit card. The electronic payment in the amount identified above as your monthly service fees, equipment chargers installation payments, applicable taxes including all PAST DUE amounts, trip fees, service fees or amounts which may accumulate in arrears according to the terms above. 

      A representative from Vivint has reached out to Mr. **** via phone call and email in an effort to resolve this matter. However, Vivint has agreed to the above resolution and he may contact Vivint’s representative directly with any further questions or concerns in this matter.

      If you have further questions or concerns regarding this response, please respond to either our mailing address: **** ***** *** ****, Provo, Utah 84604, or fax number: ###-###-####, attention Department 160 – Legal.

      I am totally disgusted with the continued lack of technical support, quality customer service and utter waste of my valuable time on the phone for hours with technical support only to be lied to saying that someone will call us back and when I ask for instructions emailed to me because you can’t understand the representatives, they never reach me. This time I waited while we were on the phone to confirm the emails, they never came. I asked for a telephone number I could call to complain, she gave me 2 #s supposedly the escalation team-I called while on the phone and let her hear the number you have dialed is not in service. She said its because they not open now, totally insane. No matter what time of the day, she gave me a wrong number TWICE! You’re on hold for long periods and there are several dead silent moments. The entire phone conversation appears to be staged and scripted. I repeatedly asked to have a technician to come out since they can’t resolve the problem over the phone. She said she can’t do that. She had the audacity to talk to me about the referral program, I let her know that I could never refer anyone to deal with what we have to go through.

      I was prepared for the foolishness today and decided to screenshot the amount of time I was on the phone this time, one hour and four minutes! Thankfully I did because guess what? She hung up on me!

      This morning’s conversation was horrifying and prompted me to write and complain after dealing with this for months.

      Here’s our issue - We have not been able to use our alarm for months now because it says motion in the basement, no one or anything is down there and the panel says everything is closed. We set the alarm, leave and then it goes off. We ignore it this matter for a while because we honestly we’ve been trying to avoid the consistent conversations when calling that number and on the phone so long and nothing is resolved but at the same time, we’re paying for a service that we’re not receiving.

      I contacted a Vivint rep for information on a security system for my home beginning of November 2022. I was given information at that time and since then I have had nothing but negative results from this company. I have spoken with several people at Vivint in their **************** and have received confirmation emails on what they should be billing me for my account. Services and equipment.....Still they seem to call me or bill my **** incorrectly . My monthly service for monitoring was confirmed at *****. They have billed me once for this right at the beginning incorrectly. I have yet to see another bill for monthly monitoring. Im assuming its due to credits they promised me for making errors on their side. My equipment total for the security system totals ******* and this is being billed thru ************** I received my first statement for *****. I paid this on 12/27/2022. This is to be paid off with no interest per our agreement. The main issue is I ordered cameras and spotlights from Vivint. The total is $****** and this was to be paid in 5 payments of in 5 months. ****** per month x 5 equals ******. I have talked to Loyalty several times to get this resolved and today I look at my **** and they charged me ****** on 01/04/2022. I have spent hours on the phone with Vivint since i started doing business with them. They have the same documentation I have and have promised to clear up the matter in the past. Still they persist on billing incorrectly. I will be filing a complaint with the Attorney Generals offices in **** and ********** over their business practices. The first time their technician came out to install equipment he did not complete the job. I had to wait 2 weeks before he would be out again. Then his supervisor did not have the same information on cost that their loyalty department had offered me. He was going to take the tech off the job and go somewhere else. I resolved the issue and he remained. Now they are billing wrong.

Mr. ******* monthly monitoring charge has been corrected and is now $29.99. Mr. ******* payment installment plan now reflects the amount of $170.00.

      I entered into a 5 year contract with them over 13 years ago. I called today to cancel the service because we will be selling our home. They told me my contract will not end until 7/20/2025. And if I want to end early I would have to pay $1800.00. I pay $30.14 a month. It has been so long ago that I cannot find the original contract. They stated I renewed the contact with them which I do not recall doing. I have never received a renewed contract from them. I don't receive any documentation from them ever. Not even a monthly bill.

      In ************** complaint, ************** states that she attempted to cancel the Vivint account to selling her home. She states she was told she is in contract until ****. She states Vivint told her to cancel she would have to pay $1800. She states Vivint told her that she renewed her contract which she does not remember doing. ************** desires cancellation of the agreement.

      Vivints records indicate that ************** signed a Purchase and Service Agreement (Agreement) on April 28, 2008.

      I am rejecting because Vivint did not provide proof that I entered into a new contract with them in July 2021. I would not have signed a new contract since we purchased a lot in 2021 and are building a new home. It doesn't make since that I would enter into a new contract for 4 years knowing I would be selling the property and moving in less then 2 years.

      I reached out to Vivint because the security system I have is beeping and I dont have service with them any longer. I wanted them to reset the pin for me to access the panel so I could make the beeping stop and continue to use the panel. I was told I would have to reinstate my account for them to help which is ludicrous considering they are the only ones that can help reset the panel which has long been paid for. When I initially purchased the system I was told I would be able to continue to use the system without having monitoring services if I ever canceled. The agent I spoke with disconnected the call after I asked to wait for a supervisor because there were none available. The sound is beeping continuously and I cant do anything without access. Before I was disconnected she told me it would be ***** hours to get a call back. It is shocking that any company would have this type of policy and would be allowed to try and force someone into their monitoring services.

      I find it absurd that the business is able to maintain control over my panel even if I supposedly owe the business money. The debt they are referring to is for the monthly monitoring services and not the equipment. I dont find this response acceptable and if they want the system back I  will gladly send it to them for my money back. It only worked half them time anyway.

      We notified Vivint on July 29, 2022 to please disconnect our service because we were moving. We received a bill approximately 1 month later for services that we had already canceled. We called and told them we canceled 1 month ago. They said, that we had to send an email to cancel not just call. (They said they would retro the cancelation because no one told us this when we called to cancel) We sent an email to cancel on 08/30/22 and they said it would be taken care of. The next month we received another bill for 2 months with late charges added as well. We called again and said we canceled what is going on? We forwarded the cancelation email to them and they said it would be taken care of once again. The following month we received yet another bill for 3 months plus late fees. We called again. We forwarded the prior 2 emails and were assured that this would absolutely be taken care of this time, we spoke to Enrique on 12/08/22 @ 11:45am We were given a case # of CA-********* (By Enrique A*****) It obviously wasn't taken care of because we received yet 1 more bill. Our current bill with them with fees is now at $240.41. We do not owe this, we have done everything and then some to cancel our service and have made many calls to try and correct this with no avail. Please help. What they are doing is illegal and they seem to be praying on us elderly folks. I have attached the email chain that has been sent to them 3 times now. Thank you for your time.
