Each of my family members has a different security provider and ADT is by far and away the worst - they make you sign a 3 year contract without telling you that if you ever want to cancel then you have to pay 75% of the total 3 year bill - they have horrendous customer service takes over a month to get someone to come out and fix any problem that you may have - takes up to an hour to get... more
Terrible service, over priced, lack of knowledge, will put you on hold for more than 25 minutes to connect! Consider local company, PLEASE do not use ADT Security! Not worth it.
Do not sign a 3year contract with ADT.
I installed ADT in 2012, but the equipment and wiring was already in the house, they just had to connect it to their monitoring system.

I called ADT Security to upgrade my alarm. They were very helpful and prompt. They also advise me on which security surveillance and alarm system would be best suited to my needs. I am very satisfied with their service

He mad a huge mess. he didn't finish the job and had to come back then we had to stay home again away from work. The job was done okay but the tech was very careless and made a huge mess in our bathroom. from the... more
I signed a 3yr contract (approx$450 per yr for monitoring) and specifically told the sales person that I wanted to own the system when the contact expires. He told me I could buy it from them in 3yrs. This wasn't written in the contract and I'm kicking myself because the contract says "equipment remains property of ADT" in small print. I've had no problems with the system...only problems with... more
