Joseph Gruber (@josephgruber@josephgruber.space) (@JosephGruber) reported@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

justin (@BadRammaJamma) reported@ArloSmartHome @ArloSmartHome why am I not allowed to talk to a live agent even though I bought your equipment and it’s not working??? I have to pay you again for a subscription before someone will talk to me, if anybody is considering Arlo, don’t buy it!
-
Ed Moreau (@edmoreau) reportedI have been spammed by @ArloSmartHome for a few weeks about a sale. I own several Pro 4 cameras and have questions about a newer model. But the AI chat (which IS NOT very intelligent at all) refuses to connect to a human because my cameras are too old. WHAT THE ACTUAL **** ?
-
Alex (@alex__0113) reported@ArloSmartHome Where do I start… •Your 6month battery claim appears to be more like 1 week •you have more or less double your CVR prices • Why can CVR not be locally stored • I can’t view my cameras live on a laptop • poor customer service Poor company. Would never choose again
-
Gerard Krupa (@uxian) reportedApparently @ArloSmartHome are raising their prices so they can replace their buggy app with a new shiny buggy app instead of fixing the bugs.
-
Steven Barczyk (@barczyksm) reported@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.
-
Hugo Cruz (@Hugeduar27) reported@ArloSmartHome My Arlo Essential Wireless Security Camera 3 Pack the battery don't work, i have 6 months with this cameras and the life battery is around 1 hour... i need help with this...
-
d@nielle (@daniellemrubio) reported@ArloSmartHome I cannot log in on app or browser or reset my password. I get an error each time and it tells me to contact support but then says I don’t have access to support. Can you help me so I can use the system I paid hundreds of dollars to install? This is insane.
-
Cyndi (@theredwings26jk) reported@ArloSmartHome Resolved the problem everything is back on and working.
-
Donna Rosser (@barefootphoto) reported@ArloSmartHome your customer service and secure plan are a joke. No help.
-
Bonnie Showerman (@BonnieShowerman) reported@ArloSmartHome The absolute worst doorbell ever made! No support help, can even speak to a live person. Don’t wast your money!
-
Brendan Gill (@scribeteach) reported@ArloSmartHome Is there some sort of system-wide firmware update issue?
-
mauriciobond (@mauriciobond23) reported@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”
-
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
-
Merryfield Homes (@MerryfieldHomes) reported@ArloSmartHome can someone please reach out to me. Your chat support is not resolving my issue
-
John (@JohnBurke72) reported@ArloSmartHome officially done with arlo. Cameras constantly disconnect now base station no longer connects at all. Garbage, buy @ring
-
Jason Abbate (@JasonBrobbate) reported@ArloSmartHome please fire whoever designed this interface. This is the worst thing I have ever seen in my life.
-
Steve Musselman (@SteveJMusselman) reported@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!!
-
taylorpineiro (@taylorpineiro) reportedLooking for a terrible example of an #aichatbot? Look no further than @ArloSmartHome! Truly an atrocious experience.

Keith Meyer 🍎🌰 (@koyote19) reportedHi @ArloSmartHome - fix your network. Don't tell me to DM with my problem. All of us are having issues. A company with good customer service would update their customers on any issues.
-
Eric W (@ejtt7ciia) reportedTo add insult to injury, 4 days after a new controversial EoL policy, @ArloSmartHome sends an email about 20% price increases. Congrats Arlo - you lost a lifelong fan after two bad decisions. It's the timing - you have to give users more than a couple months notice...

I am no one. (@mahasitavati) reported@ArloSmartHome @verge Customer service is the worst, not worth it. Do not buy from this company.
-
SAMA (@SAMA92458684) reported@ArloSmartHome Unfortunately I couldn’t log into my account from my phone or from any other devices. I tried to do all the steps that mentioned in the website through the society experience please, I need help to login .
-
Jaszlyn Fennelle (@JaszlynF) reported@ArloSmartHome Why is it so hard to get help ? It seems so many people are having trouble with battery problems and I need help ! You have to have a subscription to receive live support ? My cameras don’t work !
-
Justin Edmead (@JustinEdmead) reported@0zFoggy @ArloSmartHome I completely agree. I am fed up with @ArloSmartHome and seriously considering alternatives. The support has been poor for a long time and is not of the quality you'd expect for the price they charge. Not much tangible problem solving from tier 1 support
-
Tungen Gasche (@TungenGasche) reported@ArloSmartHome How many times an hour does an "unexpected error" have to occur before it's not "unexpected" any more?
-
Melissa (@llprncs) reported@ArloSmartHome @ring I bet ring doorbell would help me set up my doorbell if I got one from them how is Arlo such a piece of junk the entire company no one can help four months later still no doorbell set up
-
Mircea Piturca (@mirceadesign) reported@ArloSmartHome has probably the worst customer support ever. I have contacted them several weeks ago and I still did not received any response. Amazing how these companies treat customers nowadays
