Connection Issues

I was going to give 5 stars but over the past two days, I have had connection issues with the ADT Pulse app connecting to my alarm system. I have contacted ADT more times than I have been able to count in the past two days and tomorrow a tech will do a virtual call once again for the second time in two days to try and resolve this issue. All of the techs via either chat, phone, or in-person have been amazing but are unable to fix the problem. The only way I can get my pulse app to connect is to activate a sensor then the app connects. Until I do that it either says it still connecting or it says it's not connected. The techs can't find out why this is. I need my app to work with my alarm system so my wife doesn't have the headache of manually having to arm and disarm the alarm system. I am letting you know of this issue in the hopes that you may find a fix for it so other people will not have this issue. Me and my wife need to have remote access to our system so this is one less issue she has to deal with in her day-to-day life. As they say,… happy wife happy life… and to have this issue fixed will make my wife and I both very happy. 😊 So… I'm hoping you can look into this and find a solution to this problem. Maybe between you and ADT, a solution can be found. 🤞

Review

I think that your system is awesome for the inside of your home, but for the outside of your home it doesn’t capture all four corners of the house so that means the family that is bullying me behind me gets to jump over my fence break some of the slats sometimes knock on my bedroom window, constantly throwing stones at it jumping through my backyard knocking on my backyard door and none of that is ever captured. My car has been damaged twice the tire has been slash that was never caught on camera how is that possible on my car is parked 5 feet in front of the camera. Just the other day white paint was scraped off my car and there was no footage of that once again how could that happen when my car is parked right in front of the camera. The only good thing about your systemIs Win the guys behind me or in my yard or getting way out of control I set my alarm off and it lets the neighbors know somethings going on and they run back in the house. But that’s only deters them for a few minutes. But now if I had to do it all over again I would not get this system it’s only for a home intruders it’s not for people that want to vandalize the outside of your home or harass the person that’s on the inside of the home.

The life of our family at home being on film

I am great-full in so many ways for ADTs’ camera’s being available for us, as they are for my husband and I, right here in Scarsdale. As a mom, always on the move, busy doing something for my kids and the husssband, it gets pretty tuff to have eyes on our three kids, ALL the time. As always, I’m preoccupied with my day to day duties/chores and I can’t avoid the thought cross my mind that maybe I need to run down and check on them. Once upon a time, in the middle of something I’d been tryna finish for a couple days now and getting in the groove, would have to stop, only to be interrupted by a nervous/worrisome thought bout the kids, since, of course they were in the storage/playroom, adjacent the garage and of course I was on third floor, evidently put off once again what I was tryna finish. But no more putting off. Thanks to ADT, those fearful thoughts are not there and for that I will always be forever great full.
So after all that being said I can’t expect perfect. However if I had the ability to actually control the movement on each camera and pin point what I’m looking at/for, wooooo weeee, now that’s when I’d say we’d be talking serious business. But, ummm, who am I to say something’s not perfect? Lord knows I’m not. But who is? Right?
ADT - you guys rock!!!
Thanks a mill!!!!!!
