Deleting videos

I would like to be able to delete videos on my outdoor camera at my discretion instead of having to wait for 30 days. I live in a circle and there is a LOT of traffic.

Product reliabilty

My system seems to have one item every other month go bad. First door sensor, them siren, then another door sensor, then camera Ann now another door sensor. Since I dealt with various systems while working as a security system inspector for El Paso County, Colorado this is a joke. Why does this happen? Estimated replacement time for items gone bad is usually 10 to 14 BUSINESS days.

Change method of payment

Changed billing from a MasterCard to checking account for my monthly monitoring fee. Hope after 20 minutes it has been done correctly. Gentleman was very polite and tried to help but didn't know how to change from a credit card to auto withdrawal from checking. Feel issue resolved. If not next billing may be rejected since I must close my Mastercard account and get a reissue. MasterCard was compromise

Did not receive delivery as stated by email

I found out that I did receive an entry sensor which I did not order. I call them back and they said that they have reordered my video doorbell. Lets see if they can get it right this time. I like the company, but the people that run it are not the sharpest pencils in the drawer.

Help setup

Very happy with help setting up my system. As slow as I was they hung with me. I am very thankful for that.

3/5

Charges are endless

While the service they offer is above par, they lack important features like interactive cameras, 360 or even 180 degree cameras, the ability to save or download video and receive notifications without a contract or without a security based contract. On the plus side, I find their app reliable. On the bad side, I had to call in, I was not able to setup on my own.

Horrible customer service

First agent was absolutely inept and should seek employment elsewhere . She was not helpful at all. Asked me to charge my outdoor camera battery and call back in 5 hours! Already have extra batteries that are charged and ready to go ( since I have several outdoor cameras) . However, she just hung up when I told her we were going to take care of issue right away. Had to call back and have second agent walk through the installation process. Whats the use of paying for service if the equipment doesnt work???

Resolved: SimpliSafe's defective item replacement service is terrible.

Updated by user Jun 03, 2022

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with product replacement. SimpliSafe replaced my defective camera, but they made the process hellish.

I did not receive an apology, nor did I receive a discount for the grief they gave me. I'm canceling the monthly monitoring service..

I bought six cameras with my initial SS order. Five of the sux setup easily, easily following the app procedure. The sixth camera, and indoor model SSCM2, can't read the QR code. I tried several times across several months, using different USB cables and wall adapters from my functioning cameras. - I called tech support and walked through all steps again without success, but they wouldn't issue an RMA. I called customer support to voice my frustration and ask for a replacement. CS put me on hold for 7 to 10 minutes to "verify some details." The CS rep came back on, asked for the model & serial numbers, then put me on hold for another 5 minutes. The rep came on again and told me it was going to take her another 20 to 30 minutes to finish verifying something, and they'll call me back with the replacement instructions. What can they possibly need to verify? I'm a paying customer in good standing. As of this writing, I shave not received a callback or an RMA. This is absolutely unacceptable technical and customer service. - The Customer Service agent who promised to call me back never did so. I finally called SimpliSafe back to find out the status of my replacement. It turned out the neither the tech support rep, nor the first customer service rep I spoke with did anything to try to generate a return to me. They logged my calls, but never took a single action or made any attempt to resolve my request. - The second customer service rep I spoke with did create a product replacement order for me, provided a return shipping label, and was apologetic about the treatment I received from the first two people. I haven't received my replacement, yet, but she explained it would take 3 - 5 days. I received a confirmation number for the replacement, so I believe I will receive it - I do not consider this issue resolved. I still expect a written apology from the management at SimpliSafe, as well as free monthly service for 6 months, to compensate me for my time, frustration, and poor treatment from SimpliSafe technical and customer support representatives.
