You’re looking to get a home alarm system. You’ve called multiple companies and are ready to get security. You have bad credit though. Can you get a home alarm system if you have bad credit?
You can. Even if you have bad credit you can get protected. The offer though differs depending on the company.
ADT, Vivint, and Frontpoint, for example, will do a credit check on prospective customers. If the customers match credit requirements, the customer can get a zero down alarm system. They will have to agree to a contract. The contract is usually 3 years at over $35/month.
If the customer has bad credit they will then have to pay some money upfront. The monthly rate can also raise. These amounts differ with each company.
The best choice for customers will bad credit is a company with no contract. No contract means no terms of payment. You purchase the system up front. This is the same price regardless of credit score. Then you pay per month through a credit card or through direct withdrawal.
A few companies that have no annual contract are Think Protection and Simplisafe. Do your research when choosing between the two companies. Ask what the upfront and monthly costs are, what you’re getting and if the system comes with a mobile app for free.
If you have bad credit, never go with a company with a contract. You will be paying significantly more both short-term and ongoing. And in any case, always ask upfront about credit scoring. And make sure if there is a contract you read the fine print.
You can get a great home alarm even if you have bad credit. You just need to know where to look.
Your article is not accurate. ADT won’t work with you AT ALL if you don’t pass a credit check. I just tried not 5 min ago.
So true they want help u they said put in someone name
I need a alarm for my home put i don’t have credit at all .iF you want to much for it in down payment for got it im not rich im sorry im payment to much here put people jush call i didn’t not call are answer my cell i hate peoples call to make funny if me tell me i need 1000.dollar i don’t have it is funny put now im laughing about you all i don’t answer no much i no you don’t have it
We don’t do credit checks, however you do have to buy the system upfront. The price is incredibly low. There’s also no annual contract, so you can cancel anytime.
How much is the system?
Our most popular package starts at $199.99 and $18.99/month with no contract
This is a BIG LIE! you can not canceled at anytime, I signed up for the alarm system in another state for my second home, letting the sales representative, know of my schedule for being in town to test the system. The system installed, not knowing that I had only 3 days to canceled the service without being charged for the equipment. so now I’m stuck with equipment and paying monthly for service that not any good at my home it only cover the front door and you must be directly at the door. My second complaint that the payment should be automatic each month, I will get email and phone call saying that the payment is pass due, looking at my statement all payment is paid on time. My third complaint I get transfer so many time and the representative have such an attitude problem. My little account don’t means much but it have someone with a job. and kindness never hurt no one. I can truly say this is the worst company for business that I ever dealt with on alarm. I never want the representative that signed me up to even come to my resident again, he need more training he’s worst than a used car salesman.
I need home protection but my credit score is not good
Think Protection can help. With a No Contract option and lowest monthly fees in the industry it is your best option
So what company will consider me with bad credit
Adt will not work with you without a credit check
Couldn’t get it through Vivint because they couldn’t pull up anyone’s credit and I didn’t have good credit. False
I have called 3 home security and they do credit check and my credit isn’t good I am 68 years lives alone .And I think they worrying more about credit than a person safety.
Give Think Protection a call at 1-855-768-4465, we can help
I have an old Vivdnt system. Will it work with your stuff so I don’t have to buy new equipment. Would like to buy a few more cameras though
Depending on what you have installed we may be able to use the existing sensors. Give our sales team a call at 1-855-768-4465 so we can go over your options.
I would warn anyone to avoid Vivint, they are liars, they won’t send help if alarm goes off, you have to go to local police and tell them who you are and if you may need help, they increase pmt. they have outdated equipment, and the contract is 4 long yrs not 3. a salesperson came by one day all smile and asked so how you liking your system and I said not worth a damn, she couldn’t even get the cover off the motion sensor to check battery and I couldn’t, their system goes off line and I swear with my hand raised every week and you not them have to go through all these inputs to try and get back on line.. they are awful, I can’t wait until this contract is up.
My credit is not that good but I do need a security system where I live
ADT will NOT work with you when you have bad credit. Even if you are enrolled with a debt management plan. Their “suggestion” to us last night was to “talk to family members, friends, whoever… And use THEIR good credit scores to obtain a security system through them.” Uhhhmm HELL NO!!
ADT also requires an upfront fee. Ours would have been $99 but they were going to give us a $100 Visa gift card so that cancels the other out, making the initial nothing.
There was NO OFFER of a higher monthly rate, we MIGHT have considered that!
We’re looking elsewhere where there is no credit check, affordable monthly rates and NO CONTRACT
Looking for Alarm systems that doesn’t require credit checks at low cost for our home
Vivant was a no for us. They want 1700.00 upfront. Plus a 49.00 per month agreement. Rep was nice but unrealistic. There aren’t any alarm companies with options that are affordable. I am looking for protection at a reasonable price.
Having home alarm has another benefit that most people don’t know and it is that you can get better insurance rates if you have home surveillance and alarm system. Since having surveillance reduces the risk of burglar attempts.
