Violates Consumer Protection Act, 2002 (10-day cooling off provision)
Dear Consumer, Do not enter into a contract with VIVINT Home Security. Although stipulated in their own contract, they do not allow you to cancel the contract without a fight. I have turned the matter over to Consumer Protection Ontario, and they will be taking them on. Under the 10-day cooling off provisions of the Consumer Protection Act, 2002, I am now at war with VIVENT Home Security to exercise my legal right to cancel my contract with them. At this time they have repeatedly tried to take money off of my credit card and they have threatened me that each time they do not get their money I will incur further charges. They are sending me harassing emails and have now started to call me demanding payment for a service that i do not have as the system was removed from my home. I entered into the contract on June 21, 2019 and sent written notice via fax and email of the cancellation on June 26, 2019. The system was subsequently removed on June 29, 2019. Stay away from this company. I fault myself for not exercising due diligence before I allowed myself to get hooked into this mess. There are lots of other reviews out there citing the same experience.
