ADT Sales Misrepresentation by Eve – Overcharged & Forcing Cancellation Fees

I am furious with the way ADT and their salesperson Eve have handled my account.

From the beginning, I made it clear that I wanted the product on a month-to-month basis, not a long-term contract. Instead, Eve pushed me into signing documents that ended up being processed as a contract, even though I called multiple times to confirm this would not happen.

It’s obvious that Eve was just trying to make a sale, without caring about my actual request or what was best for me as the customer. On top of that, she overcharged me. When I first bought the device, it cost around R1700. Eve then quoted me nearly double the price ,which makes no sense at all. That’s like paying for a brand new device again.

I even put it in writing that my account must not be debited and that those documents must not be processed, but ADT ignored this completely. Now I’m being told I must pay cancellation fees because of a mess that was not my fault.

This is not how a reputable company should treat its customers. I should not have to pay the price for a salesperson’s dishonesty and pressure tactics. ADT must take accountability, cancel these charges, and make this right.

Warning to other customers: Be very careful when dealing with ADT salespeople. Make sure you get everything in writing, double-check your billing, and don’t let anyone push you into agreements that don’t match what you asked for.

Reviewer Update
I have now paid all outstanding amounts only because I want to cut all ties with ADT and move on. This was never about affordability – it was about principle and the dishonest way I was treated by your salesperson.

I do not want to be associated with a company that misleads customers, overcharges them, and then punishes them with cancellation fees for issues caused by its own staff. Please ensure my account is fully closed, that no further debits are made, and that I receive written confirmation that this matter is concluded.
