Vivint Smart Home

According to the FTC, Vivint's sales representatives helped unqualified customers get financing for the company's home security products by misusing other people's credit reports. As a result, people who had never interacted with the company found Vivint accounts on their credit reports. Some people were contacted by debt collectors for accounts they didn't open. Settlement benefits: The FTC is sending 470 checks totaling nearly $500,000 to people who had their credit reports misused by home security company Vivint Smart Home. The FTC is now using that money to send payments to people who filed a valid claim before the deadline. Can I still apply for a payment? Yes, for information on how you can still apply for a payment, call the administrator at 1-833-472-1996.
