How to Contact Arlo Customer Service

Arlo Technologies corporate headquarters:
Arlo Technologies, Inc.
5770 Fleet Street
Carlsbad, CA 92008

The corporate-office number is not Arlo’s general camera, subscription, order or technical-support line. Customers should begin through the official Support Center.

Does Arlo Have a Customer-Service Phone Number?

Arlo does not publish one general telephone number that every customer can call directly.

Eligible customers can request telephone assistance through the Support Center. Phone-support eligibility may include:

  • Customers with an active Arlo subscription
  • Customers using an Arlo Secure trial
  • Customers with a new product purchased within the applicable support period
  • Customers installing an Arlo device for the first time

To request a call:

  1. Open the Arlo Secure app or sign in at My Arlo.
  2. Open Settings.
  3. Select Support Center.
  4. Select the affected product or subscription.
  5. Choose Contact Support.
  6. Select Call a Live Agent or request a callback when available.

All customers can use Arlo’s chat and self-service troubleshooting resources.

Beware of Fake Arlo Support Numbers

Search results, social-media comments and online forums may display telephone numbers that are not operated by Arlo.

A fake support representative may ask for:

  • Your Arlo password
  • A verification code
  • Remote access to your phone or computer
  • Payment through gift cards or cryptocurrency
  • Complete payment-card information

Use only Arlo.com, the Arlo Secure app or My Arlo to initiate support.


Arlo Camera Is Offline

Before contacting support:

  1. Confirm that the camera has power.
  2. Charge the battery when applicable.
  3. Restart the camera.
  4. Restart the Wi-Fi router.
  5. Restart the SmartHub or base station.
  6. Confirm that other devices can access the internet.
  7. Check whether the Arlo app is updated.
  8. Review whether a Wi-Fi password or router was recently changed.

Low battery power can cause intermittent connection and streaming problems. Arlo recommends maintaining an adequate charge before performing more advanced troubleshooting.

Camera Went Offline After Changing Wi-Fi

An Arlo device may need to be reconnected when:

  • The Wi-Fi network name changed.
  • The Wi-Fi password changed.
  • A router or internet provider was replaced.
  • The camera was moved to another property.
  • The device was removed from the Arlo account.

Use the product-specific Wi-Fi-change instructions rather than immediately performing a factory reset.

Factory Reset an Arlo Camera

A factory reset removes the camera from its previous configuration and may require the product to be set up again.

Before resetting:

  • Charge the battery.
  • Confirm the correct reset instructions for the exact model.
  • Save any recordings that must be retained.
  • Confirm that the Arlo account password is available.

Use a factory reset only after basic power, battery and network troubleshooting does not resolve the problem.

Arlo Camera Battery Problems

Battery life can be affected by:

  • Frequent motion events
  • Long recordings
  • Live viewing
  • Weak Wi-Fi signal
  • Cold or hot temperatures
  • Night vision
  • Spotlight use
  • Repeated connection attempts

If a battery will not charge:

  • Check the charging cable and power adapter.
  • Clean and inspect the charging contacts.
  • Allow the battery to charge indoors at a suitable temperature.
  • Try another compatible charger when available.
  • Check for swelling, leakage or physical damage.

Stop using a damaged or swollen battery and contact Arlo for safe replacement guidance.

Arlo Live Video and Recording Problems

If live video does not load:

  • Close and reopen the Arlo Secure app.
  • Restart the camera.
  • Restart the mobile device.
  • Restart the router and SmartHub.
  • Move the camera closer to the router or SmartHub.
  • Disconnect a VPN temporarily.
  • Test another phone, browser or internet connection.

Tell support whether the problem affects:

  • One camera or every camera
  • Live viewing only
  • Recorded video
  • Notifications
  • The Arlo app and web account

Missing Arlo Recordings

Check:

  • Whether the subscription is active
  • Whether the camera is armed
  • The device’s motion-detection settings
  • Activity Zones
  • Feed and Library filters
  • Local-storage settings
  • Whether the device was offline
  • Whether the recording-retention period expired

Download important recordings before the applicable storage period ends.


Arlo Subscription Billing and Cancellation

Arlo subscription plans can include cloud video history, intelligent alerts, activity zones and emergency-response features.

A subscription may have been purchased through:

  • Arlo.com or My Arlo
  • The Apple App Store
  • Google Play
  • Another authorized billing platform

The subscription normally must be changed or canceled using the same method through which it was purchased.

How to Cancel an Arlo Subscription

For a plan purchased directly through Arlo:

  1. Open the Arlo Secure app or sign in at My Arlo.
  2. Select the applicable location.
  3. Open Plan or Subscriptions.
  4. Select Modify Plan.
  5. Select Cancel Plan.
  6. Complete the cancellation steps.
  7. Save the confirmation.

Arlo states that support representatives cannot cancel a subscription on the customer’s behalf.

A canceled plan generally remains active through the end of the paid billing period and does not renew afterward.

Apple or Google Arlo Subscription

A plan purchased through an app store must generally be canceled through:

  • Apple subscription settings, or
  • Google Play subscription settings

Deleting the Arlo app does not cancel the subscription.

Charged After Canceling Arlo

Check:

  • The cancellation effective date
  • The renewal date
  • Whether a confirmation was received
  • Whether a second Arlo account exists
  • Whether Apple or Google controls the subscription
  • Whether another location has a separate plan

Arlo subscriptions may be associated with separate email addresses or locations, resulting in more than one charge.

Duplicate Arlo Subscription Charge

Before reporting a duplicate payment:

  • Confirm whether both charges are posted rather than pending.
  • Review every Arlo account and email address.
  • Check Apple and Google subscription histories.
  • Ask household members whether they used the payment method.
  • Review whether each property has a separate plan.

Contact Arlo through the Support Center with the dates, amounts and last four digits of the payment method.

Arlo Order, Return and Refund Problems

For an order placed through Arlo.com:

  • Use Arlo’s customer-service chat.
  • Provide the order number and purchasing email address.
  • Check the order confirmation and tracking information.
  • Do not rely on an unverified order-support phone number.

Order-support live agents are generally available daily from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Pacific Time.

Wrong, Damaged or Missing Arlo Product

Photograph:

  • The product
  • The shipping box
  • The product and serial-number label
  • The shipping label
  • Damage or missing components

Keep the packaging until Arlo confirms the return or replacement procedure.

Arlo Warranty and RMA Support

Do not mail a device to Arlo without first obtaining a Return Material Authorization.

To request an RMA:

  1. Gather the product serial number.
  2. Locate proof of purchase.
  3. Open the Support Center through the Arlo Secure app or My Arlo.
  4. Select the affected product.
  5. Submit the warranty claim.
  6. Follow Arlo’s return instructions.

Retain:

  • The RMA number
  • The shipping label
  • The tracking receipt
  • Photographs of the returned device
  • The replacement confirmation

Replacement Camera Will Not Connect

Confirm that:

  • The old device was removed from the account when required.
  • The replacement camera is compatible with the system.
  • The app and SmartHub firmware are updated.
  • The new serial number is being added.
  • The battery is charged.

Contact Arlo through the existing warranty case rather than opening several unrelated cases.


Stolen Arlo Camera

If an Arlo camera is stolen:

  1. Save available recordings and screenshots.
  2. Do not remove the device from the account until important evidence has been saved.
  3. File a police report.
  4. Change the Arlo password if account access may be compromised.
  5. Contact Arlo through the Support Center.

Eligible subscribers may qualify for Arlo’s Theft Replacement program. Requirements can include an active eligible plan, proof of purchase and a police report submitted within the program deadline.

Arlo Account Access and Security

Customers may need help because:

  • The password-reset email does not arrive.
  • The telephone number or email address changed.
  • Two-step verification fails.
  • An unfamiliar device accessed the account.
  • A family member or former resident retains access.
  • The account was created using another email address.

If suspicious activity is detected:

  1. Change the Arlo password.
  2. Change the connected email password.
  3. Review two-step-verification methods.
  4. Remove unfamiliar devices and shared users.
  5. Review subscription and payment information.
  6. Contact Arlo through the official Support Center.

Do not share a verification code with anyone who contacts you unexpectedly.

Older and End-of-Life Arlo Devices

Some older Arlo products have reached end-of-life status.

This may affect:

  • Firmware updates
  • Security updates
  • Cloud services
  • Repair or replacement availability
  • Compatibility with newer app features

Check Arlo’s current End-of-Life policy before purchasing a used camera or troubleshooting an older system.

How to Escalate an Arlo Complaint

  1. Sign in before contacting support. This connects the case to the correct account and products.

  3. Save evidence. Keep screenshots, serial numbers, receipts, videos, subscription invoices and error messages.
  4. Request a case number. Retain chat transcripts and callback information.
  5. State the requested resolution. Ask clearly for troubleshooting, a replacement, cancellation, billing correction or refund review.
  6. Follow up through the same case. Explain which promised action remains incomplete.
