-
Dorian Finney-Smith Muse (@DorianMuse) reported@note4note @amazon @ring Same thing happens to me all the time. Amazon needs to fix this major problem.
-
Crazed Dems 🇺🇸 (@FreedomAlways9) reported@ring How do I turn off this completely useless AI ****? Giving you a long description of what you're literally seeing with your eyes? Completely useless but everyone has to try to implement AI in some fashion to show how up to date they are
-
Jesus (@benjohnson4prez) reportedI just realized @ring pushed out some AI bullshit for a free month, without me saying yes to it. There's no way to cancel it unless you cancel the service. Congrats ring, service cancelled. Next time ask us if we want that ******* **** pushed on our cameras. ********!

Helen D (@Helen_D_Snow) reported@amazon @ring I am writing to request assistance with a long-standing technical issue affecting my Amazon account. For several months (possibly close to a year), I have been completely unable to use the Customer Service Chat feature. Every time I attempt to start a chat, I receive the following error message: “Sorry, it looks like we hit a snag. Please select Try chat again. If you see this message again, you can try another help option.” This problem occurs consistently: On every order, not just a specific one. In the Amazon mobile app. Repeatedly over many months. Selecting “Try chat again” never resolves the issue. Because this has persisted for such a long time, I believe it may be related to my account or a backend technical issue rather than a temporary system error. The inability to use Customer Service Chat has made it very difficult for me to contact Amazon whenever I need assistance. I would greatly appreciate it if your technical team could investigate my account and restore my access to the Chat service. I have already contacted Customer Service multiple times regarding this issue. Unfortunately, the problem has never been resolved, so I am reaching out to your Executive Customer Relations team in the hope that it can be investigated by the appropriate technical team. If any additional information, screenshots, or account details are needed, I would be happy to provide them. Thank you very much for your time and assistance. I have always appreciated Amazon’s customer service and hope this issue can be resolved. Attached is a screenshot of the error message for your reference.

Nanabozho (@SaltyRiverWater) reportedMan, @USPS has a serious problem. I mailed a sealed box of cards back in April. Box was never scanned so I opened up a Missing Mail Search. Yesterday, after 6 weeks, I get a notification that it was delivered. Reached out to the buyer and let him know. Buyer provided @ring video showing that no delivery was made. @USPS where did this package end up?
-
DonutOfDoom (@AnusOfDoom) reported@ScooterMcNeice 🚨🚨🚨 My neighbour barracks for the Dons and 3 weeks ago I caught her on my @ring doing a girthy **** 💩on our doorstep so I’ve little to no sympathy for Don fans at the minute. 🙄 They’re filthy animals imho🎯
-
C™🇺🇸🇵🇭 (@citizen_ian) reported@ring you guys have the worst customer service in the world. The lens cover that’s supposed to protect the lens fell off, which isn't supposed to happen, and therefore makes the camera defective. And the best you can do is give me a 35% discount for me to spend $ to replace something I didn't break. Do better.
-
Dtino (@gdfilipe) reported@ring terrible system , a total ripoff , I got 2 cameras and door bell a chime and a bracket allowing the camera to move around , I need to give it away , but the person must physically come remove it. I will not spend another ounce of good energy on bad things.
-
Eddy (@eddy_3y4) reported@sabucci_84 @ring @ring im experiencing the same as Sabrina mentioned, I cannot see the snapshot between activities. Do you have any update about this issue?
-
Nicole (@DiamondEyez986) reported@ring bought a new ring spotlight camera and realized the lights should only come on with motion . . . I have an older one and the light never turns off? I've tried everything #help
-
Misses microwaving fish in the office (@richgjaci) reported@HDCares @HomeDepot Sunnyvale CA Kifer Rd store couldn't help with @ring cameras. It was self service but I couldn't get to any of the product as it was in a cage . I even showed the staff members the product and its location in the app and still couldn't get any assistance.

FACELESS SHEIN INFLUENCER (@sheininfluencer) reported@ring TERRIBLE SERVICE, SEND MY ORDER!!!
-
Pumblechook (@pumblechook) reported@ring Ring 4K Retinal Camera picture quality is not so great with very poor picture degradation when zooming in. I have tried different models including the POE versions. Even Ring tech support have given up. Very poor products
-
Bubbba Buffett (@DickBuffett) reportedPointing your security camera onto your neighbors property is illegal. @ring cameras are often just as bad as flock.
-
Christopher Brown 🟧 (@CptDylDozer) reportedKia boys broke into wife's car overnight. Nothing was in the car and they couldn't get the thing started. @ring camera was absolutely garbage and caught nothing but human-free snapshots before and after. I am going to refrain from stating my thoughts or feelings on the matter, since I kinda like X.
-
FULLΛM (@waynefullam) reported@Ring the fact that I was able to seamlessly resume a support chat I started yesterday, with the new agent already having full context of the previous conversation, is a really elegant system. They had the issue resolved in under 5 minutes once I was on-site with the hardware. More companies need to do this.
-
Vikas Chowdhry (@english_august) reportedI’ve spent 10 minutes on @ring app trying to figure out how to configure which @AmazonAlexa device rings for my ring camera but I don’t have a clue! Apparently “linked chimes” does it if you have a chime but “linked devices” option is something entirely else. Alexa and Ring apps are two worst designed apps and despite all the talk about AI capabilities from Amazon, their AI supported queries functionality is absolutely unusable.
-
MaryWV (@MaryWVwv) reported@amazon @ring Amazon needs to fix this absolutely crazy huge blunder! Do you need a dictionary?
-
Brad Rice (@BradRice14) reportedAwful customer service from @ring . Multiple times trying to resolve an issue that is at their end and never a resolution. No complaints department and no escalation paths. Poorly run
-
Davey Allen (@DaveyAllen54264) reported@ring I despise this company they don’t make it easy for anything. I had to change Internet service now they want me to take all the equipment down to reset it I’m disabled so I can’t be doing that. They don’t make anything easy and they don’t care. I am so sick of this
-
Mike Btt (@MikeBtt) reported@ring my doorbell went offline last night and ever since I’ve not been able to reconnect it to the broadband network. I have been onto @CommunityFibre but they can’t fix it.
-
Jay (@JAYintheBX) reported@ring Stick Up Gen 3 cameras are the worst! Always glitchy and constantly disconnects from Wifi (router is 5 feet away). Terrible product
-
26thAccount (@FirstNameTX) reported@Sriniva41473307 @amazon @ring **** you shitskin
-
Lisa M (@higgs_623) reported@ring Just replaced my spotlight camera that just quit with/newer model—it’s terrible. Why did you change design of the battery door to a twist instead of keeping the button drop down door!! It’s a real pain to get off & back on. And you changed to mount so I can’t use that 🤬
-
Yan (@indie_yan) reported@ring why are ring doorbells so bad?
-
Toby Benson (@tobymedia) reportedAmazing how a multi-million dollar company like @ring can have such terrible UX in their app/website that it doesn’t let you subscribe to their pro package… like I’m trying to give you money & you’re not letting me - crazy! This page opens whenever I click to upgrade and it’s a dead page with info about the plan… and says “plans can’t be managed in the ring app” and there’s nowhere to click!! Madness.

Scooter Ames (@scooter_ames) reported@ring #Ring customer support is the absolute uckfing WORST!
-
lisa (@lovemyboysdjr) reported@GlennPurcell2 @Notwokenow @ring Help. I need suggestions as what I should purchase. My indoor ring is very inconsistent
-
Barry Harding (@BazzaHards) reported@ring not impressed with your customer service 😡 You send me a faulty product, can’t resolve the issue despite 5 phone calls (kept getting disconnected by you), then I have all of the inconvenience of sending faulty bit back BEFORE you send me a replacement ! Shocking 🤷🏻😡😡

Dan Spack (@DanieltheLion1) reported@ring I was able to figure out the meaning of the signal strength. What’s still bothering me is why the signal strength on my Spotlight camera is still showing as Poor when I installed a WiFi modem extender close to the device.
