V224info (@v224info) reported@amazon @ring Most inept company I have seen. More packages coming today and tomorrow and I guarantee going to wrong street again. Your drivers are too stupid to realize 9th street is not 9th place despite me leaving delivery instructions pointing that out. Your automated bots in customer service is worse. How Fkn hard can this be????? This is 9th street not 9th place! Fkn fix it!!!!!!!

sonykay (@sonykay) reported@ring customer service is probably the worst I’ve ever encountered. When he couldn’t solve my issue, he put me on hold without telling me and has yet to return…20 minutes later, I’m still waiting
-
Scotty J (@Its34Again) reportedDay 31 of @ring STILL not fixing an easy iOS Widget problem even though they pretend they’re working on it. YEP! That’s ONE WHOLE MONTH!! They literally don’t care about customers, do they!?
-
Scooter Ames (@scooter_ames) reported@ring #Ring customer support is the absolute uckfing WORST!
-
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.

lisa (@lovemyboysdjr) reported@GlennPurcell2 @Notwokenow @ring Help. I need suggestions as what I should purchase. My indoor ring is very inconsistent
-
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.
-
Scotty J (@Its34Again) reportedDay FORTY of .@Ring STILL not fixing the iOS widgets. Even though there’s been THREE app updates in that time. They REALLY don’t care about us customers do they. If you’re not going to fix this issue can you let us know please. You’re just laughing at us now.

Yan (@indie_yan) reported@ring why are ring doorbells so bad?
-
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.

Adam Wells (@ihthrs33) reported@ring THE WORST SERVICE EVER> DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT IS ABSOLUTE TRASH

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
-
c r a n b e r r y c l o c k (@cranberryclock) reported@ring I’ve been giving it a thumbs down every day for the last month and a half.
-
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.

Bubbba Buffett (@DickBuffett) reportedPointing your security camera onto your neighbors property is illegal. @ring cameras are often just as bad as flock.

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.

wolf hound (@Sensei_Wolfe) reportedCar got broken into last night and ofc my @ring security camera somehow magically didn't pick anything up between 8pm and 7am, not a single notification or anything. Most useless and expensive security device ever created. Do not buy. If you have it, get rid of it.
-
Davey Allen (@DaveyAllen54264) reported@ring They sell poor defensive equipment. Kept calling and got the run around. Contacted them again because of the post here and they what to take care of it. Just more lies and ru around. Now they are saying they don’t work in all weather conditions!!!!!!
-
Herb LeGrand (@herb_legrand) reportedWhy is it with the setup of the Ring app, there is no option for the District of Columbia in the drop down for states? Yes DC is not a state but having to select Maryland isn't correct either. @ring
-
Maze (@MAZEHUD) reported@ring THE VIDEO DOORBELL DEVICE IS UNRELIABLE, regularly missing recordings and going offline. Despite paying for Ring Protect Solo subscription, weeks of troubleshooting & contact with support have failed to resolve the issue. Ring also makes it difficult to escalate complaints!
-
Daniel Ricker (@RickerDaniel19) reported@ring you have too many options for cameras. The app says newest or 2nd gen or newest model. Make the numbers more clear or help differentiate your products. Trying to choose and it’s way too complicated.
-
Yolanda Olivia Byrd (@YolandaNYCDiva) reportedMost times I attempt to view my @ring Safety Cameras I get error messages cause the robbery rings that Friended me are viewing & ILLEGALLY INVADING MY PRIVACY Even with Small Children in PLAIN VIEW being Normal. YES These are SUPER SUPER UNDERGROUND CREEPS & PREDATORS. Read dockets Complaints & Proof in Union County NJ

DonutOfDoom (@AnusOfDoom) reported@DailyMail I caught my neighbour on @ring doing a girthy **** on our doorstep & when I confronted her about it she told me they were warm biscuits we could all eat! Same, same but different!
-
DUBS (@KeithMugser70) reported@ring I have 5 ring cameras around my house 4 of them saying off line ???? Never had any trouble for about 3yrs , they each went off line a few days apart ?
-
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.

JeroenS (@JeroenPJS) reported@ring my video doorbell 2 suddenly has white stripes in the night footage. What could be the issue?
