-
Shane Marshall (@semarshall2007) reportedPiece of **** @ring can’t event ******* record any ******* thing worth using unless it’s for there ******* use.
-
HeIsRightAgain𝕏 (@HeIsRightAgainX) reportedThere is nothing more insufferable than ordering @ring products, having the shipment arrive without the key component, calling customer service (apparently in SE Asia)...encountering an accent so thick it's not understandable (and I've traveled to SE Asia frequently on business), and trying to resolve the issue, being told the phone number on your profile is not in their system, and the phone number on your order (same number) is not in their system, but that the order number IS, but that is still not sufficiently identifiable. Thank God I recorded the call.
-
JB (@john4brown) reported@ring what terrible customer service you have. For a company owned by @amazon you really need to step up your order management and customer service people. Just terrible experience and I’m trying buy a product!
-
Ansky (@runanskyrun) reported@ring I have a strong connection, but one camera is frequently going offline
-
Yan (@indie_yan) reported@ring why are ring doorbells so bad?
-
Jeffery A Thomas 🇨🇦 (@JefferyThomas) reportedHey @ring! Can you fix your damn app? It keeps telling me my trail has expired when I have an active subscription.
-
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.
-
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.
-
amanda (@amandac46) reported@ring the doorbell is offline. Has power rebooted router still not working other ring camera is fine.
-
Mari Ricks (@EveMenace) reported@ring @FBI @FBIDirectorKash I recently experienced the loss of approximately four hours of surveillance footage. Because I pay for continuous recording, this interruption is concerning. The recording stopped unexpectedly, and your customer service department informed me that the issue was due to low internet connectivity. Please advise.

Marcel Wagenaar (@marcelwagenaar) reported@ring is there a malfunction? Can’t log in and my system is offline. #ring #ringalarm

Scotty J (@Its34Again) reportedDay 25 of @ring STILL not fixing an easy iOS Widget problem even though they pretend they’re working on it. They literally don’t care about customers, do they!?
-
MaryWV (@MaryWVwv) reported@amazon @ring Amazon needs to fix this absolutely crazy huge blunder! Do you need a dictionary?
-
Scotty J (@Its34Again) reportedDay 21 of @ring STILL not fixing an easy iOS Widget problem even though they pretend they’re working on it. They literally don’t care, do they!?
-
jack (@ApeManitoba) reported@ring non-functioning customer service. I’ve spent two hours two different days on the phone trying to get a clear answer on transferring an account. Information that’s contradictory and hard to understand literally. A good company bad customer service
-
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.
-
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 🤷🏻😡😡
-
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
-
Harvey Fawkes (@HarveyFawkes) reported@WyzeCam If you ever partner with Flock, Palantir, or Law Enforcement the way @ring and @amazon do, I will cancel my **** and physically destroy all 12 of my cameras and find a new option. I need your commitment that you wont give in to this bullshit dragnet.
-
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.
-
Scarlett Shaw (@ScarlettShaw) reportedI brought the new @Ring 2K battery camera to replace my old 3. The viewing angle is awful. With the camera next to the door, you can’t see the door. Motion detection seems just as bad and the image quality is marginally better. Improved night vision though. #Ring

Startup Academy (@vc__backed) reportedThe story of Ring and Jamie Siminoff is one of the best examples of waiting for the right moment. Jamie was able to sell Ring for $1.2 billion to Amazon, but first he had to turn down an offer from Shark Tank. "Kevin O'Leary gives me this offer, which was it just going to bankrupt the business. It was like royalties and all this stuff. Like we needed to build something bigger." - @ring Founder, @JamieSiminoff on @The_RoomPodcast

Scotty J (@Its34Again) reportedDay 20 of @ring STILL not fixing an easy iOS Widget problem even thing they pretend they’re working on it. They literally don’t care, do they!?
-
Clayton Knight (@mrcajunjoker) reportedHey @ring so I replaced a floodlight cam and added another. I have them shared with my gf but the new cameras aren’t showing up on her phone. Her email is under shared access for both cams. Is there an easy fix for this? Or do I delete her access and add it back?
-
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.
-
BetweenTheLines (@visionfaded22) reported@ring are ya’ll having a system outage or something ? Your app is bugging out bad. Saying no subscription and the dates are all messed up. Have an active plan till 2027 but it’s not working or showing.
-
𝘊𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘦 🪬 (@aka_carrie) reported@hayes_wayne @ring I’m having this issue as well, it’s only started within the last 3 days, and I can see on here that other people have reported the same.
-
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.
-
The New Release Guy (@moviesplusgames) reportedI'm pretty sure someone at @Ring is telling people what's going on with my camera footage or some other ****. Sure seems like it. Maybe get a different company. Nobody knows certain **** about my cams but me, but the neighbors sure seem to. And when I'd make complaints, the Ring outreach team or whatever it's called would constantly try to contact me and their reps would all have obviously black names, and my neighbors are black, so... Not hard to fathom in this age, especially when employees got caught looking at video (and this was before that story broke. I've had Ring for years now).

MaryWV (@MaryWVwv) reported@amazon @ring Why? Why in trying to get help did I receive 2 people that did not understand ENGLISH!
