i have ring security system including floodlights.2 years ago one of my floodlight (white color) was acting weird....ring support sent me a replacement but it was the wrong color (black) so i returned it back to ring.I have requested a new replacement and ring is now telling me they cant send me a replacement because the black floodlight is still showing pending install on my system. I asked ring if they were covering the cost to install and then remove the wrong color sent to which they responded no.Since then, not only am i not able to communicate using that floodlight..the images now is completely distorted even after a reboot.I am seeking to get the unit replaced under warranty plus the cost of an electrician to do the replacementBusiness Response

On July 14th I bought a premium plan for $199 a year to be paid in full. They charged me $108.89 a standard plan which at the time I was not aware of. Now on August 1st everything stopped working. I was out of state at the time. I contacted customer service 8/10/25. They told me they attempted to take the money out and it didn't go through, and wanted me to pay again. I told them I will contact my bank to dispute. I have provided you with a screenshot of my bank statement showing the money was taken from my account.Business Response

I need a resolution to access my on-line Ring account. I tried to change my email address in my account. However, the email address was incorrect and now I cannot access my acount. I contacted Ring and they told me to create a new account. Am I just suppose to just leave my current account (that is now unaccessible) in cyber limbo and just start a new account? I have a credit card that is automatically charged every year for Ring Service. How am I suppose to stop the credit card charge if I can't access to my account. Need Resolution please.Business Response

They continued to bill my card monthly after I contacted them to switch the account after my fathers death. I sent them a death certificate and let them know we had no way to access the account since all of the information was in my fathers name. They switched the account over to my mothers name and created a new account but would not and will not close the original account even though we cannot access the account unless we file a dispute with our bank. This to me is criminal theft on the part of Ring. We are paying for 2 plans on the same device and no way to cancel the original plan.$Business Response

On july 10th my ring flood light stopped working. I called support and they deemed it defective. They stated they would mail a replacement. It is now over a month and the replacement is back ordered. This is a security camera. I prepaid for ring premium protect security for the year. Refuse to tell me when they will be able to replace the camera and provide compensation as my home is not secured and I cant use the subscription I paid for.Business Response

Complaint: 23699543
I am rejecting this response because: someone reached out, no return number. Sent me an email saying they were going on vacation to send them some dates and times to make an appointment to talk. Was already stated 1 month without hardware. Paying for premium subscription to a security service is bad service. With no offer for compensation. As my family is vulnerable as a warranty was offered on the products that wasnt fulfilled.

**BUYERS BEWARE** I purchased 2 Ring solar cameras around 10 months ago. They stopped connecting to my wifi about 6 weeks ago. I spent HOURS talking on the phone with my internet company to see if anything has changed that would affect the cameras, and spent hours on the phone with ring. After no resolution, I got on the phone with a manager who offered to send me a Chime Pro free of charge and promised it would fix the issue. The cameras have been working up until yesterday. I spent another two hours on the phone, with another manager, Raffy, who said my device was broken and would ship me a new one. Yet, after spending hours on the phone and only installing these 10 months ago (and paying on my own for the installation) the company is not willing to help me pay for someone to re-install this camera. These foreigners create these faulty devices and force you to pay for someone to re-install even under warranty. Scammers!!!** BUYERS BEWARE**Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: this company did nothing to cover the cost of having to install a new product that was faulty under their product warranty. Additionally, ***** who I spoke to was quite condescending, and tried to insinuate more troubleshooting steps can be done to try to fix my broken device. He also informed me theres another $50 of account credits, which he has no idea where they came from. This is the most unprofessional company *** ever dealt with * try getting a job at a fast food joint like McDonalds * maybe your incompetence and unprofessionalism with fly there.Sincerely,

I am rejecting this response because: your **** *****, was condescending and also said its normal to have issues with these devices because theyre reasonably priced. I paid over $300 for these devices. I also have this conversation recorded. He did absolutely nothing to help and in fact, offered to help fix the device which would require even more time spent on the phone with this crappy company. F off.

Currently, I have three active ring plans assigned to my email address:1. my address, 2. our church garage, 3. my mother's address In October of 2022 my mom was put on hospice. She had her own ring account in her own email address attached to all cameras at her home. Once she passed away late October, I removed all cameras from her account and placed them on mine using my email address. My ring subscription for that plan was done. Fast forward to 2025. I received an email from the card company that all of my autopay bills are on stating the are going out of business. I logged in to change my payment method to another card. The following month, I noticed a ring charge. Knowing that I switched everything over, I called Ring AND my card provider to get my $ back for the charge. They said it wouldn't happen again. Another month passes and by the time I'm refunded for the 1st incorrect charge, another charge appears and takes the $ away again. So I called Ring again and finally got to the bottom of it. Although the cameras were removed, there was a chime device connected (no fee associated) and that was prompting it to charge me. From November 2022-June 2025, I have been charged for the monthly ring subscription with an inactive account/email no cameras attached. I also have been also paying from my account/email for that same subscription. I requested to be refunded from Ring, they said they can only give me 3months back out of all that time. When I asked why, the agent couldn't answer me. She directed me to contact the card company that I used for the payment. But they aren't the ones who kept taking advantage of the fact that autopay was set up on an account with no devices connected.Business Response

I began service with ************************** on May 26, 2025, under a clearly stated rate of $9.99/month for the Home Standard plan. Since then, Ive been charged approximately double that amount. When I reached out, Ring claimed a price increase notice was sent in 2021. I was not a customer in 2021, and this notice predates my account by four years.I am requesting a full refund of the overcharged amounts and a correction of the subscription rate to the agreed $9.99/month moving forward.Desired Resolution:Refund of overcharges Monthly subscription adjusted to $9.99 Confirmation that outdated pricing notices wont be used to justify new customer ratesBusiness Response

A Ring Doorbell was installed during the construction of my home. We moved in November 2024. It was noticed 7/31/25 that a crack had developed on the button part of the ring doorbell. I looked into the warranty as well as others who have had similar issues online. I reached out to Ring for a warranty replacement or repair and was denied by them saying it is "physical damage" and they cannot process a warrant and could only offer 35% coupon for a new device.Per their own warranty statement on the ************************** website, this should qualify as a warrant covered repair/ replacement. The device was not subject to "(a) accident, misuse, neglect, fire, alteration, or (b) damage from any third-party repair, third-party parts, or other external causes" as would void their warranty.(Warranty link: ************************************************************************************************************)I am simply asking for Ring to honor their warranty and fix or replace the defective device as laid out in their own warranty on their website.Business Response
