Unable to change ownership of a Ring Video Doorbell Pro
device-settings

Our office had a video doorbell pro installed by an interior designer who had since gone bust and unreachable. While trying to reset the doorbell, it tells us that the device is registered to a different owner and we can't seem to get this information from the application which seems to have removed all previous settings after an OS upgrade. Anyway, a month ago, I called the number (1800 8700 9781) who said that the MAC address and serial number does not exist in the database and he can't help me. It's quite strange since if it is not a legit device, we shouldn't be able to use the app to register at all. Also, there is also no way to send a picture of the device with the serial number or QR code. In the month since, we tried our best to contact the designer but cannot reach him. We really need some support and wonder what we can do next. Please advise.

    Hi @itsupportporscheap. It sounds like the Doorbell was likely set up under the designer's Ring Account, which is why it is unable to be registered under your account. If you are unable to contact the person who originally set the Doorbell up, this question would best be handled by our support team. Let them know the situation and provide all of the information you do have about the Doorbell, as we won't be able to look into it further here since the Community is a neighbor-to-neighbor forum. You can give our support team a call at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406). We’re taking additional steps to protect our team and help reduce the spread of COVID-19, so this has resulted in longer than normal wait times. If you are outside of the US, please read our response to COVID-19 [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360041597471) to see how to contact support.
