I called support two days ago and spoke to Jeremy when our alarm mysteriously tripped on a window sensor. First thing my wife asked was, why didn’t we get a call from the Ring monitoring station about the alarm? So I called Ring support and they told me the system was in Self Monitor mode.
This has happened twice within the past year without any intervention what so ever from the Ring app. I paid for the yearly Professional monitoring service, activated the Pro service in the app, and for no reason it falls back into Self Monitoring mode. This is EXTREMELY worrisome that I’m depending on an alarm system that is also tied into our smoke/CO alarms throughout the house. Jeremy, while very professional, didn’t understand it either. I asked for him to escalate this issue to a higher level to see why this keeps happening. He said he created a ticket and I should have received an email, which I’ve yet to see.
Outside of this, I don’t have issues with this system and it works pretty well. I even want to buy a 2nd one for a 2nd property but now I don’t have confidence. What’s the point of paying for the Professional monitoring service when I cant trust its going to stay in that mode?
