Kevin (@McNamara_Group) reported@googlenest @madebygoogle Subject: URGENT ESCALATION: $650 Nest Hardware Unusable / Account Locked After Church Vandalism To Google Nest Support / Escalation Team: I am writing to urgently escalate a situation that has rendered $650 worth of brand-new Google Nest cameras completely useless due to an automated account lockout loop. Recently, our local church was vandalized. I have been a loyal Google user for years and personally promised our pastor that Google’s ecosystem was reliable and spectacular. Based on my recommendation, we purchased four new Google Nest cameras to secure the building. Here is the exact timeline of what has happened: I set up a new dedicated Gmail account specifically to manage the church's new security system. I successfully set up all 4 new Nest cameras on that account using my mobile phone. Everything worked perfectly on my device. I then gave the email and password to our pastor so he could log in and monitor the system from his end. Instead of letting him log in, Google’s automated security randomly locked the account and sent an email demanding an explanation for why the account was created. I provided the full explanation, and the account was officially "restored" 2 days later. The Current Issue: Despite the account being restored, the system is STILL blocking any login attempts from the pastor's devices or any computer. It continuously throws an "unrecognized device" error, even with the correct password and recovery information on file. Because of this endless security loop, we cannot hand over the account to the church. Right now, these four cameras are essentially $650 dead sticks. We cannot monitor our recently vandalized church. I understand Google has automated security measures, but I need a human being to look at this account, lift the device lock, and allow us to actually use the hardware we purchased. I need this escalated to someone who can resolve this immediately.

Wendy Bunt (@wendy_bunt) reported@BanHammerJags @MAGABarbie317 @googlenest In your last post....this quote from you "he was framing John's death as an accident"....please explain! If you are already signed into the Ring app, you do not need to sign in again to use it, as it is designed to keep you logged in for, at minimum, 30 days of consistent use!

Beef Jerky (@Farr351226) reported@cotywithaT_ @googlenest @madebygoogle The thing I found work, the best was to unplug it and leave it unplugged for a week and it worked better but still not reliable enough for what you want a camera to be and my other two cameras that I didn’t update still work well Google sucks and did nothing to help

Valentino Gonzales (@nodoubt212005) reportedI’m having trouble with the video or securing my @googlenesthelp camera. I’ve watched all the videos, but none of them mention a secure loop that’s connected to the camera.

Luise #muddyankles 🏴🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🇺🇦 (@luise_g) reported@googlenest stop sending me reminders to replace my nest smoke/ CO sensor, when there is no google nest replacement device in the UK… wholly pointless and VERY annoying, exceptionally poor customer service … I’m sure Google has loads of useless excuses though …

Kyle Field (@mrkylefield) reported from Montalvo, CaliforniaI can't wait until somebody replaces the garbage Google puts on its nest devices with @xai's @grok. It's frustrating having @googlenest hardware in the house when it's effectively useless for anything other than playing music and playing a slideshow of my photos.
