Brand new Nest Hello doorbell says camera is already connected to another account

dbcook — Fri, 01 Oct 2021 18:38:02 GMT

Hello,

I'm having trouble linking my brand new Nest Hello (straight from the Home Depot yesterday) to my Nest app. I receive an error that the camera is already connected to another account. I tried a factory reset, installing and setting up through Google Home App (redirects me to set up through my Nest NFT app), and searching the forums but had no luck.

Some background though...

I am Nest NFT app tester using version 1.191.0.410.

When I received the error, I attempted to migrate my Nest Account to a Google Nest account, however, I can't sign in on the web because it says I my Nest account information is incorrect.

I think there is just some mix up in accounts, but need help to resolve.

Thanks

This sounds like you need to contact support and get the account \ device straightened out!

Hi Brad,

I still would like help on this issue. I chatted with the google nest support team, however, they weren't able to resolve the issue and suggested that I seek help through through Centercode. One positive from the conversation though, was that they were able to confirm that my camera was not linked to any account yet. Therefore, I submitted issue 201724092 on the system, but have not heard back from anyone yet.

FYI, there was a new push of the NFT app the other day 1.193.0.413, but I still have the same error. I went ahead and also sent beta feedback with a screenshot of the same error (camera connected to another account).

Is there anyway you can help push this along?

Thanks
