Nest Cam Outdoor is missing wall plates.

My newly purchased Nest Cam Outdoor is missing wall plates.  Bought two.  Started to install them.  Both are missing wall plates.  

Frustrating.

I have the same issue.  Purchased one of the Nest Camera (Battery) as a gift.  When starting installation noticed the wall plate was missing.  I contacted support today and was told that since it was over 15 days, unable to get a return.  Also unable to buy a wall plate from the Google Store.  Was told to look at other vendors who may sell a wall plate, but no insight into who that may be and searches so far can't find a replacement. 

So I'm stuck with a unit that is non-functioning.

ridiculous.  Google should fix the problem they created.

Solved.  Nothing more needed.

Yes, this is still an issue. Received an email asking to contact live support to address.  Once I connected I receive the same answer of "I'm sorry to inform you that we do not have an option to process the mounting plate from our end. "  Nothing has changed in the past few weeks.   When asked for a refund, even when purchased through the Google store, they are unable to support either.  I have a unit that cannot be used, no matter what.

Speaking with a Supervisor this evening, once again unable to solve the issue.  "regret the inconvenience caused", etc.  But still stuck with a unit that was purchased that will never work.

Thanks Brad,

There is no "troubleshooting" per se - the part is missing.  Cannot be installed without it.  I see no 3rd party offering it.  I went back to my supplier and asked for help.  We will see.  

Still open

Brad,

I purchased two Nest outdoor cameras.  Both were missing the wall plate.  What is the probability that I got the only two boxes that were assembled without the plate?  Highly likely this indicates a quality control problem at the assembly plant.  It's a Google/Nest problem they should recognize it and fix it.

Hey folks,

 

I do not process the actual replacement, I only send the request in for one. There are delays and a backlog right now. I do not have any ETA to provide at this time. Thank you for your patience, and we appreciate you bringing your concerns to these Community Forums.

 

Best Regards,

Brad.
