All six our cameras are Dropcam? Now what! $$$

[Fa2]

Our subscription will renew soon, and I'm in the process of deciding to go to another service provider. Is there any trade-in deal for our current cameras?

@Fa2 

We don't have any Dropcams; our oldest cameras were purchased in 2019.

This is Google Nest's blog post on Dropcams and other changes:

https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Blog/An-update-for-our-Nest-Secure-Dropcam-and-Works-with-Nes...

"If you are a current Nest Aware subscriber, we will be offering you a Nest Cam (indoor, wired) on us to help you keep your home secure. If you are not a Nest Aware subscriber, we're offering a 50% discount toward a new Nest Cam (indoor, wired)."

Judging from other posts in this forum, it seems customers whose Dropcams were actively being used a month before the April 7 announcement should have received an email offering this discount on up to 2 Dropcams.

I think if you have further questions, you probably need to contact Support, using the link and instructions in this post:

You're screwed, plain and simple. I don't have dropcams, but I am being screwed by the price increase. I'll be moving to Ubiquiti before my current subscription ends early next year.

Thank you Jenelyn,

Customer support will not answer my e-mails and I've been on the phone for an hour as well.

I just want to end our annual subscription and I can't even do that.. Frustrated!

Hi Fa2,

I apologize unreservedly. I'd like to take a closer look at it. Could you please provide your case ID number?

Hello Jenelyn,

We finally got through to customer service, and they were more than helpful in canceling our Nest contract. Thank you for your help and attention.  best, --Paul
