How do I log a complaint about NEST customer support staff?

How do I log a complaint about NEST customer support staff?

I was in a chat with a technician who had *maybe* the reading comprehension level of a 5th grader. I got so frustrated that I asked twice to be connected to a supervisor.  I was never transferred, and then the chat ended.

Now I have been on telephone hold for 45 minutes attempting to get through to a person at Google to figure out how to ask this very same question. My phone is probably going to die before I get to a real person on it, so I am asking here where it is not battery-reliant 😉

Humidity is incorrectly reporting, it is typically 8-10 points too high. Since initially reporting this 10-ish days ago, I have noticed the higher the humidity reported by my independent sources, the higher the error of the NEST. After the AC had been cranking and the humidity actually lowers, the NEST comes within 5 points. 

 

It is mounted on an interior wall, away from sun and 10 feet from the nearest register. 

 

The support team has had me restart (hold ring for 10 seconds; and also RESET from the menu. Of course, the humidistat initially reported 100%, but once given a couple hours to settle, still reported the incorrect reading.

 

They also wanted me to tape the hole, but it is a 'plastic feed-thru' fitting with a diameter no bigger than the cable.

 

It was installed 4 days before my first complaint.

No solution to the humidity meter issue has ever been offered, nor has a contact been offered regarding my first attempt with Google Chat when the person was literally unable to understand simple replies
