*** MOST RECENT MESSAGE FROM SUPPORT ***
Hope you’re doing well when our message reaches you. I am [Support rep name omitted] from the Services Team, and I’ll be taking over to acknowledge your recent response. I am sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Home Monitoring and that it did not alert law enforcement. . We are very thankful for the time you took to talk to us regarding this matter.
Kindly make sure that you are outside test mode in order for the service to work. If it is already outside test mode, please go ahead and reset service. To do that, go to Account>Services>Home Monitoring and Reset Service.
If it’s still not working, please send us the firmware version of the hub and a device log. You can submit a log through individual devices by tapping on the Product > Device Settings > Wyze Support > Submit a Log.
Please note that app logs are sent directly to our engineering team to use towards improving future app and firmware releases. These logs cannot be accessed or followed by our support team. We’re working on developing a process so that we can track these logs but it’s still very much in progress.
Please inform me that your log has been submitted by replying to this email with the log ID once it is sent. After that, this request will be closed as we are unable to offer any further troubleshooting. Keep an eye out for future app and firmware updates. If the issue persists after those updates, please continue to submit logs so that our engineers can continue improving our devices.
Let us know if you need anything else.
Thank you for being a part of Wyze!
*** MY MOST RECENT RESPONSE TO SUPPORT. NOTE THAT THIS RESPONSE WAS SENT BEFORE I UNDERSTOOD THAT SUPPORT INTENDS IGNORING ANYTHING MORE I HAVE TO SAY (SEE ABOVE POSTING) ***
[Support rep name omitted], thanks for your response to my message. Please let me clarify the heart of my concern. I want to know what actions that the HMS took were actions it should have taken and what actions, if any, were erroneous and should not have been taken.
Please let me offer an example of what is apparently an erroneous response. You wrote that, in Test mode, the system does not request law enforcement action. Yet, did you read what I wrote in this regard? The system sent my emergency contact an SMS message stating: “Our monitoring center has notified [customer name omitted] of the alarm and has requested law enforcement be dispatched to the address.” This message was sent about 20 minutes after the Alarm event, which was cancelled by keypad about 1 minute after it occurred. In addition, no telephone call was made by HMS prior to the message being sent. And, I can find no evidence that law enforcement was requested, notwithstanding the message stating that law enforcement WAS requested. At risk of being overly repetitious, key questions in my mind include (1) what actually happened and (2) what should have happened.
If you have not already done so, I urge you to read the forum posting referenced in my first email message. The online form afforded me only 7 lines of text in which to explain the problem. The forum posting is not constrained by length and so I was able therein to offer a clearer and more complete statement of the problem.
I have questions regarding your direction to reset HMS. However, I’d like to postpone resetting HMS until we’re able to make some progress toward understanding what has already happened.
You also ask for a log. Please note that when I created this ticket I specified log ID 911154 as having been submitted not long after the events in question occurred.
I hope that my responses are helpful to you. If I’ve cut too many corners here and there I’m happy to redo the necessary actions if you will simply advise me of that necessity.
Thanks for your help!
Cheers,
