Does the Arlo service/Tech Dept. view this forum?

[billkex]

Does anyone know if the Service/Tech dept. of Arlo read these posts?   Or is this just a forum where Arlo owners vent and share experiences?

These are serious issues that never existed a few months ago. (lousy  image quality, video playback freezing, skipping speeding up, slowing down, etc.) 

From what I understand, If I contact customer support, I will be charged for their assistance.

In a nutshell, do we know if Arlo is looking into these problems? ....or is this just a waste of time?

Arlo community managers do monitor these forums. However the best way to get support is to in fact contact support via this link

Is support handled by Arlo themselves or by a third party?

Perhaps both.

As @Streak2 says, there are Arlo people here, bit there is also the official support channel which may, like many businesses, use call centres.

Thanks.

so we are not sure is what is boils down too. It’s just seems all a bit scripted but as you say that’s how some companies feel it should be conducted.

Thanks Shayne, could you possible let us know if support is Arlo or is it handled via a third party?

[NewfieDrool]

Shayne I found the answer.

would it have been that hard to tell me customer services are handled via salesforce.com, it’s not exactly private or confidential.

Im guessing maybe you are part of this company too hence the script type replies.

arlo need to get this sorted as as the product is good but you often hear support is not the greatest.
