Has anyone ever gotten an email address, phone # or to a live person to address billing questions?  I've just been charged $129.99, without getting any email or invoice.  My Account says I have no subscriptions, and that I am "NOT ENTITLED TO TALK TO A PERSON, good luck with the Chat (futile) or trying to research via the Community Support"  -which was no help other than to affirm my problem is common.

Were you trying to purchase an annual subscription?

I bought a subscription so that the record button would reappear. Only to be told I don’t have one, nor am I ENTITLED to speak to a live person. I want money returned, and Arlo isn’t entitled to see what I record. Smdfh How do I cancel sub? Been looking all over on how to do that. If I’m entitled enough to get any reply, thank you ever so kindly.

Are you sure you purchased it from Arlo?  If you googled, you might have purchased from a scammer.

I recently received a charge for $160.49, also with no invoice and no explanation of the charge. I cannot get anyone at Arlo on the phone or chat because I do not pay for a subscription which is ironic since I was charged money for who knows what. I disputed the charge on my AMEX, and they said the merchant sent proof of charge but the "proof" was general and offered no details regarding what the charge was for. I am extremely frustrated at the inability to reach customer support. I am going to redispute the charge with AMEX, but it's ridiculous that it has to come to this and take this much of my time.

Charge back for fraud; it's what I'm going to do later today, after filing a police report for the fraudulent charge on my bank account.

I received the following email from Arlo. I cancelled my subscription in 2023 and removed all cameras. Will report as fraud if my credit card is charged.
