Ring Reviews

While the Ring security devices aren't the problem, the cascading $$$ effect to have to buy this and then that, and then update, then subscribe, it feels more like a device pyramid scam to the senior citizens out there just trying to live safely and protect mail and deliveries by using motion and alert sensors and yes, cameras. What good is buying a camera if you can't review anything if you don't subscribe to a "Plan?" Monitoring fees for services provided for security monitoring by Ring I can understand, but what about for those who do not want outside monitoring? I bought a Wzye outdoor camera before buying the four Ring devices (DBCamera, IDCamera, MBSensor, Light Bridge (because you can't use the MBS without one!!!) and am not on any subscription plan yet it serves the purpose of both camera and review options. In hindsight, I should have went with the all Wyze devices, I'd have spent less and received more for my money. As a retired professional, I can no longer keep up with the escalating price gouging for having to purchase everything piece mail or patchwork style. I had to return the MBSensor because it wasn't clear why I needed a "bridge" to connect when I didn't have any smart devices in my home that would require that device. I figured it out once I got the device and couldn't connect it. As one of many senior citizens on a restricted income, you might want to consider what AARP and Consumer Cellular does... offer a discounted rate and serve millions of us instead of price gouging and serving a smaller proportion of that population.
