    I have a subscription to Kami Vision YI IoT camera cloud app. The app DOES NOT give users an option to cancel subscription. The only option given is a 1800 number that does not pick up, and a generic customer service email. This business PURPOSELY set this app up like this, hoping users will keep their subscription due to the difficulty to cancel. I do not know if they will cancel my subscription. I believe I will have to shut off my linked card in order to stop payments to this company. Did I mention the subscription is auto-enrolled as well? Anything to make it easier to steal money from customers.

    I have Yi Home, part of Kami Vision, home cameras. During the month of May, I activated a cloud video storage subscription for $4.99. I activated the subscription from the Yi Home app, downloaded from the Apple App Store on my iPhone. Iused it for a few weeks, to try and figure something out with my cat, and then I used the app to cancel the subscription in June. In August, I realized I was still being billed and I went into the app to check on my subscription. The app shows the subscription is still active, but when I open the settings where normally I would cancel it, it tells me that this plan was purchased with an Android device and must be managed from an Android device. I do not now and have never owned an android device. I have contacted Kami Vision support numerous times over the past 5 months, and they tell me slightly different things that all add up to: they arent the person who can help me, do X, instead. And nothing ever comes of it. I have actually begged for them to please have a supervisor contact me. At this point, I have been improperly charged for 7 months, for a total of $34.93, and there is no end or resolution in sight. In my last email I begged them to have a supervisor reach out, and said if we cant resolve this I will need to contact the BBB. I received a form reply telling me to use the ** chat in the app for help. So, here we are. The attached screenshots are only some of the conversations, as Gmail has the threads organized in a way that is a little confusing.

    I was charged for a subscription to see video footage without my knowledge and I have sent 3 emails without a response. I would like the 184$ refunded. This business does not operate in integrity and ethically, and has poor customer service. We will be using another service from now on. I need a refund.

    I paid this company for a year worth of continuous cloud storage for the ability to watch past camera footage. I have since lost cloud storage and was charged the monthly amount to get it back. When I opened the app, it said I needed to pay for my service. I paid on top of my yearly amount. I reached out to the company on the only way possible with no reply from the company. There is no phone number or email listed. Only a message board. No reply back.

    Hello *******,

    Ive looked into the status of the refund request you submitted. Unfortunately, the reason it was not processed is due to the payment method used. Since the payment was made through Apple Pay, we do not have the ability to issue refunds directly for this method. You will need to contact ***** directly to request a refund. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

    If you have any further questions, please dont hesitate to reach out.

    Best regards,

    10-9,13,15-2024 =$536.57. I had one account and one service for one camera. Service was terminated by Yi iot/ Kami vision. I paid service without realizing I had service on auto pay with ************ Kami vision established another account instead of paying current active account. I tried multiple times thinking it was not going through and **** made multiple accounts. I contacted them through there website immediately and to this point **** refuses to refund the fraudulent accounts they established to defraud myself of moneys. I have repeatedly told ****/ Yi iot to cancel all accounts and auto pays and they have refused. They are now telling creditors that I was outside the three day cancellation. That is a blatant false statement. I never established these new accounts and told them immediately.

    I have continued being charged for a subscription that I have tried to cancel via email. I also tried calling the phone number on the website and the call does not go through. I have also tried using their "live" chat, which is just AI chat that redirects you to a link that is broken and leads to no website.This feels like a fraud company that does not allow you to cancel your subscription.They did not answer my email nor did they cancel my subscription.

    Hi Katie,

    After reviewing your account, I can confirm that your auto-renewal for the plan has already been terminated, rest assured that you will not be charged in future months. However, I did not find any tickets in our queue related to your cancellation request, so I am unable to determine the exact date of your initial contact to assess refund eligibility.

    Regarding phone support, please note that our phone lines were discontinued in July. Support is now available exclusively through the app. Please ensure your app is updated to the latest version to be directed to the correct support links.

    Please let us know if there is anything else we can help you with.
