This is a very dishonest company This is a very dishonest company. I did not know they still owned the phone. And then when the location feature wasn’t working they wouldn’t help, just kept passing the buck saying it was Google that we needed to contact. I could not even get an actual person at a Google to help me, it’s computer generated stuff that was I credibly unhelpful. When I told Bark I either needed the location feature to work or else I needed to disconnect the phone they insisted location isn’t really very important. Sorry, but they don’t get to decide for me what is & isn’t important. When I tried to ask for help in their Facebook group they blocked me. When I demanded that they turn off the phone they turned it off, but refuses to return the unused portion for the month. We hadn’t even used it for one week yet they kept the amount paid for the whole month. And then we had to return the phone (because apparently they still own it even though they don’t tell you that anywhere until you terminate service) & even though we hadn’t even used the phone they looked & said the screen was scratched & they charged us $59 for that lie. The whole thing is such a scam & they are so dishonest & sleazy. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY.

Scam charges I returned the phones as requested by bark company to terminate services. The service was very glitchy and insufficient and over priced. After returning phones that were in good shape no scratches no damage nothing....bark emailed stating ill be charged 59.00 for repairs. There was no details regarding their fake allegations just a statement that I'll be charged. I immediately reached out to customer service they wanted details from me to understand why I felt I shouldn't be charged but could not come up with an itemized list of they fake alleged damages yo the phones. They did not respond to me after that but proceeded to try an charge my bank. SCAM ALERT!

Bark Parental Control App review Bark Parental Control App review Bark DOES NOT work consistently with Apple products. It seemed that time that Apple had an update, Bark stopped working and we’d have to spend HOURS on email (you can’t call Bark - you have to set up an appointment to talk - days in advance!) and also with Apple. Don’t ever give your credit card to Bark. They renewed our subscription, even though we continued to have problems with it working. We asked for a refund within 3 weeks but they somehow talked us into trying to get it to work again. It temporarily (never went for more than a few weeks with all devices backing up to it,) so we asked to cancel a few months later. They refused stating that their terms if service are to offer NO REFUNDS. If you have $99 to burn and hours and hours of time to devote throughout the year to getting Bark to work again, then go for it. If not, find another monitoring software!

Purchased the Bark phone with app Purchased the Bark phone with app. Got it yesterday and after spending 5 hours attempting to set it up and get her apps working I give up. Something like this should not be so complex for an adult with the full access to the app. There is no way to call anyone to walk through the steps and all the answers online refer to mostly just the app not the actual phone. Its ridiculous. It conflicts with google mail for kids to set up a phone as well. Day 2 and im sending it back I already wasted way too much time and energy on figuring this out.

Inane AI emails IS NOT CUSTOMER SERVICE! Purchased Bark Home because I was told they would help me troubleshoot it if I had any issues installing with my router. It turned out that customer service meant AI emails and no real person to ever help. It was exasperating. And I finally got another anonymous email with the Return address for the Home unit and another that said they canceled my account, even though I did not ask to cancel my account. No apology, no "can we make it right?" Very disappointing. I was planning to do the phone app as well, but definitely won't be doing that!
