    Same problem here but the remote connection times out in about a minute,  and certainly not five minutes. TeamViewer is not a workable solution for remote management at present due to these issues. I've also reported the 'suspected commercial use' to the team and it normally takes a few days for this block to be lifted.

    I understand the fact that TeamViewer's attempt at protecting their revenue stream is valid, as we (the community) are benefitting from a free licence - however, the software incorrectly applies its blocking methods when all I appear to have done is change a Raspberry Pi hostname?

    I got an email stating that my post was removed because I was advertising competitor products.

    I didn't mention a single competitor product. I just asked if I switch to any other product if I would have to give up two features of teamviewer that I like, file transfer and VPN. How come other post just have the competitor product name censored but my entire post was deleted?

    I wonder if the censors work 24/7 or just during Germany working hours.

    I waited 5 months but still blocked. I gave up now and switched to an alternatives. That is very similar to TV and free of charge!

    Good luck!

    He all, what could we post say on LinkedIn, where our professional lifes are attached, about TV treatment of those who they claim there is a free version, and the very poor service without ruining our reputation as 'complainers'?

    Is there one good post here, or outside, we can all amplify?

    I think TV needs to learn the power of social media now....

    Just an idea...

    Hello friends, i am here to ask a questions about teamviewer api. is it possible to integrate teamviewer in a website? so that one can login and access any PC from one place. don't need to switch again and again from here and there? Basically i want to integrate in our company educational related website. we planning to start online classes within our website.

    Still no response from Teamviewer my end.  **bleep** 'em, I've got a perfectly good alternative up and running and won't be looking back.

    Also the company I work for will never use Teamviewer now, nor will the clients I supply!

     

    Well done Teamviewer. Well done.

    I've been using TeamViewer for years as a free user. This software is still offered for free for personal use only. And I only use it to connect to my 3 son's computers to fix any problems they have when they're at home with their mum. It saves the yo-yo trips back n forth every time they have a problem. But I've started getting commercial use detected randomly popping up & limiting my connection to 5 minutes & then blocked for 10 after that about a year ago. 
    I filled in the form & they responded, resetting my ID within a month. But it happened again & again & again. Until it happened again in Fab & I filled in the form & I am yet to receive a response. 

    I'm starting to feel like they're trying to push us to buy a licence. Which if you ask me, is way over priced & I would never dream of paying that sort of money, just to connect to my childrens PC's every now & again. Until they stop offering this as a free service for personal use only. They should handle these resets in a timley mannor. No way should this take this long for a reset. And the fact that it keeps on going back to commercial use detected, even though I've not added any new PC's that I connect to, nor have 4 or 5 session windows open, the max has always been 3, due to having 3 children. I feel there's something fundimentally wrong with the way it detects. I don't think its accidental either. More deliberate. I've always recommended Teamviewer to friends who are looking for something to use personally. But I've stopped recommending this due to the blatent forced nature of trying to make you buy something they say should be free.

    Haha! You know their tricks now! But you still can use for almost 1 year before they forced you to buy the super pricy package from them!

    Exactly it is ridiculous.  I have a Raspberry pi on the SAME LOCAL NETWORK so it's obviously not commercial use!  It doesn't have a monitor so I have to use teamviewer. 

    I tried using the 5 minutes you get to install **Third Party Product** (alternative) and it ended after 30 seconds so they lied about that aswell.

    The only way of contacting them is that form which they don't answer, and if you leave feedback with their system you get an error.

    I can't even use the 5 minutes to install alternatives because THEY LIED it's 10 seconds!

    Its on the same local network for goodness sake, like im at work remoting into a computer right next to me!  Why can't they detect it considering local network?  Because like you say, they are forcing you to pay for it.

    I'm so annoyed about it, I just need to access it to install a better alternative!

    It's that time of the year again where teamviewer suspects commercial use for no reason.

    I filled our the form here but I didn't even recieve quotation by e-mail. Is the form working? It's been 2-3 weeks and I've never recieved a single e-mail from teamviewer support.

    Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug in the form? Shouldn't I at least recieve a quotation by mail when I submitted the form?

    Thanks for your quick answer.

    However, I still wonder: why didn't I recieve quotation by e-mail?

    When I sent the form I checked the box in order to recieve a quotation/confirmation e-mail. However, I didn't recieve any. Thus, I wasn't sure if the form worked properly and if you recieved my request. Is that a bug on the form or did I do something wrong?

    Hello AlenaC,

    Why when i called on phone, they told me to resend the form? 

    I agree with others why we don't have become a mail that tell you that teamviewer become the email.

    But the 3 or 4 weeks are definitive not a standart.

    For me its 2 months now.
