I have been trying for several days to reset my fitbit password. I keep getting a link that asks for my email address but I never get the email to reset my password. I been on the phone with customer support 3 times today and still no HELP!. Fitbit customer support is useless. I wish I had know this before I purchased their product!
My Versa Lite was working just fine until I installed the update. Since then I can't correct the time. I've googled and tried all of the suggestions. Called and talked to Fitbit twice. Apparently, my time issue can't be fixed. I've had my device almost two years. I believe that there should be a fix to my problem and I'm upset the update caused my issue. Not sure I want another fitbit because of the update caused the problem.
After many failed attempts to register my Fitbit Ionic for a refund, I resorted to online chats, then to telephone calls but no one seems to care about dealing with this situation. I paid a lot of money for my watch, which I am now not supposed to wear for the purpose that it was designed for. Apparently, there have been cases of Fitbit Ionic batteries over heating, to the extent that they have caused skin damage to many users. Why aren't Fitbit actively seeking to assist Fitbit Ionic users to minimise such occurrences, when they are aware of the dangers to users? Trading standards are now involved, I hope they instruct ALL Fitbit devices to be recalled due to possible adverse health effects. Clearly they value profits ahead of people.
Received this as a gift for Christmas and as of Jan 15th I still cannot figure out how to synch on my computer. I had the weight watchers activity tracker for years and it was so simple. Download the site as per instructions set up on the tracker, log in and your done. Simple, straight forward., a pc illiterate person could do it. As for the website impossible to understand, printng is so light cannot be read. This gift needs to be returned. Bit of advice get anything but the fitbit.
Why is there only one Fitbit product that vibrates so you can feel it!? The Charge HR vibrates for phone calls and silent alarms. You can feel it! The new Charge 2 is worthless for notifications! Also, customer service for this company is perfectly dreadful.
I would NOT recommend this watch to anyone. It has sync problems all the time, spent hours and a lot of time on the internet only to find out Fitbit knows about the problem and it still has not fixed it. Other than that it is an OK watch but after a week it does not keep the data because it can not sync so for health tracking I give it an "F".
My husband and I got each other two Fitbit Versa 2 watches. After one year my watch wouldn't take a charge. One of the 4 little contact connectors had fallen out. The second one became really hot while on the charging cable. When I picked the watch up to take it off the charger, it burned my hand and I dropped it on the floor. I pulled the cord and carefully picked it up with a thick cloth. The back of the watch was puffed out and melted around the contact connectors. The charging cable was melted and disfigured around the connectors!
I'm sure the watch would have exploded if I had not unplugged it! I will include pictures.
I'm on my 2nd Zip in less than 2 months. The device will not hold a charge and I've spent at least $40 in replacement batteries as it depletes them every 3-5 days. I've talked to Customer Service twice and the first time they sent me a new device. When the new device began acting up within 2 days, I researched the issue and discovered that Zip's not holding a charge is a known problem. When I called today I expected that Fitbit would offer me another comparable device or at least offer to reimburse me for the batteries. They did neither, even though they admitted their engineers are aware of the issue. I'm done with Fitbit - I'm going to look for another tracking device with less problems.

I received a defective fitbit. I contacted customer service. After speaking with 3 different customer service people a solution was not reachable. I asked for a corporate number and was told that number is not published. Fitbit has poor quality merchandise and the worst customer service you can get.
Hi Alice,
Apologies for the experience you had with our Support Team. Please let us take a second look at your case and review available options for you. You can respond to this comment with your support case number and we'll further assist you from there.
We'll be waiting for your reply.
Sincerely,

Fitbit responded asking for a response and a tracking number since I can't seem to write a regular response I am updating. The horrible "Support Person" ended the conversation without giving me a case number.

I bought a Fit Bit Versa on the first day available. It only worked for a month. Fit Bit insisted it was a charger problem and sent me a new on. They refused to expedite sending the Charger so it took 3 weeks to get here. That didn't fix the problem they wanted it sent back but won't pay for it to be expedited back and won't send the new one till receiving the old one and again say they won't expedite that shipping. So overall I am going to be without a product I paid $200 for for over 3 months due to their refusal to pay a few bucks more for expedited shipping on what they admit is a defective product.
When I pointed that out the representative told me that was all they would do and ended the chat with me abruptly. I don't recommend trying to work with the warranty people there buy secondary product replacement and use that.
