      ref***********************E:ref Very slight, minimal noise issue with my bike for which I paid peloton technician team to come in and replace the bottom bracket. The technician team left my bike in MUCH worse condition, with a bunch of issues after they're visit. They did not fix the original problem and now my bike sounds much worse then it did prior, there is rubbing on the bike and debris coming off the bike now. I had been reaching out to peloton for the last 4 months now, and they have still not resolved the issue that their own hired team has caused. I have had technicians in on 5 occasions now with the most recent technician team advising me that my bike had not been assembled properly from prior teams and that I need a whole frame replacement now due to the damage it has caused. I have been trying to speak to a peloton supervisor for weeks, Ive been told I'd be getting a call to discuss my concerns but have not heard from anyone. I was advised from a service representative that they are going to "review my request for a frame replacement" which I was told would be ***** hours and now has been over a week. I was advised that if my request was not accepted, I will be expected to pay $1,100 for a frame replacement FROM THE DAMAGE THEIR OWN TECHNICIANS CAUSED.I am extremely dissatisfied with the service over the past few months and would expect a new bike/frame replacement as the issues arising and the damage caused to the bike was not from me but from their "hired and experienced technicians" who are clearly not experienced.

      I have requested to be removed from Pelotons mailing list 6 times. I have contacted them via phone and email on the following dates: 9/19/22, 9/22/22, 9/27/22, 10/1/22, 11/18/22, and 9/26/23. The reference #s I was provided for the above communications were: ********, ********, ********, ********, and ********. Some of the individuals I spoke to were: *******, *****, ******, and ******. Each time they advise me that I will be removed from their mailing list, but that is not the case. I most recently received a flyer in my mailbox yesterday (9/26/23). I do not want to receive these anymore. I am requesting to be permanently removed from Pelotons mailing list. This has been going on for years and is unacceptable.

      I own 2 Peloton bikes and both were included in the recall for seat posts. I ordered on replacement May 15, 2022 and got a replacement in July. I ordered my second seat post June 15th with an expected ship date by Aug. 6th. This order was cancelled by their shipping department because, as I was told by the Peloton customer support rep " we assumed the customer ordered twice." I have called support 3 times. 1st time, late August, I was told the part would ship in September. In late Sept., I was told the order was cancelled and a new order was made. That order had a mistake so I called back the following day and was told it might take 6 weeks. There is no way together to a supervisor and there is no way to expedite my "new" order. I m back at the end of the line even through I did the right thing(s) and ordered over 3 months ago.The entire experience is frustrating and there is nothing I can do to resolve this.

      We apologize for any inconvenience surrounding the shipment of the seat post. At the moment we are unable to commit to delivering your replacement seat post any earlier. Please know our team is working hard to fulfill all orders and working closely with our supply chain partners to increase production of seat posts in order to meet demand as quickly as possible.

      I purchased my treadmill several months ago and have been using the web browser to respond to emails, watch you tube, etc. daily. During a recent software update this month they have completely removed this functionality. I contacted customer service to ask that it be restored and was informed that this is not possible. If I have paid $4000 for this treadmill I **** well better believe that if I want to use this functionality that I can. The peloton screen is nothing more than an Android tablet, this is not complicated. Restore this functionality or include an app to access it. This is ridiculous and another ploy to get me to spent the $45 monthly subscription for access to it. I demand that this functionality be restored ASAP! If it is not restored I will be sharing this terrible experience on every social media platform, review platform, etc. It is infuriating that I cannot use an extremely basic and rudimentary function such as this. Unacceptable !

       This response is pretty infuriating as it is a non-answer cut / paste template and more of the same from Peloton. If I'm paying thousands of dollars for a product I expect solutions not "we'll take this into consideration for the future.". You had a feature and took it away without a replacement.  What is your solution?

      I have called Peloton to fix my Treadmill and sent videos of the issue with no response here is the Ref# : #******** This has been going on for over 3 months - The official warranty will run out in November 2023 This is the older units that have a recall??

      Business Response

      Date: 10/10/2023

      We are very sorry to hear about the inconvenience that has been caused surrounding the service of your Tread+. Since the Tread+ is under an active recall, we are not able to proceed with a full unit swap. Additionally, we do require a service technician be sent out to check the power before replacing parts. Please reach out to our member support team for further support at **************.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

      Peloton has sent a technician to service this unit along with parts - this was unsuccessful. The initial diagnostics were done over the phone but when this technician arrived he was able to understand the issue better.  The technician determined additional parts were needed.  We never herd another word from peloton and i made a new service call and never heard back to when service would be scheduled.  I even loaded a video. Of the issue.  

       I think peloton is waiting for the warranty to run out and claim no responsibility for a inferior and unsafe product.

      I ordered a brand new bike+ that was delivered on 9/12/23. After using it twice, I noticed that both the seat slider and adjustment k*** are broken and the seat slides around whenever I take a ride. Yeah. Brand new bike right? I reached out to customer service and they sent replacement parts and told me I would receive an email to schedule a technician shortly after the order was placed. I never received the email and my parts were delivered on 9/21. I reached out to customer service the same day to ask about the technician and they me to wait a while while it processes as delivered and then itll show up. I waited a day and it didnt show up, so I reached back out to customer service and they told me theyd escalate it and id receive an email in 24 hours. I didnt receive an email. I called customer service and they told me that I wouldnt receive the email until 9/29 just to SCHEDULE the technician. Why does it take 10 days to receive a link? This has now turned into almost a full month of having a useless bike. I do not doubt that they delivered a refurbished bike instead of the brand new one I paid for. They tried to make up for it by waiving my subscription for 2 months, but that does not compensate for the cost difference between a new bike vs a refurbished plus the amount of time its taken them to fix the bike. Its disappointing because I really enjoy the peloton classes, but I am beyond frustrated with the situation and the company. I expected way better

      On Wednesday 9/20/2023 I called because my bike suddenly broke mid class. The peddles would not go further. I restarted the bike, unplugged and plugged back in - still no success. I purchased my bike in Feb of 2022. So fairly new. The representative answered my call and put in a work order for someone from flagship management and quickly charged me $168.54. I was told the repair company would be in contact with me within 48 hours. On Friday 09/22/2023 I called because I have not heard from anyone. The young lady told me she had no status but told me I could reach out to the repair company myself and emailed me their phone number and web address. I paid over $1,000 for this bike and I pay top dollar for the monthly subscription for the classes, the customer service is horrible. every single time. I had to open a BBB complaint to get my bike and now I am opening one again to get it fixed. I am being charged still monthly for my subscription but my bike is not usable. I want to be refunded for my service fee as I've spend so much time on the phone, opening up a BBB complaint and the high service fee just isn't worth it.My order number for the service fee is *********

      I bought the Peloton Bike + on 1/31/2021 (order number 91ED-1652) and it was installed in 3/3/2021. On May 2023 it stopped working. It wont turned on at all. After troubleshooting with their tech support, usb sent to be changed and a tech that was sent home, nothing could be done and they say I have to change the frame and want to charge me $1,500 for a new frame. This is not acceptable. I two year old bike, which had extended warranty, but the warranty had expire two months before. I want the bike replaced at no cost. This is very expensive equipment, for it to only last 2 years.

      I am being a loyal customer of ******************** over 3 years. I own both Peloton Tread and Peloton Bike. After a Peloton issued upgrade of Peloton Tread my tablet doesn't reboot properly and screen throws an error and keeps looping in. I contacted Peloton **************** multiple times and once a **************** rep was able to help me reboot my tablet after being on the phone few hours. You just have to keep trying buttons combination on the monitor for hours and hope that it will work one time. And it did work once! The reboot issue started happening again and i tried to follow the same troubleshooting steps and they didn't work this time. I contacted Peloton multiple times, and i was told my only option is to purchase a new tablet from them which costs $600. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my current tablet, it is just a software issue after their own upgrade to the system. I feel it is absolutely not fair for me to pay $600 to Peloton because my system got messed up after Peloton issued upgrade. Peloton has no software reinstall help , only physical replacement of the tablet for $600. t's absolutely not fair that a customer has physically replace perfectly fine Peloton tablet after Peloton issued upgrade. My system doesn't load anymore and i cannot use my Peloton tread (please see the image attached). This screen keeps looping in over and over again

      I have contacted Peloton 3 times in regards to my broken bike accessory that was recalled. I received an email with tracking information on August 16th stating that the replacement had shipped. It has not. I received an email today saying "sorry, we can't ship it any sooner." I have not been able to use my bike for MONTHS because of the recalled faulty part. I need my Peloton bike to be useable. If Peloton isn't going to send me the replacement part so my current bike will work, you can send me an entirely new bike. I was nice when I contacted Peloton initially after the bike broke while using it and didn't pursue anything else considering my injuries - but if the part isn't going to be sent so I can continue my workouts and not have to pay to workout elsewhere, I will seek other measures to recoup my costs.
