I purchased my NordicTrack treadmill in April of 2020 and recently on December 12th during my evening workout my treadmill would not work. It wont go past the white ifit screen. I tried all the methods to reset it and factory reset it without anything working. I called this morning on December 13th to hopefully solve the problem but customer service was no help. The machine itself is outside of the warranty however after doing research this isnt an isolated incident. This was a software update done by ifit pushed through to machines that caused them to not work anymore. The company wants customers to pay $500+ for a new console when the issue is their fault. Its not normal wear and tear, this was caused by the company alone. I paid over $1K for a treadmill thats worked beautifully for years until they decided to do a software update that caused the machine to not be useable. This isnt right and a lawsuit is in their near future.

On January 2, 2023, I purchased ProForm treadmill from a retailer. After assembling, the treadmill did not work so I called customer support on January 3. During this phone call, which amounted to 4 hours ******************************************************* to another department - which NEVER answered. I called again the following day (Jan. 4), this time a part was ordered. As of today (1/13), the part is still "in process." I have attempted to contact through online requests and chats, and I have received absolutely zero responses. The first online ticket was January 3, followed by January 10, and January 11. According to website, shipping from the warehouse will take 3-5 business days, and we are well past that shipping window. I attempted to call today at 5:00 PM CST and received stating it was closed and hours are 6 AM to 6PM mountain time Monday through Friday. At 5:00 PM central time, it is 4:00 PM mountain time.Is this business going to ship the part as stated in a timely manner from today's date since it has not occurred as of yet?

I am rejecting this response because: This is not an adequate response because it still not address the fact that NONE of the online requests (emails, chats, etc.) were ever responded to. After contemplation of this response and the lack of communication directly with this company, I have returned the treadmill to the retailer. I will be looking for a new treadmill and making sure that it has no connection to iconfitness or iFit in any way.The BBB may close this case. Thank you to the BBB for taking time to help deal with this situation.

I have a NordicTrack T8.5 s in which I use regularly and consistency along with my ifit subscription. My treadmill was working just fine until 1/10/23 when the console became stuck. I have made numerous emails to ifit- no response, or I was asked to pay a fee to talk to someone, or my biggest frustration was ifit put me on hold for over 2 hours and never came to the call. They have not returned any calls I made or emails- they have made no effort to respond. There is a problem and after researching on ******* how to resolve this problem this seems to be a big problem for a lot of owners and I'm starting to feel that ifit has no solution so they just don't respond. A tech told me a new console would cost $448 and none were available at the warehouse---- Now what am I suppose to do- this treadmill is only 3 years old. My last NordicTrack lasted 9 years which is why I invested in a new one when it was time ----- this did not last me 9 years :(

On Dec 9th, 2022 I attempted to ride my PROFORM SMARTPOWER 10 Studio Bike. After initializing the bike, a prompt appeared on the console asking if I wanted to update the software. I selected YES and the console showed buffering for several minutes and then the screen went blank/dark. I waited about 15 minutes, and conducted a power off reset. The bike has never powered back up. I called IFIT and spoke with an agent, who informed me that I would need to speak with maintenance. I called the maintenance number, spoke with **, who seemed quite knowledgeable. He set up a replacement order for a console and power adapter. Order # ICS *******. I have never received a confirmation email on this order. I did eventually receive the power adapter but not the console. I have subsequently made numerous return calls and feel I have been given the run around. On Dec 30th, I received an email from ICON requesting information with notification (ref:_00Dj0JnBt._5003a1JJtko:ref) "to better assist me." I initially missed the email as I was looking for correspondence from either IFIT or UTS. I found the email on Jan 6th and replied providing 2 photos of the serial number and the model number. I did not receive a response and sent a follow up email on Jan 11th requesting a call back from a customer support manager. I have not received a response email or a call back. Additionally, I called back in on the 10th and spoke with ** who inform me that I had to call the mfr at a different number. He provided the number but informed me that they were closed and that I would have to call on the 11th. I did and it was the same number that I had been calling for a month. After several calls and being dumped I called back to IFIT, spoke with ** who said she would transfer me to the maintenance group and placed me on hold. After 25 minutes, I hung up. To date, Jan 13th, I have yet to receive a call or an email. This is poor service and unacceptable. SVC Contract ********

****,
First and foremost, I am so sorry for the delays in receiving the Console portion of the order. I understand this is extremely frustrating, and we greatly appreciate your continued patience.
I went ahead and took a look at your account and order in hopes to get some answers for you. As expected because we are facing an overload of Console orders, the Console we are needing to get sent out to *********** ordered. Because your order is over a month out, I submitted what we call a Build and Ship to hopefully expedite this process some. This essentially puts you at the top of every list, so that when we do receive the shipment of the new Consoles yours will be amongst the first to ship out. Although this is going to quicken the process, please still understand we are most likely a few weeks out as the replacements are not yet received at our warehouse.
I hope this clears some things up, and give a better idea of what is to be expected moving forward. Again, thank you for your ongoing patience.

I own a NordicTrack T7.5S Treadmill that worked perfectly until IFIT sent a software upgrade in late December that corrupted thousands of machines, rendering the console inoperable. The treadmill is now completely unusable due to the software update that the company pushed out. After the companys faulty software push, the console only displayed Supported API 3, and would not move on from that message. Now the console appears completely dead. I did not break this machine. The treadmill would be perfectly fine had it not been for the actions of the company in pushing out a faulty update. A company should not be able to profit by proactively breaking the product, and charging their customer to fix it. They need to replace the console or the entire treadmill. The company is at fault.

I have had a Proform Smart Pro **** since February 2019. I have paid for an extended warranty. I use the treadmill several times a week. Late November 2022 the console screen was stuck on the IFIT screen and even with a factory reset and help from IFIT support it would not work. I called and reported the issue on 12/5/22. At that time I was on hold for over an hour, but was told that a new console would be shipped. On 12/27/22 I called to check on the part as I had not heard anything. This time I waited over 2 hours and spoke with a representative, ***************** confirmed the order and told me the part was shipping that week and would be delivered the following Tuesday (1/3/23). She emailed me a screen shot of her computer screen. The part did not arrive. I called again on 1/6/23. Waited over 2 hours and spoke with a representative, ******************** said he could see that there were consoles waiting to be shipped but was not sure when that would happen. He gave me his email and said to contact him and he would continue to check. I asked to speak to a supervisor because I could not keep waiting on hold for hours to get no information or resolution. He was nice and stayed he tried to get a supervisor on the phone but the didnt take calls. I emailed 1/9/23 and asked for an update which he responded there was no update. I emailed 1/11/23 but have not heard back. I called again tonight (1/12/23). I called the same number I have been calling, waited 2.5 hours and spoke to ****. **** said I called the wrong number and he could not access the account. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, I was told that the supervisor did not take calls. He said I needed to call the warrantee number. I asked for a direct line but he did not have one and did not try to get me any information. I cant wait another 2 hours on hold and want a working treadmill.

I bought a Nordic Track Commercial **** elliptical, model #NTEL71420.5. Serial # ************* on **/**/**. Order #NT11297375. Delivery date was 1/11/23. I paid $199 for "white glove in-home delivery & assembly." The wheel wasn't assembled correctly and can't be used because it rubs and makes a scraping sound. Also, there are 2 broken parts. The tech knew and took pictures of the broken areas, but told me that I had to call customer service for help.I called the customer service number *************) about an hour after the technicians left to tell them about the problems. My daughter tried out the elliptical during that time period. That's how we figured out the wheel issue. I was on hold for over an hour and couldn't get through.Today, 1/12/23, I waited on hold for over 1 hour 45 minutes until "*************************" picked up. She made it very difficult to try to get help. She told me there would be extra fees over $150 to send someone out, and that I had to troubleshoot with her to try and fix it myself. I am not a handyman, that's why I paid extra for the assembly. I received bad assembly. The techs didn't put the wheel on correctly. After a very long and frustrating time on the phone with her, I said that I just wanted to return the machine. They have a 30 day return policy that starts on delivery date. She said she would connect me to that ***** She did not! ***** gave me the number of a customer instead of the return department. I ended up speaking with the fellow customer named ***** who has also filed a complaint with you, the BBB, about her Nordic Track!I emailed ***** ****************************************** to tell her she gave me the phone number of a fellow customer and asked for a correct number for the returns **** twice. How am I supposed to return this broken elliptical and get my money back?
