      There is, I believe, must be an unlawful practice by iFIT membership where the user is required to provide credit card information in order to access promotional membership periods when purchasing new equipment. However, a recurring payment is applied to the credit card without the my consent. Without my knowledge, my credit card was charged a yearly subscription in January 2022. I have not used this yearly subscription. I've contacted support which refused to refund me any payment. Once I removed my credit card information my iFIT membership is deactivated, which means I can not use my membership even though I've already paid for it. It seems that iFIT requires users to provide the credit card information and automatically applies recurring payments without any user agreement.I'm asking ********************** to refund my payment and implement a subscription deactivation option when memberships are purchased so that users can have the option to agree to recurrent payments if they want it.

      In looking into your account, we can see you have been in contact with our member services team via email. They were able to order the necessary part for you. In checking on that part order, it looks like your belt arrived to your home on October 21st. 
      They were also able to set up a service order for you a few days ago. That service order number is SO-*******. The technician will be contacting you in a few business days to schedule your appointment. 
      Were happy to add the down time to your warranty and membership (if you have one) once your machine is back up and running. Let us know and we will add the time back onto your machine's warranty for the time that it has been down for repairs. 
      Once your service appointment has been completed, if you have any further issues with the machine, please reach out to our ****** Services at 1-833-680-iFit (****) with any questions.

      We purchased an Icon Fitness (recently acquired by iFit) rower, model RW900, NTRW19147.2 in December of 2021. After using for a few times into the first quarter of 2022, we reached out to Icon Fitness with the concern that the computer adjustable resistance levels was not working (always very difficult). After exchanging many emails and photographs, a repairman, FitRick, was sent on Icon Fitness' behalf on June 9 to assess the situation. ******* returned again on July 5 to replace a part, and while here he noted that a part was welded on incorrectly and he thought it could not be repaired unless this was resolved. The part replacement did not resolve the issue. We exchanged several emails again with Icon Fitness' customer service, several of which were very frustrating as they kept saying they didn't have FitRick's notes, videos, and photos (however we know they did, per FitRick's comments, and also Icon Fitness' requirement that all service call information must be uploaded within 24 hours of the repairman's visit - or they will no longer work for Icon Fitness - and as FitRick has been here now a third time, we know he is still contracting on behalf of Icon Fitness). For the third visit, ******* took measurements and again uploaded information to Icon Fitness (he also indicated he had already taken these exact measurements, videos, and photos on his prior visits and had already uploaded them). So, Icon Fitness now has a second set of the details from FitRick. Most recently, Oct. 24, we received a response that an Icon Fitness engineer was looking into our case, however four days later, Icon Fitness said they still needed the repairman's notes, etc. Not sure whether the 24th or 28th response was the most recent lie, however clearly they are not progressing on addressing our machine's issue. We would like help to get them going, or refund our original purchase cost. (FYI that we can forward many emails to document these claims.)

      Hello-
      We are so sorry about the inconveniences and the frustrations that you have experienced with the machine and machine issues. We completely understand where you are coming from on this matter.
      With the information you provided, we confirmed that the machine is no longer eligible for a return or replacement due to you being outside of the 30 day return policy. Where we didn't hear from you within the first 30 days of having the machine, you are no longer eligible. 

      The return policy states: If you are not satisfied with the purchase of your new equipment, you can request a return within 30 days of your delivery date. Due to the size and weight of our products, ProForm doesnt offer a refund for any shipping or delivery charges you may have paid to receive your product. Returns will include a return shipping charge of $250. Returning your product may incur additional charges for ordinary wear and tear or damage caused by improper use, incorrect assembly, or accidents.
      If you wish to read more about the return policy, you can do so at https://www.proform.com/privacy#return


      We are currently working with the technician to see what needs to be done to help resolve the issue for you. We are currently waiting on his tech notes,once we receive them we will adivse with our service coordinator to see what the next steps will be.

      Complaint: 18332079

      I am rejecting this response because:  while I understand and accept that the company's initial return policy is not in effect, the fact remains that the rower does not properly operate, and this has been confirmed by the company's selected repairman, FitRick.  ******* also indicated in his initial repair visits that the machine "could not be repaired".  The machine is covered by its original parts and service warranty, and I also extended the warranty for quite a few years.

      What really frustrates me about the business' response is their oft-repeated lie that they are "waiting for the repairman's notes and information".  The repairmen hired by this company are contractually obligated to upload their notes and information within 24 hours of their visit, and FitRick has not only done this, but has also told us he has done so.  The company falling back to this lie is quite frustrating, as we know they have the notes and information from all three of the repair visits.  When are they going to finally admit that the machine we received either cannot be repaired, and provide an appropriate resolution, or send someone here to conduct a major repair?

Please note this is only an "at this time" acceptance, as they have not yet repaired the machine to functionality.  We are willing to let the repair occur to see if it can be made fully functional.

      Purchased a Nordic track fitness machine and was unknowingly enrolled in the ifit monthly program. Ifit did not provide any billing information or opt out information and used the credit card from when it was entered during the buying process for the Nordic track machine. The customer service department can only provide refunds within 14 days and does not have higher managers available to discuss refunds outside that time frame. *************************** hung up twice when I asked for a manager. According to the customer service agents the company does not have a fraud department or a corporate structure in place to be able to assist any further than what is in their company policy.

      We have sent this information over to our iFit software team for you and had them further review your account. 
      They have confirmed that with our terms of use, we are not able to offer any additional refund. As you did purchase the machine which activates the membership, the activation starts the subscription which is why you were getting charged. We did refund the recent charge and then also a courtesy refund of 1 more month, so 2 total. That is all we can refund at this time. You are welcome to review our policy further at the links below if you'd like.

      I purchase a membership subscription with iFitness. I purchased that membership on 03/20/22 and for a 3 year duration. Circumstances have changed and I sold my home. As a result, there is not enough room in my apartment for the equipment so I no longer have it. I cancelled my membership and requested a prorate back for time unused. It still has over 2 years remaining. They stated that they won't and don't prorate and I'm out of luck. The total cost was $336 for 3 years. They have no formal process to discuss a dispute so I am starting here before contacting my state and/or embarking on an online campaign to educate others about their policies that I believe are unfair and unreasonable. I am requesting a partial refund for the unused amount as of 10/28/22. Can you assist?

      Hello-
      We are so sorry about the inconveniences and the frustrations that you have experienced thus far regarding your membership. We completely understand where you are coming from on this matter. 
      In looking into your iFIT account this morning, it looks like the charge for the renewal was in March 2022. As we did not hear from you within 30 days of this charge, we are unable to offer a refund.

      Complaint: ********



      You sell bad products that break down several times and have poor policies regarding prorating of early cancellations of membership. I purchased the website badnordictrack.net and started building the website with the purpose of educating all people about my experiences with repeated repairs on 2 pieces of equipment you sold me. Once I get the site up and established for searches, I will send you a copy so that your legal department can view it and send their cease and desist request. After that I will continue to keep the website up since there is nothing you can do about it until I am satisfied that I was able to persuade enough of your potential customers NOT to become a victim based on the true, factual information that I will provide them. I might even create a blog to allow some of your customers to post their own experiences with mine. Furthermore, I will not take a dime from one advertisement or use the website for personal financial gain. Only to protect others like me who are victims of hours and hours of lost personal time dealing with talking to your service department troubleshooting defective equipment that takes months to fix from repeated calls on issues that don't get resolved. Months and Months that I did not have working equipment! Even the new treadmill I received from you was physically broken and took months for you to resolve! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

      I highly recommend that you protect yourself and send the response to your legal department since they will ask questions as to why they were NOT notified once the website gets started...

      This is what happens when you have unreasonable policies that cost average people like me a couple of hundred dollars. In turn, it will cost you thousands of dollars of lost business. If this is how it needs to be then so be it.

      Stay tuned!,**** **********

      My name is **** ** ***** ***** and I have attached some pictures of other customers who had similar problems and how it was made right. First, I just want this situation to be made right at the lowest level. That is what I was taught in the Army, to try and fix a problem at the lowest level. I purchased this bike 6/5/21, so I have had it for a little more than a year and to have the problems I have had with it already is sad, but I understand mistakes happen and was just happy I had the warranty to fix those problems. I have had to have a service technician come out to my home three times to fix problems on the bike and the very first time he came he saw that some of the frame had rust on it. He advised me on to use a metal brush to get as much rust off, then coat it with WD40 or Vaseline to keep the rust from coming back. He also advised me that it was a very common problem with these types of bikes. Each time this gentleman came to service my bike, or I called into IFIT support it was in my garage, because that is where I used my limited equipment to service the bike. It was also there, because I did not want a stranger coming into my home as I'm sure you wouldn’t either to get my broken bike serviced. Other than those times my bike was stored inside my home that is temperature regulated and I always cleaned it after each use. So, to get insulted in an email that I have forwarded here is upsetting and I feel like it was challenging my intelligence. I read the manual and know I must keep my bike in a temperature regulated room which I did in my home when it was working properly, I wiped it down after every workout. I spent over 2,000 dollars on a bike and over 350 dollars on extended warranty, you bet I am going to take care of my machine. I have also come to know that it is a problem from following different Facebook groups and seeing other upset customers.

      I am rejecting this response because: So, you are telling me because I used my workout bike to workout and I sweat, my warranty is voided ? I just want to make it perfectly clear. Once again we acknowledge the technician, but not the fact that he did not install the parts that were sent to me ? 



      Sincerely,

      Hello,

      Thank you for reaching back out. 

      As we stated, unfortunately we are unable to reinstate the warranty due to the fact that the sweat has corroded the wires and motor and everything in there. 

      The machine was not cleaned properly from the sweat which then caused the rust. 

      The warranty was voided and will not be reinstated. 

      We apologize for the inconvenience. 

      Thank you.
