I renewed my annual subscription with iFIT. One month later, in November 2022, iFIT charged my credit card for $510.84 for an additional year of annual subscription. I did not request this nor was I notified of this charge. I just noticed it when I logged into my iFIT dashboard to inquire about a problem with my husband's account. He cannot access his account.
I reached out to iFIT but since it's past 30 days, they will not refund the money.
I believe this is the equivalent to stealing. They should not take money from me without any sort of notification or request.
I am requesting a refund of $510.84

I am rejecting this response because: What iFit says is untrue. Since I had already renewed for a year just two months earlier, I would not have renewed again for another year at full price. This charge was made without my knowledge or my wishes. Again, I am asking iFit to refund me for the $510.84 they unlawfully charged me and remove the extra one year of membership.
Sincerely,

My problem is the lack of available workouts on the Vault. I purchased the Vault complete in 2021. Per the NordicTrack website: "The library of workouts led by iFIT personal trainers is ever expanding and provides an unparalleled variety of strength training workouts. Plus, with new workouts added every day, there is always a new iFIT strength workout for you no matter your fitness level or goals." This claim is totally false. In at least the last year, there have been no new workouts added to the machine. I have seen many new workouts added on the IFIT app on my phone, but nothing has been added to the Vault. I see that the Vault machine has been discontinued and I am assuming that is why updates of new workouts have stopped. Thinking my machine just wasn't updating properly, I contacted support and after numerous emails back and forth and trying several updates, I was informed that no workouts have been added, but "we're working on getting more workouts available." I don't believe this is a true statement. More months have now passed with no updates. Why can't you make the workouts that you have added to the IFIT phone app available on the Vault?

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:iFit falsely advertised that new content would be available on the Vault. I relied upon this advertising in making my purchase decision, both for the Vault and the continued membership. iFit continues to advertise new content is regularly added even though the response to my complaint indicated that no new content is promised, EVER. I have continued paying my membership for approximately 2 years believing that new content was coming.
Since iFit will not be adding new content to the vault, iFit should at the very least allow iPhone app users to screencast content from iPhone to the vault, or allow some other means to access iFit workouts available on other devices on the vault.
Otherwise, I would be satisfied with a 50% refund of my vault purchase since I got limited use out of it and you knowingly mislead myself and others with the false advertisement.
Sincerely,
***** *******

Hi *****,
In regards to our advertisement, we do release new content on a regular basis. We just released a new series of Australia with Tommy R***. In regards to a refund, you are outside of your refund policy and can't honor any kind of refund. We can honor a 6 month extension on the membership but that is all we can do at this time.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:You claim your advertising is not false because you recently added a "new series of Australia with Tommy R***." I checked and of course, that isn't for the Vault. It's made for bikes, elliptical and treadmill, NOT the vault. You have in the past, and currently still area, advertising on your website that content for the vault is being updated, but it is not and hasn't been for at least a year, possibly for the entire time I've owned my vault.
Therefore, I am again asking you to come up with a way to screen cast or stream new strength training content that your company has available on other machines onto my Vault, or give me a 50% refund on my vault because you stopped adding content shortly after I purchased it, possibly before I purchased it. I bought the vault based on your company's assertion that new content would be continually updated, but that's just not true.
Please provide dates and titles of any new content added to the Vault in the past two years.
Sincerely,

Hi *****,
We apologize for the frustration you have experienced, After reaching out to our software mangament they have confirmed that we just released a new vault workout last month called "Power Hit and Strength Series" by Charles R***.

I purchased a proform elliptical runner model ***********. After a year of having the machine it began squealing. I filed complaints with their warranty company and had them come work on it which never fixed the problem. Today the frame broke on the ramp which was the part that was squealing. I called and they refuse to cover the machine under their 10 year warranty. They claim the condition of the machine because there is rust. I reported that to their technicians when they were in my home and was told not to worry about it.

I have an older treadmill that I purchased because of promises made by the company. Supposedly the hardware is no longer supported which would be okay but the existing software is also gone. Plenty of companies no longer support something older but they still keep existing functionality intact. Now the problem is even worse as I am unable to access my statistics, library, scheduling, programs, etc. for the piece of machinery I have that is still supported as their website and its functionality was completely removed with zero notification.

I am rejecting this response because: There is no cost or effort to Ifit to keep the current functionality. My equipment WILL NOT work without the Ifit programming thus leaving me with equipment that has failed as a direct cause by Ifit. This "update" is just a money grab by the company. No way will I EVER purchase another Ifit machine because of this.

I purchased elliptical around Jan-2021. Within 10 months it started making noise. After long conversations, they agreed to send replacement parts which were broken.
Once I received the part, I had to get technician to replace the part.
Same thing is now repeating every 6 to 8 months.
I have contacted them on following dates so far.
12/25/2021
7/8/2022
4/5/2023
I even had to call technician to diagnose the problem.
Every visit, I have to pay $150 per visit.
I am looking for them to pay back the price what I paid and all installation charges/ technician visit.

Purchased a NordicTrack x22i Incline treadmill from Dick's Sporting Goods on 5/10/22.
Model / SKU: NTL29222 . 02
Serial Number: ************* Once the treadmill was set up a few days later the incline did not work at all. After multiple parts sent and 4 technician visits and multiple months until it was finally fixed.
Shortly after the fan stopped working which has yet to be fixed.
The current issue is a safety issue. The belt will randomly stop working while running on the treadmill. Per the request of iFit I have sent multiple videos of this happening (they keep encouraging me to use an unsafe product). They look at the video, say they don't know what is wrong and send a replacement part seemingly at random. It has now been over 6 parts and technicians visits and the problem persists and now the incline doesn't work and it takes multiple attempts to connect to the internet after they recently replaced the console.
I have spent countless hours talking to their support online or on the phone with the same response. Multiple hours taking time off work for technician visits where the technician doesn't know what is going on. The refuse to refund the treadmill as it was purchased through an authorize distributer and not directly through them. They also refuse to replace the treadmill even though they do not know how to fix it.
To me this is an unacceptable response and the fact they don't seem to care they have an unsafe product is absurd.

I am rejecting this response because: this machine is broken. There have been 12+ visits by technicians over the last year and it has never fully worked the entire time. The technician was out again today (his 7th trip here for this problem) and he recommends replacement. I will wait for his notes to be sent to you. I am very disappointed with this company and refusal to acknowledge a faulty machine. I have now probably spent over 100 hours dealing with this problem and a non-functioning treadmill.

I purchased a commercial **** Nordic Track treadmill model NTL14122 serial numer ************* for $2397.28 including tax on Jan. 18, 2023. The treadmill console did not work and motor would not turn the belt after recieving it. After several months of emailing and trouble shooting with customer service, a technician was finally sent to my home to address the problems. Technician came out in June and diagnosed the issue as being a bad lower motor control unit and bad console. Parts were ordered and replaced several weeks later. The replacement console was bad and did not work properly. The treadmill was serviced, belt adjusted, and console was replaced a third time. One week later, the treadmill continued to have the original problems with belt stopping abruptly and not turning in the middle of workouts. Technician came out a 4th time and stated treadmill was not repairable and needed to be replaced. He recommended this replacement but Nordic Track refuses to replace the treadmill.and are trying to force me to purchase an extended service plan for $299.99 to replace faulty parts that are under the original warranty. This treadmill has not operated how it has been marketed or designed by the manufacturer since delivery. I have not been able to utilize it properly since purchase. I am respectfully requesting your assistance in obtaining a new replacement as recommended by the technician or a full refund of my money.

On 08/12/203 I purchased a treadmill online and paid an additional 199 for delivery and in home set up.

I purchased a treadmill from iFit/NordicTrack 9 -10 months ago. The treadmill has not worked correctly since I've owned it. The warranty department has had 9 months to fix this treadmill and has not been able to. I would like a refund and to return the treadmill. I have almost injured myself several times as the belt stops abruptly during runs yet the customer service team has decided this isn't a problem that they need to actually address.
They state that I didn't have a documented issue in the first 30 days so they wont refund. My problem started within weeks of delivery, but since the problem only happens at higher speeds, I didn't see there was an issue right away.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:As was explained to your customer service representative, the problem occurs during extended or faster workouts and that was not something I did in the first 30 days as I started to use the new equipment. The first time I experienced the problem, I attempted to address it myself by relubricating the belt, thinking that it may be an overheating issue due to too much friction on the deck. Since I don't do sprint workouts very often, I did not know it was a reoccurring issue until November or December.
It feels as though I'm being punished for not immediately putting the treadmill through its paces to ensure that you build a quality product rather than trusting that it would work as advertised past 30 days. Your policy seems intended to address people who are not satisfied with the product versus being delivered at effective unit. I simply want a treadmill that works and after 8 months of trying to fix it, it appears this is not one that will.
I understand that you have policies to protect against people taking advantage, but at some point you need to look at the circumstance for what it is and make an individual decision. I don't believe it's that difficult to understand that when the problem only occurs during specific workouts, it may not be found in the first 30 days. In fact, it was during one of your iFit video trainings in which I first found this problem.
I am risking injury by using this treadmill. the belt at times abruptly stops, sending me forward into the display. I have very little trust in this product, since after multiple attempts to fix it the problem persists.
I do have technician scheduled but that was done because your returns department refused to even consider the fact that I may have a defective product and it should be considered for a return.
I would appreciate any help resolving this issue that doesn't involve simply throwing more parts at the treadmill and crossing your fingers. This treadmill was to be the first purchase in what was me building out my home gym and this experience is making me question considering any products affiliated with iFit going forward. Accepting a defective product back would go a long way to building trust.
Sincerely,
