I purchased a treadmill from ifit several years ago along with a warranty. about four months ago the console locked up. I got online and found that hundreds of ifit customers were experiencing the same issue. I also learn the problem was invoked by ifit that sent out a update which damaged the consoles. literally after dozens of phone calls and chats was i finally able to have some one help. first they said they would order me a new console. one has been on order in the tacking system for months with no movement. I was told one was going to be shipped out to me mid March. March came and went so again after countless attempts contacting ifit they said they would send me a new tablet, not the console. weeks later the tablet arrived then a tec came out and told me the unit needs a new safety key housing and a new console. so of course he could not repair the machine. he told me that he would send the notes over the next morning to get those parts ordered and I should receive conformation. I never received conformation. I called ifit myself they informed me that the repairmen never sent in the notes. so now I am back to square one. My machine that I paid a lot of money for has been down for five months! For a consumer to have to go through so much stress and headache to have something fixed that they purchased with a warranty is just unbelievable. I have waited long enough and been put through the ringer with this situation. I want the new parts expedited over night ASAP. both a new console and the safety key housing. this was caused by the company send out a bad malware update and I have been stressed out trying to get this resolved. I don't want apologies, I want what is right to be done ASAP.Business Response

I purchased a NordicTrack Commercial **** and an extended warranty. I paid $2700 for the treadmill and $229 for the extended warranty. The treadmill continues to spontaneously stop without any intervention in the middle of a workout and it is a hazard.

In December ********************************************************************************************************************************************************** the most recent support ticket, the customer service has been doing everything to avoid sending a technician.

Customer Answer
Date: 04/30/2023
Complaint: 19963458
I am rejecting this response because:
I have already sent the videos to the company and they continue to stall providing services purchased under the warranty. In fact, they have now asked via email for additional payment despite the fact that I have paid for the extended warranty. Asking for the video through the BBB channel is further evidence of their attempt to not fulfill their warranty obligation but rather stall as they have been provided multiple videos and are now asking for payment to diagnose the issue. The treadmill is covered under a purchased extended warranty that the company offered to sell to me and the treadmill is broken and clearly covered as the warranty has one year remaining. It is a very deceptive practice to sell a warranty to a consumer and not fulfill obligations of the warranty sold.

I purchased their treadmill within the past year. The warranty is only a year. I registered my purchase but they refuse to acknowledge it. My treadmill is not working based on any fault of mine. I paid for a technician to come out and service the item. The outcome was the brain of the unit needs to be replaced. This is not normal for a treadmil to be uncooperatable after just a year of minimum use.Business Response

Placed order for a NordicTrack Bike
Order # *******
Date of Order: 3/13/2023
Customer # ********
Received Date 3/27/2023
NordicTrack provides a 30 day return if not satisfied with the product.
The bike was put together according to instructions provided on 3/27/2023. Bike never powered on.
Called on 3/28/2023 to seek assistance
Call was 3 hours long and they couldn't get the bike to ever power on.
They said they'd ship out a cable to replace.
4/10/2023 - Called again, I haven't received the replacement part.
Still unable to use the bike at all, not functioning, doesn't power on.
when I called, I asked to return the Bike. They indicated that for me to do this, I will need to pay $250 for shipping and another $250 for restocking fee.
I didn't want to be charged for any of that since they shipped me a totally useless product.
They said that they'll ship the replacement part out.
4/20/2023: Part is still not received. Bike has been useless since it doesn't power on.
I would like to return this useless product that has never worked back and do not feel that I should pay for anything since I have not been able to use it at all and should get a FULL refund.
I need help getting to a resolution as the company doesn't want to budge on the ridiculous fees they are charging me for a product that is defective and unable to be used in any way.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:To clarify, I called and spoke to them yesterday. They indicated that they will refund my full amount of purchase and will not charge me for the fees.
I find it absolutely ridiculous that they are charging for fees on a product that does not work.
While I handled this myself with them see attached email confirmation from them showing the full amount of refund to me, they need to understand that this is returned due to it being broken.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:It has been over a month and I still do not have a refund in my account.As they requested in the last message, I called the financial institute they use to see if they see any refunds submitted by IFit. She mentioned that they do not see anything in the system for a refund.I asked her how long do they normally see a refund in the account when IFit submits the refunds and she mentioned that they usually see it within a couple of days.With that said and because I don’t see the refund yet, I have filed a dispute with the financial company. The case ID is BD******.I am obligated to make payments to this account even though I don’t have the product until the refund is submitted.I would request that this case be reopened and that IFit submit an immediate refund and that I see it in my account by the end of the week. This shouldn’t be this difficult and at this point I honestly think they’ve scammed me.

I purchased my IFit treadmill in 2020 and used it several times a week. In mid-March it did a software update and stopped working. I reached out several times and was told that there was nothing that could be done because I was out of warranty. I could spend additional money to have someone come out and then even more to buy the part. By the time I paid for parts and labor, I might as well buy a new unit.I think at this point it's pretty obvious to them what everyone's problem is and they don't want to admit to it or fix it. Horrible customer service.Business Response

My Nordictrack Commercial X32i treadmill frame broke. Model # NTL39221.4/ Serial number : *************. My report number is ********. The frame has a lifetime warranty on it per Manufacturer. I started calling on 03/16/2023 or near there and was told by customer service they would help me feel out the form. We did filled out form over the phone and was an email and told to upload pics of the treadmill showing the broken frame which I did, I was told I would receive an email in 7-10 days. 10 days later , nothing! I called again and was told the girl did not submit the form right, I then proceeded to do it all over again with another customer service(pics resubmitted all over again) I was told it would take another 7 to 10 days and an email would be sent to my husbands email address and that i could call back to check on progress. I waited a week called back , told its still processing. when I demanded to speak to supervisor was told they don't transfer calls to them. The customer service agent did put me on hold and supposedly it was approved and now I would get a call to deliver my new treadmill( I was told be a new one cause they cant just deliver a frame). I would be contacted in a week to 10 days from company to deliver it. 10 days went by , I called tonight ( 04,19,2023) and was told the forms were not filled out right all the other times and this agent would do them right.

I purchased the s22I on December 5, 2021. On ~ April 10th I attempted to turn on my machine and there was no power. The "power transformer" green LED was flashing. I reviewed many public social media posts who indicated that control board had failed. To get to the control board the two set screws had to be removed. The panel is inside. The control board LED is flashing red. I attempted to contact ICON Service Canada; who did not answer my email for over a week. The phone number would have a IVR message that said something to the effect of too many callers, please call back. I found out through social media the name has changed to IFIT; and to contact them through ********* I ordered a new control board; which I installed and the same issue persists. I got a response in email from ICON Service who after responding back; they provided a *** service number. I again told them I am in ******. Constant back and forth to get answers. went back to the ******** chat; and advised that the board does not solve the issue and that I called a tech in my area ( I took a video of the flashing LED's) and he suggested maybe the console or the power supply. I went back to the ******** chat and advised. They stop responding mid chat.Business Response

I have had a subscription to IFit that I do not use and have not used for a while. I tried to contact them when I saw the large charge appear on my credit card bill for ******. They charge a high annual subsciption fee and customer service is very hard to contact. I have tried to contact them by phone but they are only available during weekdays and have a long hold time. They are closed on weekends. I finally realized I can contact via email and sent them an email. They have responded that I needed to contact them within 30 days of the charge but I have been trying. It is now 32 days after the charge and they will not refund me. I have asked them to at least give me a prorated refund for the remainder of my subscription and they will not. It is not fair to automatically charge and then make it impossible to cancel and then to not give even a prorated refund.Business Response

I ordered a NORDICTRACK EXP 7i TREADMILL from them, and it came to me with some faulty parts. During assembly, we discovered that their screws for the right handrail did not fit into the screw-holes no matter how hard we tried. They fit on the left side, so this was obviously a faulty piece of railing. I tried to contact them about the next courses of actions. That was a big mistake. When I tried calling, they bounced me around from department to department until I got to the repairs/warranty. Then they dropped my call. I called back and then they tried to to say that my treadmill's warranty was voided...before I had even assembled the machine. I stuck with it, and they tried to get me to troubleshoot the problem through me SENDING THEM PICTURES AND RESPONDING OVER CHAT. This was an excruciating process that quickly ate up 2 hours of my time. Finally, because I was fed up with the whole experience, I told them that I wanted to return this faulty piece of c*** machine that was wasting way too much of my time. They said that their return policy had a $250 + 10% restocking fee. They are essentially con artists. I wouldn't be surprised if part of their business model included shipping out faulty products, and then relying on that ridiculous return policy and exasperated customers to generate some revenue because making and delivering quality products sure isn't.DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SCAM OF A COMPANY. THEY OFFER ONE OF THE WORST CUSTOMER EXPERIENCES I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED AND THEIR PRODUCTS ARE JUNK!Business Response

Good day,
This is ********* ******* and *** again writing concerning a treadmill we bought In May. We called about it giving us trouble in December with the board walk. We wrote to you through BBB around January (we said we wanted a replacement) and were told the parts will be sent and that you guys were going to extend our warranty for how long the treadmill was down.This is now April ending. After sending a technician multiple times (which by the way takes weeks to get to him as he is apparently the only technician a big company like you have in Maryland) about this treadmill and finally the tech came yesterday and told us it is fixed and then guess what this morning in the middle of running for 5 minutes the treadmill stopped abruptly and I fell off the treadmill (I run at a speed of 7). That was really scary and dangerous. I don't think my life is worth risking for a treadmill like that. I am traumatized even just thinking of climbing on that treadmill. We are just tired and done with this and this is a safety hazard. We are not going to be using this treadmill anymore. It is only fair at this point that we need a replacement. This has been 5 months going to 6 with no treadmill to use. I don't understand how you guys as a business function like this. Where is the fairness. Is it only about making profit and loosing you dignity? Put yourself in another persons shoes. I bought this treadmill very expensive because exercising helps my mental health. I have not been able to exercise at home and have been paying money to go to the gym just to keep my sanity which is running thin. Please I don't want to fight as I am already stressed and tired. Please do what is right and replace the defective treadmill we bought from you with one that is new and actually works.
Please do the right thing.
We won't mind escalating this further. We are not asking for anything else but fairness and consideration of my money and time. We have a video of the treadmill issue and recordings of multiple conversations with your staff.Business Response
