I bought a $2,000+ treadmill from Proform. I even bought extended warranty to cover everything. Less than 2 years after I bought it, the belt has a crack and it keeps getting caught on the sides of the treadmill every time I use it. I have contacted the company and they said they have ordered the part. A week later, I followed up, and each time i followed up, it takes almost 30 minutes and over for a live agent. I was told a few days ago that the inventory for the part has arrived and will take a week or so for QC to go through it. 3 days later, I contacted them again to find out the status. Now they are telling me that the part is on back order with no ETA in sight. Worst worst company ever. For the price of the treadmill including the extended warranty I paid for, this should not happen!!Business Response

I am rejecting this response because I need to know a time line. Not an indefinite timeline. Again, the item is not an inexpensive item and I use this product 3 to 4 x a week. I can't just sit here with no definitive timeline in sight.

I am being charged twice a month for my ifit individual membership for the last 4-5 months. I have reached out through chat, email and on their site. I NEVER get an actual person or a response. I just get auto emails with case numbers and nothing ever happens. When I do get a response its auto generated with links for help. Never a response on these charges. Instead of $14.99 a month they take out two charges of $14.99. That is almost $150 in charges the past 5 months for a membership which should be $75 for 5 months. I am filing with BBB because clearly ifit is running a complete scam. I am even more convinced now reading other complaints. I am asking for my account to be corrected as well as a credit for the 2nd charges I have been getting for 4-5 months.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because I have dozens and dozens of emails of ifit falsely telling me someone from a certain department will contact me. For over 4 months I have yet to hear a word and they continue to double charge me. When I get an actual call from a human being, not an auto generated email, and this issue is completely resolved and I am refunded the 4 months of false deductions from my checking account ~ then I will accept and potentially drop the complaint with the BBB.

My wife and I purchased a Profornm treadmill through IFIT In October of 2021. In worked pretty well for 10 months but broke in August of 2022 well inside the one year warranty but I ended up buying an extended 4-year-warranty any way. The treadmill has been broken since August, so nearly 6 months. I've spent countless hours on the phone with ***************** I have operator names and case notes for many of the calls. They just keep mailing me replacement arts and sending out service techs (because my warranty covers it). The last time the tech came out (which is third party, not an ifit employee) was about two weeks ago. He replaced everything he said could possibly be causing the problem and the belt still won't move when you stand on it. He told me very clearly, "you need to get them to give you a new machine." I've been telling the people at IFIT since October that I felt it was a bad model and I would happily pay for an upgrade because "I just want a working treadmill." They just keep sending me parts that don't fix the problem. After the last tech left I submitted an email through i-FIT's website (Tuesday 1/31/23) telling them it needs to be replaced. I detailed the terrible customer service and 6 months of a non-working treadmill with case notes and operator names. I asked them to respond to me with a solution, that doesn't involve another 6 weeks of waiting for parts, by the end of the week or I would file a complaint with BBB. I never received a response. It seems very clear to me based on other customer feedback that i-FIT is very used to this.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:I have been patient with i-fit for 6 months. I've given them every opportunity to provide good customer service. They keep saying "we're so sorry" and "We completely understand" and then they keep making me wait 6-8 weeks for more parts and more service that doesn't fix the problem. I've been asking for a replacement since November and the response is always the same. I've never filed a complaint with the BBB before because I've never experienced customer service this terrible. This machine failed after 10 months of use. Well within the original 12 month warranty. They've had 6 months to try to fix it their way. A replacement or a refund is the only acceptable response now.

Nov 2021 I purchased an incline trainer ***************************** SERIAL #: ************* PURCHASED AT: ************************ PURCHASE for $3000.00. Not the cheapest treadmill. To start the machine came with a broken dashboard cup holder panel, admitted by rep who did video trouble shooting that it was manufacturer damage and should not have passed quality and gone out like that, then the stickers with brand name fell off within 2 weeks. The reason for my report however, Oct 2022 I had a walking belt because anything faster than a walk makes a terrible noise. I was told my warranty would cover it. I was also told I would be shipped the parts to try to fix it, instead of sending a tech and if that didn't work I could request a tech, but strongly suggested I try, but again I was covered and once the parts were received i could call back to schedule a tech but that could not be done until parts were in. Also, she then told me I should renew/pay for my extended warranty to make sure no lapse in coverage. I paid for that as well over $200. During this call I told the rep I would not be handling it soon due to a busy Nov with out of town wedding, birthday and Thanksgiving. She assured me it was ok because I was covered either way. When I got back to normal at the beginning of Dec after 15, yes 15!!!! Calls, between the company and extended blaming each other and transferring and hanging up on me I was finally told by a Supervisor that my issue would have been covered had I called the day after Thanksgiving because they were open??!!! But since I called in Dec it was too late. I told her per my previous conversation that I was told either way I was covered. I reported it before my warranty expired and purchased an extended warranty, and I waited to receive the parts to call back. I did EVERYTHING Nordictrack told me to do. She simply said there was nothing she could do. All I was asking was for a tech to install the parts as they told me they would on my $3,000 treadmill.Business Response

I bought a Nordic track s15i back in 2020. We used it religiously and loved the equipment a lot! Then all of the sudden our incline stopped working. We made a call and got a part delivered to put on ourselves (which we thought would be easy. Well we received the part and it didnt fit at all! So I made another call and they said they could send someone out for $150 since my warranty is no longer valid and I didnt buy the extended warranty. They also told me someone would contact me from the service department and I never heard from them. Fast forward a couple of months later after still trying to get someone to answer the phone. We are currently waiting on a call from the service department also have sent emails and I have a case number that no one has even responded to. They no longer have our bike we bought on the website so Im really confused as to what the deal is. I was told that if they couldnt fix the bike they would deem it not usable and replace the bike well how can they do anything when no one is following thru with anything at this point to let me know what is going on!?!Business Response

My treadmill stopped working completely. I tried turning on and off the machine, unplugging the equipment and still nothing. I called the nordictrak/ifit but no answer, I sent an email on January 19, 2023 and no response. I messaged by chat and I was told right now they are concentrating on new customer and sales so they cannot attend to my concerns. I tried messaging again on the chat and no response. I called on Feb 1st and I was on hold for 2 hours with no assistance. I am not interested in getting the run around and no assistance. I recently put my membership on hold because I saw that ********** option which is did not know about. I need assistance; I am not able to work out and take care of my health and no one seems to respond.Business Response

Have a **** NordicTrack commercial treadmill. Ifit forced an update in August of 2022 that caused console to stop working. Treadmill was still under warranty. They finally sent a new console in October 2022. Couldnt use treadmill for two months. Installed new console and it only worked two months. Same error as original console. Been calling them for 5 days and finally got through to be told nothing they could do. So I basically have a treadmill that has had two consoles and wont work! Cant believe my treadmill was under warranty when this all happened and now they wont send me another console knowing the reason it wont work. There are complaints all over social media and a law suit against ifit. They pushed an update that causes console to not respond. Guess everyone should join the lawsuit to get our money back.Business Response

I purchased a brand new Norditrack treadmill for $1799 on September 23, 2022 and December 28, 2022 the walking platform in now cracked. I have constantly tried to contact the company for warranty support but keep getting the run around. I now have a broken treadmill that I cannot use and can't seem to get any resolution from the company. They keep saying the part is coming in, but never does. Its too late to return the item so now I am stuck with an inoperable treadmill. At this point I would like for them to replace the treadmill with a new one. I am a DISABLED VETERAN and rely on fitness equipment to do my required walking rehab exercises.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because: The social media team did not resolve my issue, they have just repeated what was already said. They keep saying "the part is forthcoming"! I fulfilled my end of the deal. A deal is where two parties to fulfill certain obligations. I paid $1800 for the treadmill and the company promised to deliver the equipment for my usage. Well for the past 40+ days I have not been able to use the equipment that I paid for. Therefore, I see it as they are not fulfilling their end of the "deal".If the part is not available in a timely manner the business should have a policy in place to replace the equipment. I should not have to go 40+ days without being able to use the equipment. Just like automobile have a "lemon law" there should be something equivalent in this case. When I called in the warranty ticket on December 28, 2022 I was told it would be to me in 3-5 days, well we are at 40+ days. Every time I try and contact someone, I keep getting the same answer. This is not proper customer service.

December 2022 my console on my Proform treadmill would not load. It would not load to the login or home screen. I attempted device reset several times. I contacted Proform/Ifit and spoke with an agent for live chat to show that the screen was not working and has now went completely black on 12/22/22. I was told my treadmill was still covered under warranty and that my part would be sent. I called after 3 weeks of order showing still processing. I was told it would be sent and I should receive replacement console withing 2 weeks. My order is still showing as processing. I have attempted to contact customer support, waiting on hold for over an hour, I am on hold now 49 mins. I've tried several times to get a live agent in the chat but Nothing happens, unable to connect to live agent. It is impossible to get an update on this order.
