Just got off a chat with Fitbit. I love my blaze but it stopped reading my heart rate about a month ago when the battery started working erratically. We tried all the tests. But because my Fitbit is over a year old, I was informed that there’s nothing that Fitbit can do. There’s no repair shop. So basically if you have any issues with your Fitbit after the year warranty is up.. just consider it garbage. I have problems with this mentality. It’s horrible for the environment to have to throw away a plastic watch if it can’t be fixed. Fitbit isn’t finding repair solutions. They are wanting you to buy another Fitbit thus creating more waste. I loved my Fitbit, but I won’t be buying another Fitbit. I can’t support a company that isn’t thinking about the big picture.. the environment and what we can do to reduce plastic waste.
