New Blaze not downloading new software

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I recieved a new blaze as a christmas gift. Right out of the package it was not working. After calling customer support they told me it could take 2 weeks for me to get my replacement. Really not happy. I have purchased multiple fitbits as gifts. I have owned a charge, alta, and I own the fitbit scale. It is very difficult for me to understand how I have spent around $1,000 with a company over the course of a year and they are not willing to overnight me a new fitbit blaze.

Can you explain "not working"?

The software would not download into it. The device would turn itself off after being on for a minute or so even when fully charged. It is obviously defective.

The tracker is setup to the account, but can not be used until the new software

My thought would be to do the reset procedure at least 3 tikes in a row.

I would have first tried to exchange it at the place of purchase. As for fitbit tell them a week is unacceptable,younwant it on your arm tomorrow oversight , at the latest 2. days.

 

My nice just got a replacement and her 7 days came in at 3. Hope your as lucky.

I received a Blaze for Christmas today and like ggilla614 I did everthing the instructions told me, multiple times, and the only thing I can get on the screen is 'fitbit.com/setup.Every time I try to set it up I end up with a screen telling me 'could not complete your fitbit Blaze update'. That's it - nothing else happens!
