I bought my wife a new Ionic for Xmas, I have the Adidas version and it works well, the battery lasts well over a week.
This one at first would only go 24-48 hours on charge, so I hard reset it and updated the firmware. It seemed to improve slightly but it then started dropping to 0% very quickly needing a 3 button reset to get it on to charge. Its gone off again today but attaching it to my cable which I know works and trying a reset, it wont come on, its dead.
Tried cleaning the contacts but its new, hasn't made any difference.
What now.

From your description, it sounds like your issue is slightly different than mine although one can't be too sure. I say this because mine was working fine, keeping a charge 4-5 days depending on my app usage, then one day when it was time to charge, it just stop. Like you I cleaned the connectors and even reset it to factory setting but nothing worked. Hopefully when someone from Fitbit responds they'll have a solution. Up until that point, I was very content with my watch. It did exactly what I needed without too much unnecessary functionality.
Good luck with your issue!
