Charge 3 won't track active minutes and calories

I’ve contacted Fitbit 4 times and still not resolved my problem. 
the active minutes show 0 at all times even when I’ve been for a run or done any form of exercise.

the calories also don’t work. 
very disappointed.

Also, visit this article, which provides more information about how it tracks your calories burned.

Yep I am having the exactly same issue. It's records it on my app and on the device, then in the next sync the data is removed and back to 0 active minutes. 

I'm also losing steps, today I've had 1,500 deducted from my device and app dashboard with the space of 20 mins. 

I've uninstalled the app and restarted the phone before reinstalling.

I've unpaired the device and phone 

I've also rebootef the device. 

My charge 3 has not been acturately functioning for at least three weeks despite multiple resets.
