Not being able to submit Amazon review on the Fitbit Versa

[GregJaxFL]

It can not be a good sign when Amazon has shut down reviews on the Versa as of the 16th.

That is such a total lie.  I did a review yesterday and I see about 30 additional reviews have been submitted since then.  Why are you on here spouting things that obviously are not true?

[GregJaxFL]

I just tried again and same result.  When you hit the one star a message comes up say they are not allowing any more reviews.  I have no reason to lie as I was a long time FitBit user.

The only reviews I see on the Versa I looked at were the 16th.

[Bobled]

Oh and to add insult to injury I believe you were the one who said amazon was pulling the produce because of a recall. Again that was not true.

Sort the review by date. There are reviews from today.

Could you provide a screenshot of that? The reviews for the Versa on Amazon seem fine to me.

[GregJaxFL]

Will do.  Standby!

Well Bob now you are a liar as I never said such a thing about Amazon doing a recall but I would not be surprised.

I think they are saying they think you are a scammer.  Plenty of other people have put reviews in.  Even today. 1 star reviews.  I put mine it it worked.  Not sure why they don’t like you. 

[GregJaxFL]

Funny thing is that they like me enough to post feedback on 6 other items, just not the Versa.

I think too many Versa owners posted the truth and Amazon want to sell off it's stock.

I have purchased hundreds of thousands of dollars at Amazon and they know me quite well.

I can't really read the text, but it appears that your review of the Versa was not accepted, not that all reviews are being rejected.

I've seen before where there have been campaigns to drive down a review upon a product release. It may be the Amazon has triggers to stop review flooding. But we can't know.

@GregJaxFL, did you read the link that explains Amazon's review guidelines?

I wonder if different "distributors" are not allowing reviews. There are a bunch on Amazon from different places.

[GregJaxFL]

When reviews are not accepted, they tell you so.

It says:

"This product has limitations on submitting reviews. This may be because we detected unusual review behavior on this product"

I doubt Amazon restricted the reviews because they were all so "glowing", don't you?

Again, that would point to review manipulation. It seems you want to see something nefarious here, so there's not much else to add. The implication that Amazon would halt negative reviews to improve its own sales is not credible to me.

 Edit: During the time it took me to write the above, the number of reviews on the Versa went from 97 to 102, so clearly they are allowing reviews, and the thread title is inaccurate.

[GregJaxFL]

If that is not credible, I have a bridge for YOU!

I guess the Versa reviews were all so good that Amazon thought it was fake.  LOL!

It must be a California thing!

[WavyDavey]

And yet, the thread title remains inaccurate, and the implication of it, also.

I also went on to Amazon and I also could not post a review, received the same message.  My Versa also isn't syncing.  Going to try a factory reset tonight.

If you didn't buy it off Amazon, you cannot post a review there. 

[Ellie818]

Right...I did buy it from Amazon.

[GregJaxFL]

Thanks Ellie88!

I hope you get it worked out.  Amazon is great for returns!

[GregJaxFL]

Nice try.

[Bobled]

Why is the inability of being able to do an amazon review belong on a Fitbit board?  Shouldn’t it be on an amazon board?
