My Versa 3 also died today. I felt it vibrate briefly, as if it was signaling its last gasp or perhaps saying farewell. The annoying thing is this is my third Fitbit in three years. Third! At just about the one year mark, they die. I'm starting to think Fitbit plans this. Hey, why not, they can offer me a 35% discount and still make money from me, once a year!
So today, just like the last two years, I got online with chat, told them the problem, went thru the "clean the contacts" schtick, tried a couple of chargers blah blah blah and of course the Versa 3 continued playing dead. Which it apparently does really well. So again, chat says someone from the team will send me an email tomorrow. Right away I knew they'd send the same old boilerplate message offering a 35% discount. Fool me twice, right?! Down at Fitbit HQ they're getting better at the emails, as it arrived within an hour. I turned to my spouse saying, "welp, there it is, standard offer of 35% off". Can I say like clockwork? Now that I don't have a clock on my wrist? Anyway Fitbit, not this time. I'm done with Fitbit. Time to move on to another manfufacturer.
