My Versa lite battery shat the bed after 6 months.
I was offered a replacement product or 50% off a purchase. Since the product is discontinued, they could not offer a replacement.
So they offered 50% off a new purchase. But I can only buy online from their US website (I’m in Canada), not a local retailer. So Instead of buying a versa 2 at sport chek for $220, I can buy it for $260 on the website with the exchange rate and shipping. Cool dude.
Also, Why would I want to buy a more expensive watch when the one I bought didn’t even last 6 months?
fitbit is clearly a garbage budget smart watch

Thank you for your response. As an update, after several emails back and forth, customer support did honor their warranty by offering a free upgrade to a better fitbit watch. I am much happier with this solution.
