3rd Sent Warranty Replacement Isn't Working

Great, I thought, my 3rd warranty replacement has arrived. Let’s start again.

Downloaded the app, charged the watch, left it plugged into the charger, logged into my Fitbit account, paired to Bluetooth, and watched the battery level drop to 81% whilst the software update hung at 5% and the watch kept losing connection. Not quite sure how close it wants me to be when it tells me to keep my watch close.

Deleted the app from my phone, and installed it on my iPad. Found it, connected it via Bluetooth, started the update, and it simply fails again.

This is the third replacement for a premium product that got stuck in a continuous boot loop after 6 weeks.

I am just totally fed up now as since the beginning of December last year, I have had 4 watches in total, and had just 6 weeks of use. If any Fitbit moderator reads this, how do I get my money back?
