If your claim is denied or out of warranty
Common reasons Fitbit denies a claim or treats it as out of warranty:
- Damage caused by accident, abuse, liquid exposure, or unauthorized service/modifications.
- Product purchased from an unauthorized reseller or without valid proof of purchase.
- Normal wear and tear, such as band discoloration, minor scratches, or battery degradation.
- Failure to return the defective product as instructed by Google/Fitbit support.
Third-party protection plans (Asurion, Upsie, SquareTrade) or your credit card's purchase protection may still cover a repair or replacement — check those before paying out of pocket.
