    I ordered a Chirp Wheel in January. I received it promptly but it did not work as advertised for me. So I went through their return process and received their return authorization. I shipped the product back to them (using their return labels, etc.). But I have not received a credit to my credit card or a refund. On their website it states that the return was approved and is in process. It's been 5 weeks. I have reached out to them twice via their email address and received no reply.

    Hi *****,

    Thank you for reaching out, I apologize for the long awaited refund. Typically with our return process, we review every return that arrives back to us for any damages or misplaced items.

    Our warehouse has been seeing a large influx of volume due to holiday returns that has made this process a bit longer than expected. I have gone ahead and have processed this return for you. 

    An email confirmation will be sent to you confirming refund details.

    Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. Thank you.

    I have two chirp wireless estim systems (one I purchased myself and one received as a gift) both ordered Oct 2024 and received Nov & Dec 2024, much later than the originally stated delivery date. However, both in warranty when I reached out to Chirp. One of the units does not work and I have sent numerous emails and videos (at their request) without resolution. In some emails they claim they did not get emails from me whereas other emails they claim they cannot view my videos. It is a loop of non action and I suspect it is to run the warranty time out. I am frustrated and simply want an exchange of my non working Chirp Halo device with a working one. Either that or a refund and honestly I prefer to have a working product. They are not responsive and when I research it seems this is typical of this company. False promises and inconsistent faulty products. I believe they had challenges fulfilling orders due to high sales (thus them not meeting shipping dates) and also compromised product integrity to just get something delivered. As a consumer I am left without any option and an expensive non working product. Something needs done.

    I am rejecting this response because: The case is not resolved.  You indicate you’re unable to find my order information and requested I provide and I am as follows.  To clarify, I have provided this previously, to Chirp customer service.  Regardless, ORDER #************ which should provide you my name and mailing address from your records but I will provide here as well:

    Hi *****,

    Thank you for providing that information, I was able to locate your original order for the Halo Double.

    I apologize for the experience you have received so far, even with the original order number I was unable to locate any conversation history tied to the email associated with the order number. But it does sound like there were a few mishaps regarding this warranty. As our warranty policy is eligible for one year from date of receipt. In order to remedy this, I would love to either honor a return or a replacement. 

    If you would like to start a return, I can email you a pre-paid return shipping label today to begin this process.

    If you would like to begin a warranty replacement, please note that the Chirp Halo Double is currently out of inventory and will be expected to ship between the dates of 2/28/2025-3/3/2025. Once fulfilled, we will email you a tracking number of the newly fulfilled item. 

    Please confirm how you would like to move forward.

    Thank you.

    Hi *****,

    Thank you for your message.

    In regards to your most recent Halo Double purchase.


    With some unfortunate news, we were unable to get your order shipped out in our promised timeframe and we humbly apologize for the incorrect information we have relayed to you.

    Our sales demand has exceeded expectations and has caused a delay with your Halo Double estimated shipping date which has been updated to December 16th, 2024. We will be honoring an expedited shipping method so your order may arrive before Christmas.

    Understandably this is news no one wants to hear, but unfortunately we are at the mercy of inventory availability. If you would like to cancel this order, please let me know promptly and I will issue the cancellation immediately.

    Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience and to let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

    Thank you.

    Hello, I purchased a set of different size Chirp Wheels. About 6 months ago one snapped and I fell sideways onto the floor. No injury. I contacted Chirp multiple times and never heard back from them. Recently another wheel from the set snapped. Two out of four wheels in the set have now snapped. I would simply like two replacement wheels from them but they ignore any requests from me. I believe they should be sued over this, I can see someone getting hurt but mainly because they ignore the issue. If they actually addressed it then they would be a good company. Overall, the wheel has helped my back and I would like them to replace the wheels. Thank you!

    We have purchased two combo packs of Chirp wheels, which are a physical therapy exercise product. The first time we purchased it, all three of the wheels broke within a few weeks to months. The company replaced them per their warranty after we sent pictures of the damaged products. They never requested that we return the broken products when they sent us new ones. After the products continued to break, the company stopped honoring the warranty and accused us of sending the same pictures of broken wheels. They said we had to purchase a new set since it was their policy to collect the broken products when they replaced them. Again, this was never requested or suggested. We decided to purchase a new set because they are very helpful to my husbands back. We purchased the new set last May and have had many broken products again. This time we have saved every broken product in case they needed proof. Still they have not asked for these broken products to be returned but they have once again stopped honoring their warranty and said we need to buy a new set. They said we have asked for too many replacements. There is no reason these should be breaking like this. The weight limit is 500 pounds; my husband weighs about 210 and is six foot six. I just dont think its right that they will not honor their warranty because their product is breaking too much.

    Hi,

    Thank you for submitting this request. I have taken a look at the previous communication threads between our 2 parties. I apologize for the hassle and mishandling of the situation, as it appears this was previously rejected both due to high  volume of previously damaged products and previously submitted photos re-entering the email thread causing internal confusion.

    I have gone ahead and have created a new order to be shipped to the previous address listed on your file. An email confirmation regarding the new order has been sent, email me personally at ******************************** if any corrections are necessary. 

    Once again, I apologize for the elongated attempts to receive our product and would love to personally assist in any future matters in attempts to better improve your experience. 

    Thank you, and have a nice day.

    Chirp wheel 12in is too large and narrow. This caused the chirp wheel to fall over because my balance was a little off. I then fell hard on top of the chirp wheel side and felt like I broke my back. This product should be modified to have more cushion on the side/inside to prevent harm.

    On Sept 14, 2022 i suffered a back injury due to the chirp wheel snapping in half. After contacting rep Kiara V and manager Ethan, i was informed that the chirp wheel has a know product defect (please see attached email admission from chirp) which caused my painful injury which i have been suffering with for the last six months. I have reached out to Chirp (Ethan) on several occasions to get help with my injury and im now being ignored. Chirp doesn't want to take ownership for the know product defect and is putting the public at risk

    I ordered the Chirp 4-wheel pack on Dec 8, 2022 for $99.99. The initial confirmation email said it should ship within 1-2 business days. Having not even received a shipping notice, I emailed customer service on 12/22/22. A representative apologized and said I could get a refund or new order. I asked for a new order. I never received another order number OR order confirmation OR shipping confirmation. So I emailed customer service 5 more times over the next month and got all kinds of apologies and excuses, the last of which was that a new order would have to be placed but they could provide expedited shipping. I said ok. It’s 3 days later and I still have no new order number or tracking information. So I emailed and told them I give up and want a refund, and I opened a dispute on my credit card as they have never delivered the goods promised. This company is a mess. Maybe they make a decent product, no idea. They can’t even manage to ship it! And the sense I get is that they are very shady and not direct and yes yes yes customers with no actual follow up.

    I purchased a blanket on their website for $13 and some change on 1210 2022 and I have not received it. I've emailed them and they have not responded but they deducted it from my account. I would either like the blanket or my money back.
