Peloton cancelled my membership due to not upgrading to the new version of the screen. The membership was digital and the alternative they provided was their digital membership, which doesnt have the ability to use a TV and cycle. They offered a discount in upgrading the screen, but I have a TV and the digital membership so it was unnecessary. The offer the altered digital membership, which doesnt have cycling content. So I now own a platoon bike with no ability not ride it with classes unless I forcibly upgrade the screen. The new membership invalidated the reason for the bike altogether. This is at best predatory and at worst fraud. They did not communicate that the screen upgrade would cancel my membership.Initial Complaint

In 2020 we purchased a Peleton Bike and a $44/mo subscription. In 2022, we purchased a second bike for a secondary residence. Without telling us, Peleton opened a "second" account under the same email address and started charging us $46.50, in addition to the original $44/month. Regrettably we only caught this double charge two years later. I called Peleton and they said they opened a second account so we could "use the two bikes at once," which we were not doing, and we never would have agreed to. They would only refund 3 months (out of 24 double-charges) and gave us a 3 months credit going forward. We would like a full credit for the 24 months as this was really deceptive. When they brought the bike to the secondary residence, all they said was, go ahead and sign in, and we did so using the existing account. We were never told that this would double our fees.Initial Complaint

After many many hours of phone calls and Peleton blaming AMEX and AMEX blaming Peleton I finally figured it out. I made purchase of $3730.24 on May 22, 2024. Delivery by the ****** associate was offered of May 29, 2024. Of which I accepted. The minute my payment was made in store AMEX approved transaction and was held in pending status which makes that amount of credit unavailable! ******* then after the fact finding out 4-5 days before delivery attempt to take funds. Well that would be the *****th. My AMEX was still pending rendering credit lower. So When Peleton attempted to keep taking money out the credit was no longer available and kept failing. Had the delivery date chosen been further out then the pending would have dropped me been made avail back to my AMEX well before delivery. Since was still pending money was never taken by peloton and there fire order cancelled. Now I have to order again well after the fact as I have to wait more days for my AMEX to put my credit back in my account (Jun 2 up to 10 days) and reorder, select delivery date well into future to ensure the pending hold falls off before merchant takes funds, and will now have to coordinate when I will be in town for that delivery! The problem is the merchant Peleton is the one that offered such a close delivery date causing this issue therefore owes me a significant discount!!Initial Complaint

Peleton has been charging us monthly fees- because we had not reset the bike to factory settings. We were not informed to do so. They did not delete out credit card when we called and cancelled the membership. I believe it is unfair to bill on a old credit card on file once the membership is discontinued. Not knowing that membership is only discontinued and not billed if the bike is not set to factory settings. Asking for credit card information again at onset of a membership that is discontinued would be a fair practice.Initial Complaint

Peleton delivered a treadmill to our house through their delivery company RXO and broke a pillar outside our home. The delivery driver backed into the pillar with the delivery truck. We have been trying since November to get Peleton and/or RXO to pay for the broken pillar ($600) but have yet to receive a check or any follow up communication.Initial Complaint

Peleton bike was ordered October 5, 2020. Purchase price was $2,194.23. On May 11th 2023 I was notified that the bike post was recalled for safety concerns. I placed an order for replacement on May 12th, 2023. I have not received my replacement. Peleton committed to the replacement in order for me to utilize their product. I received emails in May stating I would receive part on June 2nd. I did not receive the part. I was then notified there has been a back order and I would receive it no later that August 13th. I did not receive the part. I called again and was notified of a back order. I was emailed stating I would receive the replacement no later than September 29th. I did not receive the part. I called and was placed on hold for over 20 minutes and still no resolution. I am unable to utilize the bike due to safety concerns . I am requesting full reimbursement for the purchase.Initial Complaint

To whom it may concern,I am writing to express my displeasure regarding my recent communication with the **************** In December of 2020, I purchased a Peloton stationary bike for exercise during the time of the pandemic. My initial experiences with the company were satisfactory. As part of my purchase, I paid for an extended warranty to cover parts associated with the bike. In June of 2023 the flat screen monitor for the bike ceased to work. When I contacted ******* support they attempted to assist with a manual rebooting of the bike due to a perceived software update. It was discovered that the issue was not associated with a software update and that the monitor simply stopped working. The cost for a new monitor would be for the cost of a new Touchscreen at $650.00 and to have a Service Technician come out will cost $159.00. The total cost for the bike at the time of purchase was less than $2,000. The extended warranty that I purchased ended in approximately March of this year; two months before the bike went nonoperational. I want to add that for the lifetime of the bike I have rode it less than 100 times. To expect that I pay almost half the cost for the bike to repair a monitor is senseless. The bike had to be defective.Initial Complaint

I purchased a Peloton treadmill and upon delivery my home was damaged due to inadequate staff to complete the job. They were many hours late with no explanation, and arrived at 730pm. The delivery men were short handed and unable to handle the weight of the treadmill with just 2 men. They subsequently drug the treadmill through my home rather than picking it up, and put it down on every step (3 flights) of stairs, creating deep gauges in every step. They continued to drag it after they passed the 3 flights of stairs, destroying my hardwoods and even my engineered hardwoods in the room that they eventually placed it. To make matters worse, they were completely unaware of how to assemble the treadmill and left it in disrepair, with broken pieces and pinched wiring. The treadmill was making thumping noises and not functional. Since then Peloton has given us the run around. After many months they eventually replaced the treadmill, but initially offered to only send a repairman out. They additionally refuse to give us any answers in regards to the damages and continually push us to harass RXO Delivery (their subcontractor) for a resolution to the damages to our home that total over $5,000. *** refuses to handle the issue and wont return communications. This is my last step before taking legal action.
