How do I get through the phone menu to a live person?
Consider using our free service that calls and talks to customer service for you, then sends you a report. Or use our free service that waits on hold and tells you when a human rep is on the line. But if those options don't appeal to you, our team has also documented the phone menu for Fitbit below.
Our AI powered phone can dial, navigate the phone menu, wait on hold, and even talk to customer service for you, for free. You don't even need to learn about the path through the various phone options.
That same, free GetHuman Phone can call and navigate the menus and wait on hold for you, but you can opt to do all the talking. We notify you when a rep is on the line and ready to talk, so no need to worry about changing menu options and weaving your way through the maze.
Of course, we completely understand if you prefer to do all the dialing, waiting, and talking yourself. All of these free tools are optional.
GetHuman researchers routinely call this Fitbit phone number to document the phone system.

What are the hours and when should I call?
Fitbit operates the call center for this 877-623-4997 phone number Mon-Fri 9am-5pm PT.The short answer is that you should call on a Tuesday.This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 877 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).
When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, it will automatically wait until the Fitbit call center opens before trying to call. It will ask your permission before it places the call, so you can also further delay that scheduled call until you are ready. But that means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time.
An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Fitbit phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Fitbit staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.
The least busy time to call
The least busy day to call Fitbit is Friday.The most busy day to call is Tuesday, which averages 49% more phone calls by comparison.Again, this is based on a sample of 877 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold
We measured the shortest hold times to be on Tuesday.The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Thursday, which is 129% longer than the minimum.As you can see, there is more fluctuation in hold time over the course of the week than there is in call volume.
In summation, the best day to call Fitbit is Tuesday.It isn't the least busy day, but the fact that hold times are shortest combined with it being on the busy side tells us that Fitbit staffs up on Tuesday to handle the higher call volume, and that makes it the best time to call.
Calling Fitbit doesn't seem to be very effective, because the customer service representatives don't know the basics of what they do and don't follow up in accordance with the company's stated policies.
When I dialed, the system told me that I could request help with one of several areas, including technical support, existing orders or placing a new order. I said that I wanted to place a new order, and the system told me that it would take me to the appropriate representative. It said that if my call got disconnected, the representative would give me a call back unless I opted out of it. I did not opt out, and I was quickly connected with a representative, who asked me how she could assist me.
I said that I was looking at placing a new order for a Fitbit, and I wanted to know how long it would take to get a Fitbit sent over to Hawaii. The representative didn't seem to be listening carefully and asked me when I had placed the order. I said that I had not placed an order yet; I was simply looking to put in a new order and wanted to get an idea of about how long it would take.
She asked me again about my order, thinking I had placed it today, and I said again that I had not yet put in an order. She said that she would have to check with her supervisor to get the information and asked to place me on hold. I thought that was strange, but I said that was okay and waited.
After a few minutes, she came back on and said that she had the information, but she needed me to give her my name before she was allowed to provide it. Again, I thought it was strange, but I gave my name. However, at that point, the call got cut off, and I waited for a few minutes, expecting the immediate call back that Fitbit had promised. No call back ever came from the representative.
Overall, I really wasn't impressed with this call. There were some positives, notably in how quickly the system progressed me through to talking with a representative and how I was able to narrow down where I needed to direct my call. However, the promises that the system made turned into a negative once it became clear that Fitbit couldn't or wouldn't live up to them. Getting a call back automatically would have been a good thing, but it didn't end up happening.
I was also unimpressed with the representative not knowing something as basic as how long shipping might take. I understand that not every representative will know everything, but this should have been something they'd have taught team members from the beginning. Based on this, I wouldn't use this number if I was a genuine customer.

Information about why customers call Fitbit is extracted from issues that customers have reported to GetHuman.
If phone-based customer service is not available, or the wait times are long, many people prefer chat as a next-best option. Some even prefer it to calling on the phone. Luckily, Fitbit provides this option.
Corresponding with a customer service department by email may not be your first choice, especially if your issue is urgent or time-sensitive. But email is a nearly ubiquitous form of communication, and Fitbit will reply our your email.
Fitbit, like many companies, provides customer service on the X platform (formerly Twitter). While it rarely entails live dialogue with a customer service rep, this channel can yield rapid response times and can be a useful option if you have an X/Twitter account.
As a last, sometimes only, resort- Fitbit customer service can be accessed through their website. This can entail digging through help articles before finding a form and "being allowed" to submit a problem to their team, and rarely leads to a real-time conversation, which is why GetHuman does not recommend this unless it's the only way.
