Just wanted to express how utterly rubbish it is that after trying out Premium for 3 months (after Fitbit literally spammed me to death saying I should try it on my Ionic) that I am now ineligible for the 6 month trial with a new Sense. Also worth noting it was bad value at 7.99 a month and it's now gone UP to 8.99. Yup, a few videos and some extra numbers cost more than Netflix.

The stats literally cost nothing extra for Fitbit to display, why on earth put them behind a paywall. This kind of customer "service" isn't easily forgotten. As a customer who has now spent 600 on 2 watches I expect better treatment.

Sorry to hear that you can't use your 6 months premium trail that comes with your new Fitbit Sense. Regardless of having used the 3 months trial that Fitbit provided a few months ago you should be able to use the 6 months Premium trail now. Do you still have the first trial activated on your account? If this is the case then you will need to cancel from the place you initially used to set it up (Apple store, Google's Play store, etc.). Once it is disabled/removed you should be able to see the option to start a new 6 months trial of the Fitbit Premium.

Hi @jinks I understand your frustration but as the terms clearly state the 6 month trial is only for new customers only, not those who have previously taken a premium trial. Besides you chose to buy the watches clearly knowing the terms and conditions so you are hardly in a position to complain.

That isn't true @SunsetRunner as I took advantage of the free Premium trial a few months ago at the onset of Covid, and once that trial ran out I canceled so was a free member. I just got my Sense and it allowed me to start a new 6 month Premium free trial and I successfully enrolled.

So regardless if you used a free trial previously or not doesn't matter, what does matter is if you are CURRENTLY a Premium member as if so it can't "refund" you to make it free. To get the 6 month free trial you need to currently be a basic/free Fitbit member. As long as that's the case then I'd ask Fitbit about it.

I just purchased the Sense. I've only ever been a free user and used (I think) a 1-month premium trial a while back. When I go into the app, it only allows me to subscribe (with payment), but not to activate a 6-month free premium trial (see screenshot). Do I even qualify for a free trial? I was under the impression that I would have the right to a free premium trial as long as I'd never paid for a subscription.

I've read in another thread that this is possible but you have to clear cache and then reinstall the app. I've cleared the cache - didn't work. As for uninstalling and reinstalling, I'm a bit worried about doing this so I don't lose data (I've read in other places on the forum that some users have lost their data when doing this). Plus it's just a hassle if i have to reconnect my device(s) and also maybe have to set things up again.

Unfortunately, I am being told adamantly that I can not do this. I cancelled my subscription as originally told to me by a Fitbit representative on the telephone and I was told the free trial was active on my account.

Today when I went into my App the premium had stopped working and when I called up I've been told I can not redeem the free trial I purchased with the watch as I have already had a free trial when I joined 5 + years ago. When I explained this was not the advice given to me previously or on their own forums she asked me to try resetting up the watch and I'm now back on hold.

I cancelled my subscription at the cost of 7.99 a month as well so to rejoin I'd be at the new price of 8.99!! Some advice on what I can do would be appreciated because as it stands I am really disappointed.

Heya! I had exactly the same issue. Had an email trail with someone in support and it literally went nowhere. What you have described here is how I thought it should work but never happened for me due to this person being really unhelpful. How can I proceed from here please?

Hulu is an amazing streaming service with thousands of award-winning TV shows and movies, including originals like The Handmaid's Tale, The Bear, Abbot Elementary, and more! Whether you're looking to binge an old favorite or hoping to find a new show to capture your attention, the Hulu 30-day free trial has you covered (and the reintroduction of a trial with its Live TV plan, too!). We have the details on how to sign up, and which plans are eligible so you can stop thinking and start watching!

With both the Hulu and Hulu Without Ads plans you can enjoy a whole 30-days without paying a thing. There was a time once when you could also enjoy a 7-day free trial of its Hulu with Live TV plan, but this option disappeared when the Disney Plus bundle was added to plans at no extra cost. The good news is you can now trial the Live TV plan again, though only a 3-day trial is available.

If you don't want live TV but do want Hulu bundled in with the other two streaming services, one of the best streaming deals around will bundle Hulu with Disney Plus (and ESPN Plus if you feel so inclined) from just $9.99 a month. Of course, you will miss out on the Hulu free trial when opting for this plan.

You will need a valid credit card to set up and start your Hulu free trial. Not to worry, though - you won't be charged until after the trial period ends. If you don't want to continue with the service and get charged, simply cancel your subscription before your trial expires.

However, if you're after great value for money, the aforementioned Hulu, Disney Plus, and ESPN Plus package gets you access to three streaming platforms, all with extensive libraries, for a really great price of $14.99 a month.

Promising 'All the TV you love' (and you can see what we think about that in our Hulu review) it has an extensive library filled with incredible TV shows and movies, including exclusive titles, Hulu Originals, and shows for the kids. Amongst award winning, gripping titles like The Handmaid's Tale and The Dropout, you can also find ridiculously entertaining movies like Palm Springs. Fancy a cartoon tailored for adults? Newer additions include being able to watch Shogun, Vanderpump Villa, and We Were the Lucky Ones, starring Logan Lerman, and Suncoast.

Blitz through boxset after boxset with much-loved shows like The Mindy Project, Drake and Josh, and America's Next Top Model. Into horror? 'Hulu horror movies' certainly has a nice ring to it. Hulu is home to FX, with over 40 horror movie titles like American Horror Story, Sons of Anarchy, and Fargo.

For documentary lovers, watch environmentalist Greta Thunberg in I Am Greta, or find out more about the origins of The Handmaid's Tale with Margaret Atwood: A Word After a Word After a Word is Power. You can even watch 2020's Academy Award winner for Best Picture, Parasite, right here.
