I’m extremely disappointed with both the product and the company’s response. We purchased a Tile Slim (wallet tracker) at the beginning of December as a Christmas gift, so it was not unboxed or used until December 25. We began using it in January and quickly realized that it never worked at all. The wallet Tile never updated, could not be located, and was essentially unusable from day one. After attempting to troubleshoot and use the product for several weeks, I contacted customer support on January 30 — roughly 30 days from first use, not purchase. Initially, the company was not willing to offer any resolution at all and repeatedly cited their return window based on the purchase date. Only after escalating the issue was a warranty replacement offered. However, a replacement of the same product is not a meaningful solution when this appears to be a widely documented, systemic issue. A simple search shows thousands of similar complaints reporting that the wallet Tile does not work. Despite clearly explaining that the product was defective from first use and that a replacement would not resolve the issue, the company refused to provide a refund. This was not a late return or buyer’s remorse, it was a defective product paired with an unwillingness to stand behind it. I would strongly caution anyone considering the wallet Tile to read reviews carefully and be aware that if it doesn’t work (which seems common), you may be stuck with it.
