Is GAME Golf Officially Dead?

I gave it one more try today and finally deleted all of my rounds and data.  I removed my tags from my clubs.   Done, finished, Finito!

Yeah, it might be telling of my view that my putter tag, which I removed after finding it injured somehow when practicing a few days ago, I haven't even bothered to replace it yet (or look deeply into how to fix it).  I'll probably play Saturday without it and see from there.

I received an email from Game Golf

A new update of the app is coming soon which fixes this problem. Please bear with us.

 

too late for me.   I deleted my account and will have nothing to do with it.

Which isn’t quoted or anything.

“This” problem is what?

Apparently I have two rounds on my device (one of them is from yesterday, I wonder what the other one is, but I also have two failed uploads -- I haven't tried yesterday's yet).  Oh well, I'm recharging it and will record tomorrow's too.  TBD if I can even remember enough to sign the rounds when it's ready.

Well, I guess without my game golf I will no longer be told how long I really drive the ball.  From now on I am driving it 275 yards! 😜

I'm going to give the app one more update cycle. This is a semi-recent issue.

But after that…

Could you be more specific? What method, platform, etc.?

Game Golf Live using iPhone app. I’ve always uploaded my rounds fairly soon after I finish via my iPhone. 
 

Is that what you were looking for?

So you pair it using your phone during the round?

Some of us upload via the phone afterwards. But it isn’t paired during the round.

Yes. That is how I’ve always used it. I sometimes look at the hole map when playing an unfamiliar course, which admittedly isn’t that often.

This is encouraging, thank you.  I might yet have to figure out how to pair my phone and GG yet (although mine isn't an iPhone).

    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
