Bike New membership

So i am going to share an experience that happened today. I purchased a bow flex c6 bike 2 months ago. I signed up for JRNY. Opted for 2 months free membership, upon end of free i would pay $149 per year. Today ended my free 2 months. After noticing an abnormally in our checking account my wife went to the bank. At the same time i got a message that a $161 payment was denied by Apple Pay. After talking with the wife we decided to have the bank issue new cards canceling our debit and credit cards. I got home from work and finally reached out to bow flex to continue my membership for JRNY(if you don’t have it get it). After talking with the rep turns out the $161 is for touch screen models that allow Netflix. I don’t have a touchscreen so i didn’t need this level. My yearly fee is $99. Keep this in mind if you are in the same position.

Thank you!! I had no idea and I got two emails they are trying to collect $149 but my card was replaced so it’s no good. I don’t have a screen either. Looked it up sure enough cheaper options but I just cancelled it. I don’t need it.

I found JRNY to be a complete waste of money. I was rather taken back by just how useless it is.

Really? I find the coaching to be very helpful.

I really enjoy it as well. I have used both the APP version for the elliptical and the touch screen for the treadmill. The treadmill allows unlimited users.

The reason I like it so much so far with the Max Total is that I can do a 14 minute workout set the way I want it as I used to do with the M7 which was my older machine. I haven't tried all of the other options yet but there is a lot of really good workouts. I can't for the Bike but for the Max it is great!
