As Audien Hearing update to my previous review on…
As an update to my previous review on Audien Hearing, I just had an online video meeting with Audien Support who took me through all troubleshooting steps, and we decided that a refund was in order, which Bryon, the tech, readily agree to provide a full refund. It's apparent I did not give this company a chance to rectify my request to return so this update will serve to amend my previous negitive comments!

Not for all
On the plus side, Audien hearing aids are reasonably priced. On the negative side, I couldn’t stop them from feedback squealing, despite trying all of the company’s suggestions for doing so. I gave up, returned them through CBS Deals (which is how I bought them) and got a full refund.

terrible service when it comes to returning the Ion Pro
I have been going back and forth by phone and e-mail advising that the hearing aids do not work. My e-mails requesting a shipping label are being ignored, and by phone Lucy/Lucia promised to send me the label, but after two days it has not arrived. Terrible customer service.

Long story/Good Experience So Far
I've upgraded to hearing aids from hearing amplifiers (used for the past 3 years), going for the Atom 2 HAs first. Experience was not good: sound level couldn't be reduced enough, feedback whistling/screeching was nearly continuous, and supplied rubber plug tips were too small. Decided to return for a refund, but my request was never answered over 5 days. I called Support and discussed my issue, but agent wanted me to upgrade to ION/ION Pro instead. I decided to shop around to compare my options upgrading to a BTE style, as past experience showed in-ear-canal amplifiers would pop out occasionally (lost a couple). Nothing looked better than the ION/ION Pro HAs. Started a sequence of email chats with Patricia, who was very patient and understanding. I ended with upgrading my ATOM 2 HAs to ION Pro 2 w/Bluetooth. Upon receiving these a week later, I charged them up fully and choose a good fit domes. NOW, that is more like it! The sound quality is much better than anything I've tried, no feedback unless I force it (cupping my ears with my hands). The BT app seems to work pretty well, but every day, the HAs disconnect/connect multiple times even though my phone is in my back pocket. My phone is a year old, and have never had BT problems with several sets of ear buds, a remote speaker or streaming. So its the app or HAs with a BT issue I'll have to deal with. Overall, I'm satisfied so far with my purchase and with Support -- we need more Patricias manning support phones!

Customer service was great
Customer service was great, I had taken an online hearing test, and was rated with mild to moderate hearing loss. The background noise with the Ion Hearing Aids was too loud for me, so I decided that maybe my hearing loss was not so bad after all, and returned them.

I couldn’t ask for more!
These are my first hearing aids, and I’m very pleased with them. I’ve had them for almost a month, and my hearing is definitely better with them! Customer service has been excellent. I love being able to adjust them with my phone. The size is remarkably small: the behind the ear model is hardly noticeable even though my hair is quite short. And the price is really reasonable. What more could I ask for?
Response from Audien HearingMay 5, 2025
