No customer support, devices don’t work, and app is aweful
I purchased 3 shine units in June. They weren’t delivered until late October despite claiming they’d be shipped by September. I also had to follow up; there was no proactive outreach from the team. I’ve been emailing and calling customer support since Friday (with absolutely no response on their end) to deal with the issues I’m having. I left a voicemail and have sent 4 emails to get support with my non operational units. This is beyond frustrating. Here’s a breakdown of my issues: One unit sprays water outside the toilet regardless of where I place the sprayer. The other two units do not respond to flushes at all. The devices don’t wake up unless I disconnect the battery and reconnect it every time. I’ve spent hours and hours re-adding the devices to my app, but surprise surprise, this is not successfully resolving the issues. Also, when removing one device from my app, all my devices disappeared from the app for > 3 days. Then, magically, after uninstalling and reinstalling the app 3 times, the devices magically appeared again days later. Lastly, I paid for a shine unlimited membership but it does not show up in my app. Furthermore, when I try to link my account with the shine membership (which is the same account I successfully log into on their website and paid for my device with) it says my account is invalid. The worst part, I can’t even dispute this purchase with my bank because they charged me in June for a product that wasn’t shipped until October. My dispute window has passed (despite having the devices for less than a week) and I now have to hassle with my bank’s escalated dispute process. Shine really needs to step up their customer support, especially around technical issues. I strongly recommend you think twice before buying this product.
