I received defective hearing aids
Update: I have now received shipping reimbursement. The issue is customer service. Unfortunately I don't feel I can upgrade this review because it took a bad review on Trustpilot to get action from Vivtone. If Cindy is the only support person that actually knows how their system should work, it is time for retraining of all other employees. I received defective hearing aids. They squelched painfully in my ear. I did return them and did receive a credit for the product. They did not refund my shipping expense. I was told by Cindy (probably AI) after returning, that they offer a shipping label for returns and I had to include a photo of the defect. No shipping label was ever offered in the 3 weeks of conversation. Please, someone tell me how to take a picture of a squelch! Absolutely ridiculous. Customers beware of this company.
Response from Vivtone Hearing AidsOct 15, 2026
Update: Thank you so much for your update and confirmation that the shipping reimbursement was received. We noticed there was an extra processing fee deducted from your shipping refund, and we have already sent you a separate transfer to cover this fee. Could you please reply to our email once you receive this payment? We are revising our support process to respond faster for all customers. Feel free to reach us at [email protected] or 833-938-1277 if you have any concerns. Hi Janet, We want to sincerely apologize for the poor communication from our team. You are absolutely right — the painful squelching noise from the hearing aid is a sound issue, and it is impossible to take a photo to capture this problem. We acknowledge that during your 3 weeks of back-and-forth emails and calls, our team did not clearly explain the return process or offer a prepaid shipping label in advance. This was our mistake, and we deeply regret the frustration this caused you. Our support team has been in regular contact with you via email since you raised this issue and has already offered to refund the delivery charges to you, so that your issue can be resolved as soon as possible. We deeply regret all the stress this situation has created for you. Should you have any other concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to us anytime. Best regards, Customer Support Team
