I received my pebble 2 on 6th November, 2016 but i doubt if my account was debited. I updated my credit card around February, 2017. So that you can effect the debit, because the one i applied with had expired December last year. I am still waiting for my account to be debited $114.

@all Pebble backers, who did not receive a refund:
#####################################################
A guy from Germany (www.twitter.com/ConLuegering) also supported Pebble and did not receive a pebble nor any refund. He has written a document with the basic details about this campaign, potential solutions on how to get your refund and has set up a questionnaire for all backers for statistics, he regularly posts on his twitter channel.
He cannot post this information to the Kickstarter comments section anymore, since he is no longer a backer and received his refund (If you are not a backer, you cannot post comments here).
This is the link to the document which states history of the campaign, the takeover from Fitbit and actions to take for (hopefully) getting a refund: https://goo.gl/AmlWGB18.
This link will lead you to the questionnaire (might take 5-8 minutes of your time): https://goo.gl/forms/zZLy6plVDbEDmUPo129 All questions in the questionnaire are optional. He does not ask for confidential data or private data (except the city/state you live in).

@Eddie Tay Can you send me in the right direction please? Kickstarter support told me that they are sorry and all the eligible refunds were already processed! NO help from them at all. After the 2nd campaign with no refunds I am completely done with Kickstarter :(
Managed to get my cheque too. Hopefully i can cash in without problem.
Check out this link with detailed instruction to get your refund. I waited for about 6 months, well other than wait, ehat else can you do right? All the best guess.
I’ve received a mail from Ms Christina Karma stating that my refund has been processed and my cheque has been mailed to me on 22 Sep 2017. Now let’s see if I receive it, although they haven’t given any tracking no.
This is clearly a scam as this proof of claims is no more applicable now as stated in a mail to some user on 17 May, 2017:
Please note that additional information in accordance with the Assignment proof of claim process may be required by the Assignee to review your claim. Upon submitting an email to kickstarter@pebble.com, Assignee will provide any such additional and necessary forms and instructions. The deadline for submitting a claim is June 5, 2017, i.e. 180 days from the date of the Assignment, as stipulated under California law.
Dear Pebble .. the world misses you !! I have my Pebble 2 and love it .. my wife also enjoys hers .. we are really happy to have received our watches and wanted to express that we're sorry to hear that the company sold out to 'the big guys' .. we believe that you and your products would have been the next 'Apple' of the tech world, as your wearables are performing flawlessly !!! We're hoping for a resurgence at some point in the future !! Long Live Pebble !!
Seems like everyone got the same response about them sending checks or wire-transfer. Then after a reply, they suddenly "vanish". They did plan to send me a check at first, then when I complained about why no response for a month, they mentioned that the check wasn't the best option, so they consulted with staff to review the refunds. Then went back to check and disappeared.
I CC'd kickstarter@pebble as well as the the company that the person in charge with handling us. I'm sick of them stalling this issue without having any results.
The common response they would give us is "many international backers" then giving fake hope to resolve our problem by giving us options to get the checks via mail or wire transfer.
No news from kickstarter and fitbit, i shared my experience to my fren and family. DO NOT buy any prod from kicstarter, coz they wont secure your rights and money as well. please share to avoid next victim
I too received a mail stating that they'll be refunding me in the form of cheque to which I replied that going to very expensive for me to in cash a US cheque hence please refund via directly credited my account or send the refund back to my credit card. Since then I haven't heard anything for them �
I just got contacted about getting a refund. They want to send me a check for the amount. In my country (Sweden) cashing a US check can be expensive since it has to be sent back to the US for validation. What is the situation in other non-US countries?
It's almost a year since I've backed this. I've been waiting for my refunds since last December and still waiting, sending emails to kickstarters etc with no reply.
Until about a month ago, I sent a query to Fitbit in Twitter, they replied and tell me to send an email at kickstarter@pebble.com as that email is for this kind of situation, and so I did. Fortunately I did receive a reply responsible for Pebble's creditor. However, it may take them weeks to a month for reply since there are a lot of people emailing to them as well. (Thousands of backers). I'll let you know if I get refunded. At least this is making me look forward and being optimistic towards the problem more.
Finally, I've got a mail from "Representative, Pebble Tech(assignment for the benefit of creditors), LLC" - "Due to the volume of responses, please allow 5-7 weeks for processing and review.".
@饒澤華 Fitbit's behavior and lack of honesty/accountability is why I'm boycotting them, too. These are the same people who bought out "Coin" and look where that went (hint: down like the Fitbit stock price). Karma?
@Woravit Nope, not at all. I've sent a "Proof of Claim" document via Airmail and an e-mail to Kickstarer/Pebble/Fitbit but nothing helps. How wonderful modern scam is!
Was promised refund in November, still have not received refund or pledge. Sent a detailed email to kickstarter@pebble.com and cc'd support@kickstarter.com, hoping for a resolution to this.
