Horrible, they’ll rake your money and won’t refund
Horrible. We logged in one time and the camera wouldn’t pick up anything so we couldn’t even do the training . I thought I effectively cancelled only to find out I apparently had duplicate accounts and they charged me $16.99 a month for over a year after I cancelled. Cancelling is a pain and they don’t refund anything over 30 days

We’re really sorry for the frustration you experienced. From what you described, a second Membership may have been created under a different email. Only the account holder can create an additional Membership; Dribbleup cannot do this on your behalf.
You can view, manage, or cancel anytime at account.dribbleup.com. Our team is happy to review the situation and help make it right. Please reach out at hello@dribbleup.com so we can assist.
Wanted me to pay in full to get the promo
I tried purchasing the DU using my promo code. When I went to check out, it said the code had expired. But I still have 2 days and 20 hours left. I contacted DU and was told they could not issue me a new code. I needed to buy the product first and then call back and they’d issue me a refund. Seems odd that they can’t generate a new code and I’d need to pay them in full for the hopes that when I call back in people will give it to me later .

Hi there,
Thanks for sharing your feedback and we’re really sorry for the frustration you experienced with the promo code. We understand how it can feel confusing or inconvenient to complete a purchase without seeing the discount applied upfront.
Unfortunately, we don’t have another way to apply the discount at this time. The only option currently available is to process it as a refund after the purchase is completed.
We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Your experience has been shared with our team to help improve the process moving forward.
Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review.

Excellent customer service
Excellent customer service. I purchased the soccer ball and subscription. My young granddaughter loved it and my daughter agreed that is was a great tutorial but when my granddaughter got bored, I canceled the subscription. The process was very easy to do.

Love the ball and love the training app
We got the ball after some issues with delivery - for which they sent a replacement ball and now they are sending a return label for the replacement once it arrives since the original ball has been found and delivered by the delivery company they used (thanks, Canada Post). DribbleUp’s customer service and support and the kindness and professionalism of their staff are spectacular. We were well aware of the subscription portion of the purchase as it is outlined in their purchase agreement, highlighted on the payment page, and reminded of in their shipping and delivery emails. My kids started training with it and have been so engaged and so impressed with both the drills and the live coaching sessions. My daughter’s footwork has already noticeably improved! Highly recommend this product and the training app and program it comes with.

This was purchased as a gift for my grandson.I just realized they are charging me for a subscription monthly. The box had absolutely nothing in it to activate or know how to use it. Now he would like to begin using it and come to find out he never had anything telling him how to use it! Reputable companies do not do business like this!
DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!

This company is criminal
This company is criminal. I purchased a Christmas gift & now I'm being charged $20/month. They have a link to stop payment but they charge $14. I sent them a letter to stop charging me, the letter was returned because the address does not exist!

So far I am pleased with the product
So far I am pleased with the product. I was aware that I had to pay for a membership as it was mentioned during the checkout process. That can add up overtime so I don't plan on keeping it long term. I just wanted my son to get some practice before joining a league as he has never played soccer before.

Thanks for sharing! We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying the product and that your son is getting in some practice before joining a league. That’s exactly what the Smart Soccer Ball is made for. And yes, the All-Access Membership is required with purchase, but it’s totally up to you how long you keep it. We’re here to support his progress for as long as you need us!
Charged for a Subscription I Never Signed Up For
Just did my taxes and saw a dozen high charges from DribbleUp I never authorized or even noticed until now. The ball was a gift. A physical product. At no point did I knowingly sign up for a subscription—and definitely not one worth hundreds of dollars over time.
They found a way to quietly pull money from my account for months without my knowledge. No warning, no meaningful notification, and no use on my end. Not once. Just steady billing, hidden in the background.
I feel taken advantage of. The charges were high, and the fact that it went this long without any clear consent or communication is unacceptable. Watch your accounts closely—this felt like a trap.

I bought it as a gift from my nephew and my niece, but I didn't know I was being charged with the membership. When you purchase the dribble products your automatically start upon receivement. Even though you're buying it for a gift. Please keep that in mind when you're purchasing dribble up products.

Lack of Clear Product Details Led to Frustration
I recently purchased a Smart Basketball and a Smart Soccer Ball from Dribbleup. Before ordering, I saw several online reviews and even a news article that mentioned a stand being included with the Smart Soccer Ball. Upon receiving my order, neither ball came with a stand. When I contacted customer service, I was initially told by "Ellaine" that stands were never included with these products. This was demonstrably false based on my research. It took multiple emails and providing evidence before they acknowledged that the inclusions had changed. While they eventually offered a discount on purchasing the stands separately, the initial misinformation and the lack of clear, current information on their website regarding product inclusions was a significant disappointment. This experience required considerable effort on my part to clarify and resolve. Potential customers should be cautious and verify directly with customer service what is currently included with their order, as the website and older reviews may not be accurate.

Hi Ayman,
We’re sorry to hear about the confusion and frustration around what’s included with your order, and we appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback.
You’re absolutely right that some of our past product bundles included stands, and we’ve since made updates to our offerings. We apologize that this wasn’t clearly communicated upfront and that it took multiple emails to get clarity. That’s not the experience we aim to provide.
We’re actively working to improve how product details and inclusions are shared on our website to help avoid this kind of confusion in the future.
If you have any remaining concerns or need additional support, our team is always here to help at hello@dribbleup.com. Thanks again for bringing this to our attention.

Very frustrating company to deal with
Ordered this for my son for Christmas as a basketball. The ball is very hard to dribble compared to a regular basketball, making the drills kind of pointless. The recurring monthly charge is very high, and they automatically sign you up for it the second you buy the thing. When you try to follow their directions in their emails, the pages the links take you to aren't correct. They're also rude, and super frustrating to work with.

Not worth the outrageous price of the membership. Ball tracking is terrible and the app is poorly designed not or easy to use or good. The skill leveling more than rec soccer. Haven’t seen any imporvement. Signed up thinking I was getting a year membership and got charged the next month. Don’t waste your money. Oh and the ball feel cheap and waste of $99! Stupid subscription based platform aimed at scamming their customers.

Deceptive Billing
My wife purchased the soccer ball for my nephew over 3 years ago. She had no idea she signed up for recurring monthly charges. Finally, she canceled after I brought this to her attention. No need to hear a response from this company about how they make it clear and up front. As you can see from many reviews, this is a common deception reported by a multitude of duped customers.
