Mine seems pretty accurate. I'm a handful (lol) and it sits nicely under the band of my bra. I get readings close to the MFP estimates. I have Polar FT4

It also depends on what HRM you have... some give crazy calorie counts!

I personally have never had an issue with my bra and HRM strap.. but then again, I'm only a B cup.

I also don't put it flush up against the underside of my bra... I leave a little gap between the bottom of the bra and the strap that seems to help. Also make sure its tight enough, the sensors are wet enough, etc.

I haven't had any issues just yet. I am a C cup and wear a sports bra so I just tuck the sensor under the bra and the bra actually keeps it in place.
