Anytime Fitness

I attempted to research ***'s account, however, I was unable to find his account in any of our clubs. His account is at the Rigby, Idaho club, and I am not able to access any of his account information. If the charges were for a secondary member, I will need the secondary member's
name and account number to research whether we were charging his account. If he could provide this information, I can determine whether the secondary member is a member at one of our clubs, and whether we charged him for this membership

NOVEMBER 4, Revdex.com Albuquerque, NM Dear Revdex.com, Member's initial agreement ended in July However; member did agree to the auto renewal program in order to have continued access to the facility, which made member a "month to month' member and responsible for those "month to month"
duesFor the cancellation to take effect in July, member was obligated to give us a "day" written cancellation notice and would be responsible for any charges during that period per the cancellation policy on the agreement Member did not give us written notice at that time.Member continued to use the facility even AFTER her claim of cancellation in July records indicate member used the facility on 8/7/at 1:PM and again on 8,/10/at .10:AM, Member could have easily given -written notice and payed any dues at that time to the ManagerAlso, between 8/30/and 10/18/16, a total of calls were made with voicemails left and letters sent to the member by the billing companyOn 1.0/18/16, the member called the billing company regarding cancellationThe billing company informed member of the policy including notice required and payments needed.She did give our billing company a written cancellation notice and the billing company responded to the member, via email on 10/21/16, the following: Our records indicate that your account is activePlease provide documentation that your account was previously cancelledOnce this is received we will be able to research this matter furtherOtherwise, Your account has been set to cancel per the terms of your agreementYou are responsible for a day written request (this has been fulfilled via your email) and any payments that are past due or fall within that: time periodYour final payment is due on 10/29/You are also responsible for theAugust and September paymentsYou will have club access until 11/28/ The terms of the agreement stipulate thatthe account must be current before cancellation will take effectThe service fees and late fees were waived and the final bill was sent to the address on file by billing companyIf member was willing to pay via telephone or in person, this matter would be resolved in a more timely mannerThe billing company has made further attempts to contact member again and left messages on 10/28/and 11/02/with no response to date.Warm regards, Shannon G***/Owner

To Whom it May Concern:We have received the following complaint (#***) from *** ***, the father of a past member*** *** bought out of her agreement on the 21st of October 2016, which relieved her of any more monthly paymentsWe sent in the request for the cancellation, and her
monthly membership payments stopped*** also had personal training, which the person that helped with the cancellation was unaware of/and wasnt brought up, so the personal training payments continued into DecemberThe October 12th paymentof $came before the cancellation happenedThe cancellation of personal training is a day process, so any payment that fell between October 21st and November 21st is a valid charge per the signed agreement, so the November 12thpayment of $is also validThe only payment that went through that shouldnt have was the December 21st payment of $280.We spoke to ***, and apologized for the mistake, and tried to handle this outside of dealing with any kind of disputes so we offered him what we thought was more than fair, a $refund for monthsWe sent in for the refund, and the check was cut and sent, at which point days after the fact we received a credit card dispute for $840, at which point we cancelled the refund check and are in the process of handling the dispute with all of the signed agreements and communication that was sent to *** and her father of trying to rectify the issue.At the end of the day, it was our error that the personal training payment went through in DecemberWe felt very bad about the mistake and tried to make it up to the member by sending a refund for months due to the frustrationWe really wanted to make sure that the member and her father were taken care of, but unfortunately *** did not want to accept our apology or the refund If you need any further proof or anything else, please feelo free to reach out ***Sincerely,Anytime Fitness Narragansett Staf* ***Anytime Fitness Narragansett, RIClub Manager***

Initial Business Response /* (1000, 12, 2015/10/08) */
My name is Brittny *** and I precisely remember signing up *** back in FebruaryHe called me minutes before my shift ended and was upset because he had an appointment at another club but the manager never showed upI invited him to come
on over and that I'd get him startedHe mentioned he was planning on moving in months however we do not offer anything less than months and he did not know where he would be moving at that timeI told him about our mile policy and said I'd be happy to cancel his agreement if his relocation fits the policy - which it did notHis new location was miles away from an Anytime FitnessHe wanted out of his agreement because he moved into an apartment with a gym and no longer wanted the extra expense
We ended up cancelling his agreement - not because we made an exception - but because of his negative experience with personal trainingThat was our mistake as a team and he was right to be upset about itOur switch in staff caused *** to fall through the cracks and that is never our intention
***' account has been taken care of for some time nowWe made things right by cancelling out both agreements and offering his unused sessions at the location closer to his new home

I have been a member of Anytime Fitness in Blandon PA for a few years and recently began going to the Anytime Fitness in West Lawn PAI was told by the owner that the gym does not accept the *** insuranceI called the corporate office and was told by the customer service representative that they allow the owners to decide if they would like to accept the insuranceHowever I was never told this at the time of membership and was under the impression that I could utilize any Anytime Fitness facilityShe said that because I frequented that particular Anytime fitnesss my membership was transferred to that facility thereby making our membership at that facility voidThe owner told me that participating with *** he receives no reimbursement and those members clog up his gymTherefore he wanted me to pay a membership fee along with my *** fee to maintain my membership at his gymAlthough I was told today by the customer service representative that is another gym mem

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because:You're coverage told me that I would not be charged and if I was it would be fully refundedI would not make this up as I am CEO of my own business and have had employees make mistakes, but when they do I pay the priceI honor the word my employees gave to my customers as that is how it works in the business worldI have no desire to be at Anytime Fitness anymore, so giving me access to the gym for the next days is not what I want As I stated I used the funds to open a new membership 2/4/after meeting with your coverage and hearing my membership would be cancelled that day and I wouldn't have to payYour gym doesn't compare to my new gym as of the stair steppers was broken for over a monthWhat are my fees even going to since it clearly isn't maintenance? Maybe your vacationAnyways, you should have to pay for your employees mistakes just like any other business wouldSorry that you were gone at the time and came in and she didn't know what she was talking about but that should be on you, not me

Hi- I have attached the contract that Mr*** signedIf you see the front page under "Auto Renewal Program" you will see that he initialed that this agreement "will automatically renew at the rate indicated below" and that "renewal terms may be cancelled at any time provided a day written notice is delivered the CLUB's address"This explains why he still had payments coming out after the months and why it wasn't cancelled since there was no written noticeThe back of the agreement explains our cancellation policy in more detailStating that you must give days written notice to cancelIt is also written on the front of the agreement again just to make it very clear to the member.Thank you,Quinn M***

After being told my membership would be canceled I noticed they continue to charge me after the date they said it would be canceledAfter calling them I was told I never sign a cancellation form (which I was never told I had to)During the meeting to sign the cancellation forms the new *** *** informed me that shady thing like this were why the old manager was let goSo I assumed it wouldn't be a problem to get my money backI had him print the usage sheet sawing I hadn't used there club in 6months or soI showed him me phone records show I had called times to make sure it would be canceledI have since been informed that my assumption was incorrectThey are refusing to refund months of club fees

I've been trying to cancel my gym membership due to some health concernsI was told I needed a note from my doctor to cancelI discussed thing with my doctor and she agreed that this wasn't the place for meShe in turn wrote a noteI then went in to cancel my membership and I was told the note wasn't acceptable ( even though I asked my doctor twice and she said it was more than enough)I was told then that I need a note that said I was mentally or physically disabledAfter trying to talk to multiple management people I never got any responses or phone callsThe gym finally sent me a survey about how they are doing and I filled it out discussing the problemI did receive a response and was told this time that the note needed to say I was permanently disabledI've now been told three different storiesI also found out that they wrote up an employee over this because the complaint got sent to corporateShe didn't do anything wrong and just advised me to do what I Needed to do t

Revdex.com,
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID *** and have determined that this does not resolve my complaintFor your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below
[To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, we would like to know your view on the matter.]This doesn't address the issue of the advertisement that offered two free months of membership. The advertisement doesn't say anything about what type of membership you purchase only that you will receive two free months membership. This is the resolution I want and will not be happy until I receive this

Upon purchase you were sent the following email explaining this was a PPC campaign

I have no idea what this member is talking about regarding changing the keys? He is in a contract, just like any other contract with a cell phone, lease, etc; there are requirements to break a contract If you move or relocate, you must provide a written days notice, proof of
relocation more then miles from the club and previous address, and $cancellation fee Until everything is received, nothing is processed and the member will continue to be billed Once he provides proof of relocation as the club requested from him and the early cancellation fee, his account will be cancelled Without proof, his account is not cancelled He has stopped payments from processing through his bank, which now leaves his account severly behind The next step that the biling company will do is send his account to collections if his account is not handled All members are given a copy of their commitment when they join and the terms to cancel are written on the contract I will forward you the other emails where we have been corresponding with him since last June, but he refuses to provide proof of relocation Without that, he doesn't qualify for a cancellation Thanks for your help and understanding Please see the next email for copies of the emails to the club We will not be giving him a refund bc we are standing by our end of the agreement and have repeatedly told him what he needs to do to stand up to his end of the agreement Thanks

On June I went to Anytime Fitness to see if it was the right fit for meNathan K*** the owner pressured me into signing the member contract by giving me a month free trial, informing me that if I left I would no longer get the offer he was giving to meI was a year old without a job and wanted to keep such an amazing discountI equally made him aware that I would be going back to school in the Fall and would not require the gym membership anymoreAt the time he told me it was alright and I could cancel at anytime in the futureAfter visitng the gym times in my trial month, I decided the gym was not the right fit for me and I told him I would like to cancelHe told me it was fine and he understands but I got charged the next month and when I spoke to him about it he said my membership could not be canceled and I would have to pay for a whole year regardless of if I go to the gym or not,

I researched *** account Her account was up to date until her April dues payment was scheduled to be paid At this time, the account number on file for her payment was invalid The billing company attempted to contact *** via phone, leaving voice mails, as well as sent
letters to her address on file When a phone call was attempted 4/19, the phone had been disconnected Another letter was sent on May 6, which is the letter *** is referencing When *** accessed the link, it showed her outstanding balance as the current past due amount plus the invoices on her account for membership through 2/5/ Future invoices for membership are posted on accounts as they are on auto-draft However, the amount she owed to become current on her account was *** went into the club and cancelled her membership on May 12, and made a payment of $ That payment covered her April and May dues of each, or a total of and the late fee of and service fee of 9.50, and the remaining amount of $was applied toward her dues for June Her current balance due for June is due on 6/5/ The contract requires cancellation in writing and days notice The contract also states service charges and late fees will be assessed for past due or returned payments I left *** a voice mail this morning explaining her balance due, clarifying it is not $266.64, but is indeed I asked her to call me and I could explain it to her

I reviewed the customer’s account and found that the member had initially signed up at an Anytime Fitness in Tampa, FL and had entered into the specific terms
and conditions of that Franchise ownerSo I could best help resolve this issue for our member, I contacted the Owner of the gym in Tampa regarding his account and to get his original paperworkUpon looking at his paperwork, there was not a clear signature or initials next to the club enhancement/maintenance section therefore not binding the customer to the additional $that was assessed to his account in JuneI have issued the member a refund in the amount of $which is what was requested and as a result he has decided to stay with us a memberThe customer was happy with this outcome, and we were happy that we were able to help him resolve this issue and continue an ongoing relationship with him as a member of our facility
