*** *** visited our Crunch Fitness gym located at WBroad Street, Richmond, VA on Friday, November 11, where she then signed a contract for a six month personal training session with one of our personal trainersUpon receiving the confirmation email, after she had left our
establishment, she misread the contract stating that the sessions were valid for up to months and had mistakenly thought she had signed up for a month contractWhen she called our gym, both our general manager and fitness director explained it to her and said we would reimburse her the monies if she still wanted to cancel the personal training contract.Our general manager and fitness director both communicated with Ms*** through email messages and on December 12, 2016, our general manager received an email from Ms*** thanking him for putting the monies back into her account.We consider the matter resolvedPlease notify us of any need for further action.Sincerely,JD W***Chief Financial Officer

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the offer and/or response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below
There was no offer given besides the fact that I did cancel membership before I took any type of classIn which, I was told by crunch that I cant get my money back, instead they will give me free classes......I dont need or want free classesThis took away from my childrens christmas, left me indebtA big inconvenience and worrisome holiday

*** *** came to us attempting to cancel her personal training packageWhen unable to provide the correct documentation for a cancellation she requested a downgrade on her contractWe explained to her the contracts once in place cannot be downgraded due to liability issues for the specific
plan she was requesting. *** was informed of the policies when she signed up for her contractWe do not change contracts after they have been signedThere is never a time when we downgrade the contracts since they are bound by the agreement signedThe only ways to cancel or freeze the contract is by opting out within the first * days of signing the contract, a medical note stating they are physically incapable of continuing their training sessions, moving outside of a **-mile radius from the training location, military deployment, or if the gym relocates and can not offer a facility within * miles of the old location. We tried to accommodate *** by issuing a ** day freeze, starting *** ** ***, on her training accountOutside of this, she can buy out her contract or she can "bank" her sessions for later use
