Gold's Gym

We offer different pricing options throughout the year based on seasonality and promotionsAnytime some comes into the gym to decide which will work best for their needsThe advisement is correct; we never have pricing below $19.99/mo...it is the lowest the pricing of the year even when annualized
with the enrollment fee To be fair to everyone who has paid the full enrollment for the $19.99/mo membership we cannot make a billing adjustment for this one member.Sincerely,Joe H***COO/PartnerGold's Gym VA/WI

I wished to cancel my membership in October 2015, citing that I no longer worked downtown and lived an hour away from the club so I would not be able to use the membershipThey gave me a "freeze" form instead of a cancelation form, noting that the account would not be reactivated until I came back
Now in April my credit card was charged $for the month of AprilI contacted the club and they said the account was only frozen never canceled and is now active againI still do not work downtown and live an hour away so I would still not be able to use the membershipI called to cancel again, but was told that now I have to send in a letter or come in person (not an option)They also said a day cancelation period would be enforcedMy credit card was charged $for April and will now be charged another $for May$total for a membership they knew I would never use again

Revdex.com spoke with the general manager, Thomas ***, who stated that there was an issue with the billing of the account, and confirmed that there was a remaining credit on the customer's account from a previous credit of $on 7/29/He stated that there was a glitch in the system, which he
apologized for, and also stated that unfortunately front desk personnel does not have the account information and is not able to answer questions about billingHe also stated that an additional credit was added to the account for the charge that was made in error, and that the current credit on the account is $60.57, and that the customer will not be charged for membership dues until January

Gold's Gym will be refunding *** *** *** membership ($150.00). The gym has been under
some construction to the roof and the main water line. We have tried to keep as much of the gym
open to members, as much as we can. We have supplied bottled water to the
members. I hope thatMr*** will return to the gym after the construction is over. I will be contacting Mr***
by phone to infom him of his refund
Thank You,

location, permanent medical disability, or military obligationIt also

At this facility, the only person employed here when this complaint was occurring with the name of Chris, was our Personal Training Director, who would not have been the proper contact for member transfer or cancellation. We have gone through all our notes on this complaint which boiled
down to not having the proper documentation in a timely manner to expedite her transfer and reduction of fees for her transfer. The membership has been fully cancelled for her and it appears her fiancé took the proper steps to have his fees reduced last month so he wouldn't be charged for her additionally any longer. We hope this answers your complaint. Lynn B***

The membership was a Hour Fitness that we acquired last June and we honored agreements they hadWe switched software in November and some members were not included and after we identified the problem we corrected the issue and notified the collection agencies

I apologize for the delay, and for the frustrations that our billing process has caused in this caseI have confirmed with my accounts manager that the full refund check of $was mailed out today (5/26/15)*** should receive it in the next few daysAgain, I apologize for the issues with
your training and account, and I assure you that the person in question is no longer employed by Gold's GymPlease let me know if there are any more questions or concerns with the accountThanks!

As stated previously in the first response, the due date has been the same since *** joined. When we attempt to draft and there are no funds available on the date *** committed to pay, *** is assessed a late fee as stated clearly in the contract. This account has a pattern of insufficient funds that would have prevented any issues or late fees. If *** needs to move *** scheduled payment date because of *** income schedule or other reason, *** needs to contact us to do so to prevent further latenesses and fees.Noone changed the payment schedule

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
In June, my fiance was still charged for the membership. It would appear this has not been taken care of, as he is still being charged and has not been refunded. The proper documentation has been provided three times to this Gold's location, starting in January. The people that I have spoke with, both Chris and Wendy said that they would take care of things. It is not my responsibility as a guest at this gym to know who handles what. If Wendy and Chris told me that they would handle the cancellation, then I would believe it is being taken care of. I would have no reason to think otherwiseIf the gym is saying that this has been refunded and the cancellation has been processed, I would like a document showing that (the refund processed and cancellation processed). This has been going on too long to assume it has been completed, as I have been told on numerous occasions it had been taken care of

*** signed up at our club on 6/17/and purchased her personal training on 7/23/In our membership clause, it does state that you can cancel due to moving however on our training agreements, it does notThere is a day cancellation policy for the training however *** was past that
point when she requested the refundWe have attempted to contact *** for the past few weeks in regards to this inquiry but have been unsuccessful each time in reaching herWe are willing to discuss this situation and find a resolution however *** does need to get in touch with someone on our management teamPlease contact Erin M*** @ ***

As I have stated previously, we do not show any record of your cancellationsThe first contact we had from you was in JulyAt that time your account was past due and we do not cancel accounts that are past dueSince that time we have cancelled your membership and waived any amount that was past due

I provided updated card information prior to the billing process and prior to my due date!!! I can not predict my card information being stolen and make arrangements days prior! I resolved the issue as soon as I could and am not to blame for their slow system and incompetent staff!
