[To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, you must give us a reason why you are rejecting the responseIf no reason is received your complaint will be closed as Answered] Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because This is just not right that they cannot find the documentation to support this and we trusted them to honor our request to cancel the membershipYes I guess it is partly my fault for not monitoring my bank account more closely but I had no need to look for a gym membership because we cancelled itBut I am positive we cancelled the membership in JanuaryI am still looking for the paperwork on the membership closure and I may not find it since it has been a year agoI think remembering it was a yellow paper should tell them something, that yes we did fill out the cancellation paperWe moved out of the area shortly after [redacted] 's surgeryWe had no idea if you could transfer a membership so our option was to cancelYou would also think that the records of [redacted] NOT being there for many months would send up a flag and contact us for a reason why we were not using the services to see if we were happy or notWe have not received a call from MrT [redacted] to date to resolve this issue Regards, [redacted]

I have reviewed the information in Ms [redacted] complaint Planet Fitness does not take any complaint lightly I have communicated with the staff at the Milwaukee-Downtown, WI location in order to better understand the situation As Ms*** requested, her membership has been cancelled Her payment for the month of November will be refunded once it has been confirmed to have been processed She will receive a check in the mail at the address listed on the original complaint It may take up to two weeks following confirmation of the processed payment I hope that this resolves the situation and that Ms*** is satisfied Have a great day!

I apologize for any inconvenience that our member has encountered due to this issueAll of are members are valued participants within our teamAs of today the member is still within a commitment with us and as it states in his agreement, "If your membership has a minimum commitment, and you wish to cancel your membership early a $(plus tax) Buy Out fee is required with your cancellation." Also stated in the signed agreement, " Your account below will be billed on or around the 17th of each month beginning on Sept 17th for $per month or until you cancel in accordance with this agreement." Currently the membership is still active and in good standingWe strive to provide our members and potential members with very honest and upfront pricing and policiesIn the agreement also is our cancellation policy, " To cancel your monthly membership and stop the monthly billing on the 17th of the month, the club requires written notification by the 10th of the month delivered to the club in person or preferably via certified mail." To date the requirements have not been met for us to cancel the membership being the reason for his continued chargesAttached is Mr [redacted] ' membership agreementFeel free to contact me for any other info

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because:First of all my mother was not rude with Nicole on the phone and made no such threatsIt was Nicole who so unprofessionally told us she had to leave because she no longer wished to speak with us on the phoneAs for the continued lies about trying to contact me, I received no letter in the mail until December 5th, and it was dated November 29, we called Nicole on December 6th We received no phone call until AFTER we called and spoke to Nicole, such convenient timingI called [redacted] and found that they just continued to try and take money from my account during the supposed "grace period" you get to make up the payment, rather than contacting me to let me know there was even an issueIt is very sad to see a business run so poorly and with such disregard for the customer base Regards, [redacted] **

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below Thank you for the response by equipment managerI accept the apologyHis word is reasonable regarding to the agreement on annual feeHowever, I am still very unhappy with the attitude of the manager at Planet Fitness Ithaca local office (The Shops at Ithaca Mall, Catherwood Road, Ithaca, NY, 14850)I don't know her name, but I know she is the one who deal with Ithaca Planet Fitness membership, and is in a higher levelShe is at her 50sShe was very rude to me at that time when I come to negotiate with her about the annual feeAll I want is just a nice attitude and a "sorry" for not making this clear to her clientsHowever, she behaved badly and show no respect to us (her customers)She didn't want to explain anything and didn't even want to listen to our explanationShe kept yelling to us at that timeShe even asked us to get out of her store To a big fitness center as Planet Fitness Center, I don't think you should hire this kind of manager, who would only expel your customers and let them never go to any Planet Fitness center any more (That's the original sentence after I talk with another local Planet fitness center member after she also be treated like this)I hope you could have some punishment on that manager, or just let her write an apology letter to me by herself Thank you Regards, [redacted] ***

Revdex.com: I have reviewed the offer and/or response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted] , and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.The business is not addressing the issue what so everI cancelled my account via the phoneThen months later they tell me it isn't possible to do it that wayI will not accept responsibility of charges on my account because an employee at Planet fitness was not trained properly on how to cancel accountsTo my knowledge my account had been cancelledWhich is why I never checked into the gym since I knew I no longer held a membershipI put a stop payment when I realized they were drafting from my account after I had cancelledWhen I decided to start a new membership, they informed me I had never cancelled and I had this outstanding balanceThey told me nothing was their fault and that they had sent the bill to a collections agencyThey offered no sort of apology for what they had done and ended up hanging up the phone on meThey have lied several times when I had called in the past and told me that because they have no notes on their computer system about my phone call that it didn't actually ever happenObviously when its a complaint the employees just decide not to document the phone call at allThey owe me the money that they illegally drafted from my account, and I expect the "bill" be wiped out of the collections agency immediately with no traces of that on my credit score Regards, [redacted]

The member did not pay an “annual fee” when she signed up she paid the “enrollment fee.” As far as the billing days after signing up, we are billing for the upcoming month, so she actually received free daysWith the enrollment fee changing we do run promotions that can be done at any time The member pays whatever the enrollment fee is for the day that they come inEven if we start a promotion the next day the member was still charged correctly for the day that they came inThe annual fee that the member did pay is clearly outlined and explained in the members agreement, and by the staff member that signs them upThis fee is annual and does happen once a year, but is not another enrollment fee, or a renewal feeThis fee goes toward upkeep of the club, and new equipment, and allows us to make sure we can provide our members with all of the luxuries and new equipment without having to charge the $or $monthly dues of other clubsMost health clubs have this annual fee now for this reasonThis also guarantees that the members monthly dues will not increaseAll of this being said this member was never charged incorrectly, and every fee and charge is clearly outlined in the agreement that the member signed and stated that she fully understoodWe also give every member a copy of this agreement so that they have all of this information for reference at any timeI did get a chance to speak with the member today and went over all of this informationShe seemed to understand what everything is now, but was still upset about having to pay the annual feeI do want to point out that the bank information we have in the system for this member is incorrect, so this member has not actually been charged anything yetAfter speaking with her and having her tell me her opinion of Planet fitness and myself I decided to waive all fee and charges, even though they were correct and she did owe them, and just cancelled her outI did this to avoid another possible situation in the club if she had to go back to cancel out the membership

Attached is a copy of Mr [redacted] agreementThe agreement states that on 1/08/Mr [redacted] signed up for the monthly membershipThis gives him access to the home gym and trainer onlyWhile a member at Hilliard, Ohio the member tried to bring in a guest on 03/04/He was informed then that he did not have the black card membership and could not bring a guest inHe was told to have a guest he would have to convert to the black card membership or have his guest join on his own monthly membership He also tried to get the manager to alter the stafee for the monthly membership which he was also told we could not doThe member left on 03/04/without his membership being converted to a black card membership and without his guest signing upThen the member transferred to the West Broad, Planet Fitness and again tried to bring in guests with the monthly membershipHe also tried to let his friends use his scan card to come in and use the facilityWhen one of the employees working at the Planet Fitness off West Broad stopped him to tell him he could not bring in guests, he started using profanity and calling the employee namesUnfortunately Mr [redacted] violated the terms of the agreement by trying to give his scan card to others to use and by using profanity toward the employees when told he could not have a guestThe membership was cancelled on 07/07/Thank you, Victoria L.Club ManagerRoberts RdHilliard, Ohio 43026Phone: [redacted] Fax: [redacted]

I have been a member of this gym on and off for yearsI honestly choose to go through the night or early in the morning (before 1st shift arrives) because first shift is extremely rudeThe manager (?? the guy who wears the black shirt durring the day) is so incredibly rude and unprofessional, I am just baffled by their behaviorThey really need to change their motto because every time I walk in there durring the day, that's all I feel is judgementI feel like if they had better management the employees, who are also mostly rude and judgemental, would follow suit This isn't a new occurrence, I've felt this way since I thought they were getting better, and there are some of the employees who are so nice and accepting, but there are still quite a few nasty ones that shouldn't be working with the public at all
