Joined during their promotion to turn in your fob from another gym and they waive some fees.  I did that, turning in my fob from a larger gym just down the street.  Less amenities but not as crowded.  Class schedules were limited but I figured it was just because they were under new management and didn't have a lot of members.  Probably would have given it a 4 at that stage.  \n\nFound out less than a month after signing up that I was assigned to an project that took me out of state every week.  Went in to cancel, understanding that I had to give 30 days, but was told I couldn't cancel without a manager and there wasn't a manager on site and that only Managers had access to the cancellation form - I supposed so they can try and talk me out of canceling.  I asked when a manager would be in and rearranged my schedule to return.  Guess what, no manager.  Now another week has gone by and the 30 days notice is still required.  I agreed to try one more time and still no manager.  At this stage I wasn't sure a manager even existed.  On the third attempt and 16 days after I first attempted to cancel, I told the front desk that I was unacceptable that they weren't letting me cancel and wrote out my own cancellation notice and left it with her.  \n\nAnd then the collection calls started.  I explained and explained but no one cared.  I went to the location again and on the 5 attempt, stumbled upon a manager.  She told me I couldn't cancel with a past due.  I explained my problem.  She said sorry.  I paid for the additional month that I owed as part of my 30 days notice. I'm not trying to cheat them, just have them follow their end of the contract.  I refuse to pay the rest,  Let them report to a credit agency.  They will get more bad press than just this post.  Ask them to give you the cancellation form when you sign up.  At least you'll be prepared in the event you decide to cancel.  Too bad because I'd have re-joined after my project ended, but have gone back to my original gym.
