    Default stupid gym wants my money!!

    Ughhh...I used to have a membership to this small ghetto gym but had to cancel since I moved to another part of Indy. I signed a contract that said I had to stay with them for two years unless I showed proof of a change of my address that's a certain number of miles away. I did all that back in August. I had to pay a $50 cancellation fee, and an extra month's worth (I was paying $25 month to month). I had to pay the extra month's worth because of a 30 day notification policy.
    Soooo.....I get a bill from them a few days ago saying I owe for the last few months!!! I just got off the phone with the asshole and he said he was unable to find any record of my having cancelled. He asked if I had a receipt and I said no, they gave me a receipt that you could barely read, the ink was soooo faded on it when they gave it to me. I am not going to pay $75 again for THEIR FUCK UP. What do I do? Will they send it to collections? He told me to call AGAIN on Monday to see if he could take care of it for me. That will be my third time calling. Should I ask for a copy of the contract that has my signature on it? This is really pissing me the fuck off. I know it's only $75 bucks that's still money I shouldn't have to pay!!!!!!!! any advice on this please??!

    if it's a ghetto smaller gym and not a chain, chances are they won't report it. I wouldn't respond to that. They'll likely never really pesue it. if they call again, don't answer. And you can return their mail, unoppened....

    um, that's just my opinion tho....

    What lola says


    I was pissed they raised my Bally's membership from $96 a year to $125!!!!

    10 bucks a month is still a steal deal but I'm slightly annoyed at the principle.

    Nope! I paid by cash every month. I should have read the damn thing before I signed. The guy who was giving me the "tour" of the gym was basically breathing down my neck when I signed it. It was like 2 pages long and i didn't get a chance to read it. I should have asked to take it home with me first to read. I didn't realized the whole 2 year thing. I was with them for about a year.

    So yeah....if on Monday they still insist I owe, I may just say "FUCK YOU!, I ain't payin'!" I want to see tho if they even still have the contract with my signature on it. It's such a ghetto gym, where their equipment sucked, most of the time they always had some "out of order" sign on it. The guy on the phone said he had to call "The Company" to see what they said. I don't know what that's about cuz it's not a chain or anything.

    Oh did I forget to mention how difficult it was to even cancel it back in August? They were so rude about it and not wanting to let me cancel even tho I had the proof of address thing. That's why it's pissing me off that they're treating me like this AGAIN.

    Well, if you can prove when you moved, you can get out of the hole there. It may take some arm twisting and all, but you'll get out.

    You may want to threaten reporting them to the Better Business Bureau usually that shuts businesses up.
