Fitness first Rant

[crimzonsoul]

hi, i'm currently a fitness first member for about 1month and a half, and i would be expecting to be billed by Nov. but I'm planning not to pay for it kay even though i would opt to cancel my membership, I still have to pay for the remaining months ahead. (By d way, good for 4 months ako membership and i paid in cash sa ako pag pamembrship NOT credit card)haha.. I asked them if what would happen to me if I won't gonna pay for the bill, then the manager said nga they would just send to me a demand letter..do u think they can sue my for not paying it?

Mayb it's kinda risky that's why i like to hear from your opinions. any comments are highly appreciated. thanks!hehe

kung naa kay contrata that you have to be a member for atleast 4 months, they can sue you kay naka butang man na sa contract and basically that's how they get their income. If you opt to cancel your membership, siguradoha na you do this before the end of the 4th month kay mura naa man na sila one month notice before terminating your contract.

Naa sad possibility that you can bail out of these. i'm not really sure kung naa nbay nahitabo na gi kaso sa FF kay wa nag bayad sa ilang membership even if they have a contract.

Fitness First auto-debit to your credit card is clearly a SCAM......BEWARE!! They prefer customer to use their credit cards instead of cash. In a competitive world, the key is customer satisfactions...you are only after your customer's money!! Treat your customer well and have them sign-up on their own will with no hidden agenda.

Whoever is from FF employee here (look like Constantine is one), you will very very soon get a knock from the proper authority!!! Hopefully, di na maabtan bag-ong tuig!!

Mao nay usa sa unod sa problema, Bai! Signing up with them is like signing up with the devil! if you signed-up for one-year contract....dili nila ma-process ang pre-termination or cancellation kay mao ni ilang isuwat sa imo Letter of Termination... "Cannot process request, client is within contract" !!! WTF!!!

it will take a walk thru hell to bail out!

Good luck nalang nimo (or nato tingali....)

Regardless if you wait a month before your contract expires or file a cancellation now...pareha ra imo anguish....
The bottomline here, they don't want you to bail-out kay di na sila ka-kwarta nimo. Asa man ka mangahoy anang if one signed for example a 3 or 12 months contract, you still need to take initiative to advise them to cancel your gym membership or else, they will keep on charging you monthly fee way past your contract expirations!! Regadless, if you use credit card or cash...either way, they keep billing you unless you already sign-up the cancellation form. If credit card, the auto debit of these monthly charges will continue from your credit card, if cash and you do not settle them, they will forward your account to an external collection agency to do the collection and mess with your life for being delinquent....

I suggest you prepare a notice of cancellation effective one month after and I'm sure they will not honor it with whatever excuses they can think of...again, pareha ra imong anguish as you need to do the same before or after your 1 year contract ends...

I met with the DTI Provincial Director and also, provided necessary copy to the Credit Card company....let's see what happen.

I already told those dumbasses if they continue to refuse to manage my cancellation request, I will see to it that the proper authorities are alerted with their dubious marketing and knock these idiots!!! I am also in contact with banking authorities to make sure that credit card companies are not in connivance with these idiots!!!

This is just the initial move...got to STOP THIS MADNESS!!!
