Please complain about this place to ACCC

published

I've been charged direct debit fees on days they are not supposed to charge and if I don't have enough money in my account, which I always try to on the ACTUAL direct debit day, I am charged a hefty payment of $21. Customer service is useless and hopeless and can never help always insisting my account is paid for only to be charged the hefty unpaid account fees payment a few days later.
Are they doing this on purpose? Have never joined any place with such hefty charges and useless customer service reps.
After reading other reviews we really need to start reporting to ACCC to stop this dodgy business and it's ways.

Owner has a problem...CHEAP!

published

The whole chain is generic with No top notch American equipment. At least the other gyms that are not US standard have Hammer Strength/Life Fitness. ZERO professionals at this place. Cheap product/Cheap employees = What you get. Cheap.

3 years after ceasing membership they start direct debits

published

I have not been a member of this gym for over 3 years and getting out of that was an ordeal at the time.
They make it hard to contact to them and then are less than friendly when you do.
So in July 2022 have noticed 2 random direct debits a fortnight apart, on my bank statement. I have not re- joined this gym. I have sent them an email to stop this and refund the relevant amount... they are yet to respond.
If this doesn't happen will be happy to take it further with relevant agencies that support the ripped off customer.

Dodgy scammers that keep your bank records and withdraw randomly at a later date.

published

8 months after I cancelled my membership they started taking money again from my account. The front desk referred it to a glitch in the system and referred me to the managers email. He replied saying I never handed in written cancellation. Fit n fast St. Peter’s are a fraud.

Absolute thieves.

published

I joined the Campbelltown outlet 5 years ago and after being stung with ‘upkeep’ fees at random times and a refusal to explain properly how this occurs or what upkeep I’m paying for, I had my bank block all their transactions and never went back.

Fast forward to today 16/7/19 and I’ve been charged for using a gym I haven’t set foot in in 5 years because they were stealing from me to begin with. Do not sign up with this fraudulent company.

The worst gym experience

published

Would warn against anyone joining one 0f these gyms. My bad experience was with the one at Burwood but it was concerning inflexible, unfair rip off policies which were blamed on uncontrollable company policy from above.....so, would warn against dealing with the chain at all, anywhere

same story everyone else has with this gym

published

12 month contract expired, they kept charging me.

Now they won't cancel my subscription and continue to charge me. I've contacted head office and the management team and still nothing. It's been 2 months since the subscription ended. The ACCC can take them to court now.

Been going to burwood gym for over 7 years. Use to be good now they have changed it way to small and the equipment is old no new equipment. I also needed a new swope to get in and they charged me 20 dollars. The swipe card i had was over 4 years old and didnt work. Only need the card cause there is no staff there half of the time. There aircon keeps breaking down and the toilet stinks

Absolutely disgusting staff at head office

'Contracts-commitment'

published

Typical cautionary tale.

Signed up for a 12 month term, with the lady short signed me up saying that after that period the membership would cease.
Now I mainly went at night due to work hours, so after the set period expired I assumed as I was told the membership would expire and no longer pay (the whole reason I paid more for this set time period)

Fast forward to finding out that after the set contract expired the payments kept going as it just simply renewed to a fortnightly membership.

Typical, do not go to this gym or any that auto.atically withdraws funds from your accounts

Do you have to pay a ‘holding deposit’ to have an orange electronic key to get in 24hrs? If so, how much and do you get your money back when you return it on leaving the gym for whatever reason?

Thanks

Did anyone else lose yoga / Pilates access when they changed the five dock club? I was told because I was an existing member that I would be able to upgrade for an extra $5. Now I'm being told this is not the case and they want me to pay an extra $12 a week. Also the customer service manager at head office is very rude and unprofessional. I wish I'd stayed with fitness first

Yes I agree, the only reason I joined Five Dock was for the Pilates and Yoga. Now they want to increase my membership to cover the once included classes! How is it not breach of contract if the club changes its mind, but most certainly as a member we would not be allowed to pull out if we changed our mind! Also when I asked on numerous occasions, the staff were not helpful or interested.

Yes me too! Very disappointing and now they won't even give me a trial yoga class for free as they do many other yoga studios.
