      I joined 24 hour fitness in January 2025. I requested a personal trainer for 3 months. My 3 months ended March 2025. On April 9th my card was charged $208 I reached out to 24 hour fitness and I was told a manager will return my call and that a note was entered in the system for my card not to charge. No manager never called me back so I called the bank and dispute the transaction I was given provisional credit until I can provide proof that my card was charged against my will. May 2025 my card was charged $208 again I called 24 hour several times and was told a manager will call me back knowing what happened in April I knew no manager was going to call me back. I went to 24 hour to dispute the transaction and I was shown a refund for $200 which was for may. The bank took back the provisional credit that they granted me due to the gym not giving me the proper documents to take to the bank. On May 13th I took off work to rectify the problem I called the ** **** and spoke with him and he said to give him a few days he is working with his other partners to refund me my money. I texted **** on May 20th to follow up on my refunds and got no response. Im owed $208 for April, $8 for May, $50 for the cancelation fee that they charged me thats not on the site or was told to me when I signed up and the $104 for the 2 remaining sessions im owed i have text to the trainer that I reached out to him on April 9th to remind him I still have 2 more sessions. I was also charged the monthly fee for May and was not able to go because the cops was called.

      I am filing this complaint against 24 Hour Fitness for deceptive and unethical business practices that targeted me while I was seriously ill and ************* February 2024, I suffered a major heart attack and underwent open-heart surgery involving multiple bypasses. After an 11-day hospital stay, I was moved to a skilled nursing facility, where my condition worsened. I lost over 40 pounds, dropping to 85 lbs at 58a life-threatening level. I was later hospitalized again for nearly a month and was unable to walk for six months. Only recently have I regained the ability to leave the house alone.On March 18, 2024, during my initial recovery, my son contacted 24 Hour Fitness on my behalf to renew and suspend my annual membership due to medical reasons. He was told the membership would be suspended and paid the $49 annual fee to renew for another year so I would not have to worry about paying it when I am able to start exercising again. We were assured I could reactivate it once I ************* that Im finally well enough to return, I contacted the gymonly to be told the membership had been cancelled, not suspended. This is completely unacceptable. The company took payment under false pretenses and revoked the service without notice. This feels like fraud and exploitation of a medically incapacitated, elderly person.I am requesting that my membership be reinstated immediately under the original terms, with the $49 annual fee honored, and the next renewal due in 2026 and beyond. This is the least the company can do to correct this harmful situation.

      The membership was placed on freeze as requested on 03/18/2024 at 11:19 AM due to medical issues.  A freeze confirmation was emailed to ******************* describing the terms and conditions of the freeze.  The freeze was a six-month medical freeze as described in the freeze confirmation.  The membership came off freeze on 09/18/2024, just as described in the freeze confirmation.  The membership was cancelled due to lack of payment on 12/22/2024.  Due to the circumstances, we have submitted a request to have the membership reinstated as a onetime customer service gesture.  You will be emailed when the membership has been reinstated.

      December 6th of ever year since 1983 membership fees paid..$99.00 a year wrongfully terminated and refusel to reinstate my membership. No late notice or any notice of any kind until 3 months supposedly past due I get a termination email.. interesting that they had my contact information but waited 3 months to contact me...I have been a member for over 40 years. Where's the customer loyalty factor in this..are there other cases of this happening? Something smells fishy.

      Hello **** *****,

      We have received and reviewed your correspondence submitted to the Better Business Bureau and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience that you may have experienced.

      The annual renewal notice was emailed to you on 11/06/2024 at 11:06 AM.  We did not receive a payment for the invoice dated 12/06/2024.  If payments aren't received in a 90 day period, the memberships are automatically terminated. As a onetime customer service gesture, a request has been submitted to have membership ********* reinstated.  We see that a new agreement 24S13696000 was entered into on 05/16/2025.  After the membership is reinstated, we will email you with the new annual renewal date that will be the same each year.  We will cancel the new agreement and refund you the amount you paid.  

      Please note the renewal reminder is emailed to the member 30 days prior to the renewal date, if payment is not received the membership will be terminated.  At the time the reinstate is processed a balance of $99.00 will be due.  Please make the payment when you receive the email stating the membership is reinstated.  If we do not receive payment within 90 days the membership will be terminated and will not be up for reinstatement. 

      We thank you for being a valued member and wish you continued success with your health and fitness goals.

      I had canceled the gym memes around March 26 using my application on my phone it was simple and easy to do so I thought. When April 30th came around I got charged for the membership again so I called and asked whats going on why didnt my gym cancel and they said I had to come in person I told him why have the option to do it online if you wont honor it. He said it doesnt work and its best to come in I asked for a refund for that month and since then Ive been given the run around. Havent seen a manager when I go and hes there he just gives messages to his employees that theirs nothing he can do that I need to talk to the general manager who is also never there I have emailed him with no response. A rude employee named ******* said that no one can help me at the store level only the corporate number I called it and it always says its closed to call back from 8am to 6pm pacific time even though I have records of calling in between those hours. I just want my 50 dollars that were charged illegally its not my fault their system doesnt work.

      The membership was not cancelled as described in your complaint.  We have several members who cancel their membership successfully online. The membership was thoroughly cancelled on 04/30/2025 by a member service representative after receiving an email.  Each time a membership is cancelled a cancellation confirmation is emailed to the member like the one that was emailed on 04/30/2025. The member service representative notes:  Member sent an email on 04/30/25 stating he had cancelled online but still getting charged, the membership is still active process the cancellation send confirmation to email on file via MI, the last access date is 05/30/25.  There were additional emails sent and answered.  As a customer service gesture, we have refunded the billing on 04/30/2025.  A refund confirmation was emailed to you.

      My original membership from 2000 was canceled due to the company's inability to maintain the pricing. I was offered a deal on a current priced membership, which I ************ member account has not been updated with my current membership. I now have two different accounts in their database, one of which (the new one) has the incorrect email.I wish the accounts fixed an merged in order to preserve my 25 year member history, as well as my check-in history, photo, biometrics, and other data.The club does not have database administration access to the member database. They can only create and delete accounts, not merge information. The company does not have a tech support hotline. I have been unable to reach anyone in their IT or billing department. Phone numbers go to endless menus which do not lead to a human. "Contact Us" emails and forms are not returned. Phone calls are not returned.Truly awful experience.

      My membership to 24 hour fitness was cancelled without me being notified. I went to workout on Monday 5/12/2025 and was informed my account had been cancelled. I have been a member since the 1990s and have never missed a payment. I believe this was done because I have a lifetime membership and they no longer wanted to honor it.

      This is regarding the 24 Hr Fitness in *********, Ca. I have been going to the gym at least 3 days a week. For over 6 months several cardio and weight machines have been out of order and have not been repaired. Today 8 out of 15 cardio machines were out of order. 24 Hr Fitness does not fix or replace broken equipment. This is a super sport gym and is very busy. Complaints to the gym personnel have gone on deaf ears. Nothing has been resolved. I have been a member for a long time. This gym is often dirty and machines not working or repaired.

      My name is Xingfei *** 24 hours fitness Member ID: ************* was charged $159 per month from November 2024 to March 2025 (totaling $795) by 24 Hour Fitness for personal training services I never signed up for, authorized, or used. I only purchased a standard annual gym membership on October 26, 2024, at the *********, ** location (**********************************************).At the time, I was told by the staff that the total price of the annual membership would be around $460, which matches my initial payments on 10/26/2024 ($305.87 + $159). There was no mention whatsoever of an ongoing $159/month personal training fee, nor did I authorize any such service.I later discovered the monthly charges and visited the club. The manager, *****, reviewed my account and confirmed that this was an internal error made by a former employee during the enrollment process. He acknowledged that I never requested or used any personal training. However, he stated the club could not refund the charges due to timing and advised me to contact corporate customer service.I contacted *************** twice, but they refused to help and told me to return to the clubresulting in a complete loop with no resolution.I have never attended a single personal training session, which can be verified in their system. I am requesting a full refund of $795 for these unauthorized charges.

      Hello Xingfei Xu, 

      We apologize that you have not been contacted by a member of the management team.  Additional managers have been added to the request in order to ensure action will be taken on the request that was sent out again today. Due to the complaint being about the training agreement being sold without your knowledge this matter has to be handled by the sales team at the club along with their management team.  

      Thank you so much for your patience.

      I have still not been contacted by 24 Hour Fitness, despite their message stating that the matter would be handled by the clubs management team.

      To date, I have received no phone call, email, or other communication from the company. I kindly request that this case be reopened, as I am still waiting for a resolution and refund regarding the unauthorized personal training charges that were added to my account without my consent or knowledge.

      Hello Xingfei Xu, 

      On May 22, 2025 1:51 PM we received the following message from the management team at the club. Update: Attempts to contact the member have been ongoing since January 2025, with multiple outreach efforts each month. A voicemail was left, and another attempt will be made. 

      We have forwarded the rebuttal to the upper management team for additional support to resolve the issue.

      Dear BBB,
      Thank you again for your assistance in helping me follow up on Complaint ID #********.
      Today, I received a refund notification for $159 from 24 Hour Fitness. However, this is only a partial refund, covering just one month out of the five months I was charged for unauthorized personal training services.
      While I appreciate this initial step, I want to clarify that the issue is still not resolved. I was charged a total of $795 (159 5 months) for services I never signed up for, authorized, or used. I am therefore requesting a full refund, not just one month.
      Additionally, I would like to clarify that I have never received any proactive communication from 24 Hour Fitness regarding this issue. On the contrary, I first reached out to the local club, and after receiving no resolution, I contacted the *************** team twice. Despite my repeated efforts, the issue remained unresolved, which is why I had to turn to the BBB for assistance.
      I respectfully ask that the BBB keep the case open and continue to follow up with the business until the full amount is addressed.
      Thank you very much again for your continued support.
      Sincerely,
      Xingfei **
