      I have been trying to cancel my service with 24 Hour Fitness however, the only way to cancel service is online and I cannot connect to my account. Theyre 800 number no one picks up. The location I started my membership said they cant cancel my account. I was charged $91.90 on November 28th. 24 hour fitness is making it hard to cancel my account or get a hold of someone that can do it. I would like my account cancel immediately and we find out my $91.90.

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution would be satisfactory to me.  I will wait for the business to perform this action and, if it does, will consider this complaint resolved.

      First issue; The chlorine in the spa is extremely high which is giving us the members, skin chemical *****, eye problems from the bubbling of the water reaching our eyes, and inflammation of the inside membranes of the nose.The second issue; is the temperature of the pool water it is so cold, the own fitness guidelines say that the water will be kept between 81 degrees to 83 degrees, and it's always between 79 to 80 degrees. The Grossmont facility is kept around 85 degrees, and the manager of this facility on Imperial Ave doesn't want to get the water warmer.The third issue; the A/C of the pool area during the daytime goes to 69 F, and at night goes down to 66 F, which is contradictory to reality, it supposes to be the other way because we are in winter and night time the outside temperature goes down to the 50's degree. I attend the gym after 5pm, because my caregiver picks me up at 5pm from home, (by the way, I'm in a wheelchair with a neurologic/low immune system illness) and I have not attended to my regular exercises in the past 3 weeks, because I'm afraid to couch a cold because the water it's too cold, the A/C is set up too low, and I began to have very bad cramps in my body. I was explaining to the manager, me, and many seniors and disabled members. But we cannot pass through higher than this manager, it seems like we cannot get the regional manager or any other person from headquarters. Please help us, we, the seniors and disabled people can't do exercise outside the water for various reasons, like me, I can't get over a treadmill or bicycle or walk without a ******, or just walk without pain as I do in the water.Appreciate so much your help.*************************** ************ PD. By the way, this is not an anonymous complaint, I let the manager know by email and phone messages, that I will do anything to get this to happen.

      I wanted to try to experience fitness on the 03/11/2022, the front desk manager received me and my friends, told us the membership fee, and suggested whether to try a personal trainer. I asked The price of a personal trainer, I chose a 4 times a month experience package, because I have never worked out in the gym, so I clearly told that I just want to experience it, he said there is no problem to experience it for a month, and did not inform me of this service at the time The contract will be automatically renewed every month, because I was told at the time that I would go to another state immediately. But on December 3rd, my credit card was automatically charged $310, and the project was still for this personal trainer. I rushed to the gym on the night of December 3rd, and the staff at the time said that it was possible to cancel, and I received the related cancellation that night document. On December 6th, when I called in the morning to ask when the refund was due, the staff told me she would ask her manager for instructions. After receiving a call from the manager, first of all, he denied that he did not inform me that this service is available every day. Monthly automatic renewal; Secondly, he said to cancel, and he must cancel with them before the bill comes out. This is inconsistent with the whole fact. First, the contract clearly states that I am using a one-month service. Second, the contract clearly states that I can cancel within 2 working days. When I asked the staff on December 3, he also said that it was necessary Wait until the business day to refund the service charge. During the communication with the manager on December 6, his attitude was extremely bad. He completely denied what he said when he was handling the business, and let me do whatever he wanted. Anyway, the money cannot be refunded. I was very shocked and angry, and I hope to get effective compensation solve

      I joint 24 hour fitness in Yorktown ******** because it was open 24 hours. The **************** , ** 24 hour fitness is not open 24 hours and they never built a pool they claimed to have. Everytime members ask about going to **************************************************** other c*** Most Members are upset the club is not open before 5 am on weekdays and 6 am on weekends. As it is the gym is way to crowded at 5 am with a line of people waiting to enter. If the club was open 24 hours this would reduce the stress on the 5 am time frame. As for the pool we still dont have one since the opening in 2019.

      In 2019, I became a member of 24-hour fitness in *********** ** where I reside. I was recommended by the 24-hour fitness personal trainer assigned to me at that time to purchase sessions in *********** informed me this would keep me motivated to attend sessions consistently. Due to the Covid 19 Pandemic that particular site closed. Unknown to me it closed indefinitely. April of 2022, when I felt comfortable to enter the gym. Unbeknownst to me the *********** site closed. I attempted to use my 44 sessions in the Pelham Parkway site located in the Bronx, but I was informed that I was unable to. I was informed that all of my sessions expired, and I would not be reimbursed, credited or my workout sessions reactivated. Once again, Covid numbers spiked but, as of recent I know feel comfortable with going to the gym and I need a resolution to this matter. I really want to focus on my health and use my paid sessions if not credited. I would not have purchased sessions in advance if the personal trainer (24-hour fitness employee) would have explained to me that the sessions expire. In retrospect I was manipulated to meet his monthly quota. In addition, I would have addressed the matter expeditiously if I received correspondence in regards. 2019 Employee: *********************** Location: ************************************************************

      I went in to 24 hour fitness in September and was trying the club for a month. When I went back in after the one month. At 2 o'clock the club was closed and at 4 o'clock I got a charge on my credit card for the month a key charge and an initiation fee. I immediately went back up to the club at 4:10 and turned in my key and told the girl I was going to register a complaint with my credit card company, when the credit card company investigated, I had signed a blank contract in September and then in October before I got back up there to talk to them about the membership. The girl had already charged my card with all of these fees. I cannot get them to call me back or credit, the initiation fee and the key charge which is over $100 , this is blatant fraud and I want to report them.

      24 Hour Fitness is defrauding me by not cancelling my account 6 months after I have moved away, and fraudulently charging my account every month. A charge of **** a month hits my credit card every month for no services rendered. I have contacted my credit card company and local law enforcement based on their fraudulent actions. This facility needs a overhead look into its practices. I have pleaded with this company to please stop charging my credit card for no reason but they will not stop. All receipts are on my credit cards statements. Please let me know fi you need those documents.

      why are employees out front smoking cigarettes & making this gym toxic? They are stinking up the fresh air we need to be healthy? The level of leadership at this club is 0% on the weekends when the manager **** is gone... 4pm today they are out front like a dive bar smoking and acting a fool.... Then when I called them toxic for making an unhealthy environment for people with medical issues they get violent and have their "toxic" friends try to fight me for requesting **** put no smoking signs out front..... these donkeys are literally acting like this gym is a dive bar and making this gym toxic and very unhealthy for members..... Employees should be motivating members, raising the standard on the weekends and selling memberships.... ****, you need to fire these clowns and get properly educated fitness team members to boost the sales on the weekend.... the weekend at 24 hour fitness is not for partying, it's for being healthy!!! this club has a 3 star review because of toxic employees like this ruining the healthy experience for paying members.This club is located in ********, Oahu, ****** **** is a good manager his employees on the weekend are just not properly educated.
