Mildly Infuriating

It's insane that this happens. I've had memberships at six different gyms over my lifetime. For all but one, I've had to explicitly tell them that I want to renew, or else the membership gets automatically cancelled at the end of the contract term.

If it was me, I was nice the first time, now I'd just tell them to f**k off.

With a "If I have to tell you to cancel my membership another time it will attract a $10 fee for each subsequent response from me, I expect your response in no less than 5 days"

Join my gym program it's called LB Fatness. You sign up for this gym scam, cancel immediately using a fake card number so they don't get a dime, and as time goes on joining the gym will become too expensive. If you can't afford to get scammed you won't get scammed. Workouts include carrying a fat wallet, riding a bike outdoors in air that smells like car exhaust and not sweat, and lifting cinderblocks while sitting on a weathered piano bench outside on a patch of dirt. Front yard is optional dirt patch is not. You gotta buy yourself a bike and a few cinderblocks but the piano bench should show up on garbage day on a curb somewhere eventually. Just keep an eye out and you'll see one sooner than you'd think.

Send me your CC#, a photo with your shirt off, and home address and I'll order you clothes that are just a little too small but otherwise look great and will slowly shrink in the wash.

Stuff like this is why I'd rather be fat than go to a gym.

Make a privacy. Com account

Change all of your card info to one of theirs for 3 months

Cancel

The card

Or just tell your bank to blacklist them and leave it at that

You'll be taking a credit hit either way

File a complaint with your state's attorney general and theyll handle it beyond that point when they get to you

I always use virtual cards for any subscriptions these days. If it takes more than a couple clicks to cancel a service, I just delete the virtual card instead.

This is why I used to use a fake name at gyms. When I quit you can chase that ghost.

My climbing gym lets me pause membership for free. Done it’s few times when I’ve had pulley injuries.
