Idk about yall but it was easy for me to cancel. I just had to call the gym and they told me to call corporate and I got the run around so I just called the bank and reported my card lost and just like that gym membership cancelled
Gyms typically want your checking information, rather than your card to avoid exactly that.
So you just have to go to the counter and tell them to remove your payment information and when they don’t, (they’ll say they have but you’ll magically get another change months later) then report them to your bank for fraud.
They’ll get a hold of you real fuckin fast.
When they take your checking account details they’re required by law to remove them from your system when you ask.
Another trick is to tell your bank to block charges from a certain company.
I had to do this because some asshat at a shoe store signed me up for Sport Illustrated even though I declined at checkout. Took multiple calls and verifications it was “canceled” with Sports Illustrated customer support and after the third time it popped up on my CC statement, I just called my bank and they were fine just reversing the charge and blocking all further charges.
Also I don’t buy shoes from those mall chain stores anymore.

What’s the penalty if they don’t? Because if it’s a fine, then they’ll just build the fine into the cost of membership.
Lmao what penalty.
What the fuck is a checking account
A bank account that you use to pay for stuff, the one that your card is linked to, as opposed to a savings or an investment account.
Do you not have bank accounts in your country?
We call them current accounts, apparently.
That’s interesting. Never heard of that term. Guess we both learned something today!
It’s pretty cool how there’s so many people from around the world here, you can learn a lot that you’d never come across otherwise.
