Bally Total Fitness Complaints - Cannot Cancel Membership

Review all Bally Total Fitness complaints

Bally Total Fitness

Cannot Cancel Membership
Complaint Rating: 100 % with 2 votes
Company information:
Bally Total Fitness
Georgia
United States

I, like everyone else who has ever signed up with Bally, is facing some head on fighting to get out of my contract. They just say "read the terms of your agreement" which they never gave me a copy of. Bally is completely a scam and we should not take this kind of treatment. I am going to stand up and do whatever is in my power to stop these people from ripping people off. They have filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy, so hopefully they will be gone soon anyway, but let's all put a few nails in the coffin, shall we?

I too feel the same, I have been fighting with them from more than a year now and I don, t know why they do not want to cancel my contract. First of all I was new to this country and know nothing of the So called GYM memberships ... I spoke with a person by Name RJ working in bally's saddle brook, NJ, he tactically walked us to signing the contract (which we did not know was for 3 years) and Even did not provide our copy. All he said was monthly we have to pay some XX and anytime we need to cancel we can do that. I mainly asked this because my sister who was also included in my member ship (we joined together) Had to go back to INDIA.
Now the actual struggle starts, I called them and informed them and asked them to cancel her membership, they asked me to provide Flight tickets which i did. they said they cannot accept it. So i had to wait for a while and send them the bank statements as an address proof and followed with them they wanted some more documents which i promptly send them but they did not relive me of the pain. Over all the above we never used the utilities... even me i had some medical problems and had stopped to go to that facility and after a while i had to move out of that area and did not know where to go.
Now i get calls from different people asking me for the payment(debt) sounds silly as i have not used even their facility.
This is annoying. I dont know what to do... I believe in destiny... dont try to cheat others as it will cause all bad to you... I feel that the reason now you have filled bankruptcy.

While it seems like the only thing we can do is post on scam sites and message boards, this is not true! I think that everyone really needs to get together and try to bring this evil, immoral and corrupt company down. This is what I have done so far. Made copies of flyers and distributed it near colleges and even near Bally Total Fitness itself about my story. I also wrote an article about it online.

If the government won't do anything about it and if the Better Business Bureau won't do anything about it, no matter how many complaints they get, we have to take things into our own hands. I recently wrote an email to Michael Moore, the famous director and creator of award winning documentaries such as Sicko, Bowling for Columbine and Fahrenheit 9/11 through his website at www.michaelmoore.com or you can email him directly at mike@michaelmoore.com.

I know that this is a long shot, but it doesn't hurt to try. Maybe if enough people write to him, he will pay attention to us. He is a brilliant man. I believe he's the kind of person that personally reads his emails and will help if he can!!! So try it!!! You have nothing to lose. Meanwhile, the main goal is to inform people. If you see someone getting lured into Bally's, try to stop them from going in. The more people that knows about this, the more Bally's will lose business. Once they can't save themselves, they will realize what they have done wrong to have flushed their entire corporation down the toilet.

~Peace.
