A rowing machine has been out of order for an extended period of time
At the Powerline Road Planet Fitness gym in Pompano Beach Florida there are two rowing machines. One of the machines has been out of order for an extended period of time. Someone else was on the other machine and responded rudely when I asked if I could work in. He was extremely large and as I'm seventy years old I merely moved on. My question, not really a...
Read full complaintBeing harassed by collection lawyer on behalf of planet fitness
I cancelled my membership because of medical reasons. I received acknowledgement of the cancellation from planet fitness. I paid what they required me to pay. Since then I have been receiving emails from a collection lawyer demanding money. I explain the situation to them but they ignore my explanation and continue harassing me. It has been a year and a half now. How do I get them to stop?
Covid notifications / refund / cancellation
My local PF closed in March for COVID. They sent me an email stating that accounts would be frozen until further notice. Unfortunately they forgot the further notice part, and started charging again in June. I am a disabled vet with respiratory issues, so there is no way I would even think about going to a gym now. Yesterday I noticed a 39 dollar fee from...

Billing
I was charged over $60 in the last 2 weeks from planet fitness. $21 for my membership, and $39 for the annual fee even though I thought all accounts were frozen. I haven't been to the gym since march, due to the global pandemic. The gym is the last place I would go right now... Especially a gym as dirty and unkept as planet fitness. And now I cant even...

Greetings I have been a member of the Planet Fitness, 777 Broadway location for many years. On Monday Oct. 26th, I had the misfortune of encountering Andre Young. Mr. Young approached me while I was on the treadmill and short of breath. Mr. Young asked me to pull up my mask, which I did, then he proceeded to lecture, and harass me about wearing my mask. He...

I signed up with planet fitness in december 2019. On january 2020, I came into planet fitness in utica, ny in person requested cancelation of my membership. The front desk personnel said they will take care of it. Don't worry about a thing. I walked out thinking it was so nice of them. February came. I saw a charge on my bank statement. I visited planet...

Just won't stop billing me despite the fact I have tried many times to cancel. Since the Pandemic I have not used this cess pool of a gymnasium, nor will I ever use it again. It is disgusting in this place and I won't set foot in there as I am high risk for the many diseases I am sure they transmit there. I would recommend all other gyms I have seen over this one.

I called and emailed planet fitness since March or April of this year to cancel membership and did not get a call back. This membership was for my brother and he couldn't attend because the corona virus started then. I am in Daytona Beach Florida, so I have no way of knowing when they would be open. This was a gift and I was paying until the pandemic. They...

On four different occasions i've let staff know that a member has a loud personal music device on inside of the shower stall she was using, and that the loud music was bothering me. I was told that this was against policy but that the manager needed to be the person to deal with the situation. A week ago I filled out this form because staff told me that wa...

I went to Planet Fitness on August 22, 2020 in Pflugerville to find out why they were drafting my account $10.83 and was told by their representative manager that my account was closed and that Planet Fitness system did not show they were drafting my account. The employee contacted the corporate office who told him to tell me to send an email to their email...
Read full complaintEmployee complaint
I am a member at Planet Fitness in Rolla, MO. I have been a member here for quite some time and have always had a great experience with staff being helpful and friendly, this was not the case today. Today I went into the Planet Fitness where I live in Rolla, MO to tan. While another employee was speaking with me and checking me in, your employee Brittany asked if I had a mask, which my response was maybe, because I was unsure if I had one in my purse or it was left in the truck. No one has ever asked me to wear one inside until today, most likely because I only use the tanning beds. Brittany rudely states to me, "You are going to have to start wearing a mask when you come in here." I understand your policy on wearing a mask and I have no problem with it although I do prefer not to wear one if I don't have to due to lung issues I have. What I do have an issue with is the way I was spoken to, mostly the demeanor and tone I was was spoken to with. Brittany spoke to me in a very rude snotty manor. I was under the impression your gyms are supposed to be a very positive environment and your members are to be treated in a positive respectful way. A judgement free zone. Her attitude does not reflect that motto. It all could have been handled in a much different manor, a positive respectful one.
Thank you for your time.
Respectfully,
Keri Ann Headrick
Refund
I filed a request to have $22.01 put back into my account, but after a month I'm waiting. Demi who is my contact at 4700 Jonesboro Rd Union City Planet Fitness has not made this a happy experience. Planet Fitness pulled funds from my account illegally. The fitness rep who walked me through the process of withdrawing my activity made a mistake. Greg Williams [protected]

First of all, you should read this now while you still can. They will most likely find a way to have Yelp take it down. Yelp might take it down on their own, because it involves criminal content. I will try to tone it down from the real story, but this situation has completely utterly destroyed my life, and I am still suffering to this day, 2020, the long...
Read full complaintGym membership
I decided to cancel my gym membership with Planet Fitness because I had an indoor gym built as well as trying to decrease my risk of exposure to Covid-19.
I literally have not used Planet Fitness at all this year (2020) and had just been using my home gym to stay in shape. The primary credit card I had on file with them for my monthly charges was cancelled because I no longer use that bank. I understand it's my part to let the gym know when a credit card on file has been cancelled, but if you try to charge a CC on file that does not go through when you have charged it a few times, common sense would be to just cancel that person's membership.
I had to pay a balance due to cancel my membership when they CAN go back to my records and SEE that I haven't even been in to use their gym. That's theft. And I had to pay for the next MONTH's balance because I am cancelling AFTER the next month's due date. That is complete [censored]. Like I said, I have not been in to use their goddamn equipment at all this year. After I paid what was past due, I SHOULDN'T have had to pay for this month's at ALL since it is already cancelled. This is [censored]ing theft. And due to Covid they should be more understanding why I haven't been coming in so I don't feel like I own them any money, period.
Gym
The staff at planet fitness is useless! The equipment is always broken and they won't help you with anything. They don't rack the weights that are left around. They won't help you adjust the machines or teach you how to use them. They won't address any concerns you have. They let people tie up the 30 minute workout room; even though there are sign...

Their trainer named Stanley is highly unprofessional, judgemental and makes the members that sign up for his classes very uncomfortable. He uses vulgar language and speaks negatively about members. He has made myself and a close friend of mine feel small during his classes and has repeatedly embarrassed us in front of other members and staff. He should be fired.

I was charged extra to my account for the end of June, this is ridiculous because we were not notified, I was going to cancel my membership in march but due to covid I couldn't. the fact that you cant cancel over the phone is ridiculous esp during these times. I want the money back that was charged to my account since none of us customers got notified.
Unscrupulous billing tactics during pandemic
Public complaint regarding what I deem an unscrupulous tactic. I noticed a pf charge on my account & contacted the club immediately given that there's still an active pandemic in dekalb and gwinnett counties in georgia which is where my gym is located has been deemed among the highest. I contacted the local club because surely to charge an auto renewal without any email to members especially during this time was not a good policy coupled with the club having been closed (rightfully so) and to please cancel my membership immediately and to refund my account. The local employee suggested I reach out to corporate because they were told that under no circumstances to issue refunds and I expressed that this was an unscrupulous policy.
I proceed to write to corporate noting the above and this:
"before I take any additional action I am requesting that my account be credited immediately. How this is handled will dictate my desire to resume membership when conditions warrant and how I communicate my experience. Now is not the time to be on the wrong side of customer service."

Thank you for contacting us regarding your concerns with the annual membership fee charge. According to the contract signed upon becoming a member with planet fitness, which states "in order to cancel the billing of this annual fee, the club requires written notice and cancellation of your membership on or before the 25th of the previous month. The annual membership fee is fully earned when received and is non-refundable." we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you, however, unfortunately we will not issue you a refund based upon the contract you signed."
I responded to this email again expressing how unscrupulous this tactic is given the extenuating circumstances of an unprecedented pandemic that's taking place as well a publicly registering this to business bureaus and other media outlets. I am sure that I am not the only victim.
My response to pf email
To say that I am extremely disappointed in your practice is an understatement. This is an unscrupulous tactic given the extenuating circumstances during an unprecedented pandemic that's taking place. If you were truly interested in customer service you would have emailed your customers about the annual renewal reminder or to confirm if members wanted to continue just as you emailed about the closing of the gym. I am certain I am not the only victim and will be proceeding with registering and communicating this complaint.
