Planet Fitness
reviews and complaints

Good Afternoon, I'm writing this because I have tried to cancel my son's membership for the last 6 months to no avail. His name is Andre Collier. I don't have his account number but I can tell you that the membership started in Benton Harbor Michigan and ended in Grand Rapids Michigan. Money is still being taken out of my account that it needs to be stopped. It would be helpful if someone contact me to resolve this matter.

One massage bed has been broken for months and months.
One massage bed has been broken for weeks.
The Total Body Machine has been broken for weeks.
I have a black membership to be able to have the use of this equipment. It is frustrating that it is all broken and has been for too long and is unavailable for club members.
I depend on the use of the equipment that is included in my membership.

Card 3860 was stolen, and I reported that it should not be used, and I gave card 8142 in replacement of 3860. However, on February 21, 2023, both cards were charged. The stolen card was charged $10, and it was declined and card 8142 was charged $35.29 simultaneously. Why do you charge a late fee of $15.29? Are you supposed to charge card reported stolen before the billing date again? Why was the card reported stolen was not discarded by your organization? Bank of America declined the purchase as a fraudulent and declined it.

I found out card 3860 was charged, I went to demand why card that I reported stolen was still in your possession and charged. I met with a disgruntled employee who wanted to fight me instead of resolving my complaint.

I am demanding that a refund of $15.29 should be made back to my account 8142.

I am also using this to let you know that card 8142 is also missing. Bank of America has put a stop payment on the card. If you charge this account, it might be declined. Please do not charge card 8142 that was in your possession for the April 17, 2023, bill.

I can be reached at [protected] and my name is Siddi Ayesebolatan-Marcus.

I was informed today that they will no longer be open overnight starting April 27. But not told the new hours. I been a member since day one they open in Dekalb, IL. I need to know the new hours as soon as possible. I need to make plans on switching gyms or figuring out daycare. This gym already has cost me money by not opening when they were supposed to be. I paid daycare and left to find no one showed up for work. I complain but they don't care. It is very rude. You can't treat paying members with such disrespect towards their time and money. We have a right to know in advance on new hours. My contract states year to year. Not paying it if they change hours and I cannot go any longer.

4/12/23 about 6 pm. Gym was pretty full of people there working out. Understandable. Was very HOT in gym. Was informed that the AC control was set my corporate and couldn't be changed. If a lot of hot sweaty people are in one area then corporate should understand that the AC should me turned to appropriate temperature. 68-72 is not an appropriate temperature for that many people! There was a man face timing another man in the work out area. He was caring on a conversation with the man on the phone. Was a vocally load conversation between the two. I spoke to two girls at the front desk about it, and they said they would look on the cameras. OK? What is that going to resolve? I waited for a staff member to go and speak to the man, which NEVER happened. I spoke to the man and asked him to take his conversation somewhere else, that is a rule. There are only two large balls to use, and both have been low on air since I started back at the gym in March. Those only two lowed air balls have yet to have air inputted in them. Geeze, I just don't get how there is staff there but only limited to do certain things. Where is the care to have supplies useable and functionable? Where is the care for someone to enforce the rules that have been lined out by this company? Why have them if no one will do anything.

Seems the Staff (Morning) is "ok" with the local Homeless coming into the club (no membership) just walking past front desk and going to bathroom area and do their business, to include shower and sleep. I could understand if it was bitter cold and or snowing or some other "humane" reason, but allowing the local homeless to come in and not just smell up the place but to visually see lice on their clothing is beyond expectable. Early morning people such as myself do not need the uncomfortable feeling as well as dealing with possible transfer of infestation. I said something to the counter man (who was not at counter at the time of entry from the homeless guy -no one at counter) when a fully masked subject, with hoodie (only eyes could be seen) two back packs and heavy coat just walked in and past the counter (temperature was brisk out not COLD) anyway about 2 minutes later while I waited, I told the counter person about the subject who had just entered and passed the front desk. When I seen the counter guy again about 10 minutes later, I inquired about hooded homeless subject and all he said was "I know the guy" ? what the hell does that mean? Is it standard policy to allow homeless people or any vagrants to use a "private" gym? Aberdeen Md. about 6:30 AM 4/11/23.

Side note, Counter guy is really Nice but I 100% disagree with these actions.

As a police officer for 27 years in that town of Aberdeen, I know how fast someone down on their luck can snap, and for him to walk in with no, NO, NO visible way of identifying him because of the way he was bundled up and covered up, along with two backpack with God know what in them.

It's a different world out here now and one of the places we should be "safe" feel safe is a private Gym with a staff that ID's the people coming in. (in case, in case something bad happens).

I understand not all homeless are "Bad" people. But I do know the desperation, given an opportunity to obtain something of "value" / steal for whatever reason, drugs alcohol or just money for a place to stay, I do not want to be Victimized because Staff does not enforce Membership entry.

Again I will say, I do feel the pain of the plight of the homeless, and 100% know that not all of them are bad and yes the majority are beautiful and honest people, but desperation can change anyone.

I was denied the use of my black card access by a white male didn't get his name he had a smug look on his face as

if he enjoyed, hurting and putting people down very sad and upsetting but I did recognize the manager, Vicky who

stood by and joined in on the bad behavior. The whole ordeal lasted approximately 25 to 30 mins it was one of my most

humiliating experiences I ever had everyone at the gym stop to watch them talk. down to me belittle me. I am writing

to you because of an unfair and bias treatment I received at one of your Francises which make you. as a whole look bad,

I am a black & Puerto Rican male am quiet. I keep to myself I don't like to bring attention to myself, am shy and embarrass

easily so I go to the gym to help with some of these issues especially my depression working-out makes me feel

better but today I felt so low so low like am not human I was urging them to please stop I didn't do anything wrong why are

you treating me this way. I will further explain what happened, the reason I was given for being banned from all plant fitness

was that I quit without notice. as I finished my workout, I went downstairs to ask the clerk a Hydro Massage the employee

behind the desk gave me a smug look and said come on" Mike you know you're not allowed in here " loud in front of all the

people at the gym as if I were a vagrant, at this point I was confused didn't have a clue of what he was talking about I said

what do you mean I have a BLACK CARD. the male clerk said in even a louder voice and harsh tone "YOUR NOT

ALLOWED IN HERE " I felt so embarrassed he acted as if I was kicked out of the gym. The day before today 01-24-2023

they made me feel less than a person. The manager came to the front desk and said to me I was banned, and my

membership has been cancelled, I am hard of hearing I asked the manger VICKY can we please step to the side to speak

because I didn't want to be further embarrassed by putting my disability on display for spectators at the gym. I didn't have

clue as to what is happening, Vicky said no and cont. to shout from behind the front desk "YOUR MEMBERSHIP HAS BEEN

cancelled. I asked VICKY why. She said many months ago when I was employed by Plant fitness at the HOWARD BEACH

BRANCH. I stopped coming in I quit working without notifying them that I no longer wish to work at their location.

This is untrue at the time I was dating and living with the assistant manager ASHLEY ROBINSON of the Howard Beach

Branch when I was hired ASHLEY and I have been living together for over a year, both applications have the same single

family home address. I informed ASHLEY CHRISTINA ROBINSON I will not be returning to the Gym to work I will be quitting

once she leaves to her new location Wycoff plant fitness. The reason I quit was that my girlfriend and assistant manager

ASHLEY at the time I witnessed her being very promiscuous flirting with costumers and co-workers. I later discovered she

was unfaithful to me by sleeping with one of her co-workers CREW MEMBER JASON DELREAL who also works at the

HOWARD BEACH location, and I wasn't comfortable working there. I felt it was demoralizing to cont. to work at the location

where my live in girl slept with a coworkers and flirted with many costumers. Due to my Depression and Anxiety, I am not

able to mentally handle the situation or be able to perform my duties under such circumstance. ASHLEY CHRISTINA

ROBINSON got promoted to MANAGER and reassigned to the WYCKOFF, and I quit a Coworker said Vicky was sad

because she was losing two of her best workers meaning Ashely and Myself Michael the same week. In that statement alone

says Vicky was aware that I was leaving my employment with plant fitness Ashley and I decide to go our separate ways and I

asked her to move out. ASHLEY, VICKY (Howard beach manger) and NADA (area manager) are close friends there using

Plant Fitness like their own person business, I feel this is a bias act because her and her click. I broke up with ASHLEY

Since these are ASHLEY'S friends and she wasn't happy I asked her to leave my home where she lived rent free and she

couldn't use me anymore so she has a vendetta against me and is trying to hurt me anyway she can. I called my mother

who usually helps me handle certain stressful situations because I become overwhelm easy, she also pays for account

because its therapy for me to go to the gym and work out it make me feel good about being me and it relaxes me so I can

feel less stress and sleep. Her account was charged 26.00 January 20, 2023 did she lose her money and why. I asked Vicky

to speak with my mother to explain, she refused and said she doesn't have to talk to anyone in HURSH SPITFUL TONE she

said this is between you and me. My mother called the Howard beach gym she to speak to the manager she refused and

laughed with the male co-worker it was the hardest day for me I went home and thought of suicide that's how low they made

I'm submitting this complaint on ABC fitness (Planet fitness) Hawthorne 13119 Hawthorne Blvd

Hawthorne, CA 90250 on March 28 th, 2023 i was physically assaulted by the black worker & the assistant manager.

Walking into the gym the black worker with the dreadlocks followed me into the locker room grabbing my shirt yelling you need to check in.

Being the business owner of several business touching someone without their consent is the most disrespectful thing you can do. Telling the worker don't put your hands on me, I checked in with the woman working the front desk. The worker responded, I'm gone ban yo [censored] today [censored]. Demanding to talk to the manager on staff, i was verbally assaulted by the assistant manager,

When i let the worker know that i was physically attacked by the black worker on staff, the worker says we banning yo [censored] today [censored].

The derogatory language, the level of disrespect, being attacked by the workers on staff, this is not rite. This is not a judgment free zone, this is the slave

zone this gym is being run by crack smoking workers who physically attack the members, there's several reports of woman being raped, stabbed, beaten by the workers

of planet fitness. My life is to be taken seriously, being the black business owner, owner of several business, i won't settle for being physically abused.

I won't settle for being verbally assaulted by the assistant managers . This is not rite.

-

i checked into the gym during the time of 5:53, I'm not going to be disrespected, physically and verbally assaulted for being black & well-respected.

i will be notifying every news outlet in the world know of the woman assaulted, raped, beaten and disrespected by the workers of planet fitness.

I'm demanding the black worker with the dreadlocks and the assistant manager be fired, I'm demanding the gym clear my name & re-instate my membership in this location

I'm demanding the apology from the owners and workers in this gym!

Recently, the women's shower room has been dirty, trash lying in the corner for 3 days, hair in the drains and the handicap shower has had an issue with the hot and cold regulator not working properly. I have been told that the part has been ordered, that was 3 weeks ago! Also, sometimes the paper bag dispensary has been overflowing. I think that when there are girls working, maybe they could check on the locker room once in awhile instead of just standing at the desk. I have been a member for 4 years and I don't recall this being such a problem in the past.

Thank you

My wife had been trying to cancel the membership since 2015 but the account kept withdraw the membership fee. The facility was close few years ago and I called 2 weeks ago talk with someone and she said I will have refund between 5 to business days. Today I called again and talked with the general manager name Josh. He said the account cancel today and I will get my refund next 10 day. Why it's so hard to cancel the membership since 2015? Today Planet Fitness taken the fee again. Please resolve this issue for me. Thank you.
