Fitness USA reviews and complaints

I had purchased a lifetime membership and with the closer of all the fitness centers, how do I get a refund or have they set up with another gym to honor this membership?
Is there a lawsuit against the company that I can also get involved with?
They abrupt closing left us out in the cold.
I would like to see at least that another gym facility will honor the membership and if not a refund of the membership cost.

Bought a lifetimemembership.
Business scolded all of their facilities. Do we the people that paid more than a grand get a refund?

I am also a victim of purchasing the $1000 lifetime membership, as is my father. Back when I was still in Chicago, Bally's was honoring the cards. I tried to get clubs in Florida to honor it now that I'm here and can't find anyone who is willing. I'd rather transfer the membership to a place that is IN Business, rather than a refund, anyone know of other clubs that might be doing that?

Me and my mother have lifetime memberships and the closed down permanently awhile back. What is to be done about this? Can we file a claim in court? We paid a good amount of money for that certain membership! I certainly know my lifetime isn't over ye, either is my mother's. I would like to know, what all of the lifetime members are supposed to do?

I because a lifetime member many years ago just to find out that they have all closed down. Haven't heard of any place else that will take over the membership. Would like to know if we will get our money back because I'm still in this lifetime. It would have been nice to receive some kind of notice before they all closed. Please give use a chance to go somewhere else. Thanks in advance.

I never got my money back when the fitnss USA closed in sterling heights mich.i payed
For a life time membership back in 1992 I still have my card but they left and closed up in sterling heights Michigan. I never got my money back I called there but they never gave me a refund. Or was I told I could honor it at any other club. I would how I want my money back wondering what I can do to do that. I dont think that was fare they close up and leave and dont give me my money back. I should at least get half of the money I payed out for a membership I could no longer use because they skipped town without telling anyone. Please contact me at [protected] ask for melody

I purchased a lifetime membership asking with personal training sessions. I had to move to London for work for just about a year and upon my return found very few locations open and no one wanting to allow the personal training sessions. I now live in a state that according to my original contract had fitness centers/gyms that would honor my membership as long as I presented my card. Now I'm not only out my entire membership fee, but also my personal training sessions.

I still have my original membership card.

In the 90's I paid a lot of money for a lifetime membership. I expected never to have to join another gym or spend more money. Now I'm over 60, on disability and will never work again, I need my gym membership. I have my original membership paperwork. Fitness USA broke our contract. I want in the class action lawsuit. I want compensation so I can afford to go to another gym. Is another honoring Fitness USA memberships?

I also have purchased a life time membership back in the 90's. They now have closed every location there is. This is a fraudulent display of advertising a membership and closing all their locations. I remember st one time I stopped paying and they tried to sue me for the remainder of what I owed so I paid it off and co tied to use it. Now they close every store and they have all of our millions of dollars and we are all out 1000's. This is wrong and we need money back or they should honor it at a different gym.

I paid a grand in the 80's for a lifetime membership at this fitness facility. I now have the time to go and they are almost out of business and there are no facilities by me. I'm on a fixed income and in the 80's I didn't have time to go, but did have the money for the membership... Which I bought knowing that when I retired, I would use it then. Thought that was a smart plan and so did their sales representative! False advertising... Ponsy scam... Bad business

I want my money back!

I filed a complaint 2/2015. I will file another. I purchased my lifetime membership January 1990, and paid $961. My last name at the time was El-Khazendar. I was deceived because I signed a contract for a "lifetime" membership. If you can't honor lifetime membership at another facility, them I want a full refund. I enjoyed that "me time" and you took that away from me. Include me in any class action lawsuit now and in the future.

This place has been closed forever and have had several lawsuits against them, yet they took out a judgement on me and took all my money out my bank account! I have 00 dollars to survive with. I am furious to say the least! Fitness usa is and always will be a dump, why do they feel it's okay to take my hard earned money? I am disgusted and of course broke! So happy these crooks are no longer in business. But beware if you ever dealt with them, they can garnish your bank accounts. 😡

I joined Silouhette American in 1971 and was promised a lifetime membership. Silhouette American fitness centers closed. Their memberships were honored by Fitness USA with the same lifetime membership guarantee. Now Fitness USA has closed their facilities and has not made good the promise of a lifetime membership by at least providing another facility which would honor the promise of a lifetime membership. I paid $349.00. I still have a copy of my contract with Silhouette American. If there is any compensatory dollar amount to be provided or class action lawsuit filed, I wish to be included.

I am Juanita Holloway then I was Juanita Williams I purchased a lifetime membership from them years ago. I was told that you would be able to use the membership all over .So I had a stroke and me and my husband ended up moving to Texas. I just assumed that I would be able to use my membership but I found out that they had closed so I still thought I would be able to use my lifetime membership at another club but no one excepts it so I am just out of 1000 dollars. I don't have money to throw away like that. So is there anything that I could do?

i had my membership since feb 1997and is unable to to go any more due to company closing. i paid for my membership in full for an lifetime to be able to use it at any time. That is not going to happen due to business closing. I paid hundreds of dollars for this membership at the time. and would like to be compensated the difference . or use of another gym if
not compensated.

I remember one of Fitness USA's selling points were if you could not get to the gym because you moved or because they closed their location that our Lifetime membership would be referred/ transferred to another location that would take on/ honor our lifetime membership. I haven't read anyone mentioning this. Now that the Lansing, Michigan locations have closed only currently paying memberships are being referred not those who had paid.

We have been lifetime members with Executive Memberships for over 30 years. (We still have all of our paperwork and Fitness USA member cards.) After moving from Indiana to So. Carolina, we were unable to use our memberships because there were no Fitness USA locations in that state. After contacting their headquarters in Bloomfield, Michigan, we were told that there were no affiliated fitness centers in the state that would accept our memberships. I was provided with a pamphlet of A.H.A. fitness center locations that honor the Fitness USA memberships. The closest one was in Asheville, NC, which was 4 hours away. Now, we have recently relocated to Asheville, NC, but we find that there are no gyms that accept our lifetime memberships. This is wrong! I'm hoping there's a Class Action Lawsuit we could join.

I joined fitness USA back in March of 1992, but they are closed in our state which is Michigan, now I am stuck with a card and it's been sitting here for about 8 years are longer, what am I supposed to do?Is there anyway that I can get a refund or go to another club that will honor this membership ?

What can be done now that FITNESS USA has closed all of its locations. I've paid for a lifetime membership back in 1988. I really don't relish paying for another membership with another gym. I would hope someone would honor our memberships at their facilities, but haven't seen that happen yet. Very disappointed in FUSA.
Wishing someone to purchase their building and reopen as another gym here on Ireland Rd in South Bend. We have very little on the southside to choose from .
Too bad O'Brien Fitness wouldn't purchase the building and upgrade their equipment for a larger gym.
I think Fitness USA should make good on all lifetime memberships that were paid. Too bad a class action lawsuit couldn't be filed in this case against them.

I tried to cancel a month after going to this gym as I realized I could not work out due to my health. I could not cancel and had to pay close to $1000.00. I called and asked if I could transfer the membership to my grown son who could use the gym near his home. Over the years I have tried unsuccessfully to get the company to listen to me. Now that I can start to go to the gym with my doctor supervision the gyms are closed. I feel something should be refunded to compensate!
