Joined about 9 months ago. Gym is ok. I belong to 2 so alternate when bored. I have the $20 membership & mentioned to mgr on duty when contract is up want to go to the $10 as I don't use the other 'benefits'. Told it would be $49.95 to downgrade! Sorry she said when I said never told that before & ridiculous. When I left was told by staff person who was part of the conversation,
it depends on the deal so if sign up is 0 I pay 0, if $1 I pay $1. I called corporate & this guy could have cared less. Said it is a franchise so they can do what they want. I am not going to wait to see what the deal is since we have to give in writing 30 days notice of cancellation. To me the price is the price is the price and should be across the board for things like changing your level. If not they should tell you up front as I would not have done the $20 just the $10. I've now emailed corporate but do not believe the response will be favorable. Totally unbelievable in my estimation that changing your membership should cost the equivalent of 2 1/2 months dues...maybe. Buyer or in this case member beware!
