1/5 Jevgenijs K. 3 years ago on Google
I
have
been
a
member
of
LA
Fitness
on
Rt.18
in
East
Brunswick
since
January
2020,
and
have
been
going
3-4
times
a
week
(except
for
the
several
months
the
gyms
were
closed
due
to
Covid-19).
A
couple
weeks
ago
without
any
notification
or
alerts
to
their
members
LA
Fitness
Rt.18
changed
their
brand
to
ESPORTA
and
began
renovations
to
their
policies,
equipment,
and
attitude…
to
that
of
mobsters.
I
have
been
paying
a
$50
membership
fee
for
single
gym
use
including
sign
up
fees
and
bi-annual
fees
since
January,
but
ESPORTA’s
most
exclusive
multi-club
membership
costs
$25
a
month
without
any
sign
up
fees
and
includes
several
more
amenities
than
my
twice
as
expensive
membership
to
the
same
exact
gym!!
Today
I
inquired
about
switching
my
membership
from
LA
Fitness
single-gym
$50+
dollars
a
month
to
their
most
expensive
$25
dollar
membership…
for
the
same
gym.
I
was
told
that
if
I
wanted
to
switch
I
would
have
to
pay
a
$190
conversion
fee,
and
that
I
could
not
simply
quit
LA
Fitness
and
join
ESPORTA
because
that
would
be
somehow
illegitimate
and
unlawful
and
they
screen
their
applications
and
prohibit
this
behavior.
Therefore
if
I
wanted
to
continue
to
use
their
gym
I
would
have
to
pay
the
inflated
price
of
$50
dollars
a
month
($25
more
than
their
most
expensive
membership)
or
I
would
have
to
pay
the
$190
dollars
up
front.
When
I
inquired
about
quitting
the
gym,
I
was
told
that
was
not
even
an
option!
I
was
told
by
the
manager
that
there
is
no
way
that
I
would
be
able
to
quit
my
gym
membership
through
the
online
portal,
I
would
also
not
be
able
to
quit
the
gym
today
because
the
only
person
who
can
do
that
for
me
works
Monday-Friday,
and
if
I
wanted
to
speak
to
her
I
would
have
to
call
and
make
an
appointment
first.
Don’t
you
love
when
you
sign
up
for
a
gym,
but
without
warning
they
change
to
a
whole
different
gym
and
give
you
an
ultimatum
of
paying
their
extortion
fees
up
front
or
on
a
monthly
basis
without
giving
you
a
way
out
unless
you
jump
through
hoops
and
I
am
positive
pay
a
hefty
cancellation
fee,
that
is
if
I
am
ever
able
to
schedule
this
appointment
in
the
first
place.
PS
–
On
Thursday
12
November,
ESPORTA
Rt.
18
decided
to
put
in
an
afro-turf
in
half
of
the
gym
space
they
typically
use
for
equipment.
But
don’t
worry
because
they
didn’t
take
any
equipment
out,
they
just
smashed
it
all
together
until
you
feel
like
you
are
sitting
on
the
lap
of
the
person
next
to
you
while
you
are
exercising.
Not
only
is
there
no
social
distancing,
they
are
pretty
much
leaving
you
no
choice
but
to
rub
elbows
with
everyone
the
entire
time
you
are
there.
THANKS
