We
all
know
that
canceling
gym
memberships
are
painful
experiences
but
this
is
above
and
beyond.
Let
alone
the
fact
that
anybody
should
be
able
to
cancel
gym
memberships
when
there
is
a
pandemic/act
of
god/force
majeure
because
that
language
isn't
written
into
the
signed
contract.
What
is
in
the
contract
however,
is
in
Pennsylvania,
every
health
club
follows
the
Health
Club
Act
which
states
that
every
club
must
add
some
provisions
in
a
contract
allowing
a
buyer
to
cancel
their
membership.
One
provision
states
that
the
buyer
may
cancel
the
contract
if
the
health
club
facility
closes
for
more
than
30
days
and
the
health
club
fails
to
provide
a
comparable
facility
within
ten
miles
of
the
location
designated
in
the
health
club
contract
(Line
3
under
the
Notice
of
Consumer
Rights
on
your
contract).
The
club
was
closed
March
16th
-
June
26th.
After
I
hand
delivered
a
notice
exercising
my
option
to
cancel
my
membership
due
to
the
club's
closure
of
months,
the
sales
manager
refuses
to
accept
my
notice.
I've
gone
through
the
proper
channels
and
the
club
insists
on
refusing
the
notice
because
the
time
to
file
the
claim
was
when
the
club's
doors
were
closed.
I've
never
been
able
to
cancel
a
gym
membership
through
email
or
phone
calls,
so
addressing
the
situation
the
first
week
the
club
is
open
feels
like
it's
within
the
statute
of
limitations.
The
only
olive
branch
from
the
club
is
they
are
"willing"
to
freeze
my
account
for
30
days.
The
club
would
ask
that
I
do
this
indefinitely
until
the
pandemic
comes
to
an
end
and
it
is
safe
to
assemble
in
large
groups
(anyone
see
Florida
&
Texas
cases
spike??).
This
is
simply
not
good
enough,
and
by
right
of
the
contract,
I
should
be
able
to
terminate
the
remaining
term
of
the
contract
immediately.
I
understand
that
these
are
unusual
times
and
most
businesses
are
struggling
to
survive
after
closing
their
doors
for
4+
months
but
making
people/your
costumers
lives
more
difficult
will
only
drive
us
away
from
your
business.
I've
sent
a
compliant
into
the
Attorney
General's
office
asking
that
the
club
be
fined
the
$1,000
penalty
for
violating
the
Health
Club
Act
and
will
continue
to
push
all
avenues
to
bring
these
unethical
crooks
to
the
light
with
hopes
that
it
helps
one
other
person
get
out
of
having
to
choose
between
risking
infection
or
losing
hundreds
of
dollars.
