Fit4Less / Harlands Preventative Action

[Raj123]

Hi all,

 

After reading through many reviews and experiences of the cancellation issues with Harlands

- I wanted to ask a few questions before I took any action which would get me into trouble/involve admin fees.

 

I joined Fit4less in in September for £17.99 a month (no contract).

I did use the gym at first but have not had the time to go recently and so would like to cancel the membership.

However, I would like to do it in a fool proof manner so I don't end up falling into the trap of such charges and admin fees, that I have read about.

 

What I intend to do:

 

Send an e-mail AND a letter (recorded delivery) to the gym manager informing me of my intention to cancel,

and accepting that I will pay one more monthly payment (as per the notice period of 30 days).

This final payment will be in November.

 

What I would like to ask is about the contents of the letter

- Do I need to include the direct debit details?

And should this letter also be sent to Harlands?

Should I expect a reply from the Fit4less or Harlands, confirming cancellation?

 

The reason why ask so many questions is that I haven't actually come across any experiences of people who have done it

'the right way' and had no issues whatsoever.

 

 

So I'm just wondering if I'll get hassled regardless of how I go about cancelling my membership...

 

Thanks very much in advance

Hi Raj and welcome to CAG

 

Have your read the Sticky I posted - http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?452671-Cancelling-your-Gym-Agreement-Get-it-right-!

 

That should tell you all you need. Two copies of a letter, taken into the gym, is your best option.
