My husband and I already terminated our contract with them and then a few months later they deducted our monthly payment to his account. When I confront them, they said will prepare a cheque to return our 3 months money. But up till now, we still wait for their cheque. I doubt they will return back our money, it has been 6 months waiting already.

I just about to register ...Hi<br /><br />thanks for sharing.<br /><br />I just about to register with CF today.<br />I saw that on the counter, pamphlet stated only RM170, no admin or join fee.<br /><br />Then, I was being consulted with their sales guy.<br />I said that I want to pay cash.<br /><br />They said, they only accept credit or debit.<br /><br />I start to smell something fishy. Then he took a piece of blank paper and write about package.<br /><br />At that time, I'm thinking. "why this good gym do not have proper paper of package?" I'm felt more weird the about it.<br /><br />He explained that, that RM 170 not include admin fee. I reply, what? There your pamphlet clearly written RM 170, no admin fee. <br /><br />Then he reply, this RM 170 is for trainer package A or B. And actually it is RM 176 and RM 186 (something). It become more complex. <br /><br />I said, I don't want trainer. I just want to use treadmill for running (mainly) during my lunch hours (less than 1 hour) for several days a week. Then he said, no choice, I have to payment RM 140 admin plus monthly commitment RM 170 for 12 months. <br /><br />Wow!! I thought, this is really scam. <br /><br />Then I said to them, I will think again and walk away from them....<br /><br />Luckily...Ariadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092389163924987456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15736338.post-8947141015494010882016-06-13T20:01:03.910+08:002016-06-13T20:01:03.910+08:00celebrity Fitness in City Square mall, Singapore i...celebrity Fitness in City Square mall, Singapore is very poorly managed. There are a lot of Unfair practises going on in this gym. If you are not friends with "someone" you will not be able to get a class for Floating yoga and other such popular classes. Despite a few complaints from me nothing has been done to make things transparent and fair. The rules are not posted so that there is no room for each employee interpreting to their advantage and their friends.<br />The (so called) Manager "Mark" told me that my time and the time on the gym computer is different and that's the reason i don't get a class. I asked him why the computer was not on Singapore standard time and he said that the gym only follows their computer time (and nobody other than the staff know what time it follows)!! He gave me a few other ridiculous arguments about why I dont get a Class, on which I shall not waste my time as it will insult your intelligence. Instead of being a sensible manager and saying that he would look into the matter, he just kept saying that I was wrong, in other words calling me a liar. <br />My recommendation is that if you find another gym, use it and avoid this one if you want to attend classes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15736338.post-55345793828769945142016-04-13T18:26:45.840+08:002016-04-13T18:26:45.840+08:00I also kena from all stupid celebrity pigs...how c...I also kena from all stupid celebrity pigs...how could they just cheat us like that..they increased the price n simply will ask us to pay..bastards..rot in hellAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15736338.post-23894511025398572772016-03-23T19:09:31.355+08:002016-03-23T19:09:31.355+08:00Hi,

I argued with the customer service about their nonsense charges when I already fully paid for the contract i signed up for. Why the outstanding when i didn't opt for the continue membership plus i didn't even went to enjoy the facilities! At the end, the customer service fella just told me that they'll only keep calling you until you pay them up. So, you might as well just use your smartphone and block their number. Thats it.<br /><br />Lesson learned.<br /><br />Side note to new members, good luck to you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15736338.post-4533079843189045372016-03-23T15:45:48.769+08:002016-03-23T15:45:48.769+08:00I left KL 3 years ago and told them in advance abo...I left KL 3 years ago and told them in advance about the issue (even before I signed up). I told them to freeze my account and no one bothered to follow up my case. Yada yada yada. 5 years since then, they are still calling me up. The only advice is: Don't ever sign up with CF. Ever! <br />All in all, fitness centres are all very deceitful especially when they try to sign you up. My T&C document was all blurry when I finally took the document out to call them and deal with the freezing and all. If you want, always bring it back home to read it. I confess that I was naive and stupid for not doing that. Any BS about not having the same price if you don't sign up immediately should always be ignored. While I'm on this, one of the female consultant was being superbly rude to me when I returned to sign up with another consultant. <br /><br />Anyone knows when they will wipe out my number from their system? I'm so sick of them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15736338.post-46122528291432583262016-03-03T23:06:08.865+08:002016-03-03T23:06:08.865+08:00I joined CF on year end 2012 and went session no m...I joined CF on year end 2012 and went session no more than 3-4 times! That time my parents went applied with me and paid for me as well, i didn't really learn about cancellation fee RM400 or any of that procedures. I stopped going to their gym long ago and suddenly they called me last year 2015 and said i still owed them overdue membership fee. I was like WTH?? i tried explained to them that i didn't even got to receive my member card or even seen it because i stopped going after 3 times. No one has called or asked me anything about it and now you said i owed them. Now they urged me to settle the overdue charges otherwise they'll blacklist me. I said go ahead, because I'm not planning go back with their awful service and inconsiderate charges. Then again, they did not give up and call me again regarding the payment. in year 2016 earlier. Did anyone really pay for the balance of overdue charges which you did not went for the gym session after?<br /><br />I signed up for the personal training (12 sessions) - all paid and gym membership (min. 6 or 12 month agreement) - monthly payment but stopped paying because i didn't attend without realize need pay cancellation fee.

As an 18 yearold at the time of signing the contract, thinking about getting fit and buff like Arnold Schwazzinagger. However, little that I know that they will be still bother me to this day. Ok, here's my main concern. As I'm currently 20 years old and broke as hell, will they actually sue or cripple me financially when I ended my studies and began my working life...?

We were promised 3 months free and our first month free since it was almost mid Oct when we join. we insisted to have it stated in our contract and after much hesitation, he photocopied a 3 months free poster and attached to our contract.The sales consultant insisted that we have to pay RM50 for the bag and the card, which we later found out, it was actually for his commission. <br />Sensing something amiss, we called the branch to reconfirm and spoke to their branch manager and fitness manager who confirmed the poster was invalid. Referring to our contract, we were actually charged prorated from Oct till Nov and our next effective payment was in Nov. In summary, everything promised by the sales consultant were a lie, and they started charging us from the day we signed the contract. <br />As settlement, they have agreed to state all the promised in our contract, and it's been 3 weeks we are still waiting for the amended contract.

I wonder why do I first signed up. =(<br /><br />After only like 3 months becoming member, they increase themonthly fee! But I did not make any complaint because it's in the contract.<br /><br />However, now that I really have no time to go to gym, I decided to cancel my membership and was told that I need to pay RM400 since it's 2 months from the end of contract! WTH, RM400 is equivalent to 2 months monthly fees! Doesn't make any changes if I cancel membership or not.<br /><br />So I thought I was smart enough to clear off all the money in my account (I signed up for auto debit). Based on trending, they would deduct money between 14th to 16th. So when I got my salary on the 21st, I kept it and the next day I noticed that my money is decreasing! CF deducts it already! *not smart enough.<br /><br />Now I really have no clue what to do. I want to cancel membership, but I don't want to pay that RM400. Neither I want to pay the monthly fees because I didn't go there now.<br /><br />:( :( :(Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15736338.post-7400620660948609922014-06-30T22:41:44.611+08:002014-06-30T22:41:44.611+08:00can we just cancel our credit card and ignore it? ...can we just cancel our credit card and ignore it?

I'm a current member of Celebrity Fitness Indonesia (I'm gonna cancel my membership soon!)<br />Not that I'm defending them, but it is explained before you sign a contract, at least to me, that CF have the right to increase the fee. I've been a member for almost a year and so far, I haven't seen an increase in fees. <br /><br />One thing that gave me that wtf-expression was when I told them I want to put my membership on hold for a couple months. Since I'm relocating from Surabaya to Jakarta, I thought I won't have much time to go to the gym for the first couple months... I went to one of the branch and I was told that I have to provide proof. <br /><br />Let's say you're sick and can't go to the gym for months... you gotta show them a doctor's letter or something. Since I told them that I'm leaving, they asked for proof of my flight ticket. Serious, wtf?<br /><br />Now that I'm already in Jakarta, Celebrity Fitness is a bit too far from where I work and live. Distance wise, it's not far, but horrible traffic will make it 30-45 mins drive to get to the gym. And there is a Fitness First gym right in front of my office building. Also another gym near my apt. <br /><br />Soo yeah, I'm gonna go cancel my membership later tonight. Let's see what kind of excuses they'll use to keep me as a member.

While they did not breach the contract, but I definitely feel they are unethical. Just force the price increase down our throat. Felt conned and cheated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
