I dealt with this shit years ago with LA Fitness as well. I wanted to try it, and they said “oh yeah you can sign up and try it out for x days and if you don’t like it, it’s free to cancel” so I said sure. Well I decided to cancel half way through and the sales guy first hit me with the “but I’ll lose the commission and I already spent it” crap, then said they’d cancel it, didn’t, went in to try and cancel, they said “oh you gotta mail a thing in to cancel” by which time there wasn’t enough time for it to get there. So I cancelled my credit card and said 🖕. Got some calls at first about it, then I guess they sold it to a debt collection agency that tried to offer me a lower fee option to recoup their losses but I just ignored their calls after the first one till they stopped. Never did see it hit my credit surprisingly.
Uh. Good to know.
