That's one thing I love about my YMCA.
I decided to cancel my gym membership because I was doing too much work to go to the gym and I didn't want to waste the money.
Walked in and said "Hey, I'd like to cancel my membership" and they said "No problem. Your membership ends at the end of the month. Please come back when you've got your shit together and want to rejoin."
I probably could have done it over the phone.
“No problem. Your membership ends at the end of the month. Please come back when you’ve got your shit together and want to rejoin.”
This makes me want to join your gym. Direct to the point, no bullshit, and a bit of sass. I like it.
You're full of shit. We tried to cancel our YMCA membership because it got to expensive and they put us through hell to cancel.
Why are all gyms this way?
There are many different ymca's some are better than others.
Could you describe the process? What, exactly, made it "hell"?
Well they didn't allow us to cancel. Said we had to give a 30 day written notice. So had to cancel the account it was tied to, and then they still try to send us to collection. Never again.
That's fucked up, what a stupid amount of hoops to jump through from something so small.
