In June I was working out at the L. A Fitness Facility located in Doral Florida. Having noticed a sign advertising a free body evaluation. I submitted to the evaluation and upon completion was advised Body Of Change manager Andy Simril that I should engage the services of a personal trainer.
He explained the program including the cost. I agreed to a term of 18 sessions to be billed in 5 monthly Credit Card Payments of $90.00 each. When I inquired as to the extension of monthly payments until written request of cancellation is received. He explained that this would not be an issue. And the only reason I had to sign a contract of ongoing payments was to authorize the 5 payments. Although I did have a positive experience during 1 training session. The remaining sessions were with apathetic trainers. Who just wanted to get it over with. And on 2 occasions the trainer failed to show at all.
As a result I sent a letter to L.A. Fitness requesting immediate cancellation. Having believed that I had satisfied my obligation within the requirements of the agreement. I gave it little thought. Until discovering that Body Of Change L.A. Fitness continued to charge my Credit Card 2 years later.
I plan to file a complaint with the Florida Attorney General's office. As well as advising any other L.A. Fitness Club Members to avoid this Ripoff.
