Ok, so I was one of those people who got sucked into a contract with At the Beach. Which is still my fault because i didn't read the fine print (i learned my lesson) but i found a way out of it!
This wont work for those of you who have had it longer than three days, but i contacted a local attorney and had her look over my contract. She called me back saying that at the beach is registered with the consumer protection agency as a -health spa-. Now in oklahoma (i dont know about any other states) there is a statute that states...
"Every health spa contract or membership agreement for the sale of future health spa services which are paid for in advance or which the buyer agrees to pay for in future installments shall be in writing and shall contain the following provisions:
A provision for the penalty-free cancellation of the contract or membership agreement within three (3) business days of its making and refund upon such notice, of all monies paid under the contract or membership agreement; "
Sooooo, if its been within 3 days you can send them a written notice and probably a copy of something stating the above to them and they should refund all the money you paid so far and cancel your contract!
I hope this will help someone like me who didn't realize what they were getting into.
