Private Workout
Sells memberships based on deceptive advertising, cares nothing about their customers

I have seen this company's ads in one of the local Dallas news magazines and I thought it would be interesting to give their program a try. The idea of a 6 week program to reduce body fat seemed great. My only issue was that I really wanted a location closer to my home. The website for Private Workout showed that a new location would be open near my home some time in the Fall of 2007. I mentioned this when I signed up for a membership and I made it clear that for this program to be really successful for me, I needed a location that is closer and more convenient. I was assured by Sharon that the Addison location would be open soon so, I signed up. Soon after I started my membership, my work schedule started to prevent me from being able to come in and do my exercise routine. The hours are from 8am to 8pm (very inconvenient for someone who works a lot). I was worried that I was spending money for nothing so, I checked the website again to see if there was an update on the promised Addison location. To my utter annoyance, I saw that someone had updated the site to show an opening date of Fall 2008!!! I haven't been to Private Workout since mid November. No one seems to notice or care. They just happily draft my bank account on the 5th of every month with no concern whatsoever for whether I have been coming in or not. To cancel, I would have to accept a $199 cancelation fee. Today, I instructed my bank to decline all transactions coming from Private Workout. I am about to file a lawsuit too. If you need to get in shape, eat right, get exercise, join a gym (a real gym) and get some discipline. If you work hard, you will succeed. Don't be pulled in by shysters like Private Workout. Once they have your money and a signed contract, they couldn't care less about you after that.
