overview for Junkasaurus

Asked LA Fitness to cancel my membership, they offered to freeze it for $10/month instead in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Yeah that must be nice to have consumer protection laws where you live 🥲

My original post was actually a lived experience. Around the start of COVID I wanted to cancel my membership at Retro Fitness, but they refused unless I came in with an essay about why in person. Yup you read that right.

Fun fact: the gym was closed to guests because of COVID

Pretty easy decision

Might be breaking an NDA by posting this but I got invited to the "ebay kitchen beta" and everyone needs to see this in c/funny@sh.itjust.works

Yeah good call, I’d do this too. Just watch out though because the gym will send any unpaid bills to collections. Might be worth it though to get out of the contract - just make sure to pay off the debt within 30 days.
