I joined Planet Fitness as a BLACK CARD member a little over a year ago. I thought it nice to have the perks, especially tanning. I have been tanning in their beds and not once in one year have I seen any type of maintenance on this machines. The inside where the lights are, are filled with dust and goop, every single one of them. They emit very little...

Yesterday November 16th, 2023 I was in the ABD section, there was a young man on the phone the whole time as he went from machine to machine without wiping them down. Since it hard for me to describe people, I took a picture of him and told the girl working the desk, She said she knew who I was talking about. There are signs in the facility to only use...

I wish to file a complaint regarding an employee at the Planet Fitness location on 12 Sussex Ave, East Orange, NJ 07018. This morning, after my workout, I approached the counter to inquire about using the massage chair. The attendant working at the counter around 9:30 AM, who typically is there in the mornings between 7-10 AM, wasn't wearing a name tag and...

Planet Fitness Planet Fitness (Otay Ranch, CA)

Incident: Wednesday 10/18/2023 around 9:30a pst

I’ve enjoyed coming to planet Fitness (Otay Ranch) for years now, but I have to say the maintenance has been on the decline for awhile. A lot of times there’s no paper at the closest station to wipe down the equipment. The restrooms are gross and usually have an unattended bathroom smell.

Today, I was washing my hands and face at the sink and the maintenance guy with the ear plugs approached me in a threatening manner, accusing me for water all over the sink. Nope! That was there long before I even walked in. I found this behavior absolutely unprofessional and unacceptable. Nobody should be singled out, accused, embarrassed, and approached in a threatening manner. It makes me question why should I continue to be a member?

Planet Fitness Being over charged

I have not used my membership for years now. I have called and tried to cancel. I noticed a charge on my account on Oct 2 so I called again. They said I had to come in and sign. Today was my first available time to make it in. Was told that I would not be refunded for the yearly fee and monthly charge for October. That’s ridiculous. I would like you to credit my account for these charges as you should be able too see I haven’t been there.

Planet Fitness gym time

I am a member of the Hicksville location. I have been a member for a few years now. The gym is supposed to be open 24/7. I went there at 4:45 Monday morning at the gym did not open until 5:05. I went to several gyms while my gym was closed and found the same situation. The reason I joined was the hours as well as the price. I need to be at work at 7:20, so this gyn was perfect for my hours. Several people outside the gym felt the same way. If you are not going to be 24/7 do not advertise that, its false advertising! If it keeps happening I as well as other, may look to go to another gym

Desired outcome: correct time issues

To Whom It May Concern, I have been advised that my father (who is a senior and a long time member) and friendly staff were unprofessionally yelled at by a manager named Debbie in front of the crowded gym. It is appalling and disappointing that a person in management would humiliate a senior/customer for a misunderstanding. Proper training was obviously...

I am a current member of your clubs and have visited several in the tidewater area of Virginia and western Massachusetts as well. While the general cleanliness varies from location to location, the one I visited today set a new low bar standard. One of the reasons for my shock was that this location on Tidewater Drive in Norfolk Virginia is a brand-new...

Planet Fitness Billing

I Nadine Cruz was told I needed to submit a letter to canx my membership. I took 3 letters, 3 different times, and was told the last time it was canx but I would have a balance of $54. Then today I am told you never needed to submit a letter to canx by a aero manager who hasn't been that that long. I told him I have been a member longer then him that how would he know what I was told. I also told him to look at the notes and he said there were none other then I went in july. I am very upset with the staff at Planet Fitness on SE Military. I have taken 3 different letters trying to canx my membership and as of today no one has helped me but this new aero mgr who sent me and email telling me it is canx. he also stated I was reported to a collection agency. I canx numerous times and do not feel I owe. This is ridiculous, you can clearly see that I did not go to the gym due to restrictions. thank you Nadine Cruz

Planet Fitness TV programs

This is not a real complaint, rather a request/suggestion.

Of the 10 TV's at Villa Park PF, one is black, out of service and has been this way since I joined approximately 1- 1/2 years ago. There are also two TV's showing same programs, number 3 and number 7.

My request is could one of those named TV sets be tuned to the Court TV station? I rely on watching TV during use of elliptical and stationery bike, this would be a real plus to watch Court TV.

Thanks for your consideration.

Sincerely

Beverly Johnston

The customer service skills of the early morning staff at the Planet Fitness in Clinton Township Michigan leaves a lot to be desired. It's rare that they are at the front desk if you have a concern and when they are the level of customer service is extremely poor. I do understand that bubbling over with enthusiasm isn't a criterion for the front desk, but...
