immature employees
I have been a member at planet fitness for a very long time, and do enjoy working out there, except the last few times i have been there, one of the employees a tall long brown haired girl, i believe her name is britney, she has been hanging all over one of the trainers in a red shirt, he is a short young man... what upset me the most was she kept...
Read full review of Planet Fitness and 2 commentsBad service and terrible policies
After additional fees appeared on my bank statement I called to inquire. I was treated so disrespectfully that I was shocked. This company can send me emails daily about upgrades and getting friends and family to join, but doesn't notify me of an additional charge, then berates me for asking about it. When I asked if they cared about what a bad customer...

I will be calling all the local news channels to see who will come out to cover this story.
I joined a world gym in franklin mass, last month, paid 140.00 for sign up and 40.00 for the first month for me and my husband. I joined the gym for the classes and the day care.
On the first of the next month they changed the gym to planet fitness, keep in mind they are the same owners. The took the classes away and the day care. When I called for a refund they refused. My attorney is writting a letter as of Saturday and I will start to call the owners every day until I get my refund. They had over 300 members cancel and alot of locals not happy with them at all.
Just out of co-insidence they took out of everyone's debit or credit cards on the 1st of the month and put the new name up on the 2nd of the month. Taking everything out of the gym by the end of the week.
They are the biggest pigs I know.
They started a world storm with me.
This is just the beginning.
It's not the money, it's the principle
accounting/membership
Planet Fitness has to be investigated for their illegal accounting practices. They continue to charge my card for the past SEVEN months although I have cancelled my membership last October. Due to immediate relocation I have not used the gym even once. I have spoken to them several times over the phone, sent cancellation letters by mail and by fax. They...

Please do not joint Planet Fitness in Orange CT. The manager and the staff are very rude and they all need customer service training. One employee called me up after having a me being unhappy with there service after I call the corp office. She said I want to hear your side. I am sorry but there is no side I am the customer. She then said I was going to offer you something. I don't want it! The worst customer service... Don't waste your money on them.
I fully agree, Orange UK has most incompetent and rude customer services staff. I just got mu contract wit them they sent me a fault phone I returned the phone back to them and I have the Royal mail delivery confirmation receipt. I called them every day morning, afternoon, evening they say they phone is not on their system, I said the phone is deliver and confirmed received by Orange and I provided them the proof they still couldn't trace the phone every call they give me stories to call later in the afternoon etc. etc. finally when they managed to track the phone they handed me over to their rudest customer service guy I think he was drunk the way he was talking and he when I started to tell him my history and the crap service from Orange he started shouting at me and threatened to cancel my contract and put the phone down one me! I have checked online and it looks like I'm not the only one who suffer from Orange's rude customer services staff. My advise do not deal with them it is not worth it go to a phone company who is willing to help and listen to its customers!
scam charges!
I was a member with Planet Fitness for the year July [protected] I signed up for a one year program. I relocated to another state before leaving I properly signed out my membership paper work.

Awful!
A peeping tom was arrested for video taping people getting changed! It was in all the papers!
I went to cancel my membership and the manager charged me a cancellation fee! I said you hired a peeping tom, I want my money back. She said sorry! A very nasty manager.
She should be fired along with the peeping tom.
Lookout, you might see yourself changing your clothes on YouTube!
BEHAVIOR
I WENT IN DECEMBER 19, 2007 TO PLANET FITNESS TO SIGN FOR A MEMBER SHIP FOR MY DAUGHTER. SO ONE OF THE STAFF CAME TO HELP ME TO SIGN UP. WE SAT DOWN AND STARTED GOING THROUGH THE TYPE OF PLANES THAT THEY HAD AND THEY TOLD ME ABOUT THE BLACK PLAN, SO I TOOK IT. THAT SAME DAY THE START UP FEE WAS $38.15, SO I PAYED FOR IT. BUT THEN THE STAFF LADY TOLD ME THAT I HAD TO HAVE A CHECKING ACOUNT BUT I DIDN'T HAVE MY CARD WITH ME. THE STAFF TOLD ME THAT SHE WOULD HAVE TO CANCEL IT AND DO IT ALL OVER UNTIL I COME BACK NEXT TIME. AND SINCE I ALREADY GAVE THE MONEY SHE SAID SHE WOULD HOLD THE MONEY AND JUST GIVE MY THE RECEIT TO SHOW THAT I ALREDY PAYED FOR IT. BUT THE PROBLEM IS NOT ABOUT HER, IT IS ABOUT THE MANAGER. I WENT TO PLANET FITNESS TODAY (DECEMBER 26,2007) AND I HAD TO SIT DOWN WITH THE STAFF SINCE I HAD TO SIGH FOR A NEW PLAIN. AFTER SHE FINISHED EVERY THING SHE TOLD ME THAT I WOULD PAY LESS MONEY THEN BEFORE. I SAID OK. I THEN ASKED HER FOR THE DIFFERENCE AND WHEN SHE CAME BACK SHE TOLD ME THAT THE MANAGER SAID NO. SO I WENT TO THE FRONT DESK TO TALK TO THE MANEGER TO DESCUSS ABOUT THE REST OF THE MONEY. THE ONLY PROBLEM WAS WHEN I WAS TALKING TO HIM HE STARTED RASING HIS VOICE AND WAS MAKE BAD JOKES ABOUT ME ASKING ME IF I WANTED WATER TO REPLACE THE MONEY. I SAID NO. AND HE KEPT JOKING SAYING DIFFERENT JOKES ABOUT ME. I REALLY DIDN'T LIKE IT. I FELT REALLY INSULTED AND ALOT OF DISSRESPECT. AS A MANAGER INCHARGE OF A PLACE AND STAFF BEHIND HIM WATCHING, HE SHOULD SET A GOOD EXAMPLE TO SHOW HOW TO HANDLE A SITUATION LIKE THIS. AS A FIRST TIME CUSTUMER I EXSPECTED MORE THAN WHAT I GOT. ESPECIALLY FROM A MANAGER. AND I THINK THAT A PERSON ACTING LIKE THAT TO A CUSTUMER SHOULD NOT BE INCHARGE. I HOPE THAT YOU TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY IN CONSIDERATION.
THANK YOU

be careful when quiting this gym!
I had to quit Planet Fitness in Loudeville, NY because I moved. I mailed them the certified letter as asked and I received the receipt card showing that someone in the Planet Fitness Company had signed for the letter on Oct. 1, 2007. I called a few days later to check and make sure they would no longer be charging my card. Somehow I still got charged for...

On 04/23/07 I enter the gym in the location about and I didn’t have my card. this is not he first time I didn’t have my card and was shocked when the guy at the counter (sean) told me “you need your card.” oh dear he tell a paying customer they need anything. I then told sean I need nothing. he then said “I will cancel your membership then.” upset and appalled I called you’re the general manger, and left my cell number for a call back. I was surprised that while sitting at my desk at work she called my office number and left the rudest tone message I have ever heard. I called her back and she (debra) informed me that my membership was canceled as if she was doing me a favor by having me. beware of rude staff and manager!
Good evening, I’m writing because is about 10 equipment unserviceable. It’s been more than 3 weeks and still they haven’t fix it. The personnel in charge in the gym they keep saying they are waiting on the mechanic. This is the plannet gym in Guaynabo PR. [protected]
Tattered and torn ropes on equipment. I brought the faulty equipment to the attention of management. They assured me that new equipment parts were ordered and should arrive very soon. This has not happened. Still the same worn out equipment. NEED HELP RESOLVING THIS ISSUE.
The experience on the gym in Salem, Oregon is awful.
The mens showers don't work most of the time, even after been reported almost everyday. The inside temperature is too hot, they turn on the ventilation, making you sweat and uncomfortable. Also the staff is not friendly.
An Advertisement of being a “judgement free” zone yet having a sign that is judgmental?
“ LUNK ALARM
Lunk (lunk) n. [slang] one who grunts, drops weights or judges.
[Ricky is slamming his weights, wearing a body building tank top and drinking out of a gallon water jug... what a lunk]”
Bad business!
There are a limited amount of stairmills at the location I go to and one has been broken for about 2 weeks and has not been fixed. This results in waiting to use the machines and delays completion of workouts. I asked the desk person and they said they had to wait for the owner to do something,

I have been a member for many years, Recently the gym located in Hemet California installed new treadmills that are totally inappropriate for older members like myself. They are too high up and the rails do not extend for getting off the treadmill. This is age discrimination which is illegal.
downgraded memership charged 39. in march and then a 49.00 fee in sept. i cant stand this place time to go bye bye!
I’m having an immediate issues with the employee with long hair and a woman that was working Wednesday 8/30/2023 at 4 pm at lake st location I was very uncomfortable with the way the situation went to hell quickly. I was kicked out of the building cause I answered my phone. Tooo much drama at that location. Always the same employees

I feel the same way they are evil people who care only about the money and not there customers. Bad business.
I also completely agree that it is about the principal and not so much the money any more.
Also, it is really shady that planet fitness owns world gym and it was a world gym for about a year? Shadiness!
