Legal Assistance with Gym Subscriptions

Questioner

I have been a member of a gym for 15 years and pay automatic direct debit annually. Now I want to change gyms, there is a one-month notice period, my contract expires on January 1, 2018. Now the gym owner says, fine, but you will lose the remaining number of months. Is this allowed?

Lawyer

A subscription can be cancelled monthly. You no longer have to pay the subscription costs. If you wish, you can contact us without any obligation.

Questioner

Thank you, but I have already paid for a year, that is the subscription This is automatically renewed every year. Now I want to switch to another gym but I have already paid until 1-1-2918. I want to get my remaining amount back so cancel now, pay in August and get it refunded in September, October, November and December.

Lawyer

Because you no longer wish to use the service, you do not have to pay. The gym owner must reverse the contribution for the remaining months. This is enforceable. If you wish, you can contact us without any obligation.
