Again... why signing up for a gym is like buying a car.
So today I signed up at EOS fitness. It's the closest gym to my house. $1 initial fee, $49 annual fee and $10/mo. Ok, I can deal with that. I go to sign up and they say, we need your checking account to do an ACH debit each month.
Can we do a credit card? Let me ask my manager. I'm pretty sure she fake texts/calls her manager. It's 9pm at night right now. She comes back, he said ok we can take a credit card.
I act shocked like she did me a great favor and say oh that's great because I was about to go to another gym.
I mean come on, we know the drill. A member can dispute a CC charge if they keep charging them for forgetting to cancel. But an ACH debit? Much harder to stop it or get your money back.
