Predatory behavior
Several days ago I called about my account charge and was told someone would call me back. They never did. So I called to cancel and they told me I had to email with a certain number. After emailing someone for help they told me I was charged $60 for a yearly enhancement fee. I absolutely positively was not verbally told about that fee at sign up. I would have never signed up if that was the case. Hiding that in a contract is absolutely insane. When I asked for my contract they told me I need to call my club to get that. I call the club and a dude tells me he would be happy to send me my contract. But he ultimately put me on hold for several minutes until a rude man answered. New guy scoffed and made me explain the entire situation AGAIN. He begrudgingly agrees to send me the contract. When I asked when I will receive the email he says “I don’t know. I hope right away but you never know. Ciao.” It’s a loop of corporate saying call your gym for agreement and gym refusing to give it to you. After getting zero help from crystal lake I got an email from corporate saying “Your account has been set to cancel with nothing further due. You will have club access until 5/14/2026. I apologize but we are unable to waive any scheduled payments.” Well guess what as of 4/28/26 I have a NEW $64 charge. Per email “We have received your email. Upon review, the $64.99 charge consists of a late fee dated 02/22/2026 and your monthly due of $34.99 from 04/15/2026.” I had canceled my credit card and was in the process of moving my subscriptions to new card. This company is a scam and I am hopeful to be a part of a massive lawsuit one of these days. You can’t get away with such predatory behavior forever. Karma will eventually catch up.
