PLEASE HELP! How do I cancel my Golds Gym Membership Contract?
I have a Golds contract for 2 years I cant afford to pay since I dont have a job anymore and I would like to cancel problem is the only way I can cancel is if I move 25 miles away from any Golds Gym location or if i transfer my membership to someone else, both transferring to someone else and canceling both cost $100 I cant find someone to transfer it to and that I am not moving.
I was promised 2 free months July and August off the first two year contract, so of course I didnt pay it and soon after I started getting collection calls. After that I started having them deduct it from my checking's card but that got canceled after I lost my job.
I havent paid for Decembers payment which was due last week and now I am getting calls again from this place called Paramount Acceptance.
Ive read around online that if you give them a fake lease agreement stating that you moved 25 miles away from the nearest Golds Gym and the $100 dollars for canceling they'll cancel it.
Is that true because if it is I am willing to do that. What would I have to do exactly If i do decide to do that.
Would I have to Call them and give them the information or would I have to email or fax them all that information, how do I go about in doing this please help I cant afford to pay this.
Ive read stories online were people have canceled with a fake lease and been able to do it and that they never checked up on it
Also ive called and tried to cancel the I told the lady I talked to that I didnt have a job and couldn't pay anymore she told me she didnt care and that If i didnt pay It would go to collections that if i transfer it to some one or move 25 miles away from one that that would be the only way to cancel.
Also went to the gym and they told me to call corporate which is when I talked to that lady
Ive gone to the golds gym website i went to the gym to cancel in person they told me that I have to call corporate which I did and when I talked to someone they told me to either transfer it to someone or move 25 miles away from a golds gym
My mom has agreed to pay it but I dont want her to because im afraid they will take her checking information and start to take it out automatically through that, im thinking of buying a pre paid debit card and have them bill it through there i honestly have no idea what to do please help
I am willing to try anything to get out of this ive even thought about getting myself kicked out of the place

Each gym has procedures for membership cancellations, no cancellations will be accepted on this website or by email. You will want to contact your gym for information on how to cancel, or refer to your membership agreement for additional instructions.
To find the phone number or address of your gym, please visit goldsgym.com's online Gym Locator. For fastest initial response, contact the location by phone to discuss the cancellation process.

Take a look at your contract that you received when you joined. There should be a section on there about what to do in order to cancel the contract. They normally want something in writing sent to their corporate office.
I wouldn't resort to the fake lease agreement. That's underhanded. You should be able to legally terminate this contract.
Good luck.

Ask them for the contract that you have signed. Tell them that you want a copy of it. In my friend's case, they are not showing the contract that they signed. If they are not ready to give you the contract which you signed, you can file a case against them. Why should you pay when they dont even have the contract that you signed. First ask them to send you the contract that you signed. Hope this works for you...
Good luck..

You'll need to send them actual documents. However, they may mail forms to your "new address" and you'd potentially be committing mail fraud. Just want you to know you would potentially be committing a federal offense.
I'm sorry for your situation, but you signed a contract.
