Gym won't let you cancel?

Or follow the free steps below ↓

Free steps

1. Check your contract for the cancellation method (in person, by mail, online) and the notice period.
2. Send a written cancellation by a trackable method (certified mail or email) and keep proof.
3. Ask your bank or card issuer to stop future recurring payments if charges continue after the notice period.
4. If the gym still bills you, dispute the charge with your card issuer and file a complaint with your state attorney general or the BBB.

Free letter you can copy

I am writing to cancel my membership, account number [MEMBER NUMBER], effective immediately or at the end of my notice period on [DATE]. Please stop all future charges and confirm the cancellation in writing within 10 days. I have kept a copy of this letter as proof that I asked to cancel.

Replace the highlighted fill-in fields with your details. Send it yourself from your own email or by mail.

What an independent advocate does (and doesn't)

• Does: reviews your situation, writes a tailored letter, tells you exactly what to send and say, and plans next steps if the company stalls.
• Doesn't: pretend to be the company, log in to your accounts, ask for passwords or card numbers, give legal advice or guarantee a refund.

Pricing

• The fee is agreed with you before any work starts. No surprise charges.
• Calling us to ask questions is free. You only pay if you choose paid help.
• We never ask for passwords, one-time codes, PINs or full card numbers.
