California fitness – 又一黑店


因為上年其中一個我的新年願望是‘身體健康’,於是年頭時去入會California fitness,打算迫自己做下運動;其實正常精明的消費者都明白到個‘講價遊戲’如何運作,亦會做足功課才去,結果都要浪費我三個鐘頭的時間,最後預繳簽了三年會籍合約,另加鞋櫃一年。




明知佢地D教練堂搵人笨的,所以我只是去跑步和上團體課,一直相安無事。不過期間我因為身體理由要暫停會籍三個月,當時負責的職員告訴我,鞋櫃也會同時暫停,所以要我即時清理並帶走內裡的私人物件。


一年眨下眼便過去,但前兩天我突然收到California fitness的電話,話我的鞋櫃已到期,我十分奇怪,因為明明尚有三個月使用期的,哪知道那職員竟回答會籍是有暫停,不過鞋櫃是不能暫停的,哪究竟是什麼道理呀?那三個月我都沒有使用過那鞋櫃卻又要我付租費,這簡直是騙人加搶錢啦。我立刻翻查手上的合約,發現原來會籍是無‘Definition’的,即是話如果California fitness突然對任何服務如毛巾,廁所,飲水要另外收費的話,會員是不得‘異議’的。


實在太過份了!我要求跟當時處理我暫停會籍的職員對質,是她說鞋櫃是可以暫停的,亦是她要求我清理鞋櫃的。但如我所料,該職員已離職了,所以死無對證。我又要求見Manager但被拒絕,因為這是公司指引,見唔見Manager都是同樣處理手法,即一定是要我吃虧啦!


於是我又打去California fitness的客戶服務熱線投訴,又得出另一版本,佢話那三個月我要付租費的原因,是由於鞋櫃內仍保存了私人物件,但明明是有人叫我清走哂D野,那三個月我都完全沒有使用過,現在是California fitness的職員出錯誤導我,但California fitness是不會負責任的,因為該職員已離職啦,真係無野好講


其實California fitnessSales一直都是臭名遠播,除了入會費海鮮價外,他們又是短期工,所以出錯講大話都不用負責任,總之簽約前乜都得,入會後就乜都唔得。那些私人教練亦是超級麻煩,每一個月都會打電話來問下做咩咁耐唔黎做下運動呀?關你鬼事咩。有時明明我在跑步機上都跑到喘哂氣,還要走來騷擾我,問我最近進度如何,要不要私人教練呀?我唔駛人睇住我做運動架。有同事試過私人教練堂,先是個教練會遲到十五分鐘,教了半個鐘就話要十五分鐘cool down,所以一個鐘既堂其實只有三十分鐘,實在是超級搵笨。



唉,仲有兩年才落得番隻賊船,希望其他朋友能夠小心D啦!

  1. Thank you for disclosing their bad services!
    [Lenny回覆12/12/2011 21:59:40]Recently I noticed that the PT quietly deduct 3 hour sessions from my records on their computer files for 0 or 1 session that i actually obtained without my approval or with my clear indication that i do not accept such dealings. i didnt call police, but instead, the staffs just all keep trying to ask me spend more money infinitely. i would open a new PT contract $1xxxx, and after 2 sessions within less than 1 month, they would apply pressure to force me sign a bigger one. they drive me mad and if i blow up at them, they call the police and freeze my whole $50000 paid membership and services.

  8. I got cheated by them the other day as well. I can't believe such a large fitness group would be so irresponsible regarding their "selling method". I was promised an installment plan but they ended up charging me the PT lessons at once. I confronted with their manager, she said there was nothing she could do. I ended up call the police and reported to the consumer council. I know I was stupid enough to fall for it but just hard to believe they would do such thing...
    [版主回覆08/19/2012 19:13:29]係呀,佢地成日做埋D唔合理的行為,之後就會唔認數話無得處理,確實都幾恐怖架...

  9. I understand your dissatisfaction. I was also lied to by one of the trainers there. After signing up, he disappeared and did not finish the lesson plan or the things he guaranteed before paying. I would not renew my membership or recommend anyone to join the club.
    [版主回覆09/06/2012 17:55:16]Yup, they simply disappear after cheating you... that's crazy...

新加坡公幹之旅 -- JW Marriot South Beach Singapore (1)

因為會議在Suntec City舉辦,所以我訂了附近的JW Marriot South Beach Singapore入住。酒店走型格路線,四周和內部都佈置了三尖八角又脆弱的藝術精品,實在不太適合有幼兒的家庭入住。 房間十分寬敞,不過裝潢陰陰沈沈我不太喜歡,牆上又有些奇怪圖形的畫...
