I went into a one year contract with Club Metro on Dec 3rd of 2013. I decided that at the end of the year I would discontinue membership so I stopped payment after my December, 2014 payment was sent. I later received two letters advising that I owed them a total of 61.08  because my billing payment had declined in Jan and ayment for February which is 29.00. Upon calling ABC financial I was informed that I had initialed at the bottom of the contract which meant I had agreed to the terms and conditions which included automatic contract renewal. I also called Club Metro in Newark to tell them that I had called and was told I owed nothing and my contract was up before I proceeded to stop payment. I was told by a female representative  they dont accept verbal cancellations and I would still be billed monthly until the written cancellation was sent thirty days in advance.

No Response From Club Metro USA

AUTHOR: - ()

POSTED: Saturday, March 07, 2015

So forty days and seven emails later and no word yet from Club Metro USA in regards to the additional fees I am being charged after the end of my twelve month contract. I was recently made aware that since March 3rd my current balance due has increased because no payment was made. According to Ms Stephanie Cook my emails to her were forwarded to the gym for review. I know that I am not the only victim of this atrocity and disregard for hard earned money. I encourage others like myself to step forward and make known what is being done by Club Metro and ABC Financial. Why are they being allowed to get away with this? Let the Better Business Bureau know they are more likely to respond to 199 complaints as opposed to one.

It's definitely a blame game between Club Metro and ABC Financial as to which party is responsible for the racked up billing. According to an ABC representative "ABC is just the third party Biller" and Club Metro should be contacted regarding cancellation. These people are highly trained on how to push consumers around and underhandedly tie them into situations they have no desire of being in. Club Metro even went as far as to offer me discounted membership of 19.95 monthly along with a free Personal Trainer and all the frills attached but said they were in no position to waive the fees that ABC billed me for in the months after my contract was up.
