Cancel anytime fitness gym membership

Members are able to cancel or freeze by contacting the customer service line (800-922-7898), coming into their local club, or even simply calling the club phone number to make these changes.

It is important you do not cancel your Direct Debit instruction, as this is processed automatically at the end of your membership term. Cancelling your Direct Debit instruction can lead to a delay in processing your membership cancellation and further charges may be applied.

"Gym club contracts are drafted in such a way as to not allow a person to quit without suffering a penalty," says Reischer. He explains that gym club contracts are legally binding, and can only be breached when the terms of the contract are unconscionable or otherwise specifically prohibited by law.

You'll normally have to pay the full cost of your contract if you want to cancel a gym membership early. For example, if you cancel a one-year contract after 6 months, you'll usually have to pay for the remaining 6 months. Check your contract for details to find out how much you'll have to pay if you cancel early.
