Zone Fitness
Reviews and Complaints

i was at zone fitness willow bridge on Friday the 9th of December 2022 the gym is very hot the air con is not working properly they have buckets to catch the water dripping from aircon and they keep all windows close so that no fresh air can come in, when i complaint about it to a fitness instructor he was very unhelpful and unfriendly and was pointing this finger at me while talking to me, i think his name is steven or stevie...if that is his real name, he is in his late 40's with gouty and ear rings in each ear...can the management please do something about this these people working at zone fitness willow bridge should be address.

I have joined Zone Fitness at Trade Route Mall, I haven't attended the gym longer than a week, due to not being satisfied with the gym, I've requested that my membership be cancelled, the members at the gym kept telling me to contact the person who had signed me up (Kiesha) who has been on leave at the time of the request, I've made a few more attempts trying to contact her with no luck, I then gave up, a year later I receive a call stating that I have been handed over to attorneys and I owe an amount of over 3k, which is totally unfair, how can I be paying for services which I have not even used, nor services which could not be cancelled, this is a scam, and I would definitely take further action against them as well as advise all the people in my area to stay away from these people, they are crooks, I have a few friends at the local newspaper who I will make sure that the word goes out and no one else experiences the same scam

Today my husband was about to sign up along with my son, whose been waiting months for blue route branch to open. I had my two younger onds with and fully understand that children should not touch the equipment for safety reasons. We then just went to the area where zumba is planned to take place, the gym hasnt opened yet so none of the equipment was being used nor customers besides new sign ups. A guy from head office (as the staff said) Johnathan Titus kept telling staff that my kids shouldn't be in the gym, or touch the doors or anything, i was so irritated that he couldn't say anything to me but walk like a little weak weasel around, i told my husband not to sign up and told the sales manager my frustration and explained that i kept my children out of site while my husband signed up himself and our eldest son, even while i was venting to the sales manager, that Jonathan guy was looking and kept weaseling to his colleagues, my husband who is a sales manager as well went back and explained to him how to deal with customers but he responded like a complete untrained person who didnt work to get his position, so to him losing two customers is what he thinks but i will tell everyone i know about the bad experience we encountered. Zone fitness sucks, and has no customer compassion nor trained operation managers, clearly just people who thinks working at head office makes them better.

I am a member at the zonefitness parow centre on the 5th I forgot my tight in the locker room and one of the people I gym with took it in and gave it to the ATF’s at zonefitness parrow to keep for me and Thursday morning the 6th I asked them to give the gym tight that they were given to keep for me and it turned out that the gym tight was stolen from their lost and found lockers possible by one of the workers since they keep the keys with them. I was asked to produce slip of the tight and I told them the tight was bought Dec 2020 and I went to total sport and they printed out the slip but they could not print it out with full description to state black total sport tight but it is only written Total sport women with the price of the tight. So now I fail to understand if total sport cannot be able to print out the slip with proper details because their system does not allow them since it was two years back why then is it becoming a problem for the gym to sort that out. Truly I am disappointed that people can steal from their clients and then at the end of the day make it our problem if we cannot provide proper details of what they looking for. I would like to know if this is how you deal with theft at your gyms that your staff steal from us then we get to suffer the consequences

It has reached a point where I am sick and tired and I will come and bomb your facilities.

I think in 2018 i took up membership at a mall, it was a Saturday and right the following Monday i called the office to cancel, don't remember the number. I spoke with a lady and told her i am cancelling this membership as i wont be able to reach the premises as I thought i would. The lady said i need to submit a blue paper i received upon application. I told her lost that thing as i was at a mall doing my shopping. she said no, u cant cancel without the paper. i said but i don't have this and she refused for me to cancel.

i have never been to any of the zone fitness premises and I did cancel. now i am handed to lawyers for collections.

I will not be paying a dine, this is fraud. I am harrassed day in day out by collectors telephone, sms and email. for something I cancelled and never enjoyed.

If i have to choose violence here i will.

In 2019 I was found via MRI to have a brain tumor and had to undergo brain surgery to remove it. That operation left me with some physical problems like decreased eyesight, sporadic weak leg balance, decreased immune system (due to permanent use of Hydrocotisone prescribed tablets). I found out that my whole family has been blacklisted because it slipped out of my mind to cancel my gym contract. Of cause in my condition I can no longer drive to Promenade in Mitchells Plain. I could not continue with the gym in that physical state up until now. My daughter is harassed by Zone Fitness because she is blacklisted as she is my dependent. This complaint serves to also notify Zone Fitness to nullify my debt and also cancel my contract.

Furthermore, there are too many members of zone fitness residing in Khayelitsha, who spend a lot of money just travelling to the gym.

Good Day

ABOUT ZONEFITNESS "Zone Fitness is based on the truth that every single person should be able to efficiently and effectively reach their fitness goals and that the process of getting strong and healthy should be one that’s fun and frill-free."

At this moment I do not feel like I am having fun no more! We are clients of Zone Fitness Cobble walk, enjoy our Thursday Evenings & Saturday Mornings Zumba classes, 1 Hour ONLY! We have asked many times why we can't stay longer on Saturday morning, at the end we are paying clients, but if we do so, the Manager of Cobble Walk is not happy if we go over time at all, we pay for Zumba but 2hours a week only? it's really becoming an issue week after week, I am starting to think did I make the right choice? We as a whole group discussed this last night as said our Saturday Class is really too short, we would really enjoy an extended time.

Another question is, we pay each month without skipping one payment, NOT one! but yet in class in Cobble Walk the aircones are not working at all, its always stuffy and extremely hot there, the floor is constantly sticky.

Please can I request that I get feedback soon on this.

what I do not like about this gym they did not ask anything about the payment date they just used the date before I got my allowance from school so not now

I have to pay more than I was signed for and the allowed me to sign contract when I was under age and I did know anything about the contract that I signed for the consultant just told me sign a contract without explaining anything from me NOW WHEN I WANT TO CANCE THE ASRE TALKING ABOUT CANCELLATION FEE

Zone fitness ran a befit order off my account without authorization. Without my consent and without a contract. I've not been contacted about this, other than receiving multiple text messages demanding payment for an account I do not have, whilst indicating that I am in arrears. Furthermore, I do not have any relationship with the company and when I call in I am told to contact Planet Fitness, whilst Planet fitness tells me to Contact Zone Fitness. This is reckless and I am in the process of purchasing a home, and this will affect my credit record.

Please send to me your email address so u can forward the chats to you between Sakeena and Myself. After I asked her for a mandate she blocked me. Because whatever debit orders are coming off. There is no valid mandate in my name or daughters. As my daughters was cancelled as per the calls by Marvin. This manipulation on Marvin's Side has cause great conflict. After extreme unprofessional behaviour by the representatives of Zone fitness Cape quarters. I would be shameful to even continue any relationship with any zone fitness.

I would like to report the Manager in Pretoria branch who recently join the branch for two months, I would like to report that he doesn’t know how to deal with customers when they need assistance in the gym such attitude towards made me Never to join Zonefitness every. If this is the manner he treats me what will happen when I have zone.

Good day...I joined zone fitness around October,under someone..which I asked her to cancel my membership for me ..i payed the three months and I stop because of unemployment crisis..I didn't pay for 7 months ...now am being harrassed by debitors . asking me to pay for amount of money that I don't understand that how I got there ... it's too much and am just a student and unemployed ..no allowance...I even asked them to send me Bank statement that explains how did I reach in that amount of money I owe you

Where can we report this branch?

Can someone else who is more superior please contact me, I would really want to address our issues at that branch. The manager seems not to resolve our concerns and things are getting worse in that club. Yesterday the staff members were drinking in side the branch , the music was loud and they were doing all those funny dances in front of us.

We were being chased out even before the time.

This is not the first and the last time manager called me and he promised to sort things out but he never did.

The machines are broken, HAYBO I do understand that the gym is full of darkies but we deserve better service as other branches do!

I need someone else to contact me not the branch manager as he is just there and useless! This branch needs to be addressed!

my email address is [protected]@yahoo.com

My daughter went to sign up at zone fitness cape quarters.

They asked her to bring a friend.

She then cancelled the original contract.

Sakeena and Marvin started harrassing her.

I went in to co sign up with her.

Sakeena cancelled my daughters contract infront of me.

They do not have a signed mandate to deduct monies off any of our accounts.

I have a WhatsApp chat to prove this. I refuse for now to lay a charge at the police station with Zone fitness for unprofessional behaviour and abuse.

I need someone to explain to me, my account was handed over, but the amount that was handed over is not the amount i owe you guys and no1 is willing to explain it to me, can someone explain to me about ur handing over process.I signed 24 months contract i payed 18 months, from May till November i didn't pay, so i owe that period but number are contradicting, R225+R30 extra costs ×6= R1710, i just need clearity because i didn't sign up for this, Iwant to pay off my debt but i can't now its too much.

I made a payment in advance as I knew I had a lot to do at the end of the month but zone fitness still took the money after I already paid and now all of a sudden i'm owing R190! how can that be possible when i set up a direct debit the money to be deducted every month and now i'm owing you R190!

I want to cancel this contract because it's stressful and a disgrace, I cannot be associated with such!

Good day, I recently got a transfer to George/ Mossel bay and contacted the Coblle walk branch to cancel my Contract as there are no facilities of these gym's in this area. I am very upset that I was told I have to pay a cancellation fee but wanted to stay a member if there was a gym this side. It surely is not my fault that there is no Gym this side and therefore I feel that I should get the benefit of the doubt. So please take note that if I do not get a positive response I will have no other solution but to contact the ombudsman to resolve this.

I say again, if there was a gym this side I would carry on with the contarct which expires in FEB 2023. I am not in a position to find some body to take over the contract as I have re located to George already.

Your speedy response will be appreciated please

Kind Regards

Johan Nel
