Fitness First (Thread 2)

[superpinya]

^ how much b running rate nila ngayon ? Diba 2890 din talaga? Did they improve the facility? Shucks, I need to workout badly but I cannot commit to a  9 month contract...At most around 3 months lang at first kc loaded din ako sa work.

Yes sis! 2890 monthly pa rin for 1 year conrtact plus yung one time fees. then, 3600+ for the 5-month contract plus one time fees? Not so sure about the 5-month contract though.

Naku sis! Yan din problem ko! Nagiba kase ng role at loc yung work ko. Madaling araw na natatapos kaya di na talaga kaya, need pa namen magextend. Sayang Pinafreeze ko na nga lang e kaya stuck siya sa 7 months, may fee pa rin per month pero good thing na hindi ko na binabayaran in full every month.

[pretty_in_white]

^ 20% parin ba siya ng monthly fees mo? I do the treadmill na nga Lang at home dati mababa lang monthly dues ko, sister ko nga member pa rin.

[superpinya]

Yes sis! 20% pa rin. how much yung sayo dati?

At least sis naisisingit mo pa rin tumakboooo! Maa okay na rin kesa walaa at all.. haaay, sana gumaan gaan na rin workload soon.

[pretty_in_white]

Less than 2,000 ako before, I was even the lucky ones who got the 1500 b yun. I make time talaga to exercise!

From ff platinum rcbc here. okay naman dun. Generally, mas konti tao altho mas marami sya ng early morning kaysa mga 9am. Happy member here fr almost 3 years kasi helpful and friendly both the members and the trainers!

[yabbikins]

Mga sis, may marereccommend ba kayong PT sa FF Makati?

[dreamweaver83]

@meimei - I signed up at RCBC and I really enjoyed the classes especially yung Body Pump and Body Jam, RPM also but I enjoy Body Jam more and usually sabay sila ng schedule. One month into my membership, I found out I'm pregnant and my doctor ordered me to stop working out because I've had a miscarriage. Now problem ko to sell my membership na since sobra naman if I pay the freeze fee for the next 8 months.

My housemates and I will start our workout on Monday sa Fitness First SM Aura. We all need to really workout na din. We got the 18 months lock in period. Just very excited.

[superpinya]

sisses, anyone interested to get my passport membership in FF? Let me know po! PM me so we can talk po or text 09228837329 since di ko po madalas macheck to.. may 7 months pa ako.

[Iamtynexo]

Hi mga sis! Anyone interested to continue my passport Fitness first membership? I still have 10 months. Can't continue na because of work load and financial na din. Sm Pampanga home branch ko. Just text me, 09175061906 so we can talk about payments po,

[superpinya]

Ang ganda ng rcbc branch of FF! I wemt there when I transsferred my membership. Wula lungz, ang ganda! My friend has one up for transfer din, in case anyone else is interested. You may contact her, 09228081925. Thanks!

[mischa04]

Me too, I need someone na mapapagtransferan ng platinum account ko.. I signed up for 5 months. Bale pag transfer ko ng account ikaw na po magtutuloy ng monthly dues na P4k using credit card.. yung membership may kasamang body first, meaning may 3 free sessions with a trainer..tapos on your 4th month marerefund mo rin yung P2100 na bayad sa body first or ipabawas mo na sa bill on that month para bumaba rin yung babayaran mo on that month..nabayaran ko na po yun, pero ikaw po makikinabang ng refund.. sa June 1 ang start.. last night lang ako nag signed up sa Trinoma branch, unfortunately I can't push thru because of some instances.. Since platinum naman pwede naman sa ibang branch ng FF mag gym if ever ..

Message me pls if interested..sayang kasi..thanks!

[mischa04]

Reading this thread nagulat ako may mababa naman palang membership, bakit sakin ang inoffer lang ay yung 5k+ tapos sa monthly dues ay yung 4k - 5 mos contract, 3,800 - 12 mos, at 3,500 - 18 mos. Ang daya may mababa naman pala.. tsk tsk.. Saka bakit yung body first nung iba 3mos na may trainer, eh yung akin 3 sessions lang..[textspeak!] ba yan..

Now, I'm stuck with my membership, so gagamitin ko nalang kahit papano kesa masayang ibabayad ko.. I need gym buddy rin para di boring at may kasama.. sino ang sa FF trinoma?

[_AiaH_]

^ sis FF trinoma? so platinum club member ka? that's probably why it's more expensive. lowest rates talaga ng platinum club members are 3k+. because of the perks narin daw.

anyway, i work out at FF north edsa. blue membership kasi akin. i can be your gym buddy

[mischa04]

Hi sis Aiah, thank you Yes platinum yung membership ko, i recently learned nga na mas expensive pag platinum and hindi talaga nag offer ng iba yung trinoma kasi platinum lang sila. Ano pala yung blue membership? 

I have a problem nga eh, binigyan ako ng physician's approval form kasi may heart condition ako, yung nag sales sakin pinipilit ako mag sign dun sa parang waiver na nakalagay na i don't want to seek a physician's approval and therefore FF will not be responsible for any death,injury, etc. na mangyari sakin. Syempre i didn't sign it, sabi ko i'm willing to seek my physician's approval kaya di ko yan pipirmahan. Then pumayag sya at pinadala sakin yung form. Dinala ko na sa doctor ko yung form, kaso ang nilagay nya unfit daw ako na mag gym because of my condition, kahit na inexplain na ng doc ko na kahit licensed PT pa hahawak sakin, still di pwede.

Before i signed up, sinabi ko na dun sa FF yung condition ko, i even asked them kung need ko magpasa ng med cert. pero sabi nila no need daw. So i signed up at tinanggap nila ko, yun naman pala kaya no need for med cert kasi papipirmahin ako ng waiver. My point lang, sana sinabi nila agad sakin bago ko nag sign up na hindi nila ko hihingan ng med cert provided i will sign a waiver or i don't want to sign a waiver then give your med cert and physician's approval first, para napag isipan ko. Ngayon i can't use the gym hanggang di ko binabalik yung form.

Nilagay ng doc ko unfit, so di pwede, so pinapa-sign sakin yung waiver, eh ayoko rin. Now i don't know what to do, nakaltas na yung dues ko for this month ng hindi ko naman nagagamit

Ganon ba talaga sistema ng FF, sigurista masyado..

[_AiaH_]

^ yes sis. honestly somewhat deceitful ang strategies ng mga sales managers nila. alam mo ba na 2 weeks ako nmroblema because i wanted so badly to cancel my membership dahil narin sa DAMI ng pinangako nila na WALA naman ako nahita. long story short, I wanted the membership but I opted to have it transferred to a different branch. I honestly felt saksakan ng sinungaling mga sales and mga tao ng FF.

It's a good thing you didn't sign the waiver. Now, what you do is you insist on cancelling the membership and have the charges reversed. Eh nainform mo naman pala sila, they still made you sign eh. so now may medical condition ka, you cannot use the membership. my advice, do not allow them to tell you to find someone na you can transfer the membership to. they will, as much as they possibly can, try to put their hold on you as a member. In this case, talk to the club manager directly regarding your concern. It's VALID talaga. This should be ground for cancellation of your membership. If they won't budge, tell them na you'll consult your lawyer regarding the matter and tell them na you'll have your credit card company put on hold all transactions from fitness first.

Ang regret ko lang talaga non, tumagal issue ko sa kanila na lumampas na ako sa 7 day comfort guarantee when nung 7th day hindi ko na gusto yung mga napapansin kong parang panloloko nila sakin. Mali din ako for talking to the sales mgr. I should have brought the issue directly to the club mgr and have him cancel my membership. too late for me though kaya i'm going to use it nalang kasi gusto ko rin naman talaga. na-disappoint lang ako ng sobra2x sa kanila. nung binebentahan ako everyone is available to talk to, aba nung may complaint ako LAHAT iwas sakin.

read sa net sis, sobrang daming complaints sa fitness first. hindi ka nagiisa.

[mynameisxtine]

Magkano ba ang membership ng FF? what if wala ka credit card?

[_AiaH_]

^ pwede naman cash or post dated check. although sa umpisa, they will discourage you kasi mas pipilitin ka nila na i-auto debit sa cc mo. this one I regret talaga. kaya i'll shift my payment to PDC instead. ang dami horror stories that even after their contract expired, nabbill parin cards nila. there are also those who have cancelled their memberships na pero nabibill parin cards. sobrang hassle.

[mischa04]

Thanks sis Aiah, tomorrow pupunta na ko sa FF Trinoma to bring the physician's approval form,and again explain to them my situation. I hope ma-settle ko na'to, at sana maayos nila kong kausapin kasi as much as possible ayoko naman magtaray, pero if di nila ko pakitunguhan ng maayos eh baka magtaray nga ako..hehe..

Hindi pa kasi nila binibigay yung FF ID ko sis, isa pa yun sa nakakainis. Feeling ko hinohold talaga nila yung ID ko.

Tama ka nga sis, ang daming reklamo sa net about FF. Nakaka-disappoint sila. Kailangan macancel na yung membership ko kahit ano pang sabihin nila ayoko na sa kanila, ayoko na silang makita.

[maria0005]

Sisses do you know how much na rate FF The Block?
