    Yeah I only ever had one gym membership, which I “cancelled” by ditching the bank account the debit card I gave them was tied to. So they called me up and said, hey, your card was declined, so you need to give us another card number. And I said, oh really? Because I think I’m going to cancel my membership right now. And she said, no, you can’t do that, you have to go through our process for that. And I said, oh yeah? And what leverage do you have to make me do that, exactly? And then I hung up on her.

      I tried doing that and the fuckers sent my account to a collections agency that hounded me nonstop for months and damaged my credit score. All over like $40 they refused to drop because my written cancellation was submitted by my ex to cancel both of our memberships rather than me personally submitting it
