The cheek of it!

yes, to the internet and all that...



I'm a member at a Bannatynes Gym, My brother has just had a change in career and has had to leave his local gym and wanted to join mine to take advantage of the joint membership discount.

I told him this was fine and that I'd go down to the gym with him when I had a free moment to sign him up.

So the other day he calls me and tells me he went on his own and managed to sign up. This involves changing my direct debit from £55 to £99 and adding another person onto my membership. Now the thing is they didn't call me or anything!

So on the first of next month I'll be getting £99 taken out of my account and they have not said a word! If my brother hadn't have told me, then I would be none the wiser.


How should I play this one? I think I might call my bank, check the DD is coming out and then call the gym and play hell...


Surly what they have done is completely illegal?

My brother was a bit miffed when they just took him through the procedure on the basis that he said he was my brother!

Surely an amended credit agreement had to be signed?

Well that's what I thought...

...So I can join the gym by pointing to the guy who just walked in in front of me, say he's my brother and they'll charge him? Awesome!

Pretty much - joint membership doesn't have to be someone in your family, I was going to join onto a mates policy before I started my own.

By the sounds of it, All Dan had to do was put my name on the bottom of one of the forms he filled in and signed.
