Cancelling Planet Fitness Membership

Here’s a breakdown of the most common methods:

Visit your home club: This is usually the most straightforward way. Go to the front desk and request a cancellation form. You might need to provide your membership information and a reason for canceling.

Certified Letter: This method provides proof that your cancellation request was sent and received.
- Write a letter stating your intent to cancel, include your name, membership ID, phone number, and the last four digits of your social security number.
- Send the letter via certified mail to your home club’s address.
- Keep a copy of the letter and the mail receipt for your records.

Check your membership agreement: Some Planet Fitness locations allow online cancellations, but this often depends on your membership type and location.
Log in to your Planet Fitness account: If online cancellation is available, you might find the option in your account settings.

Important Notes:

Cancellation deadlines: To avoid being charged for the next billing cycle, make sure you cancel before the 10th of the month.
Annual fee: If you have an annual fee, you’ll need to cancel before the 25th of the month prior to the annual fee date.
Buyout fee: If you have a membership with a minimum term commitment and cancel before the contract ends, you might be charged a buyout fee (usually around $58).
Confirm cancellation: Always follow up to confirm your cancellation was processed. You can do this by calling your home club or checking your account online.

Read your membership agreement carefully: This will outline the specific cancellation terms and any potential fees.
Be polite and persistent: If you encounter any difficulties, remain courteous but firm in your request to cancel.
Document everything: Keep copies of any cancellation forms, letters, and mail receipts.
