Just curious as to how gyms are still able to be charging membership fees out of peoples bank accounts for the month of April when they are aren't even allowed to be open and they aren't going to be open any time in the foreseeable future. Seems pretty unethical.  
 
Anytime Fitness in Brandon here is still charging members for the month of April. Curious as to what HLC and GoodLife are doing for membership fees?  
 
I personally feel all memberships should currently be paused until it is safe to go to a gym again and the member chooses to reactivate it.

Both HCL and Goodlife are on hold for membership payments.  
 
Call them and talk to the franchisee, or cancel your membership!  
 
Straight off their website:  
 
If you are a member of Anytime Fitness, many of our clubs are offering members a freeze on their memberships while the clubs are temporarily closed, with the time credited to the end of their memberships. We are also providing free access to our virtual content via our Instagram and Facebook profiles, including workouts, health and wellness tips, and members have access to workouts anytime, anywhere on the AF App. Some clubs continue to serve members through virtual training. Please check your local franchise location for details.

I looked at my bank account, and GoodLife fitness also continues to charge monthly fees. Interesting...

considering what their websites say.. no one should be charging!

All Member payments are being suspended as of Tuesday March 17 and any paid-in-full Memberships will be put on freeze until further notice and expiry dates will be extended accordingly. We look forward to reopening our doors as soon as possible and welcoming everyone In the meantime, take care of yourself and each other.

I know I might be in the minority here, but I still willing to pay my monthly fee.  
 
I want to have anytime fitness and my gym family still around after all this covid-19 craziness is over with.
