点评:I joined The Village Gym in Weston and paid for a full 12-month membership upfront. Unfortunately, shortly after joining, I discovered that the current major roadworks affecting the M57 junction make travelling to the gym extremely difficult and, in practical terms, virtually impossible for me.
I cancelled my membership within six days of joining and requested a refund. Despite contacting the gym on multiple occasions, I have still not received my refund or a satisfactory response.
What I find particularly unacceptable is the lack of communication. My emails have gone unanswered and I have repeatedly been unable to contact anyone by telephone. I would have expected a much higher standard of customer service, particularly having paid for a full year in advance.
I appreciate that the roadworks themselves are outside the gym’s control. However, the way my cancellation and refund request has been handled is entirely within the gym’s control.
After this experience, I would not recommend joining The Village Gym, particularly if you are relying on convenient access from the M57. I would strongly suggest checking the current road situation and, importantly, understanding the cancellation and refund arrangements before paying for a membership.
翻译:我加入了韦斯顿的The Village Gym健身房,并预先支付了整整12个月的会员费。可惜的是,办卡后不久我就发现,由于M57交汇处正在进行大型道路施工,前往健身房变得极为困难,实际上对我来说几乎是不可能的事。
我在办卡后六天内便申请取消了会员资格并要求退款。尽管多次联系健身房,但我至今仍未收到退款,也没有得到任何令人满意的答复。我认为最不可接受的就是缺乏沟通。我的邮件得不到回复,我也多次试图通过电话联系任何人却都失败了。考虑到我已经预付了一整年的费用,我本期望能享受到更高水准的客户服务。
我明白道路施工本身并非健身房所能控制的。不过,我的取消服务及退款请求的处理方式则完全在健身房的掌控范围之内。
经历了这次事情之后……我不建议加入The Village Gym,尤其是那些依赖M57高速公路来往返锻炼的人。我强烈建议大家在付费成为会员之前,先了解一下当前的道路状况,更重要的是要清楚关于会员服务取消及退款的相关规定。
