Marketing Scam

3

The other day, I went to the California Fitness center in Causeway Bay to join a regular membership program. After joining the club, Fanny, the Fitness Team Leader pursued me to take the personal training course. I was promised for an installment plan for the classes. They ended up charging my credit card at once. I went to the center for more information accordingly. Hilary, the center manager refused to assist further. She confirmed that the amount has been charged. The only thing she could do would be trying to contact my bank to see if installment could be done or not but no guarantee. If installment couldn't be done, I would have to pay the total at once! I called the Police at the spot. The manager was totally pissed and gave the policeman that annoyed look. I guess she thought I was just bluffing when I said that what I would do. Apart from that, when they said autopay installment/ disputing the payment, it actually indicates your credit card would be charged at once. You would be talking to your bank about a bank loan and decide how you pay the bank back. That's something they wouldn't tell you about until you make the payment I can't believe how outrageous the selling method is for such an international fitness group. Now I feel like it is a total scam. Seriously have doubt in regards to this company. I have contacted the Consumer Council as well as the Police Force regarding this issue. Apart from that, I have also filed complaint on their social media pages. I just want to let the world knows about how an INTERNATIONAL company works these days.
