The gym has run away, how can members defend their rights? Can I file a case?

This kind of incident is quite common in recent years.

Give you some advice:

1: It's best not to have a big sale. Clubs with good business will not have big sales.

2. Suddenly launch a multi-year membership system, or even a lifetime card, and raise funds quickly in the short term, which is very likely to run away.

3. Ask about the term of the property. Many gyms are rented for one year, and there is a rent-free period, usually to prepare for running.

4. Arrears of utilities and coach's salary.

5. Business suspension, renovation, rectification, especially at the end of the year, for whatever reason, there is a great possibility of running away.

6. Equipment damage, no maintenance, no maintenance, no manager, long-term recruitment, indicating that there are internal problems and it is possible to run away.

Note that any health club is overcrowded. In order to ensure the sports environment and service quality, the number and quality of members are usually controlled by raising prices. This kind of seriously managed club has a good business and is no longer short of money, but there are really few high-quality clubs that really make money in China.

The above situation is usually a phenomenon before running, but most bodybuilders still have the psychology of taking advantage of small things, focusing on cards, multi-year cards, and lifelong cards, without thinking at all.

People have been preparing for a long time, from making strategies to planning to escape. Once they donate money to run away, even if the police file a wanted case, there are many plaintiffs, but the amount of each person is not much, so many members will not sue.

Even if people are arrested and the funds are transferred and spent, it is difficult to get them back, let alone compensate them. How can we safeguard our rights? The answer is no way!

Although the gym owners who have been running in Beijing for several years have reported to the police, they have not been caught back so far, and finally they have gone away.

I hope everyone can learn from it and don't blindly take advantage, especially at the end of the year.
