Yup just like rockpoper said, it's the same for all branch. They have pretty much standardized the membership fee. Yes as mentioned, on special occasions they will waive off certain registration fee etc. Anyway insist they waive off even if there's no event/ promo.

Even so, I find their security quite lax... I have seen ex-members snucked in by their friends (who are current members).

where i can find a review about fitness first bukit tinggi?

Read beginning of page 1 of this thread...remember someone did talk about FF in BBT.

Talk to the membership consultant and get 7 days free trial.

had been with FF for 10months.

home access with menara axis.

everything is ACCEPTABLE and up on par.
no suprise...

staff is friendly, equipment is clean n not too old. locker room is clean. jus the gym might smell a bit during peak hours.

one thing im not satisfied with FF, is the compulsory body first package which is so called compulsory and included when you join the gym. the so called fee is suppose to be rebated once you meet certain criteria. which is jus ridiculous.

i certainly did take note on the criterias, and met them, fill up the form for the rebate. but the rebate js never came back. i had look for them for a few times. and the jus push me off with stupid excuses.

anyway, all gym is purely money-suckers if you're not kful.

Ha!?? I told my membership consultant that I am not interested in Body First as I don't like the idea parking my money in someone else account and they just took it away....

Anyway, if not mistaken, we need to attend the gym for XX numbers of time within a month, otherwise, they may forfeit our rebates...

Same case here. I opted out of Body First because it felt like too expensive to commit at that time even though it can be returned in future.

One thing that I am not happy with FF menara axis is the rubber grips on the pull up machine seem to be torn... but that is the least of my worries.

old gym mah...what to do?

I prefer Paradigm mall and 1 MK.

need to attend the total 3 times pt session within 1st month, and total present at the gym total 8times within 2months

i've actually met all the criterias. and fill up the damn form as well.

then they told me the so called rebate will be in my membership account, and treated as a advance payment for my monthly membership fee, since they dont give cash rebates.

but i tot i could skip 1month payment again and again, until i still keep seeing they billed me every month on my credit card. and when i asked about the advance payments that i made. they said i dont have any. and they changed and said the rebate was never done.

10months down the road, they push me here and ther. and the issue was never solved.

I have never been to 1 MK... so I can't say for sure.

So far I have visited the branches at Menara Axis, Empire Subang, Summit USJ, Paradigm Mall and The Curve.

Very happy with Empire Subang, Paradigm Mall and The Curve, probably because of the time I arrive (God damn early), so the free weights area is usually empty. I only go to these branches on weekends. On weekdays I go to Menara Axis.

Summit USJ's free weights area is pretty cramped... big studio for classes though.

Can you threaten to cancel your membership?

+1. Good Idea.

2more months contract.

but will probably negotiate to proceed without bond

since if i change to other gym. will incur other cost like joining fee / processing fee + another year bond.

I think, in your case, if proceed from the 13th month onwards, no bond. Try asking the membership consultant.

Threaten only... doesn't mean u will really cancel Throw the ball in their court and see what they do. Scare tactics.

Oh I signed up for it. Upon completion of Body First, I told the Front Desk that I would like to claim for my rebate. She checked the system (to make sure I fulfilled the 3 months and min attendance) then hands me the form. I filled it. Within 2 months, the amount was deducted from my membership fee. I didn't encounter any issue, just that they're slow.

You need to keep pestering the front desk, get his/ her name and make sure this person follow up for you.

The other way is complain in the FF facebook...Sing bad song to everybody in front of them.

Yeah that's another approach to go about it. Get friends to chip in some words in the comment and they'll take action. Few of us made a lot of noise about the sound system (always giving problem in class) and they replaced the whole thing within 1-2 weeks (as opposed to their earlier reply of a need to wait for the spare parts to arrive in 5-6 weeks' time).

regardless of the unhappy issue, the non-bond membership is very very tempting.
and my membership is also under corporate rate. which actually i no longer work with the company that eonntitles me for the cheaper fee.

if sign up with other clubs, need bond again, very sienz............

anyone here had membership with other clubs b4?

Mind to share how much you pay under corporate rate?

bout 7-8% cheaper than normal
