The gym can return the card, and you can ask for a refund as long as you have not received the service. Before accepting the service, the consumer can request to cancel the contract and the gym will refund the corresponding service fee. If you have used it for a while, you must negotiate before returning it. The contractual relationship between the two parties has been established, and if it is to be unilaterally dissolved, it is necessary to pay some compensation. The expenses in the fitness card are not consumed by consumers, but the advance payment is deposited in the gym account, and the parties can ask for a refund. If the gym does not refund, consumers can negotiate with the operator and reach a settlement agreement. You can also find a consumer association to mediate and safeguard your legitimate rights and interests. If the gym is unwilling to negotiate and mediate, if there is an arbitration agreement, it can be submitted to an arbitration institution for arbitration, or it can directly bring a lawsuit to a court with jurisdiction.

Matters needing attention in applying for fitness card:

1. Before you apply for a fitness card, you should plan your own time, make sure you have time to go to the gym, and then apply for a fitness card. If you don't have a fixed time to go to the gym, it's a waste of money to get a card.

2. If there are friends around you who also want to exercise, then it is suggested that they can do it together, so there may be price concessions. Friends can exercise together and encourage each other to stick to it;

3. Before you apply for a fitness card, you should know how long it will take, some are supplementary cards and some are annual cards. If you are a friend who is new to fitness, it is recommended to apply for a supplementary card experience first, or 1 year, instead of doing it for three years at a time, because you don't know how long it will last, although you will feel that the longer you do it, the better;

4. When you apply for a fitness card, you must pay attention to the contract. Even if people talk nonsense, what is not written into the contract is false, so you should read every clause in the contract carefully and ask questions in time.

5. Generally, there will be other supporting discounts for getting a fitness card. Some will deliver things, while others will deliver courses. These should be understood clearly. Let someone who can send you a card give it to you;

6. Generally, gyms will have preferential activities at some time of the year, such as anniversary celebration. It is better to get a card for activities, which will be more favorable;

7. When handling the card, you should also pay attention to whether the terms in the contract indicate whether the card can be suspended or transferred. The pause card allows you to pause the calculation of time when you can't go to class temporarily, and the transfer card allows you to transfer the card to others after you don't want to go to the gym.

Reasons why the gym can ask for a card refund:

If the parties can't continue to perform the contract due to the reasons of the gym provider, the parties can ask the other party to refund the fees and cards. If it is necessary to return the card and refund the fee for personal reasons, it shall be agreed with the gym provider through consultation. If losses are caused, the other party shall be liable for compensation. Fitness card is essentially a form of contract. Since it is a contract, all parties should abide by it. The buyer has the obligation to abide by the contract treaty, and the seller must also abide by the relevant legal provisions, that is, the contract is allowed to terminate in some form. Of course, if the contract needs to be terminated due to the buyer's reasons, the seller can claim compensation for certain economic losses.

To sum up, when handling the card, the buyer and the seller should make the following agreement on the termination of the contract, stipulating under what circumstances the contract can be terminated, who is responsible and how. This is a right granted by law. If the seller does not agree with this, it is the overlord clause and violates the law.

Legal basis:

Article 10 of the Measures for Punishment of Infringement on Consumer Rights and Interests

When providing goods or services in advance, business operators shall clearly agree with consumers on the quantity and quality, price or cost, time limit and method of performance, safety precautions and risk warning, after-sales service, civil liability and other contents. If the goods or services are not provided in accordance with the agreement, the agreement shall be fulfilled or the advance payment shall be returned according to the requirements of the consumers, and the interest on the advance payment and the reasonable expenses that the consumers must pay shall be borne. If there is no agreement on the refund, the refund amount shall be converted according to the calculation method beneficial to consumers.

If the business operator makes a reasonable request for refund to the consumer, and explicitly indicates that it will not be refunded, or fails to refund for more than 15 days from the agreed effective period, or the consumer makes a request for refund without the agreed time limit, it shall be deemed as deliberate delay or unreasonable refusal.
