Many people think that they will stick to fitness in the future when they apply for a fitness card, but once they get a card, many of them have never been there. Once the fitness card is issued, it cannot be returned and part of it cannot be transferred, which will cause unnecessary economic losses to consumers.
Shanghai proposed to set up a 7-day cooling-off period for card handling, and the public also had many different views on this. Some people think that this can avoid impulsive consumption. Many customers are pulled into the gym to experience and then tricked into getting a card, but they are not sure whether they really need it. With the seven-day cooling-off period, consumers can make better choices and avoid unnecessary consumption.
However, many people think that such a proposal is unnecessary. The person who handles the card must be an adult, and adults should be responsible for their own actions. Such a proposal is too harsh for the fitness industry. If it is to avoid impulsive consumption, it should not only be aimed at the fitness industry.
Adults should think carefully before doing things, rather than relying on these external constraints to maximize their own interests. Such consequences will only lead to more and more people's reckless consumption, because with the regret period, consumers will be more impulsive and businesses will not be able to correctly estimate sales.
Some netizens pointed out that for the fitness industry, we should not focus on impulsive card handling, but should severely punish gym owners who run away. Some gyms open for consumers to apply for cards, and then declare that they will close down and run away. Such businesses should be concerned, punished, and seek justice for consumers.
Everything has advantages and disadvantages, so we should weigh them before implementation.
