My wife was on a free trial with Bally's 4 years ago. She signed up when all you had to put down was a dollar. It allowed her a free month's trail but she had to come at least 7 times for the contract to be legitimate. She came over 7 times. I'm just finding out less than a year ago that she owes the company over $2000. This account was canceled before the 30 days and I was there along with another Bally's employee when the process was taking place. BAlly's had a nerve to say she didn't go to the gym for 7 time minimum, thats jive! Oh yeah. I worked for Bally's for almost 2 years and I met my wife there, so I know the inside corruption, managers and employees left for this reason.

To make a long story short they want us to settle for %50 percent off, which is around $1100. Why would I pay this amount if I know this account was canceled. The only problem I have now is that the written documentation that was submitted for cancellation was possibly misplaced when I moved from Philly after graduation. I still keep in contact with management and other employees that were around during that time but will that really help me if they wanted to take it the next level?

but if it does escalate, the attorneys for the collection agency would attempt to disqualify them as witnesses and try to show they had an axe to grind. If it does escalate to the next level, all you need to do is subpeona Bally's records for determining the number of times your wife used the facility. Show the contract ( hopefully you still have that). It was seem to me, if your wife never used the facility after the month trial and subpeoning their records which would show that, would also prove your case. I know it's not my money, but I wouldn't pay them a dime until I had my day in court. Good luck!
