Gym membership
4 years ago
Sir. I had taken a 1 year membership of local gym in my society. I had taken due to 3 reasons- it was in my colony, personalized training, 24hrs open(as i have time only in night). Gym facilities were not good. We were not given diet chart, insurance policy as promised by owner even after 6months. Main problem was that gym was closed after 6months without any notice. I was trying to reach out to him and finally when i got through him he told me that gym is being shifted to new location. New location is not near my colony. And it will take more time to commute to new place. Around 30mins(total up and down) extra daily in night for going to his new gym location. I have asked him for refund for 6months. He has been avoiding me but finally one day said that he will allow my balance 6 month membership transfer to any new member who joins his gym and that new person can pay me. He asked me to submit a written request as well for this. But seems like this was just to delay things so that I get tired and stop asking him. New members have already joined his gym but he never contacts me for this membership plan. Is there any ground that I can take a legal action against gym owner ?
You may get issue a legal notice and file a suit for recovery of said amount with interest and damages.

You can lodge an F. I. R against him. Next you can send him a legal notice. But, it would be better if you can solve the matter mutually. Ask him once to settle it.
Thank you
