Goodlife Health Clubs VIC

Me and my girlfriend signed up for the gym recently and found out one week later that they had charged us each $150 on top of the weekly membership payments.

Apparently the $150 charged was for the ADMIN FEE (which they have neglected to inform either of us at the time of registration) and PERSONAL TRAINER program (which we made sure at the time of registration we were not interested).

I was fortunate my bank app notified me earlier, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to find out I was actually on a program.

Huge disappointment! Would definitely not recommend...

Only after your money don't even follow the rules of the ACCC.
Take your money and then change the service they provide. Purposely vague when selling memberships or other services. Take your money and then never provide the service and refuse to refund a service not provided.
Also consistently dirty and broken facilities and no aircon and fans that are never switched on above the lowest setting what a rip off!

Staff on the counter could not care less about customers. Overcrowding is insane. Nothing is ever fixed or put away. This is the ‘gym’ people joke about. Management are as ineffectual as it gets. A real mess. This place could be great with someone serious at the wheel. At the moment, I would say, do not waste your money.

have been a member for 3 years, have always been stitched up for unreasonable fees. i have ignored few charges but their staff including manager is very rude. They treat people like kids.

Their contracts are unreasonable and every time they stitch you up with money they will throw a contract to your face and say read it. i do not recommend anyone to join this poorly ran and managed gym.

on top of issues with the way they deal with people, the gym's condition is worsening. steam room is not functioning for 18 months, bathrooms are filthy, no air con on a hot days, cooling system doesn't work. spa doesn't operate and is filthy too.

Be aware, if you join this gym you will get stitched up for money, worst customer service and equipment

started gym for swimming, Pool is never available, I've been paying for services they are not allowing me to use and I can't cancel my membership cause if I do I have to pay 245$ for cancellation.
rudest employee's
horrible customer service.
worst gym services possible

I joined Goodlife 2 days before falling ill. 12 months later I’m not getting better and finally apply for a medical cancellation after they kept convincing me to suspend the membership. They flatly refused to refund the money paid on joining, despite never using the facility. They waived the $75 cancellation fee, but kept my $205. They have no compassion and only want your money. Sick, disabled? That’s your problem, not theirs. You signed a contract.

The reps get commission on every new signup. You'll notice everyone in the gym is on a different rate cause they're dodgy and not clear about their prices. Very dodgy business model!!!

Never left a review for anything

But I would 100% not reccommend
Bad customer service provided
By a male membership consultant

Told unless I was a member I wouldn’t beable to do 10 day trial after submitting application

Do NOT sign up here. Cancelling was such a massive issue. Even though I’d been there for two years. They put up the price once I cancelled also so now I’m paying extra and theres not a damn thing they can do! Yeh right. How about don’t rip people off!

I am extremely fussy about gyms and have spent a year finding the right gym for me. Goodlife is pretty close for me. It has many gyms which as a member I have access to all. Some are 24/7 which is what I was looking for. However also some gyms have access to a basketball court that is always available for casual shooting or pick up games, tennis courts with one being indoor and squash courts. When I read the reviews here I got terrified that I joined but so far at least for me I am pretty happy with the fact I joined.

Worst gym ever !! Their cooling off period is a LIE, dont fall for it they will co rinse debuting you even you say you want to cancle 2 hours later. And goodluck getting your money back. All staff are con artists, they get special training for it I guess. Join anywhere BUT this gym UNLES you want troubles.

Unfortunately while my gym experience was satisfactory, my dilemma is with the administration of this terrible organisation.

I have been charged for 4 consecutive weeks after I postponed my membership, and was yet to receive notification it was turned back on, despite receiving advice that I would be notified.

All in all, just another organisation that doesn't give a s*** about their members, only wanting to make money.

Won't be using them again!

Why they can’t tell you that there is cancellations fees .
Staff is very unprofessional in terms of insisting you.
They just want to steal your hard earned money.
Very very disappointed.
They are not a gym but a personal loan lenders .

Paid for membership and cancelled staff at Waverley park so rude and not will to help went to a class and got the pass there wasn’t enough equipment to go out for the class size of 30 the reception said it wasn’t his problem how can u hand out passes to a class when you don’t have enough equipment to go out don’t sign up to Waverley park never coming back here
