We reserve the right to change your home location based on your usage and to charge you the relevant membership fees for the Back2Action location you are using most frequently. A calendar’s month notice will be given to you should any changes be made to your membership and/or fees.

6.3.3.1 With this payment option, you commit to being a member, and to paying the monthly membership fee, for at least 12 full calendar months and pay the monthly membership fee for that period. In return for this, you get a discounted monthly membership fee for the 12 full calendar months. At the end of the 12 calendar months, your membership will automatically continue on a monthly basis; and
6.3.3.2 Under this payment option, during your 12 month commitment period you will not be able to downgrade to a lower level of membership, and you will not be able to cancel your membership during this period except for the reasons set out in section 11.

8.1 This section is about what will happen if you do not pay your monthly membership fee or any other fees or charges you have agreed to pay because:
8.2 If the account details you gave us for the direct debit are wrong:

8.4 If you have cancelled your direct debit without giving us notice:
8.5. We may appoint a debt collection agency to collect any payments you owe us, and you may have to pay any costs associated with this, including legal and court costs and interest. Or we may choose to take the payments owed from your credit card or debit card using the credit card or debit card details you have given us and you hereby authorise us to do so.
9.1 You can transfer your membership and change your home site at any time while you are a member.
9.2 As monthly membership fees vary between our clubs, if you transfer your membership and change your home site, you will need to pay the fees of your new home site, either by monthly payments or, if you have chosen our discounted prepaid payment (see section 6.3) option, by paying the difference before you transfer. The first full calendar month or 12 full calendar months (depending on which commitment period you have chosen) will continue instead of starting again. You will not have to pay another activation fee to transfer your membership to another home club.
10.1 You may temporarily freeze your membership for between one complete calendar month and 12 complete calendar months for the following reasons only. We may require you to produce proof which is satisfactory to us of any of these reasons that you are relying on to freeze your membership, in accordance with section 18 of these Terms and Conditions.
10.1.1 Pregnancy.
10.1.2 Serious illness.
10.1.3 Serious injury.
10.1.4 Redundancy.
10.1.5 Your office relocates more than 5 miles from your nearest Back2Action facility.
10.1.6 Your GP has added you to the Shielding Patients List due to Covid 19
10.1.7 The area that you live in has changed Tier or national legal restrictions due to Covid 19.
10.2 As long as you obtain our prior written agreement, you may extend the period of any membership freeze. Freezing your membership is not the same as cancelling your membership – freezing is a temporary suspension, cancellation is terminating your membership. To cancel your membership you must follow the procedure described in section 11 below.
10.3 If you want to freeze your membership, you can request us to do so in writing or by completing a form at your home site. As long as we receive your request on or before the 15th day of the month, we can apply this from the first of the following month.
10.4 If we receive your request in accordance with section 10.3 and agree to freeze your membership, we will do so with effect from the first day of the following month. We cannot freeze it from an earlier date and will not refund any monthly fees paid before your membership was frozen.
10.5 When you request us to freeze your membership, you will need to tell us when you plan to resume your membership and return to your home site, although your membership can start again before this date if you let your home site know. We will automatically start your membership again, and start taking any direct debits, on the date you tell us you want your membership to resume.
10.6 We will not charge you membership fees while your membership is frozen. If you have chosen our discounted monthly or discounted prepaid payment option, we will extend your membership period by the number of full calendar months your membership has been frozen for. If we increase our prices during the period when your membership is frozen, you will have to pay any new prices that apply to your membership type when your membership resumes.
10.7 You will not be allowed to use any of our sites while your membership is frozen. However, if your child has a membership with us and has not frozen their membership (see section 20 below), you will be able to accompany him or her to the site so that they can use the facilities.
10.8 If you have joint or family membership, or pay for a child membership, freezing your membership may result in changes to your payment arrangements, including losing some or all of any discount you and they receive. We will tell you about any changes when you ask to freeze your membership if this applies.
11.1 Cancelling your membership during the cooling-off period
11.1.1 If you have purchased your membership online, you have a legal right to change your mind within 14 days of joining and receive a refund. The 14 day cancellation period commences the day of your membership start date which is stated on your agreement. This is called the ‘cooling-off period’. If you choose to cancel within the cooling off period, we will give you a full refund of the activation fee and any other fees you have paid.
11.1.2 If you want to cancel your membership within the cooling-off period, you must send your notice in writing to your home site’s manager or fill in a form at your home site.
11.1.3 If you have purchased your membership in person at a site, rather than by joining online, you may be entitled to cancel and obtain a refund subject to the provisions of clause 12 below.
11.2 Cancelling your membership after the cooling-off period
11.2.1 To cancel your membership after the cooling-off period has expired, you must send your notice in writing to your home site’s manager or fill in a cancellation form at your home site. If your home site receives your notice on the first day of the month, your membership will end on the last day of the same month. If your site receives your notice after the first day of the month, your membership will end on the last day of the following month. This means we will take one more direct debit payment before cancelling your membership.
For example, if we receive your notice on 10th May, cancellation will take effect from 30 June. If you are within your commitment period, we will cancel your membership from the 1st day of the month after the commitment period has finished, as long as it is at least one full calendar month in advance. If you are not sure what your commitment period is, please contact your home site.
11.2.2 If you cancel your membership in writing (by post or email), when we receive your written notice we will send you an acknowledgement letter or email to confirm the date that your membership will end. If you do not receive this acknowledgement, you must assume that we have not received your cancellation notice and you must contact us and send a further cancellation notice to us. If you cancel using a cancellation form at your home site, we will not send you an acknowledgement letter or email, but the cancellation form will show the date your membership will end.
11.3 After the cooling-off period you may cancel your membership within your membership commitment period for the reasons set out in 11.3.1 to 11.3.9 only. We may require you to produce proof, satisfactory to us and in accordance with section 18 below, if you cancel for any of the following reasons:
11.3.1 Pregnancy.
11.3.2 Serious illness.
11.3.3 Serious injury.
11.3.4 If you move house more than five miles from any site.
11.3.5 Redundancy.
11.3.6 Your office re-locates more than 5 miles from any site.
11.3.7 If we permanently close your home site.
11.3.8 If we close your home site in its entirety for refurbishment for more than one month at any time.
11.3.9 If we significantly reduce the opening hours or facilities at your home site, unless this is temporary and we need to do so for (i) health and safety reasons (ii) for maintenance or (iii) for improvements that will benefit a majority of members – in any such case we will offer other facilities within your site or at another site.
11.4 If you are currently on a discounted monthly membership and are unhappy with any change in the monthly membership fee that applies to you, you must inform us in writing that you are cancelling your membership because of the increased fee. You will still have to pay any increased fee until your commitment period has been fulfilled and your membership ends. However, if you request a refund, we will refund you any difference between the old monthly membership fee and the increased monthly membership fee at the end of your membership commitment period.
11.5 As well as the above, you may cancel your specific type of membership in the following ways:
11.5.1 Standard monthly - if you have chosen, or changed to, our standard monthly payment option, you can cancel your membership by giving us one full calendar month’s notice in writing.
11.5.2 Discounted monthly - if you have chosen, or changed to, our discounted monthly payment option, you must give us one full calendar month’s written notice to cancel your membership at the end of your 12-month membership commitment period. We must receive this notice at any time on or before the first day of the last full calendar month of your commitment period. However, you can cancel your membership straight away if you pay for the remaining full calendar months of your commitment period.
11.5.3 Prepaid - if you have chosen, or changed to, our prepaid payment options, we will cancel your membership at the end of your membership commitment period unless you renew your membership commitment period. If you decide to renew your membership commitment period and you currently pay your discounted prepaid membership by direct debit, your membership will continue for a further 12 full calendar months and we will give you at least 10 working days’ notice that your monthly payments are due for the next 12 full calendar months.
11.5.4 A joint membership - if you have chosen or changed to a joint membership, we will automatically change your membership to an individual equivalent membership if the other joint member gives the correct notice to cancel. We will inform you of the new monthly membership fees applicable and when you will start paying them. If you both want to cancel, you should follow the process in sections 11.5.1 to 11.5.3.
11.5.5 A corporate membership - if you have a corporate membership and are no longer eligible for it (for example, because the agreement we have with the business you are associated with or employed by ends, or you are no longer associated with or employed by that business), you may change your membership to our individual standard premier membership and you will no longer be entitled to receive the discounted corporate fees. We will tell you when your eligibility ends. You may need to keep your membership and payment option for the rest of the membership commitment period you signed up for. Unless our agreement with the business you work for or with says otherwise, the standard cancellation notice and membership commitment periods set out in these terms and conditions apply.
11.5.6 A family membership - if one family member cancels or changes the membership, or you no longer qualify for this membership, the remaining family members will automatically move to the appropriate type of membership. This may also affect the membership fee for any children you have linked to your membership. If this happens, we will give you written notice. If all members of the family want to cancel, you and they should follow the process in sections 11.5.1 to 11.5.3.
11.6 Your right to cancel any extra benefits
11.6.1 If you want to cancel any extra benefit(s) you have chosen, you must give your home site one full calendar month’s notice and they must receive this before or on the 15th day of the month.
11.7 If you have joined online, to cancel your membership you can either complete the request to cancel form, a link to which can be found in your receipt email, or you can cancel in any of the ways mentioned in this section 11.
12.1 In some circumstances we offer a 14-day money back guarantee to new, first-time members who wish to cancel their membership.
To be eligible to claim under the money back guarantee, you must be a new, first-time member at one of our facilities or be changing your membership from one of our facilitaties locations to another, for example because you have moved home or relocated your job.
You are not eligible to claim if you have been a member at one of our clubs and are re-joining that club, or if you are changing the type of membership you hold (for example, changing from a joint or family membership to an individual membership).
Where you are eligible to claim under the 14-day money back guarantee, you must give us written notice of cancellation by letter, by email or by completing the appropriate form in your home site within 14 days from the date on which your membership starts – this may differ from your joining date, for example you may join the gym on the 1st day of a month but decide not to start your membership until the 14th day of that month. In that instance, the 14-day period commences from and including the 14th day.
We will process your cancellation request immediately and refund any payments made on your then current membership in accordance with 12.2 below.
This money back guarantee is separate and distinct from your right to cancel where you have joined online, by email or telephone – see section 11 ‘Your Right to Cancel Your Membership’ – but we will only refund any payments made once.
12.2 We will issue any refunds due to you by bank transfer or by the same method you made payment to us.
13.1 We may cancel your membership at any time by giving you one month’s notice in writing. In these circumstances, we will refund you the fee that you have paid for that month, and any fees you have paid for future months.
13.2 We may freeze your membership at any time (we will not charge you monthly membership fees while your membership is frozen) or cancel your membership without giving you notice, if:
13.3 If we cancel your membership under section 13.1 or 13.2 we will not allow you to join any of our sites in the future and you will not be allowed to enter any of our sites.
13.4 If we permanently close the home site you joined at, we will, where possible, give you at least one full calendar month’s notice in writing. We will send this to the address you have given us. We will also put a notice on your home sites information board. We will try to offer you a suitable membership at another club. If this is not possible, or you refuse our offer, we will end your membership at the end of the month’s notice and refund any monthly membership fees you have already paid for the remaining commitment period.
13.5 If we receive official notice (for example, from the executors of your Will or from your bank) that you have died, we will immediately cancel your membership and refund any fees you have paid for the remaining membership commitment period.
13.6 If we receive official notice that any of our facilities you are registered to must close because of Covid 19 Tier, National Legal and Governmental restrictions, we may freeze your membership for the length of time our facility must close to the general public by law.
14.1 We may, at any time, withdraw and/or substitute a type of membership or a payment option for new members or members who want to change, restart or renew their membership or payment option.
14.2 From time to time we may change our monthly membership fees. We will try not to change the fee more frequently than once in a calendar year, and to ensure that any change is reasonable, but we cannot guarantee this. We will tell you about any change that will apply to you, and will give you at least one full calendar month’s notice before the change comes into effect. Please see your payment options for details of how fee changes will affect you.
If you are on a discounted monthly membership type and we change your membership fees during your 12-month membership commitment period, you may request the difference paid due to this change at the end of your minimum commitment period.
14.3 We may, without notice to you, make reasonable changes to these terms and conditions if the changes are for the benefit of the majority of our members at your home site or across our networks of facilities generally.
14.4 When we make changes that may affect you, we will give you notice of the changes we plan to make by displaying the changes in your home site for one full calendar month. If you are not happy with the changes, you can cancel as explained in section 11 of these terms and conditions.
15.1 Where you have cancelled your membership, you may restart your membership again at any time. To do so, you will need to sign a new membership agreement form and set up a new direct debit with us.
15.2 You will not be able to restart your membership until you have paid all amounts you owe us for your previous membership (if any), and we can refuse to let you restart your membership again until you have done so.
15.3 If your membership was cancelled by us due to reasons in section 13, you will not be able to restart your membership with us.
16.1 If we cannot provide all the services and facilities at your home site for 30 consecutive days or more, or services and facilities are significantly reduced for 30 consecutive days or more, for reasons or events beyond our reasonable control, you or we can cancel your agreement immediately by written notice. By law, we do not have to pay you compensation in these circumstances. However, we will try, where reasonably possible, to let you use another of our clubs.
16.2 Reasons or events beyond our reasonable control could include, for example, but are not limited to natural disasters, government actions, war, national or regional emergency, acts of terrorism, protests, riot, fire, explosion, flood, an epidemic and strikes or other labour disputes (not relating to our workforce).
17.1 We may need to transfer (assign) all or part of your agreement to another company. We can do this as long as your rights under the agreement are not adversely affected or materially reduced.
18.1 We may need you to provide proof, which is satisfactory to us, of:
18.2 If you cannot provide satisfactory proof, for example you cannot prove the date of postage of your cancellation notice, we will not be able to cancel your membership and your membership may continue unless and until you do provide us with a proper and effective cancellation notice.
18.3 If you cannot provide satisfactory proof of your eligibility for a particular discounted membership, we will automatically upgrade you to the full rate and inform you in writing in line with the direct debit guarantee.
18.4. We will require a photograph to be taken as proof of identity and to be held against your membership record to validate entry.
18.5. We will request photographic evidence at your time of joining, to validate your identity.

19.2 If at any point we find that you have provided us with an incorrect name, address or other details which are not your own, we may cancel your membership and prevent you from joining or attending any of our Back2Action sites in the future.
20.1 You may want to add youth members to your membership. We refer to this as ‘linking’ them to your membership. All youths who join must be linked to someone aged 18 or over.

20.3 The charges for youth memberships are set by each Back2Action site and may depend on the age of the child. Children may need to be upgraded to the next age category after their birthday. We will tell you in writing when we plan to upgrade your child to the next age category. In these circumstances, the monthly membership fee may change.
20.4 The times that children are allowed in each site, or to use the sites facilities, will depend on the child’s age and will vary from site to site. Children may not be allowed in some sites and this will be set out in the site’s terms of use. Please ask your site for more information and details.
