Cooling-off right (14 day)

If you joined online or off-premises, you have a 14-day cooling-off right under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.

To exercise, send a written cancellation to Energie Fitness and request refund.

Applicable law: Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.

Before cancelling: negotiate

Energie Fitness sometimes offers retention options via individual clubs or member services. Research and member reports show clubs may offer a membership freeze option, downgrades to lower plans, or negotiated pauses. The WOW plan lists a freeze option. When you call or email, ask for: a freeze, a downgrade to a cheaper plan, suspension for medical reasons, or a transfer to another branch if you are relocating. If the online option is not available, request a written retention offer and get it in writing.

What cancelling saves you - example math

Use your exact plan price to compute savings. Example calculations using Energie Fitness pricing:

• CLASSIC (Kettering) at £27.99 per month: 27.99 x 12 = £335.88 per year.
• WOW (Kettering) at £29.99 per month: 29.99 x 12 = £359.88 per year.
• EPIC (Kettering) at £39.99 per month: 39.99 x 12 = £479.88 per year.

Compare to a low-cost alternative example: The Gym Group at £11.99 per month: 11.99 x 12 = £143.88 per year. Switching from CLASSIC Kettering (£335.88) to The Gym Group (£143.88) saves 335.88 - 143.88 = £192.00 per year.

If you are considering downgrading instead of cancelling, ask Energie Fitness to freeze the membership or move you to a lower tier to keep access while cutting cost.

Key UK laws

The matches below explain the laws that protect you: Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 provides a 14-day cooling-off right for contracts concluded online or off-premises. Consumer Rights Act 2015 requires services to be performed with reasonable care and skill and prevents unfair contract terms.

Auto-renewal and unfair terms

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) treats hard-to-cancel subscriptions and unclear auto-renewal terms as potentially unfair. If Energie Fitness applies auto-renewal in a way that prevents cancellation, you may complain to Citizens Advice for guidance and ask the CMA to review the practice.

Escalation steps

First, complain to Energie Fitness in writing and keep copies. If unresolved, contact Citizens Advice and consider a Section 75 claim with your card issuer or a chargeback for qualifying card payments. If a contractual term looks unfair, you can cite the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and ask for review or compensation.

Check access and final billing

Confirm the exact date your membership ends and whether you will be charged for any final period. If you received an email confirmation, keep it. If the club charges again after the end date, contact your bank for a refund and use your cancellation proof.

Data and access to records

Ask Energie Fitness for a copy of any personal data they hold about you if needed. Request deletion or retention options in writing. Keep copies of medical or redundancy documents if you used them for an early exit.

Re-activation and re-joining

If you decide to re-join later, check any joining or administration fees. The terms state Administration/Joining Fees are generally not refundable, so re-joining may incur fresh charges.

Follow this checklist to cancel cleanly and keep documentation:

• Find your membership number and commitment end date.
• If within 14 days of signing online, use the Consumer Contracts Regulations right to cancel and request a refund in writing.
• Use Manage My Membership online for the fastest cancellation and save the confirmation email (Energie Fitness site).
• If cancelling by post, send a registered letter to Energie Fitness, Deltic Avenue, MK13 8LW Milton Keynes, United Kingdom and keep proof of postage.
• If using a medical or relocation reason, attach the required documentary evidence and keep copies.
• If your card is charged after cancellation, contact your bank to request a chargeback or Section 75 review if applicable.
