Bally's wants to charge me $10 for a membership CARD...

[l Xes l]

I've been a bally's member for 8 years now and my membership card is falling apart. It's just a simple piece of plastic with black and white picture of you and lllllllllllllllllllllll. So, I asked the front lady to if I could get a new card and she says I need to pay ten dollars for it! that's one thousand pennies! I'm going to go to the manager next time and threaten to cancel my membership. Who da hell sells membership card to their members?

Yeah, if it were me, I would have just asked for a manager right there and then.

 

[MrDingleDangle]

yep, wouldnt be surprised if they charged for lost cards, but just a really old one is ridiculus

although I am still not surprised as it is Bally's

 

[AgaBoogaBoo]

Did you mention that you've been there for 8 years and the one you started with is just falling apart?

 

[toolfan]

This is exactly why I don't work out. Bastards.

Was i not clear enough with my original post? "I've been a bally's member for 8 years now and my membership card is falling apart. "
I even bolded it so you guys can see it.

AgaBoogaBoo is asking if you mentioned that information to the lady. You told US the information, but did you tell her?

Mention to the manager that 24hr Fitness replaces cards for free every 2 years. I am constantly amazed at how petty some companies will get over a tiny amount of money and risk losing customers.

 

[TheShiz]

that is outrageous, tell a manager and I am sure they will have a word with the stupid employee you talked to. that kind of nonsense will lose loyal customers.

No you weren't Xes, you never said that you said that to her.

WE know you were there 8 years, but did you mention it to the lady?

😛

I've heard nothing but bad things about Bally's, and hearing this does little to change my opinion.

Like others said, just talk to the manager. If they still want to charge you and you want to remain at the gym just keep using that old card until it annoys them to the point of wanting to replace it.

yeah. some of them do some really stupid things. this is one of them. just replace the darn thing and move on. it cost them what $.50 for it? not worht loseing someone who has been a customer for 8 years.

 

[oogabooga]

It's not surprising. At school for example it's 15 bucks to replace a lost ID, and it is 3 bucks to replace the card if you still have the old one.

even then, if it's a ten buck investment for another 8 years of having a card, *shrugs*.

its a $10 mistake bialys is makeing. they risk loseing a loyal costumer over something so anal. just replace the damn card that cost them at most $1.

after she got the the computer or looked at the card and seen the issue date she should have said "oh its 8 years old. nevermind we will get a new one right now!"

Yes. You already told ATOT that you've been a member for 8 years, but did you tell the "font lady?" That's all we're asking.
