Hey Geraldine,

I hope you're well.

I am very sorry to hear that we have fallen short on the high standards you expect from us and we expect of ourselves.

Please speak to a member of staff and they will be more than happy to address any issues or queries you may have.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we appreciate all feedback.

Rude and arrogant

I enjoyed going to this gym. That's where the good part ends.

When COVID hit last year & the gym was forced to close I decided to continue paying my monthly DD to support the business. When the gyms opened up again, I decided not to return and chose the "freeze my membership" option on the Energie Fitness website in/around October 2020. Then earlier this year I decided to cancel my membership - which again I used the "cancel my membership" option on the Energie Fitness website.

Imagine my horror when I realised in May 2021 that DD's had continued to be taken by Energie Fitness since November 2020. I again went into the website & "cancelled my membership" & contacted the gym - but got no reply.

I eventually received correspondence with them, telling me to "PFO" basically - I'm not getting my money back. I appreciate small businesses have had a hard time for the last 18 months, but if they're going to offer a Freeze or Cancel option on their website it should be effective.

Hi Patricia

I hope you're are well. We very much appreciate your goodwill contributions throughout a very difficult time. I am sorry to hear that the cancellation process has been frustrating for you. It seems there may have been an error when trying to freeze your membership. Please contact your gym either through phone, e-mail or visit the gym and ask them to go through your membership details. Hopefully this will result in a solution to the issue.

Thank you very much for this honest review, it really helps us to improve our services.

Best Wishes

bad customer service when you leave

Gym has friendly but very unprepared staff. Wrong information given caused me unexpected charge. No efforts towards the customer to make them feel helped.
Gym facilities are good but I am leaving the gym disappointed with the service, bad customer service when you want to leave

Horrendous

If I could give less than one star I would.
I had an horrendous experience when trying to cancel my membership. I was told that I would be charged for the following months fee. The staff member on the phone could not give a legitimate reason as to why, but said initially I had to give “8 or 9 days notice, by then end of the call it was 30 days notice.
I went on to say how disgusted I was to hear of this practice because 1) I have been a member in multiple gyms in the last 10 years and never came across this practice 2) since the lockdown of gyms in December I continued to pay my membership as a sign of support and loyalty to the gym, and because we were asked to do so in a generic email sent to all members. More fool me!!!!
So on top of paying 7 months membership for which I received no service, Energie Fitness now seem it fit to charge me for leaving. This is a disgusting practice, and I can only imagine the amount of helpless people that have fallen for this scam.
I write a public review as a I was told on saturday that I would hear from a manager first thing Monday morning. Still waiting. Maybe public shaming will do the trick.
DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS GYM.

Hello Rachel,

I am very sorry to hear you have been highly frustrated by our cancellation process and that the customer service you received was not up to énergie's standards. With regards to our member cancellation policy, we require members to give 30 days notice when cancelling their membership. If you would like to further discuss your membership plan, please contact your gym directly either by telephone or e-mail.

I do again apologise as this process can be frustrating, we will try to do better in the future. If you have any further comments or queries feel free to contact communications@energiecentral.com.

Best Wishes,
Dan

Surely there is something that needs to be reviewed.

It's dirty, especially in the male changing room.
There is no water point in any of the areas - so you must bring your own water.
There are no hairdryers or even sockets in the changing room, forcing me to have a shower at home eveyday.
Missing attachment accessories and bars for training.

Hi Bruno,

I’m sorry to hear about your disappointing experience at énergie Fitness. With regards to your comments on the changing rooms, this is unacceptable and falls far short of our standards. Your complaints on the facilities in our Citywest location are also duly noted and will be passed on, we are always trying to improve and your review helps us greatly. Apologies again for your unfortunate experience, we will do better.

My husband and I recently joined the club and we’re both happy with the facility and the friendliness of the staff. I particularly enjoy spin sessions while my husband works with one of the PTs. We’re both satisfied so far and will continue to refer Energie to our friends.

I just love the structure of the gym

I just love the structure of the gym and how it’s not jam packed, I love being able to breathe in the gym, so the structure is better than every other gym I’ve been too, other gyms are just too linear or narrow I hate that.

Énergie deffo a 10/10🥳

Hi Steo

Thanks for taking the time to write your review.

I am sorry that you have been irritated by the waiting times for certain equipment. I'm sure you can understand that coming out of lockdown that demand is very high in certain areas, however we completely understand your frustration. We hope in the near future that our gyms are not as busy at certain times so you spend less time waiting.
