LUCILLE ROBERTS RIPOFF
This is to officially let every one know that LUCILLE ROBERTS is in fact LUCILLE ROBBERS!
In the fall of 2001 I signed up with LUCILLE ROBERTS, but record will show I never once attended. The reason for this is that the Forest Hills location I joined was OVER SOLD. I attempted for 1-full week after signing up to come and workout. Not only could I not get an available machine... I could barely get in the door. The aerobics class literally extended across the span of the gym with class members working out between machines in order to "take class". I addressed this with the receptionist and was told I should try to come early afternoon when it's less busy. I explained that like most people I work FULL TIME and when I joined the gym I did so specifically inquiring about evening workouts and was assured I would always be accommodated. This was not the truth!
Lucille Roberts may preach MORE GYM...LESS MONEY, but in fact they are flat-out robbing people by over-selling memberships. I just as many other people didn't have the $50-$100 a month to pay out for a gym membership and was thrilled to learn I could join LUCILLE ROBERTS for such a reasonable price. Stupidly I kidded myself that since it was a facility owned by a woman it had more heart and allowed ALL people to work out... not just financially privileged. Well, I was WRONG! Lucille Roberts is worse than anyone is as they prey on just those people. They offer low memberships and then SELL TO ANYONE time and time again and in the end they have everyone's money, but none of us can even get into the place to "GET OUR MONIES WORTH!"
After all this they have the nerve to be sending me statements requesting PAST UNPAID DUES. Well, I am refusing to pay them a dime and I hope anyone in my situation will stand up and do the same.
SHAME ON YOU LUCILLE ROBBERS!
