Complaint Review: Anytime Fitness Wichita Falls - Wichita Falls Texas

I'm not the first employee Chase has ripped off. He fired the previous G.M before me because she left to go to her Grandma's funeral. That should of been my major red flag but I decided to stick it out.

I live in Wichita Falls and we were supposed to have a non mandatory company party that was 2.5 hours away one way. I told my owner Chase that I wouldn't be attending because it was to far and I was going in the next day to sign a couple up on a training package. 

He called me the morning of the party and I told him I had a buddy whom was an Army Ranger that I haven't seen in years was coming through town, and I wanted to go into work then hang out with him after. I talked with Chase at 9:15 a.m and I didn't have to be in to work until 10 a.m. Before I could say anything Chase blew up on me for not being at work (when I wasn't even supposed to be in yet) and starting cursing and saying I needed to turn the keys in right away.

This upset me very much because of how hard I worked for this man and his business and how much I cared about the members and the club itself. I still keep in contact with a handful of members, helping them with fitness goals and or questions.

I waited for this sack of crap to call and apologize and I might have went back to work for him but never got a call or a text. He started telling members who were asking where I was that I stole from the company and that's why he fired me! He also lied to the Texas Work Force Commision saying I "no called, no showed" the morning he fired me.

I know the exact account he's talking about. He over charged a lady for Personal Training sessions and they finally came to a agreement that Chase would lower her monthly dues so she could still workout with the Personal Trainer. Well, she would come in and have me run her card..after a few days it would come back as a declined payment an or NSF. Wichita Falls is a small big town and to have my name dragged through the mud is very offensive and not needed. Be a man and own up to your mistakes.

Ask all the members how many issues that club had before I took over...now go and ask how many of those issues I resolved with in the first few weeks of taken the club over. People whom have had issues with their accounts, key, or billing issues I took care of them all. 

The Texas Work Force Commision sided on my side and he did have to pay me un-employment. Yet he still goes around and trashes everyones name just to save his own pathetic self. This man should not own a business in Wichita Falls!

I would go in and work hard every day. I would go market and I had the Personal Training program back on track and had more clients and members in the gym. How a person like Chase Rojas can own a business and treat employees this way and get away with it blows my mind. I've helped run a $10 million health club in the Dallas area before moving back to take this job at Anytime Fitness. I gave up my career in Dallas to only move back and be wrongfully terminated...truck payment, insurance payment, house payment, cell phone payment, student loan payments etc. Just a few bills I haven't been able to pay or pay on time the last 5-6 months since being ripped off from my job.
