Kansas City,#2UPDATE EX-employee responds
Sun, November 28, 2004
I worked for Gold's Gym for a year and 6 months before being very rudely terminated by them over a year ago. As a former employee , I can tell you that this business does many questionable practices. I knew at that time the business was failing and they would eventually have to close one of their clubs. And this is not the first time they have closed a club without notice or offering restititution to their members. Around 1997 they closed a club in downtown Kansas City, MO. They were sued by the Attorney General but eventually reached a settlement. Part of this settlement was that Gold's Gym agreed to notify its members of any future closings. Sounds like from this account they violated that agreement. You can read about this settlement here: http://www.ago.mo.gov/newsreleases/1998/92298c.htm I would also suggest contacting the Attorney General's office immediately.
