Cancellation service #1 in Canada
F45 is a franchise network of group fitness studios offering instructor-led, high-intensity interval and circuit training classes under locally managed memberships. Each studio is a separate franchisee that sets its own membership terms, pricing and local policies while operating under the F45 brand.
When you cancel, the immediate operational effect depends on your studio’s contract terms: some cancellations end access at the end of your current billing period, others may take effect immediately or after a notice period. Automatic renewals should stop once the studio processes your cancellation, but you should verify by checking your next billing statement and receiving written confirmation. Records of your membership, payments and any correspondence are typically retained according to the studio’s policies and applicable privacy laws; request confirmation from the studio if you need specific data retained or deleted.
There is no single global F45 refund policy - refunds for unused classes, prepaid fees or cancellation penalties are decided by the local studio under the terms of your signed membership agreement. If your subscription was through Apple or Google Play, refund requests are handled by Apple or Google respectively and are not processed by F45. Canadian statutory consumer protections (see next section) may provide additional rights to a refund during a cooling-off period or where a contract is misrepresented; those rights apply in addition to any contractual terms and cannot be contractually waived.
| Plan | Price | Period | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lifetime weekly founder rate (Ontario) | C$50/week + tax | Weekly | Unlimited classes at founding-member rate in Ontario (long-term rate retained) |
| Unlimited weekly standard rate (Toronto area) | C$60/week + tax | Weekly | Unlimited classes week-by-week in Toronto/GTA |
| Bi-weekly standard rate (Calgary) | C$90 per bi-week | Bi-weekly | Unlimited classes in Calgary |
| Monthly unlimited (Vancouver suburb) | C$240/month | Monthly | Unlimited monthly membership |
| 21-Day Shred trial (Milton, Ontario) | C$97 for 3 weeks unlimited | 3 weeks | Unlimited classes during 21-Day Shred trial |
Provincial consumer protection laws provide additional rights beyond your membership contract. In Ontario, fitness club contracts include a cooling-off period permitting cancellation in writing within a short timeframe after signing with a refund provided within statutory timelines; details are on the Ontario government site. Nova Scotia mandates a five-day cooling-off period for fitness memberships with full refund rights and limits on payment arrangements and contract length. In Quebec, the Consumer Protection Act allows cancellation within up to 1/10 of the contract’s duration after services begin, with limits on retained fees and prompt refund of unused services. These statutory protections cannot be waived by contract and apply alongside any studio terms; consult provincial resources for the exact procedures and time limits.
Public reviews are mixed. Some members report very positive experiences with the workouts and community - for example, positive Trustpilot comments highlight enthusiasm for classes and results. Other reviews note opaque or strict local cancellation policies, slow or unhelpful responses from certain studios, and complaints about pricing or unfulfilled promises (as seen in several Trustpilot reports). Canadian forum threads (e.g., Reddit) frequently discuss class no-show and late-cancellation fees (commonly reported in the C$10 - C$15 range) and frustration when local studio contract terms differ from expectations. These experiences vary considerably by studio and management, which is why direct communication with your studio and careful review of your agreement are important.
Common errors include assuming a cancellation submitted through the app or to corporate will cancel a locally billed membership - many studios require direct contact and written notice per the contract. Members also sometimes forget to separately cancel App Store or Google Play subscriptions, resulting in continued billing from Apple or Google even after contacting the studio. Missing provincial cooling-off windows or not keeping proof of delivery/email confirmation are frequent issues that make disputes harder to resolve. Finally, failing to review notice periods and early-termination fees in your membership agreement can lead to unexpected charges.
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Contact local studio (in-person, email, phone) | Refunds and credits are at the studio’s discretion and governed by your contract; provincial rights may apply | Variable - depends on studio responsiveness and contract terms |
| App Store (Apple) | Request refunds from Apple; cancellation is done via device settings or reportaproblem.apple.com | Moderate - Apple handles requests and approval is not guaranteed |
| Google Play (Android) | Cancel in Google Play app and request refunds through Google Play support (process handled by Google) | Moderate - Google Play refund process applies and outcome varies |
After you cancel, confirm in writing that the studio received and processed your request, check your bank or card statements for any further charges, and keep copies of all communications. If you paid via Apple or Google, follow up with their refund procedures and keep any confirmation numbers. If you believe your statutory consumer rights were not respected, contact your provincial consumer protection office for guidance.
