Cancellation service #1 in Canada
Planet Fit Club (commonly referenced as Planet Fitness in many sources) is a chain of budget-friendly fitness clubs offering basic and upgraded membership tiers across Canada. Clubs typically provide access to cardio and strength equipment, group programming or training resources through the PF app, and - for higher tiers - multi‑club access and spa amenities.
When cancellation is processed, your club access should end on the cancellation date recorded by the club. Monthly automatic billings should stop after the cancellation takes effect, but members often must monitor bank or card statements to confirm no further charges occur. Annual fees or pre‑paid periods are typically not automatically refunded by policy; handling of data (account records) follows club retention practices and you may want to request confirmation in writing that your account has been closed.
Planet Fit Club’s standard policy is not to refund unused membership time for monthly or annual fees. Exceptions are rare and discretionary: refunds or credits may be considered if services were not provided (for example, a prolonged club closure) or in the event of clear billing errors. If you are under a minimum‑term contract and cancel early, an early‑termination or buyout fee (commonly noted at around C$58 in some reports) is usually charged and is generally non‑refundable. Refunds for duplicate or erroneous billing are handled case‑by‑case and typically require documentation and manager approval.
| Plan | Price | Period | Features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Classic | C$15.00/mo (plus taxes & fees) | Monthly | Unlimited access to home club; PF App workouts; free in‑club fitness training; free Wi‑Fi |
| PF Black Card® | C$29.99/mo (plus taxes & fees) | Monthly | Access to all clubs; bring a guest anytime; PF App workouts; free in‑club fitness training; spa amenities (massage chairs, HydroMassage™, tanning, Total Body Enhancement); partner perks |
Typical additional charges reported include a small enrollment/startup fee (often ~C$1) and an annual fee (~C$49), though exact amounts can vary by club and location. These prices reflect multiple Canadian locations as of early 2026.
Under Canadian consumer protection principles, you may have rights to refunds or credits when contracted services are not provided (for example, if a club closes and cannot provide access). Planet Fit Club’s posted policies may differ from statutory consumer protections, so keep documentation and pursue remedies through provincial consumer protection offices if needed. If charges continue after you cancel, you can escalate to provincial consumer protection agencies, file a complaint through the Better Business Bureau, or dispute unauthorized charges with your bank or card issuer. Retain proof of cancellation (signed forms, certified mail receipts) as evidence.
Experiences are mixed in Canada. Some members report quick, straightforward in‑person cancellations with immediate confirmation and no further billing. Others report difficulty cancelling online or by phone, receiving continued charges after they believed they had cancelled, delayed or refused refunds when clubs closed, and inconsistent customer service responses. Billing anomalies such as unexpected intermittent charges have been reported; many affected members say they were told to appear in person even during periods when access was limited.
Common errors include assuming the mobile app, App Store or Google Play cancellation will stop Canadian memberships (these channels are generally not accepted in Canada), failing to obtain proof of cancellation (no signed receipt or certified mail return), missing contract or annual fee deadlines (such as notice deadlines before annual fees post), and not monitoring bank statements after cancellation. Relying on anecdotal workarounds (for example, changing a “home club” to a U.S. location) is unreliable in Canada and can leave you without recourse.
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| In person at home club | Refund: Typically no; exceptions rare and discretionary | Difficulty: Low (most reliable in Canada) |
| Signed mailed cancellation (certified) | Refund: Typically no; exceptions case‑by‑case | Difficulty: Moderate (recommended if you cannot visit) |
| Website/App / Online | Refund: Typically no; cancellation availability unreliable in Canada | Difficulty: High (often unavailable or inconsistent) |
| Phone | Refund: Typically no; not a reliable cancellation method in Canada | Difficulty: High (often not accepted as sole proof) |
After you cancel, keep your proof of cancellation in a safe place and monitor your account or card statements for at least two billing cycles to ensure no further charges occur. If billing continues, present your documentation to the club manager and request reversal; if that fails, contact your bank to dispute the charge and consider filing a complaint with provincial consumer protection authorities or the Better Business Bureau.

If you need to escalate, you can consult the Better Business Bureau (Canada) or your provincial consumer protection office.
