Cancel The Gym Group: Easy Method
What is The Gym Group
Overview
The Gym Group is a chain of low-cost, 24/7-access gyms offering pay-monthly memberships, classes and personal training services.
Memberships are managed online via the Member Area or app and by contacting the company by email or live chat for some requests.
Presence and membership model
The Gym Group operates through a network of gyms and a central membership system rather than local franchise offices in every market.
Pricing and specific availability can vary by location; verified local pricing for Nigeria is not available from The Gym Group's published materials.
How to cancel The Gym Group
Cancel if you pay by direct debit
- Contact your bank and cancel the direct debit mandate. Do this before your next billing date - ideally at least 4 - 5 working days beforehand - to avoid a charge. Source
- Keep proof of the cancellation instruction from your bank (screenshot or confirmation message) in case of any dispute.
Cancel if you pay by recurring card payment
- Use the Live Chat in The Gym Group app or Member Area, or email [email protected] to request cancellation.
- Aim to request cancellation at least 5 working days before your next billing date to reduce the risk of being charged for the next month. Source
Cancel within the cooling-off period
- You may cancel during the statutory 14-day cooling-off period via email, the Member Area or a cancellation form.
- If you used the gym during the cooling-off period, pro-rata deductions apply; refunds are processed via the original payment method within 14 days. Source
What happens when you cancel
Access to the gym
When cancellation is accepted, your ongoing access usually stops at the end of the paid billing period unless the request is within the cooling-off window and processed immediately.
If you stop a direct debit with your bank, future payments stop; keep proof and check your next statement for unexpected charges.
Contract renewal and payments
Cancelling properly prevents future automatic renewals. Cancelling too close to a billing date can still result in the next month being charged.
After the 14-day cooling-off period, The Gym Group generally does not refund unused portions of a billing period.
Account data and records
The Gym Group will use your provided contact and payment details to process cancellations and refunds per their terms and privacy policy.
Keep copies of emails, chat transcripts and bank confirmations as proof of the cancellation request and any refunds paid.
Will I get a refund?
Cooling-off refunds
You have a statutory 14-day cooling-off right starting from the beginning of your membership; you can cancel during this period and receive a refund.
If you used the gym during the cooling-off period, the refund will be reduced by a pro‑rata amount for usage. Source
After the cooling-off period
- No refund is provided for the unused part of a billing period if you cancel after the 14-day cooling-off period.
- Refunds, when due, are processed within 14 days and returned using the same method of payment used originally. Source

Your consumer rights in Nigeria
Cooling-off and contractual rights
The Gym Group's published terms grant a 14-day cooling-off right from membership start, allowing cancellation and a refund (subject to pro‑rata deductions for use).
That contractual right applies regardless of where you are located if included in your membership agreement.
Local consumer protection
Nigerian consumers with disputes can seek advice from local consumer protection authorities and bodies that handle fair trading and consumer complaints.
If you believe you have been charged unfairly or misled, gather documentation and consider contacting the relevant Nigerian consumer agency or seeking legal advice.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many customers praise friendly staff, helpful personal trainers and the 24/7 access model.
Reviewers often mention a motivating environment and a useful selection of equipment and classes. Source
Negative feedback
There are frequent complaints about cancellation difficulties, unexpected charges after attempted cancellations and unclear cancellation steps. Source
Other common issues raised include hygiene or maintenance concerns, unreliable app or PIN access and mixed experiences with customer service. Source
Documentation checklist
What to keep before cancelling
- Membership number, registered email and full name used on the account.
- Proof of payment history (bank or card statements showing membership charges).
- Screenshots of the Member Area or app pages showing your membership details.
What to keep after cancelling
- Copies of emails to/from [email protected] and any live chat transcripts.
- Bank confirmation that a direct debit was cancelled, or written confirmation of cancellation from The Gym Group.
- Refund confirmation and dates when refunds hit your account (if applicable).
Common mistakes
Not allowing enough time before billing date
Cancelling too close to your next billing date often results in being charged for the next month. Aim for 4 - 5 working days lead time if stopping a direct debit and about 5 days for card cancellations.
Relying on unverified verbal confirmations
Always ask for written confirmation (email or chat transcript). Verbal assurances or assuming a bank cancellation will automatically notify The Gym Group can lead to disputes and unexpected charges.
