SUMMARY OF SOME KEY TERMS

Some of the key terms of this agreement are summarised below. You must refer to the noted clause or provision for full details.

Cooling off: you can cancel this agreement within 5 days from the start date by giving us written notice. (see clause 3)

Your safety: you agree to give us all relevant health and fitness information before or during any exercise. Each time you use the facilities you must ensure you are in good physical condition and know of no medical or other reason why you should not exercise. If unsure you should seek medical guidance. (see clause 5)

Putting your membership on hold: in any 12 month period you can usually ‘freeze’ your agreement twice for up to 3 months for both periods combined. If we agree, you may freeze your agreement more than this time for travel, medical or hardship reasons but must give us proof. The minimum freeze period is one billing period (2 weeks). A weekly freeze fee of up to $2.50 will apply. Your membership will be extended by the freeze period. (see clause 9)

Cancelling in the minimum term for medical reasons: you can cancel your membership in the minimum term if you contract a serious illness or a permanent physical incapacity which is confirmed by a doctor we reasonably agree to and you pay the administration fee which is the same as your membership fees for 30 days. (see clause 10)

Cancelling in the minimum term for other reasons: you can cancel for your convenience if you pay the cancellation fee which is the higher of %50 of the balance due for the minimum term or a sum equal to 30 days membership fees. (see clause 10).

Cancelling an ongoing agreement after the minimum term: you may cancel on 30 days written notice.

Not enough money in account when fees are due: your bank or credit provider may charge you a fee for overdrawing your account. Our third-party biller also charges the Biller Administration Fee. (see clause 13)
