To cancel an Amped Fitness membership, submit a written cancellation request to your home club, either by handing it to staff in person or by mailing it to the corporate office at PO Box 2179, Saint Petersburg, FL 33731.1Sunbiz.org – Division of Corporations. Detail by Entity Name – Amped Fitness LLC The company’s published terms leave most specifics to the individual membership agreement, so the contract you signed at enrollment controls your notice period, fees, and refund eligibility.2Amped Fitness. Terms of Service
How to Submit the Request
You have two options. Bring the request to the front desk at your home club, or send it by certified mail with return receipt requested to the corporate PO Box in Saint Petersburg.
If you cancel in person, ask for a copy of the completed form with a staff signature or a timestamp. That signed copy is your proof the gym received the request, and you’ll want it if charges keep hitting your account afterward. If you mail the request, certified mail creates a delivery record with the Postal Service that shows when the gym received your letter. Some members also use the physical office address at 6798 Crosswinds Dr. N, Suite 106-B, Saint Petersburg, FL 33710. Confirm the correct mailing address with your home club before sending, since individual locations may have their own procedures.
What to Include
Your written request needs enough detail for the billing department to match it to your account. Include your full legal name as it appears on the contract, your membership barcode or account number (printed on your key tag or membership card), and the name of your home club. If the gym hands you a specific cancellation form, fill out every field. Skipped sections give staff a reason to send it back for correction, which delays the process.
Check that the name and payment information on your request match what the gym has on file. If you’ve moved or changed banks since joining, update your account records first so a mismatch doesn’t hold things up.
Notice Period and Final Charges
Amped Fitness memberships, like most gym contracts, require a 30-day notice period before cancellation takes effect.3Consumer Federation of America. Exercising Your Rights: Gym Membership Cancellation You will owe at least one more monthly payment after the gym receives your request. If your billing date falls inside that 30-day window, expect the charge to go through. That final payment is not an error, and disputing it with your bank could create a collections problem.
Many Amped Fitness plans also include an annual fee, sometimes labeled an enhancement or maintenance fee, separate from monthly dues. It is typically non-refundable once charged. If the annual fee date is approaching and you’re planning to leave, submitting your request before that date can save you a lump sum. The exact amount and billing date are in your membership agreement.
If You’re in a Commitment Period
If you signed a commitment-period membership (often 12 months) and want out before the term ends, Amped Fitness’s terms note that certain plans carry a specific commitment period and that refunds depend on the terms of the particular plan.2Amped Fitness. Terms of Service In the gym industry, early termination fees commonly run between $50 and $100, though some contracts calculate the buyout as a percentage of the remaining balance. Your signed agreement spells out the exact number, so pull it before requesting cancellation.
Month-to-month memberships generally have no buyout fee, since there’s no remaining commitment to buy out. The 30-day notice still applies. If you’re unsure which plan you’re on, front desk staff can pull up your account.
Medical and Relocation Cancellations
Amped Fitness allows members to cancel without an early termination fee under certain hardship circumstances. The two common grounds are medical inability to exercise and relocation beyond a reasonable distance from any Amped Fitness location.
For a medical cancellation, you need a letter from a licensed physician stating that a physical condition prevents you from using the gym’s facilities. The letter doesn’t need to name the diagnosis, but it should describe the expected duration of the limitation. Florida law requires health studio contracts to include a cancellation provision for members who become physically unable to use a substantial portion of the services they were using before the disability, and the refund is calculated by dividing the contract price by the number of weeks in the term and multiplying by the weeks remaining.4Florida Senate. Florida Code 501.017 – Health Studios Contracts
For a relocation cancellation, you typically need to show that your new address is far enough from any Amped Fitness location that continuing the membership is impractical. Acceptable proof usually includes a signed lease, a mortgage closing document, or a utility bill in your name at the new address. The exact distance threshold varies by contract, so confirm the number in your Amped Fitness agreement. Submit the documentation with your written cancellation request. The billing department won’t process the fee waiver without it.
Florida Statutory Rights
Because Amped Fitness is headquartered in Florida and operates many of its locations there, Florida Statutes Section 501.017 applies to those contracts directly and requires several protections regardless of what a gym might prefer.5Florida Statutes. Florida Code 501.017 – Health Studios Contracts
- A three-day cooling-off period. You can cancel penalty-free within three business days (excluding weekends and holidays) of signing the contract by mailing or delivering written notice. The gym must refund all money paid, minus a prorated amount for any days you used the facility.
- Gym closure or relocation. If your home club closes or moves more than five driving miles from its original location and doesn’t provide an equivalent facility within 30 days, you’re entitled to cancel and receive a prorated refund.
- Death or disability. The contract must allow cancellation with a prorated refund if the member dies or becomes physically unable to use a substantial portion of the services.
Refunds under the statute must be issued within 30 days of the gym receiving the notice. If you’re at a location outside Florida, check your own state’s health club laws; most states have similar protections with varying details.
Confirming the Cancellation
After you submit the request, the gym should provide a confirmation, either a cancellation number, an email, or both. If nothing arrives within about a week, follow up with your home club in writing (email creates a record) and ask for written proof the account is set to terminate. Don’t rely on a verbal assurance over the phone.
Watch your bank or credit card statements for at least two full billing cycles after the cancellation date. You should see the authorized final payment during the notice period, and then charges should stop. If a charge appears after cancellation was supposed to take effect, contact the gym first with your confirmation in hand. If that doesn’t resolve it, file a dispute with your bank, but only after giving the gym a chance to correct the error and only if you have documentation showing the cancellation was properly submitted. Florida’s Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services handles complaints against health studios operating in the state; members at out-of-state locations can contact their state attorney general’s consumer protection division.
Don’t Just Stop Paying
Walking away without formally canceling is one of the most common and most expensive mistakes members make. The gym will keep billing you, and unpaid charges eventually go to a third-party collection agency. Once a collector reports the debt to Equifax, Experian, or TransUnion, it can stay on your credit report for up to seven years from the date of the first missed payment. The credit score hit from a collections account can range from 50 to over 100 points, depending on the rest of your credit profile.
Even if you believe the charges are illegitimate, say because you asked a staff member to cancel but never got written confirmation, the gym has no obligation to accept that as proof. A formal written cancellation request, delivered in a way that creates a record, is the only reliable way to end the billing relationship. Canceling the credit card or closing the bank account tied to the membership doesn’t cancel the contract. It just guarantees the balance goes to collections.
