If he'd paid up what they demanded it would have cost him twice as much, wouldn't it?

But the OP would then have had something for his/her money...

The gym got 6 months of fees, but only provided 2 months of service. Their fees got paid also. This was the judge's ruling... so he has ruled that OP was in the wrong (but maybe not as much as the gym said...) Hollow victory indeed.

I agree, the gym had poor customer service in not returning the calls as promised. But, clearly, the OP has made even more errors:
1) Not knowing which bank account the DD was meant to be coming from.
2) Signing a legally binding contract, but not checking the DD mandate that allowed this contract to be fulfilled. OP had to sign this form, but didn't check the detail?!
3) Not being a little more proactive in solving the issue. OP could have just filled out a new form during the period the gym membership was being used. Why keep phoning (and OP's expense) when walking into the gym reguarly?!

The OP has not been back so he's either embarassed or a troll.

I vote troll.

Only a bloke could try to turn such an obvious failure into a victory. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I still vote troll.

Look at the post count. He's obviously done a creditcruncher!

If you won, how come you're the one writing a cheque?

I didn't say "I Won" I said "I won a small victory" meaning that the judge accepted that Bannatynes were not without fault.

I was going to have to pay up whatever the outcome, but at least I didn't have to pay up the full amount.
