Bring a Buddy PureGym

Tl;dr: can I take my "buddy" to a PureGym that is NOT my "home" gym if I have access to them all? 

Hi

Is anyone online a member of Pure Gym Extra and has a buddy?
I know members who are Extra / Plus (I can't remember the specific term) have the option of bringing a friend 4x a month for free (these are the memberships that allow you to visit gyms in multiple locations).

(MSE TIP: You can also get a "bolt on" to allow a buddy to visit 4x a month and it costs £4 a month. BARGAIN if you like working out with a friend, or if you know someone who wants to go to your gym once a week...so you could theoretically split the monthly fee if you're only visiting once a week, OR if you know someone at your local gym, you could get 4 visits a month for £1 each!)

Anyway, I wondered if anyone has the Extra membership and if so, online it suggests that you're only able to bring a buddy to your "home" gym. If you workout at a different location, does the code still work for the buddy?

Thanks!
Becki

  • I'm pretty sure you can - i did this once and had no problems unless they have changed their rules, as long as they have a pin to use it shouldn't matter. :smile:
