Beware of Holmes Place!

When I became a member of Holmes Place in January they told me that I could give one month's notice to terminate my contract when I was leaving the country.  I sent them this notice letter recoerded delivery with the relevant documents they requested.  Today I thought I should check that they'd received it and (surprise, surprise!) they have not got it and are refusing to accept my notice, they are also insisting that I give three months' notice to them.


Any suggestions?  I have a friend that might take over the contract which would be ideal but if not then it looks as if they are going to expect me to pay 3 months' membership fees.


I would not reccommend joining this gym because of their appaling customer service... It is such a shame as the facilities are great!

I am sorry to read this, I do not recommend them. Resell your membership to someone else. This is how I got rid of my silhouette contract. Some people being in Geneva for a short term period should be interested. Good luck :) xx

I got a "free trial" for a month at Holmes Place a few years ago and was not even able to go once because I had to go to Canada. I got a call months later from my bank saying Holmes Place was trying to withdraw hundreds of Francs for my account and they thought they should call to double check because my signature did not match that on their records. Later, a man at Holmes Place phoned saying I had to pay my bill of 600 chf because I had signed up for a year-long membership (which I had never signed). After months being harassed for money, I told them I was planning on getting a lawyer and intended to take legal action for my forged signature that they had on a contract, which I had never seen and finally, the calls stopped. Anyone considering going to Holmes Place… think again.
