HOW DOES MY ANNUAL LEVY WORK?
As per the contract that you signed with us, Planet Fitness deducts an annual levy every year, either in July/December, or added to your monthly premium over 12 months, depending on the date that you chose for this to take place.
Communication is sent out to our members prior to the levy run via sms and email. If you have not received this communication, please e-mail us your details and we will check this against the records we have for you to establish why you might not have received this notice.
HOW DO DEBIT ORDER DEDUCTIONS DATES WORK?
Your debit order will run on the date you originally chose. We do not bill you in advance; your debit order payment is for that month specifically.
When you signed up, we offered you the following debit order date options. The 1st, 15th, and the 25th.
If there are insufficient funds in your account to meet the obligations, Planet Fitness is entitled to double debit you on the next month’s debit order run or we may track your account and re-present the instruction for payment as soon as sufficient funds are available in your account.
