Not worth the price
My local gym is very poorly equipped for the price you pay. A lot of the machines are old and worn and often out of service, there is no pool, the changing rooms are awful with single door access and open showers, there is rarely anyone manning the reception desk. If it wasn’t the only gym in an easily walkable distance I would go elsewhere. There is a new build being made, but not due for another 2 years (has already been in progress for about 3 years). I understand other locations are nice though, but it is not my experience.

Not happy with the check in process as this is causing delay. I carry my phone but my son who is also a member doesn't have a phone to check in via phone. When I enquired about this with staff, they said I need to logout and login into better app with my son's creds or do a manual registration.Most of the time they is a huge queue and mostly with new members who are enquiring about joining process. Why don't they have a physical membership card

We're more than happy to look into this further, and would like to request that you contact our Customer Service Team.

When your query can only be dealt with by the specific centre, we can reach out to them for you or provide a direct email for you to get in touch directly.
Please be reassured, we decided it only with the purpose of being more helpful and faster to reply.
Kind regards
Friendly informative staff.
