How to cancel your Planet Fit Club membership and reclaim your money
Why Planet Fit Club members choose to cancel
Planet Fit Club operates as a subscription-based fitness network in select Indian cities, offering gym access, group fitness classes, and personal training tailored to different fitness levels. Members commit to monthly or annual fees to use equipment and join structured workouts at physical locations. Understanding why you might cancel-and what your legal rights are-protects your investment before you submit your cancellation request.
You may decide to cancel for legitimate reasons: financial hardship, relocation, injury, shift in fitness priorities, or simply discovering the facility doesn't meet your expectations. Whatever your circumstance, your right to cancel exists under Indian consumer law, but the refund outcome depends on timing and how you proceed. Yafee has guided thousands of gym members through this process, and this guide ensures you follow the correct legal pathway.
Where Planet Fit Club operates in india
Planet Fit Club maintains verified physical locations in Haridwar and Howrah. Your membership is issued and managed by the specific centre where you enrolled, which is why contacting the correct location is the first critical step. Check your enrolment receipt or payment confirmation to confirm which centre processed your membership.
No centralised online cancellation portal has been verified for Planet Fit Club across India. This means you cannot cancel through an app or national customer service line. Instead, you must contact your local centre directly using the contact methods outlined later in this guide.
When you should cancel versus when you should wait
Timing determines whether you receive a refund or lose your fees entirely. If you enrolled fewer than 7 days ago, cancel immediately to qualify for a full refund under Planet Fit Club's stated cooling-off policy. If you enrolled more than 7 days ago, cancellation is still lawful, but you enter the non-refundable period under their standard terms. Nevertheless, circumstances such as misrepresentation or illness may justify a refund claim even outside the 7-day window-Yafee recommends documenting your reason before contacting the centre.
Your consumer rights under indian law
India's Consumer Protection Act, 2019 grants you specific statutory protections when cancelling gym memberships. This legal framework forms the foundation of your cancellation claim and provides leverage if Planet Fit Club refuses your request.
The 7-day cooling-off period and statutory refund rights
Under India's Consumer Protection Act, 2019, you have the right to cancel a distance or in-store service contract within 7 days of purchase without penalty, provided you notify the supplier in writing. Planet Fit Club's stated policy mirrors this statutory standard: you receive a full refund only if you cancel within 7 days of joining. After day 7, the gym's no-refund clause becomes lawful, but only if you were informed of this restriction clearly before signing.
Your legal position: You retain the absolute right to cancel at any time. The legal distinction is refundability, not cancellation. If Planet Fit Club failed to disclose the 7-day window or the non-refundable terms before enrolment, you have grounds to challenge their refusal in a consumer forum, regardless of how many days have passed.
When to escalate to the consumer authority
If Planet Fit Club refuses to process your cancellation, denies a refund you believe is owed, or fails to respond within 30 days, you can file a formal complaint with your State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission. This free service exists to protect consumers from unfair gym practices. Gather all evidence before escalating: your membership agreement, payment receipts, email correspondence, and proof of your cancellation request (screenshot, email confirmation, or written notice). Yafee recommends filing your complaint under "deficiency of service" or "unfair contract terms" to maximise your claim.
Refund timelines under consumer protection rules
Once you cancel within the 7-day window, Planet Fit Club must process your refund within 30 days. If they miss this deadline, you can add a claim for compensation under the Consumer Protection Act. Keep all payment records and bank statements showing when you paid and when (or if) the refund arrived.

Knowing your membership cost and plan structure helps you calculate your refund and decide whether cancellation makes financial sense. The table below shows verified pricing at Planet Fit Club's operational centres.

If you enrolled in an annual plan, your refund entitlement is significantly larger. Annual members who cancel within 7 days can recover the full upfront fee. Yafee strongly recommends checking whether you paid monthly or annually before contacting the centre, as this changes your refund calculation.
How to cancel your Planet Fit Club membership
Cancellation requires you to contact your local centre directly and submit a written request. This section walks you through each procedural step to ensure your cancellation is recorded and traceable.
Step 1: locate your membership centre and contact details
- Check your enrolment receipt, welcome email, or membership card for the centre name and location (Haridwar or Howrah).
- Find the centre's phone number and email address. If not listed on your receipt, visit the Planet Fit Club website or call your centre directly.
- Note the current date and your membership start date. Calculate how many days have passed to confirm whether you fall within the 7-day refund window.
- If you cannot locate your centre details, search for "Planet Fit Club [city name]" on Google Maps or contact the corporate office if a phone number is listed.
Step 2: prepare your cancellation documentation
- Gather your membership ID or enrolment number (on your receipt or card).
- Collect proof of payment: bank statement, credit/debit card receipt, or payment confirmation email.
- Write down the date you joined and today's date to confirm whether you are within 7 days.
- Document your cancellation reason (health, relocation, financial, etc.) in one sentence-you are not required to justify cancellation, but stating a reason strengthens your refund claim.
- Take screenshots of any communication with the centre, such as WhatsApp messages or emails.
Step 3: submit your written cancellation request
- Send an email: Compose a formal cancellation email to your centre's email address. Use this template:
- "Dear Planet Fit Club [Centre Name], I hereby request the cancellation of my membership (Membership ID: [your ID]) effective immediately. I enrolled on [date] and request a full refund under the 7-day cooling-off period. Please confirm receipt of this request and provide the refund timeline. [Your name, contact number]"
- Request written confirmation: After sending the email, ask the centre to reply with a cancellation confirmation number or email confirmation. This serves as proof of your cancellation request.
- If email is not available: Visit the centre in person and submit your cancellation request in writing. Ask for a receipt or written confirmation that your cancellation has been recorded.
- Keep all copies: Save the email you sent, any reply, and screenshots of communication. Do not delete messages until your refund has been processed and received.
Step 4: follow up if you receive no response within 7 days
- If the centre does not reply within 7 days of your request, send a second email marking it as urgent. Reference your first email date.
- Call the centre directly and speak to a manager. Ask for the cancellation status and expected refund date.
- Request the name and contact details of the person handling your cancellation.
- If the centre refuses to acknowledge your request or denies cancellation, proceed to escalation (see the section below).
Step 5: track your refund and confirm receipt
- Once the centre confirms your cancellation, note the promised refund date (typically within 7 to 30 days).
- Monitor your bank account for the refund. Check both your main account and any linked savings accounts.
- If the refund does not arrive within 30 days, contact the centre again and request proof of the refund transaction.
- Keep your bank statement showing the refund deposit for your records.
What happens after your cancellation is confirmed
Cancellation and refund are two separate steps. Confirmation of cancellation does not guarantee immediate payment, so know what to expect after you submit your request.
Timeline for refund processing
Planet Fit Club typically processes refunds within 7 to 30 days of cancellation approval. Annual fees take slightly longer to refund than monthly charges because they involve the centre's accounting department. If you paid by credit card, the refund appears as a credit on your next statement, not as immediate cash. If you paid by bank transfer or debit card, the refund usually deposits within 5 to 10 business days after the centre initiates it.
Confirming your gym access has been disabled
After your cancellation is confirmed, your membership card or digital app access should stop working within 24 to 48 hours. Test your card at a gym kiosk to confirm access is revoked. If your card still grants access after 48 hours, contact the centre and ask them to manually disable your membership. This prevents accidental charges or disputes later.
Verifying no further charges appear
Monitor your bank account and credit card statements for 90 days after cancellation. If Planet Fit Club charges you again after your cancellation confirmation, this is a violation of consumer law. Document the charge, gather your cancellation confirmation email, and contact the centre immediately to dispute it. If they refuse to reverse the charge, file a complaint with your bank and your State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission. Yafee recommends setting a phone reminder 60 days after cancellation to verify no hidden fees have appeared.
Common mistakes that delay or prevent cancellation
Many gym members unintentionally weaken their cancellation claim by making procedural errors. You can avoid these traps by following the steps in this guide carefully.
Cancelling verbally without written confirmation
If you tell a gym staff member you want to cancel but do not submit a written request, the centre has no record of your intent. Staff turnover means the person you spoke to may no longer work there, and your verbal request is forgotten. Always submit your cancellation in writing via email or in-person written notice. Verbal requests do not protect you under the Consumer Protection Act because you cannot prove when the request was made or to whom.
Missing the 7-day refund deadline
The 7-day cooling-off period begins on the day you enrol, not the day you receive your membership card or first visit. Calculate carefully. If day 7 falls on a weekend or public holiday, some centres may not process refunds until the next business day, so cancel by day 6 to be safe. Once day 8 arrives, you forfeit the automatic refund right, though you can still cancel your membership-you simply lose the fee.
Not keeping proof of payment
If you cannot prove you paid the membership fee, the centre can claim you never enrolled and dismiss your cancellation request. Retain all receipts, bank statements, and payment confirmation emails. If your receipt is missing, request a duplicate from the centre immediately.
Cancelling without checking your membership type
Annual memberships have different refund rules than monthly memberships. If you paid ₹13,000 upfront for a 12-month plan and cancel on day 5, you recover the full amount. However, if you paid ₹1,200 monthly and cancel after 2 months, you cannot recover the first month's fee if you are past day 7. Verify your membership plan before calculating your refund.
Escalating to the consumer authority if the gym refuses
If Planet Fit Club refuses your cancellation, denies your refund claim, or fails to respond within 30 days, you can file a formal complaint with the consumer protection system.
Filing a complaint with the state consumer disputes redressal commission
- Visit your State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission website (search "[Your State] Consumer Commission" online).
- Download the complaint form or submit your complaint online if your state offers an e-filing portal.
- Include your membership ID, enrolment date, cancellation request date, and all supporting evidence: emails, receipts, bank statements, and screenshots.
- State your claim clearly: "Planet Fit Club refused to process my cancellation within the statutory 7-day period" or "The centre failed to refund my ₹[amount] within 30 days as required by law."
- Pay the nominal filing fee (typically ₹100 to ₹500 depending on your claim amount) and submit.
- The commission will summon Planet Fit Club and schedule a hearing. You do not need a lawyer, though you may bring one if you choose.
What to bring to your consumer hearing
- Original membership agreement and enrolment receipt.
- Proof of payment: bank statement pages showing the fee deduction and account holder name.
- Email correspondence with the centre, printed or on your phone.
- Your written cancellation request (email draft or photos of written notice).
- Proof of follow-up attempts: second email, call logs, or visit receipts.
- Screenshots of your gym app or card showing you cannot log in (confirming cancellation was processed).
Expected outcome and remedies
If the consumer commission rules in your favour, Planet Fit Club must refund your full fee plus compensation of up to ₹10,000 for deficiency in service. The centre must also cover the commission's administrative costs. The order is binding and enforceable. If Planet Fit Club does not comply, you can petition the district consumer authority or the state high court.

If the phone or email information is not listed, visit the centre in person during business hours (typically 6 AM to 10 PM for most gyms) and ask to speak to the membership manager. Request their email address and ask them to accept your written cancellation request on the spot. Always ask for a receipt or written confirmation that your request was submitted.
If you cannot reach your centre directly
Some smaller gyms do not maintain centralised customer service. If you cannot find contact details, try these alternatives:
- Search "Planet Fit Club [city name]" on Google Maps and use the "Contact" button.
- Check your membership card or enrolment receipt for an office phone number.
- If you enrolled online, check your email account for a confirmation email with centre contact details.
- Post a formal cancellation letter to the centre's address (if available) via registered post with acknowledgement due. Keep the postal receipt as proof of delivery.
