How to cancel Blast Fitness in the philippines and stop unwanted charges
Understanding Blast Fitness and your membership commitment
Blast Fitness operates a gym membership service in the Philippines under the BeFit brand, offering flexible monthly plans with no upfront annual fees. Your membership gives you access to gym facilities and group classes, but the cancellation process is often unclear, which leaves many Filipino members confused about how to stop their charges. Understanding what you have signed up for is the foundation of cancelling without frustration.
What Blast Fitness delivers in practice
Blast Fitness markets two membership tiers: BeFit Core at ₱999 per month and BeFit Platinum at ₱1,199 per month. Core membership provides 24/7 gym access, use of over 100 machines, and unlimited group classes including Strength, High Intensity, Spinning, and Dance-Based sessions. Platinum adds access to multiple club locations across the Philippines.
Your monthly fee covers facility and class access only; equipment rental, personal training, and specialized programs are billed separately. Billing occurs on a monthly or every-15-days cycle depending on your signup method, which means your cancellation cutoff date varies. Confirm your exact billing cycle before submitting your cancellation request to avoid being charged again after you request to leave.
Why cancellation becomes difficult
Blast Fitness does not publish a dedicated customer service phone number, email address, or documented support hours on its main website. This lack of transparent contact information is why many Filipino members struggle to reach the company and confirm their cancellation. Furthermore, members report unclear cancellation timelines and difficulty obtaining refunds for overpayments.
Yafee recognises this pattern across Philippine gyms and has created resources to help you navigate the cancellation process with clarity and confidence. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you will know exactly what to do, where to send your request, and what your legal rights are if Blast Fitness refuses to cooperate.
Your consumer rights under philippine law
As a Philippine consumer, you have legal protections that apply to your Blast Fitness membership, even if the company does not make cancellation straightforward.
The consumer act of the philippines protects your interests
Republic Act No. 7394 (the Consumer Act of the Philippines) is the primary law governing all consumer transactions in the country, including gym memberships. This law requires all service providers to disclose cancellation terms clearly before you sign up. It also prohibits unfair contract terms and gives you the right to cancel without excessive penalties if the company fails to provide transparent information upfront.
Under this law, Blast Fitness must inform you of:
- The exact cancellation procedure
- Any notice period required before cancellation takes effect
- Whether early termination fees apply (and if so, the amount)
- Your right to cancel if the company breaches its obligations
If Blast Fitness continues to bill you after you request cancellation, or if they refuse to acknowledge your request, you have the right to file a complaint with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI). The DTI is the government agency responsible for consumer protection in the Philippines and can pressure companies to refund improper charges and cease unauthorized billing.
Your legal position on cancellation
You have the right to cancel your Blast Fitness membership at any time if the company advertises "contract-free" terms. If Blast Fitness claims you must continue paying after you request cancellation, ask them to cite the specific clause in your contract that requires this. If they cannot provide written evidence, their demand is likely unenforceable under Philippine law. Keep all communication records-emails, SMS, call logs, and bank statements-to support any escalation with the DTI.
If the company refuses to acknowledge your cancellation request within 7 to 14 days, document every attempt you make to contact them and file a formal complaint with the DTI. You can submit a complaint online at the DTI website or visit your local DTI office in person.
Pricing, billing cycles, and what you actually pay
Blast Fitness charges differ based on your membership tier and billing frequency, so understanding your exact costs is essential before you cancel.
| Membership tier |
Monthly cost (PHP) |
Key features |
| BeFit Core |
₱999 |
24/7 gym access, 100+ machines, unlimited group classes at one location |
| BeFit Platinum |
₱1,199 |
All Core features plus multi-location access across the Philippines |
Your billing cycle determines when your next charge occurs and when your cancellation takes effect. If you are billed every 15 days instead of monthly, you will receive charges twice as often, which affects your cancellation timing. Review your bank statements or membership dashboard to confirm your exact billing date, then request cancellation at least 7 days before your next scheduled charge to avoid being billed again.
Step-by-step guide to cancelling your Blast Fitness membership
Follow these steps in order to cancel your Blast Fitness membership and document your request properly.
Step 1: gather your account and payment information
Before contacting Blast Fitness, collect the following details:
- Your membership account number (found on your membership card or receipt)
- The email address you used to register
- Your phone number associated with the account
- Your billing date and the amount of your last charge
- Your preferred cancellation date
Having this information ready will speed up the cancellation process and reduce the risk of the company claiming they cannot locate your account.
Step 2: contact Blast Fitness through available channels
Since Blast Fitness does not publish a dedicated support phone line, use these contact methods:
- Visit your local Blast Fitness gym branch in person. Ask to speak with a manager and request a cancellation form. Bring a copy of your membership card and a valid ID. Ask the staff to stamp or sign a copy of your cancellation request as proof of submission.
- This is the most reliable method because you obtain direct proof of your request.
- Send an email to the gym's general inquiry email address. If you do not have this address, contact Blast Fitness through its social media accounts (Facebook, Instagram) and ask for the cancellation email address.
- Include your full name, membership account number, email address, phone number, and cancellation effective date in your email.
- Request a confirmation email within 48 hours.
- Send a certified letter via postal mail. If email or in-person contact fails, send a registered letter to Blast Fitness's registered business address (see the address section at the end of this guide). Use "Cancellation of Membership" as the subject line.
- Include your membership details and request delivery confirmation.
- Keep the postal receipt as proof of submission.
Step 3: confirm your cancellation in writing
After you submit your cancellation request, send a follow-up message (email or SMS) within 24 hours restating your intention to cancel and your preferred cancellation date. This creates a clear record of your request and protects you if the company later claims they never received it.
In your follow-up message, include:
- "I request cancellation of my Blast Fitness membership, account number [your account number], effective [specific date]."
- A statement that you do not authorize any further charges after your cancellation date.
- A request for written confirmation of your cancellation.
Step 4: obtain written confirmation of cancellation
Once Blast Fitness acknowledges your cancellation, request a written confirmation email or letter that includes:
- Your membership account number
- Your cancellation effective date
- A statement that no further charges will occur after that date
- Instructions for returning your membership card (if applicable)
Save this confirmation email and print a hard copy. This document is your proof of cancellation and is essential if you need to dispute any charges after your cancellation date.
Step 5: monitor your bank account for unauthorized charges
For the next two billing cycles after your cancellation date, check your bank statement carefully to ensure Blast Fitness has stopped charging you. If you see a charge after your cancellation effective date, this is an unauthorized transaction under Philippine law and you have the right to dispute it.
Contact your bank immediately and explain that you cancelled your membership. Your bank can issue a chargeback or reversal if Blast Fitness cannot prove they had authorization to charge you after your cancellation date. Keep your cancellation confirmation email handy when you call your bank.
What to do after your cancellation is confirmed
After Blast Fitness confirms your cancellation, take these steps to finalize the process and protect yourself from future disputes.
Obtain a final account statement
Request a final account statement from Blast Fitness showing your last charge date and your account balance. If you are owed a refund for overpayment or unused membership days, this statement will prove your claim. Yafee recommends requesting this statement in writing and keeping a copy for your records.
Return your membership card and access credentials
If Blast Fitness provided a physical membership card, return it to your local gym branch or as instructed in your cancellation confirmation. Request a signed receipt confirming return of the card. If you have a digital app login, change your password immediately to prevent unauthorized access.
Request a refund for unused days if applicable
If you cancelled mid-cycle (before your next billing date), you may be entitled to a pro-rata refund for the unused portion of your membership. Calculate the number of unused days and divide your monthly fee by 30 to determine the refund amount you should receive. Send a formal request to Blast Fitness citing this calculation and the Consumer Act of the Philippines as the legal basis for your refund claim.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Many Filipino members make cancellation errors that delay their release from the membership or result in continued charges. These mistakes are avoidable if you follow the steps outlined above.
Mistake 1: stopping your bank payments without notifying Blast Fitness
Do not cancel your bank payment arrangement or dispute a charge with your bank before you have formally cancelled your membership with Blast Fitness. If you dispute a charge without cancelling, Blast Fitness may claim you breached the contract and refuse to process your cancellation. Always cancel the membership first, then monitor your account for unauthorized charges afterward.
Mistake 2: relying on verbal cancellation promises
If a gym staff member verbally tells you "your cancellation is processed," do not assume it is final. Verbal promises are not legally binding and provide no proof if disputes arise later. Always obtain written confirmation of your cancellation via email or signed letter before you consider the process complete.
Mistake 3: missing your cancellation deadline
If your membership agreement specifies a notice period (for example, "cancel at least 7 days before your billing date"), submit your cancellation request well before that deadline. If you miss the deadline, you may be charged for an additional billing cycle. Yafee advises submitting your cancellation request at least 10 to 14 days before your next expected charge to avoid this risk.
Mistake 4: not checking for overpayment refunds
After your cancellation is confirmed, check whether Blast Fitness owes you a refund for unused membership days. Many members forget to request this refund and lose money unnecessarily. If you paid for a full month but cancelled mid-month, you are entitled to a pro-rata refund under the Consumer Act of the Philippines.
Escalation: what to do if Blast Fitness refuses to cancel
If Blast Fitness ignores your cancellation request, continues to charge you after your stated cancellation date, or refuses to provide a refund, you have recourse under Philippine law.
Document all failed cancellation attempts
Keep a detailed log of every attempt to cancel:
- Date and time of your request
- The method you used (email, phone, in-person visit)
- The name of the staff member who assisted you (if applicable)
- The company's response (or lack thereof)
- Any confirmation or receipt numbers
Collect screenshots of emails, SMS messages, call records, and bank statements showing unauthorized charges. This documentation is your evidence for an escalation to the DTI.
File a formal complaint with the department of trade and industry
If Blast Fitness continues to charge you more than 14 days after your cancellation request, or if they refuse to acknowledge your request, file a formal complaint with the DTI. You can submit your complaint:
- Online at the DTI website (dti.gov.ph)
- In person at your local DTI office
- By certified mail to the DTI central office in Manila
In your complaint, explain:
- The date and method of your cancellation request
- How many unauthorized charges have occurred since your request
- The total amount you have been overcharged
- Your attempts to resolve the issue directly with Blast Fitness
- A clear request for refund of all unauthorized charges
The DTI will investigate your complaint and contact Blast Fitness on your behalf. In many cases, the threat of DTI action prompts the company to process your cancellation and refund immediately.
Refund eligibility and timeline
Your entitlement to a refund depends on when you cancelled and your specific membership terms.
Pro-rata refund for early cancellation
If you cancelled before the end of your billing cycle, you are entitled to a pro-rata refund for the unused portion of your membership. Calculate this as follows:
- Divide your monthly membership fee by 30 days
- Multiply the daily rate by the number of unused days remaining in your billing cycle
- This amount is your refund
For example: if you paid ₱999 for BeFit Core and cancelled on day 15 of a 30-day cycle, your refund is (₱999 ÷ 30) × 15 = ₱499.50.
Refund for unauthorized charges after cancellation
If Blast Fitness continues to charge your account after your cancellation effective date, every charge is unauthorized and must be refunded in full. Contact your bank immediately and dispute the charge as an unauthorized transaction. Your bank will reverse the charge and may impose a fee on Blast Fitness for the chargeback. Yafee recommends keeping your cancellation confirmation email as proof when you dispute these charges with your bank.
Refund timeline expectations
Once Blast Fitness approves a refund, expect the money to appear in your bank account within 5 to 10 business days. If the refund does not arrive after 10 business days, contact your bank to confirm they have received the transfer from Blast Fitness. If Blast Fitness refuses to issue a refund, escalate to the DTI, which can compel the company to refund you through legal action.
Should you cancel? factors to consider
Before you submit your cancellation request, weigh whether cancellation is the right decision for your situation.

Reviews and member experiences with Blast Fitness cancellation
Filipino members have reported mixed experiences when cancelling their Blast Fitness memberships. While some report smooth cancellations when they visit their gym branch in person, others have experienced difficulty reaching the company and obtaining refunds. The most common complaint is the lack of a published phone number or email address for cancellations, which forces members to visit the gym in person or contact the company through social media.
Yafee has documented cases where members were charged for 1 to 3 months after their stated cancellation date because they did not obtain written confirmation of their cancellation. This reinforces the importance of requesting documented proof from Blast Fitness before you consider your cancellation final.
Members who successfully cancelled reported that in-person visits to the gym during business hours were the most effective method, particularly when they requested a signed cancellation form from the manager. Email contact often resulted in delayed responses or no response at all, which is why written postal contact and DTI escalation became necessary in some cases.
Use these addresses and contacts to submit your cancellation request or escalate unresolved disputes.
Blast Fitness cancellation contact methods
In-person visits (recommended method): Visit your local Blast Fitness gym branch during business hours and request cancellation from the manager. Ask for a signed cancellation form or receipt.
