How to cancel Everlast Gym and avoid locked-in charges
Why members cancel Everlast Gym in the philippines
Everlast Gym operates fitness facilities across the Philippines with a membership-based billing model that locks you into automatic monthly charges. You pay for access to gym equipment, group fitness classes, and member account support through a web portal or mobile app. The membership commitment runs for 12 months minimum, which means your card gets charged repeatedly until you formally request cancellation.
Members typically decide to leave because peak-hour class slots fill up quickly, commute distance becomes inconvenient, or life circumstances change. The real friction point is that Everlast Gym does not clearly publish its cancellation process, refund eligibility, or auto-renewal terms upfront. You may discover these hidden rules only after you commit to paying. Yafee has helped hundreds of fitness members in the Philippines navigate exactly this situation, and we will walk you through your cancellation rights and the specific steps you must take to exit without penalty.
What your membership covers
Your Everlast Gym membership grants you access to the physical facility, equipment use during operating hours, and participation in scheduled group classes. You also receive account management through the member portal, where you can book classes, track attendance, and manage your billing settings.
The problem is that class availability does not always match demand. Members report that evening and weekend slots fill within hours, leaving you unable to access the service you paid for during the times you actually need it. This mismatch between promised access and practical availability is a legitimate reason to cancel, and the law protects your right to do so.
The membership tiers and billing cycle
Everlast Gym offers two membership options in the Philippines. The Core Membership charges ₱25.00 per month, and the Champion Membership charges ₱30.00 per month. Both tier require a mandatory 12-month commitment, and your card will be charged automatically every month until you submit a formal cancellation request.
The terms of service do not clearly state whether you receive a free trial before your first charge, when your billing cycle resets after 12 months, or what happens if you cancel before the full year is up. You should assume that Everlast Gym will continue billing you automatically unless you receive written confirmation of cancellation. This lack of transparency is precisely why Yafee exists: to clarify what the law actually requires and what steps you must take to protect your rights.
Your consumer rights under philippine law
The Consumer Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 7394) is the legal framework that protects you from unfair billing, non-transparent terms, and automatic renewal traps.
What the consumer act of the philippines requires from Everlast Gym
Republic Act No. 7394 mandates that all membership terms, cancellation procedures, refund conditions, and auto-renewal language must be clearly disclosed to you in writing before you sign up and pay. The law explicitly prohibits unfair or unconscionable contract clauses, which includes locking you into automatic renewal without a transparent exit mechanism.
If Everlast Gym continues charging you after you request cancellation, or refuses to cancel because the cancellation procedure is buried or unclear, you have violated your rights under the Consumer Act. Yafee recommends that you document every communication with Everlast Gym support, because the burden of proof falls on the gym to show that cancellation terms were clearly disclosed.
Your legal position on refunds and service credits
The Consumer Act does not automatically guarantee a refund if you cancel mid-contract. However, it does require that any no-refund policy must be stated explicitly and clearly before you join. Since Everlast Gym does not clearly publish its refund policy on its official website or terms of service, you have grounds to request a pro-rata refund for unused membership weeks or months.
If Everlast Gym refuses your refund and claims you agreed to a no-refund 12-month commitment, ask the gym to provide the specific page, email, or document where this clause was disclosed to you before payment. If they cannot produce that proof, you can escalate to the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Consumer Protection Group, which investigates unfair business practices and can compel the gym to honour your cancellation and issue a refund.
What to do if Everlast Gym continues billing you
If you submit a cancellation request and Everlast Gym continues charging your card, you have the right to dispute the charge with your bank, GCash, or Maya. File a chargeback dispute within 60 days of the unauthorised charge, citing that you formally requested cancellation and the gym ignored your request. Include your cancellation email, SMS, or proof of in-person notice as supporting evidence.
You can also file a formal complaint with the DTI Consumer Protection Group at [email protected] or call 1-400-DTITAYO. The DTI has the authority to investigate Everlast Gym's cancellation practices and can order the gym to refund all charges made after your cancellation request.
Methods to cancel Everlast Gym membership
Everlast Gym does not clearly advertise a single cancellation method, which is part of the transparency problem. You must use multiple contact channels to ensure your cancellation request is recorded and acknowledged.
Contact information and official channels
The primary and only confirmed official Everlast Gym location identified on the official website is in Pasig City. Yafee recommends that you contact the Pasig facility directly to request cancellation, because in-person or phone-based requests create a paper trail.

Step-by-step cancellation procedure
Follow these steps in order to ensure your cancellation request is documented and legally binding.
Step 1: gather your membership information
Collect your Everlast Gym membership ID, the email address associated with your account, your billing phone number, and the payment method you registered (card or digital wallet). Take a screenshot of your current membership status from the app or online portal, showing your membership tier, monthly fee, and next billing date. Store these details in a safe place, because you will need them to prove your membership if Everlast Gym later disputes your cancellation.
Step 2: contact Everlast Gym support in writing
- Call or visit the Pasig City facility and ask for the cancellation request phone number or email address. Write down the name of the staff member you speak with and the date and time of the call.
- If you reach someone by phone, ask them to send you a cancellation form or confirmation email address.
- If you visit in person, request a printed cancellation form and ask staff to date and sign it before you leave.
- Send a formal email to Everlast Gym support with the subject line "Membership cancellation request [Your membership ID]". Include the following information:
- Your full name and membership ID.
- Your current membership tier (Core or Champion).
- Your billing start date and the effective date you want the cancellation to take effect.
- A clear statement: "I request immediate cancellation of my membership, effective [date]. Please confirm receipt of this request and provide a written cancellation notice within 5 business days."
- Your contact phone number and email address.
- If the gym does not respond within 5 business days, send a follow-up email marked "URGENT" and copy it to yourself for your records.
Step 3: confirm cancellation in writing
Everlast Gym must provide you with written confirmation of your cancellation, including the effective cancellation date and whether you are eligible for a refund. If the gym sends you a cancellation confirmation email, print it and store it with your membership documents. If the gym refuses to provide written confirmation, this is a red flag, and Yafee advises you to escalate to the DTI immediately.
Step 4: monitor your billing for 30 days
After your cancellation effective date, check your bank statement and payment apps (GCash, Maya, card statements) for the next 30 days. Confirm that no charges appear on your account. If Everlast Gym continues billing you after the cancellation effective date, take a screenshot of the unwanted charge and document the date.
Step 5: escalate if charges continue
If you are still being charged after your cancellation confirmation date, file a dispute immediately:
- Contact your bank, GCash, or Maya and file a chargeback dispute for unauthorised charges. Provide your cancellation confirmation email as evidence that you formally requested to stop the charges.
- Most payment providers will reverse the charge within 7 to 14 business days.
- If the chargeback fails or Everlast Gym contests it, file a formal complaint with the DTI Consumer Protection Group:
- Email: [email protected]
- Hotline: 1-400-DTITAYO
- Provide your membership ID, cancellation confirmation, proof of unwanted charges, and all communications with Everlast Gym.
- The DTI will investigate within 30 days and can order Everlast Gym to issue a full refund and cease billing immediately.
Refund eligibility and timeline
Your refund depends on whether Everlast Gym had a clearly disclosed no-refund policy before you joined.
When you are entitled to a refund
If Everlast Gym did not clearly disclose a no-refund or non-cancellable 12-month commitment clause before you paid, you are entitled to a pro-rata refund of unused membership fees. For example, if you cancel on day 15 of a 30-day month, you should receive a credit for the remaining 15 days. Yafee recommends that you request this calculation in your cancellation email and ask Everlast Gym to provide the refund within 14 days of the cancellation effective date.
When you may not receive a refund
If Everlast Gym can show you a clearly disclosed cancellation clause that states non-refundable 12-month commitment, and you signed or accepted these terms in writing before paying, the gym may not be required to refund you. However, the gym must still honour your cancellation request and stop charging you after the cancellation effective date. Any charges after that date are unlawful under the Consumer Act.
Refund processing time
Everlast Gym should process refunds within 14 to 30 days of your cancellation confirmation. If the gym does not refund you within 30 days, send a second written request citing the Consumer Act's requirement for prompt refund processing. If the gym delays beyond 30 days without explanation, escalate to the DTI, which can compel the refund plus interest.
Membership pricing and tiers
Understanding what you pay and what you are locked into is the first step to avoiding cancellation friction later.
| Membership tier |
Monthly fee |
Commitment period |
Included benefits |
| Core membership |
₱25.00 |
12 months minimum |
Facility access + equipment + limited class bookings |
| Champion membership |
₱30.00 |
12 months minimum |
Facility access + equipment + unlimited class bookings + priority booking |
What happens after you cancel
Cancellation does not end immediately; you need to manage the final billing cycle and confirm your card is no longer charged.
Your last billing cycle
On your cancellation effective date, Everlast Gym will process your final monthly charge. After that date, no further charges should appear. If you cancel mid-month, the gym may charge you for the full month and issue a service credit instead of a refund, depending on its policy. Ask for clarity on this during your cancellation request.
After your membership ends
Once your cancellation is confirmed, you lose access to the gym facility, equipment, and class bookings immediately. The mobile app or online portal may disable your login the same day or within 24 hours. You will no longer see your membership status or be able to book classes.
Confirm no future charges occur
Mark your calendar to check your bank statement on your next scheduled billing date (usually 30 days after cancellation). If you see any charge from Everlast Gym after this date, file a chargeback dispute immediately. This is your proof that the gym ignored your cancellation request, and the DTI will view this as an unfair business practice under the Consumer Act.
Common cancellation mistakes to avoid
Cancellation is straightforward if you follow the right steps, but small errors can leave you vulnerable to continued billing.
Mistake 1: relying only on in-app cancellation
If you cancel only through the mobile app or online portal without sending a written request email, you have no external proof that you requested cancellation. The gym's system may malfunction or delete your request. Instead, send an email cancellation request to support so you have a dated record that can be forwarded to your bank or the DTI if needed.
Mistake 2: not asking for written confirmation
If Everlast Gym verbally confirms your cancellation over the phone, insist that they send you an email confirmation with the cancellation effective date. Verbal promises are difficult to prove if the gym continues billing you. A dated email or signed cancellation form is your legal protection.
Mistake 3: cancelling without checking your next billing date
Know the exact date of your next monthly charge before you submit your cancellation. If you cancel on the 25th and your billing date is the 1st of next month, you will be charged one more time. Ask Everlast Gym whether this final charge will occur and whether you can get a credit or refund for those days. Yafee advises that you request your cancellation to take effect on or before your next billing date to avoid this issue.
Mistake 4: ignoring small follow-up charges
After cancellation, do not assume that a charge of ₱25 or ₱30 is inconsequential. File a chargeback dispute for any charge that occurs after your confirmed cancellation date. These repeated "small" charges often indicate that the gym did not process your cancellation in its billing system. Disputing them sends a signal that you are monitoring your account and will escalate to the DTI if the gym persists.
Comparison: keep versus cancel
Before you finalize cancellation, weigh whether your reasons to leave outweigh the cost and friction of staying.
| Factor |
Reasons to keep your membership |
Reasons to cancel |
| Cost per visit |
If you attend 10+ classes per month, you pay ₱2.50 to ₱3.00 per visit (low value). |
If you attend fewer than 5 times per month, you pay ₱5.00 to ₱6.00 per visit (high waste). |
| Class availability |
If you train in off-peak hours (early morning or midday), slots are usually available. |
If you rely on evening or weekend slots, peak overcrowding makes the service unusable. |
| Location convenience |
If you live or work near the Pasig City facility, commute cost is zero. |
If travel distance exceeds 30 minutes, commute time costs more than gym value. |
| Commitment flexibility |
If you are certain you will use the gym for 12+ months, the commitment is neutral. |
If your fitness goals, schedule, or life circumstances may change within 12 months, the lock-in is a trap. |
| Alternative gyms |
If no cheaper or more convenient alternative exists, staying keeps your familiar routine. |
If a competitor gym offers flexible monthly terms or better class schedules, switching saves money and stress. |
| Financial hardship |
If your budget is stable, ₱25 to ₱30 per month is sustainable. |
If your income has fallen or unexpected costs appeared, cancelling frees up cash immediately. |
Key documents to gather before you cancel
Preparation prevents disputes and ensures your cancellation is legally defensible.
- Your membership ID and account username.
- Proof of membership: a screenshot showing your tier, monthly fee, and join date.
- Your billing history: screenshots or bank statements showing all charges from Everlast Gym.
- The terms of service or membership agreement you signed (if you have a copy).
- Any promotional email or offer letter that promised specific class availability or refund terms.
- Contact name, date, and time of any phone calls to Everlast Gym support.
- Email confirmations of any previous complaints or issues you reported to the gym.
