Hello,
5 months ago i decided to join a local gym and signed a bank mandate form for the membership of 80 to come out monthly for 6 months. The first month i paid by cash,so i had five direct debits to pay.
After two months neither of the monthly direct debits came out so i informed the gym manager, on the third month nothing came out again so i did the same and informed the manager.he told me the finance department were aware of the problem.
I now owe them 4 months membership and two weeks ago i received a letter from them telling me that they had a problem with the bank and that they would be taken the money out next early next week for the 4 months that i owed them (and they said they would give me 10% discount if i rejoined for the inconvience). They promised it would come out early next week,which is 10 days gone and still no sign of money coming out.
I am getting sick of it and im thinking of going down to the bank and just cancelling the gym direct debit and keeping the money i owe,since there not tooo keen on taking the money out themselves. have i any right to do this or can they come looking for the money. The contract i signed was for the money to come out every month which hasnt happened.
any advice
