To ensure the gym's operational efficiency, we have established a clear policy regarding delinquent membership payments. This policy outlines the steps that will be taken if payments are not received on time. Key Points of the Policy:

Membership payments are due on the date of the month for which you signed the original contract. If payment is not received within 5 business days after the due date, the member's key code access will be turned off until the outstanding payment is received. If a member's account remains unpaid for three months, the outstanding balance will be sent to collections. Members will be responsible for any additional fees incurred during the collections process.

Late Payment Process:

1. A reminder will be sent to the member if the payment is not received by the due date.

2. If the payment remains unpaid 5 business days past the due date, the member's key code access to Anchor Point Gym will be deactivated. The member will be notified of the deactivation and reminded to settle the outstanding balance to restore access.

3. If the member fails to make payments for three consecutive months, the account will be forwarded to a collection agency. The member will be liable for all collection costs in addition to the overdue.

This policy helps ensure that all members understand the consequences of late payments and provides a clear procedure for handling overdue accounts. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
