Down with these overrated, overcharging, smelly gyms!

Sooo Bally's really tried me today buddy! I checked my voicemail and found a mysterious message from them saying I have a passed due balance. This made no sense because I have it set up for them to take automatic payments. So I figured out what happened. My bank had a security breach and issued new cards like a month ago. I forgot to update my autopay info with the new card info so that's why it wasn't working. HOWEVER, I definately did not appreciate how hard the guy was trying to sell to me. He was trying to get me to pay for the next 2 months in advance. Heck no! Ur lucky to be getting this month. And then he wanted me to pay a processing fee for the payment but I wasn't having it. If I can't pay you for free then you need to let me know how I can pay for free. I've never understood how places can really have the nerve to try 2 receive payment for a payment. Double dippin hoochies. So you would think that after I made it clear that I had no intention of paying them extra (he waved the processing fee) that he would quickly wind up my business and be done with it. Nope! He then proceeded to try to convince me to pay off my entire membership (over $1000)! Get outta here! I let him know that umm yea its a recession and I have other expenses to worry about. But of course he had an answer for this to. I could break it into 2 payments lol. Needless to say I testily opted out of this and firmly asked him to just process this months payment and reinstate my autopay. Why does everything have to be so difficult? *sigh*
