    On June 24, 2023 I submitted a written notice to Encompass Fitness Marlborough to cancel my gym membership as I was relocating out of the area. I received a call approximately one week later asking why I wanted to cancel so some one was aware of the cancellation. I then saw a membership charge on my credit card billed September 19, 2023. I called and spoke to the gym owner, *********************** who said his Billing Manager at the time did not keep accurate records and he had no documentation of the cancellation. He advised he was cancelling the membership that day and asked if I wanted the refund of the dues sent to my new address. I said yes but did not receive any refund and heard nothing further. On January 29, **** I received an email from Encompass stating I owe $159.96 for past dues and they had tried to reach me at my former phone number which was disconnected when I moved on Sept. 18th. This is first contact I have had since I spoke to ***** on September 19th, 2023. I called the gym again on Wednesday, January 31, **** and spoke to ***** who advised he saw that the membership was now cancelled but had an outstanding balance. I also responded to the email which had no signature and wrote out my story and received a reply that it would be looked into and someone would get back to me. To date I have not heard back.I did my part to cancel the membership timely and keep getting the run around about no cancellation and owing outstanding dues. I am fine not pursuing the membership due I was charged incorrectly after I cancelled originally in June 2023. My resolution request is for Encompass Fitness to adjust their billing to reflect I do not owe any outstanding dues and there will be no impact to my credit. Please assist if possible and call with any questions.
