FTC sues LA Fitness and others for making it overly difficult to cancel gym memberships.

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has sued LA Fitness and other gyms, alleging they make it extremely difficult for customers to cancel memberships. The FTC claims that the process often requires in-person visits or mailing forms, and that gyms fail to clearly inform consumers about canceling additional services. The lawsuit seeks to stop these practices and provide refunds to affected consumers, arguing they violate federal laws.
