Leave a CommentShould have read the contract it is all there. nothing hidding.
The person behind the desk is a sales person and they lie!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Alway read the contract you sign and if they will not let you bring it home and read it in your time tell the to shuv it. things to look for, Cancel policy is to be held to the letter in more cares than not you must submitt written cancelation (send it certified mail) this wat if it ever comes back to bite you, you will have proof of your own, also get a letter from the contract holder stating the cantract has been satified and there are no funds owed. bottom line, Gym sales people are EVIL
Wow, Gym contract are tricky some will continue to run till the end of time, unless the contract is satified to the terms of that doc. the contract holder can continue to add every month and year.
WRONG --- the "Hidden" fees are placed by Paramount Acceptance..
Bill collection

Oh, you also use the word "uncancelable" on the contract. I guess your company isn't facile with the English language.The force is strong with the weak-minded.
Your contract with an outfit boggles the mind. In there it states that you cannot cancel it but the person behind the desk says you can cancel at anytime.So, which is it?
I have never had a gold's gym membership.. does anyone know who else they collect for?
People, get a clue. If a company is billing you and they are doing so by way of an mistake on their part and you are not really liable for the bill, just call your CC company and tell them you lost your card. They will issue you a new one, with a new account number. At least the future errant billing will stop. Then you can spend your time trying to recover the money that was stolen from your acct while not worrying about more money being siphoned out of the acct you closed.
My accounts are paid in full and I don't have any month auto deductions. So, I am wasn't sure about a one-off charge of $15.99. My request was simple, I just wanted to know what it was for. I have no problem paying it if I knwo what it is for. I really just want to ask a live person a question. No big deal. No complaint, just wanted to know what the $15.99 was for. Every call is just perpetual voice response unit. Then perma hold, then forced into a voice mail box. Then tried calling back several other times and, although the receptionist has a pleasant voice, she is nothing more than a mere robot herself. She clearly has caller ID, because she would just pick up and then auto transfer to the voice repsponse unit. So, I used a different phone, she answered, I asked to speak to someonw so I didn't have to put in a formal dispute on my credit card and she pressed the transfer ****on a***n. This went on for over an hour. I make more than $16 hour, so now they are costing me money. I will let my credit card company get the answer from them and file a formal dispute. Easier than waiting on perma hold.
I get the same nagging call from this number. They say I owe money on my Retro Fitness bill, however, when I went to the gym they say there's nothing outstanding
Paramount Acceptance. They are the billing company for my local gym. Fitness Nation. I signed up with a friend and paid for her initial membership fee with my cc. They then began to bill me for both accounts so I contacted them and said my friend was going to pay herself please stop billing me for that account. After making me write an email and getting her to write and email saying we wanted to stop auto-withdraw and use the coupons for manual payment we s****ed paying each month manually. Then a few months later she made a late payment and they took money from my cc. When I confronted them they claimed she told them to. What p.o'd me the most was:A: She would never have done that I have known her and she has been my closest friend for many years.and B: It's my cc ***ody else can give you access to my cc but ME! They actually argued with me saying I gave them authorization when I paid for her membership fee. It does not state that on anything I signed. I even showed the contract to 3 of my law professors and they agree. I asked the ***** who argued with me to have his supervisor call me. In the meantime I canceled my cc and when the supervisor called back I explained that by billing my cc without MY authorization it was in fact fraud and I have nothing else to say if they pursue me on this I will gladly skip into the courtroom smiling. I also had to cancel my membership with the gym which stinks but it's collateral damage I guess.
Read full article, explains the inner workings of how this all works. You are not the brightest light bulb. I have many different kinds of legal cases come to my desk everyday and every here and then I get one concerning Paramount Acceptance. I have done some digging, as I do not handle these types of cases, and have been given copies of contracts (which I found that the gym writes up not Paramount Acceptance). The following is the correct information on these matters. For updating information such as billing, address, and phone numbers it is the customer's explicit responsibility to update their information and not the job of Paramount Acceptance to babysit each member making sure they are paying the bills that THEY signed up for. On the subject of auto-renewal of the contract, there is a ****e for a signature that is required for this before signing the bottom, so those who say they are not notified are mistaken as it is right in front of them as they are signing what they don't read. As far as fees go it is simple, missed payments = fees, and it is your fault for missing a payment, a***n this company is not here to babysit you. For canceling anytime, there is no such thing with these types of contracts, don't listen to the gym rep. who signs you up, they just want their commission, so read the contract thoroughly. If you want an attorney that is great because then they can look over your contract and explain how wrong you are and what a contract means in the legal system. If you would like to contact the B.B.B. (Better Business Bureau) please do so as Paramount Acceptance has a B+ rating and after your report Paramount your complaint willed be followed by a response explaining how Paramount is within the law on all they do. Also the F.C.C. and the F.T.C. both are very strict but have stated that Paramount has the legal right to collect, call, file suit, send mail/email, so complaining to them is a waste because Paramount is an official company with all of the above. Nothing shady about any of this, no lies, it is all in the contract and it would be completely irresponsible not to read it through. You may argue all you like but if you refuse to abide by the contract the account won't stop at Paramount, it will go to a separate collections agency that doesn't just use the phone to contact you, and eventually it will go to an Attorney and one day you will be at your house, work, or even out shopping and be served a subpoena containing court date. Also it will be sent to the Credit Bureau and they may not even need to notify you of this. Further refusal to pay can result in garnishing of wages and tax returns or a court ordered penalty. It may not happen quickly but a year or two down the line when it happens after you thought it was over and forgotten it will cause more trouble than if you had just paid in the first place. The legal system may take years but it is effective and never misses a note (or you). Good examples of those having no clue whatsoever are below and have left comments to this entry.Thanks for reading
@PA yes, thats what it says, but things happen like people lose their jobs, or die. and im soory but eating, and having a place to lay my head at night is more important that working out, so it is very unfair to those individuals who go through this for you to tell them that they cannot cancel their contract.....what a load of ****. your company deserves to be sued! I have not found any good reviews on this company and I have been looking since sunday of last week!
They just called me three times in five minutes, at WORK!
I did not answer the call because I was at work, but I call the number back and it was to this Paramount Acceptance. I have never heard of them and would like then to stop calling
pa, does this mean the previous poster's advice is null/void? that paramount acceptance is the original creditor?
This is Paramount Acceptance in Holladay, UT. If you signed a contract with Golds Gym there is a clause on YOUR contract that says you agree all payment arrangements etc. will be processed and/or collected by Paramount Acceptance.
Paramount Acceptance in Utah - Collection Agency for Gold's Gymn. Your Contract is with Gold's Gymn NOT with Paramount Acceptance Agency!!! A good place to file a complaint is with the Federal Communications Commission. The rules they govern are stricter. I believe it is complaint # 1088 FCC doesn't mess with complaints; and my complaints in the past have always been investigated!!! FTC and donotcall, place complaints on a list, and will investigate, file charges if they see a pattern. So everyone needs to file complaints, so that there will be a definite pattern!.Anyone have problems with Collection Agencies calling? There are laws to protect Consumers from these ****s. #1, they technically do not have any authority. They usually purchase charged off bills, from other creditors for pennies on the dollar. #2, because the bill is with an original creditor, you are NOT obligated to these ****s. They will try to convince you that you are. #3 the only way you become obligated to these agencies, is if you make payment arrangements with them; thereby creating a contract/agreement, where none exist, when they first contact you!!!If you answer the phone, simply say:"I do not discuss financial matters by phone - send me a statement in writing and I will respond to it." Then **** up!!! Otherwise, they will have you completely shaken!!! The longer they keep you on the line, the more chance they have, to get money from you including payment arrangements – or payment agreement/contract!!! You are NOT legally obligated to talk to them!!!Collection agencies are ruthless ****s!!! They will tell you they are the original creditor when they are not - even though it is illegal, for them to do it, per Federal Consumer Protection Laws. You can legally sue them for $1,000.00 per violation.When you do get a statement - google "FAIR DEBT COLLECTION PRACTICES ACT" One or more online Attorney websites will be shown. These websites will have valuable information, including a Cease & Desist sample letter; or a Cease Communication letter. Once received, it is a violation of the Federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, to contact you further.You can also educate yourself by reading Consumer Protection Laws at www.ftc.gov; a lot of valuable information. Don’t have time, download and read later. You will be glad you did!!!I am not an Attorney - just an Educated Consumer, in Consumer Protection Laws. I have spent hours studying these laws and becoming familiar with them. They have helped us and friends/family as well; and hopefully it will help someone, who reads this.And for those self-righteous criticizers, who say, just pay your bills on time; things happen to people with Credit Card debt, medical bills etc., often beyond their control such as job loss, divorce, *****, illness etc. and you find your self in a bind. We've been there, we know. You do not plan to pay late, or not make payments; but if the income quits - there's not a whole lot one can do! You then are forced to prioritize, Mortgage, Utilities, Car payment then food, if you can! Other things have to be let go! I hope this information will be helpful to somebody who reads it!!! Also another site to check out is www.ccdnlaw.com, good information. And they can help you!!! If you fill out the contact us, put down your referral by tlcpetmommy – in the comments section; they will know who I am!!!
This number is Paramount Acceptance in Holladay. They handle collections from Gold's gym. Don't be surprised if you're not expecting a bill or call from them because I was never told about paying an additional $30/yr. when I signed my Gold's Gym contract. It's all about the hidden fees!
No VM. No idea who this is.
