September 25, 200520 yr Hi, I want to fitness first in bangkapi few days ago. First they told me 7,000Baht/month Then i told them it's farang fxxxing price, then they droped the price down to 10,380Baht for two months, still i found it very pricy! Later they said they could offer me extra 30 days for free, means three months for 10,380Baht, but i usually stay 60 days in thailand and return after a month only, so extra 30 days free would be worthless to me. Now, MY QUESTION IS, DID THEY TRY TO OVER CHARGE ME? -I will appreciate if someone can share here info about what is charged for monthly subscribtions and what is longer term subscrpition? -what are closest branded and non-branded gyms in Bangkapi and Ramkhamheng area?
September 25, 200520 yr I pay around 2000 baht a month a Fitness First..... dont worry what they say.....u can talk the price down... Edited September 25, 200520 yr by Siam_superfly
September 26, 200520 yr I join Cal Wow on Silom for 1000 baht down and 1200 bt / month. 12 months guarantee required. But that's "off peak" hours. Meaning I can't go into the gym between 4pm and 8pm Mon to Fri and from 1pm to 5 pm on Saturday. To tell the truth, the place is so packed during those hours, I don't want to be there anyway.

But California fitness seems to have 4 branchs, while you have access to Fitness first at nearly 11 locations. And how much you have to pay if no peak hour restrictions?
September 26, 200520 yr Author I pay around 2000 baht a month a Fitness First.....dont worry what they say.....u can talk the price down... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I send them a mail , asking for less price lets see what they will reply which branch do you use, and which branch have larger and better equiped? I prefer the mall bangkapi, since it has outdoor water world next to it (on the roof of shopping complex) and the gym is much larger than the like of landmark branch Edited September 26, 200520 yr by BKKDUDE
September 26, 200520 yr BKK Dude, I paid a lot less than you got quoted and, in hindsight, I think i was way overcharged. So yes I think they are taking you for a ride. They want your buisiness so keep talking them down on their "farang" price. We do not live in an equal society, thailand or elswhere.......
September 28, 200520 yr I pay about 1800 baht a month and was around 2 to join Fitness first, I would say the new Bangkapi one is best of ones ive been to so far.
September 28, 200520 yr I payed 1600THB per month for California Fitness .... Platinum membership and can be used anywhere in the world... You need to hustle the guys at the gym more ... Edited September 28, 200520 yr by tytus
