However, exam stress led me to pause my membership and then as I completed uni I could no longer afford the extortionate £140/ month fee and decided to cancel. (unemployed with no income). BUT, the tiniest small print in the contract included a 12 month notice period needed. meaning I now owed over £1000 for a gym I wont use and cannot even afford the monthly payment.
