Why this works

The Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act (ROSCA, 15 U.S.C. § 8403) is a federal statute requiring any company that sells subscriptions online to provide simple mechanisms to stop recurring charges. The FTC actively enforces it — including a $2.5 billion settlement with Amazon in 2025 over its Prime cancellation flow. Many states add their own auto-renewal laws on top. If LA Fitness requires a phone call, an in-person visit, or a maze of retention screens to cancel something you signed up for online in minutes, a letter that names the statute usually gets a faster, more serious response than another support ticket.

Gym and fitness memberships are consistently the most-complained-about category for cancellation friction — many still require an in-person visit, a mailed letter, or a phone call during limited hours, even though signing up took two minutes on a phone. Annual contracts sometimes tie cancellation to a narrow window around your billing date.

What to do

  1. Try canceling through LA Fitness's normal online process first, and note exactly where it breaks down.
  2. Use the form above to generate a formal letter citing federal law — free, no account needed.
  3. Send it to LA Fitness's customer support (email is usually easiest) and request written confirmation.
  4. If they don't respond within a reasonable time, you can also file a complaint directly with the FTC at reportfraud.ftc.gov.

Check your original contract for any cancellation-window language, and if the online option is broken, call during business hours as a backup — but still follow up in writing so you have a paper trail.
