    Ok Situation:

    I signed into a contract to join a gym for 24 months, after 3 months my circumstances changed and i could no longer afford it. so i canceled the direct debit.

    I got letters saying i was in arrears and now they are threatening default on me. so i sent them an email and letter saying that i was canceling the membership as i could no longer afford it. They replied that there was no way out of it and i HAVE to pay the full amount. Then they started mentioning this other company called "CFM" (creative fitness marketing) say that i have a contract with them who i had never heard of until 2 days ago. No where during the sales/sign up process are these crowd mentioned as the group that i was signing a contract with and in Ashbourne's T&C it says "1. Membership
    If you confirm this agreement, you will become a member of the club that is referred to.
    This agreement sets out the terms that will govern the relationship between us, the club that is referred to, and you, a member of our club."

    To me that is a very ambiguous statement where they say "the club", to anyone signing up would mean the gym not "CFM". To me i see it as being "Bait and Switch" Baiting me with my local gym and switching the terms to tie me to another company that was never mentioned.

    Where do i stand with that?
