Thanks for the reassurance Feeling much better about the whole thing! One more question though, I've just checked the contract and the opening hours are not written any where on the contract. Does this mean we don't have a chance of resolving this? Thanks in advance..

Hi slick, do you have any experience of these hateful people at AM? I've read that they do not give up harassing people with threats, debt collections etc I shall add that to my letter. Am worried that DH will end up with bad credit etc but don't want to pay these nasty worms a penny!

Thank you for the advice, I'll shall do as you've suggested. Hopefully I won't have to go to the county court but I'm willing to if that's what it takes!

We're having awful trouble with this company! My husband joined the gym in Feb this year because of it's long opening hours (he works nights so would use the gym between 8.30pm and 10pm) the gym owner then wrote a facebook message after around a month of my husband joining saying that he was changing the opening hours to close at 9pm...this is no use for my DH as he would only have around half an hour in the gym! So we wrote to the gym and ashbourne to cancel the membership due to this and now 3 months later we've had numerous amounts of threatening letters and they're now saying if he doesn't pay the £80 due plus the rest of the 12 months balance they will get debt collectors in. Any advice gratefully received....
