Complaint Description:
Breach of Contract for Conversion to a Lifetime Membership? About 20 years ago, the Tenn. state law concerning spa lifetime memberships was changed to pay a onetime conversion fee of $150 and $5 a year lifetime membership fee. In hopes of a French Riviera building close to where I live, I have continued to pay the nominal yearly fee according to the state contract rules, even though I have not worked out at the their spa during this time. I still have my Tenn. contract. Today I noticed when paying the fee that it has jumped to $35. I DO believe lifetime membership means lifetime as I am not dead. So I wonder if there will be any type of class action suit for this breach of contract? If their fee change is grounds for a class action suit, I hoped to be notified by other interested parties. I have paid this fee to Paramount Acceptance yearly as they are the billing agent for my contract, but I am told that I should contact a local French Rivera in turn who tell me it is Paramount Acceptance that told them to charge the fee. After repeated requests for knowing who is responsible being passed in circles, I see no answer in sight. I have contacted the BBB.
