It appears that Planet Fitness Platinum offers different pricing to different people. I would avoid describing the categories that goes with the pricing.
I started speaking to a sales person Banisile in January about joining and the best deal she told me she could offer was at R760month and for 24 months. Nothing less. I baulked at the offer and a friend offered me a free trial against his account to convince me to join. I accepted this offer and used the gym for a month. After completion of the free trial I have tried to purchase membership at the gym through another sales person Siboniso Ntshangase and been told that the offer stays at R760month and for 12 months.
Meanwhile, I know 3 colleagues who are currently paying different rates- two colleagues are paying less than R600?month for 14 months and the third colleague is paying R760month for 14 months.
I have reason to believe that there's discriminatory pricing going on here.
