So, apparently it’s legal for my gym contract to say that they can automatically renew my membership after the end of the contract unless I cancel 3 months before. They are refusing to cancel my outstanding bill of course, greedy bastards, but, I went on the konsumentenschutz website and it’s stated that in order for that to be legal they should have told me a little bit before the 3 months that they were gonna renew it (Eine automatische Vertragsverlängerung ist zulässig: Wenn Sie bei Vertragsabschluss ausdrücklich über die automatische Vertragsverlängerung informiert wurden. Und rechtzeitig bei bevorstehender Erneuerung schriftlich über die auslaufende Kündigungsmöglichkeit informiert werden.) at least if google is translating correctly. I told them but they refuse anyway cause the contract clearly says 3 months. Have you got any advice for me? Am I fucked or is there someone I can talk to for help? submitted by /u/TheAngryMurloc
