He recently joined a gym and he went tonight to be told he owes them £1000. Turns out he was a member when he was 16 and left without paying the remainder of his contract. They've left his debt open and with interest its racked up to £1000. 
Think I'd tell them to do one!

Place owned by mike ahern (warrior from gladiators) I used to be a member about 5 yrs ago, I fucked it off after a year and got told I was signed up for two. had some shoddy solictors on to me all the time, just kept telling them to fuck off, no knock on the door ever, mustn't have had anything legally binding considering I only signed up for a year fucking mongs.

I didn't think you could legally be tied into any contract until you're 18?
