FTC Sues LA Fitness for Making Consumers Sweat Gym Memberships
Complaint alleges gym chain puts up roadblocks to cancellation.
In December 2017, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Starz Entertainment for allegedly misleadingly advertising its “7 day free trial” by claiming that customers can cancel at any time when, according to plaintiffs, Starz makes it difficult to cancel trial subscriptions and instead automatically renews subscriptions and charges customers without notifying them, in violation of New York law. (Roberts et al v. Starz Entertainment, Case No. 17-cv-9452, E.D.N.Y.)
