  Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. Im very sorry to hear about your frustration we never want any member to feel unheard or unsupported.
  
  As outlined in our Terms of Service, all ob subscriptions are set to auto-renew by default, and members can cancel at any time directly through their user profile. This policy is also presented at checkout during sign-up. While we do not currently send pre-renewal reminder emails, the renewal terms are clearly stated at the time of purchase.
  
  That said, I understand your situation and, although it falls outside our standard refund policy, Ive made a one-time exception and fully refunded the $169 charge to your original payment method.
  
  We appreciate your past support and wish you all the best in your wellness journey.

  I was charged $199 for an annual membership to this service on 4/28/2025. I used the service years ago (for a much smaller subscription fee at the time) and had no idea I was signed up for an annual membership. Im guessing used a promotional rate for a much smaller fee at one point to sign up. I couldnt tell you the last time used the program, but it has been well over a year maybe even two years since I last used it. I did not realize that I was charged this amount in 2024 or I would have canceled it then. I tried to contact the business within a few days of the charge occurring (as soon as I saw it on my bank account). I asked them to cancel my membership immediately and requested a refund. They would not refund me. The biggest issue I have is that it is obvious I am not using the services that I was charged for. They can log on and easily see that. If I was an active user I would understand why they might deny the refund. I also think it is very wrong that they did not contact me in any format to alert me that the charge was coming up. There was no heads up or notification about it. Ever. Zero communication. In fact, I dont think *** received any communication from Obe fitness in over a year (with the exception of the response to my email requesting they cancel my account).There should be a warning or notification so users have the opportunity to cancel before getting charged $199.

  I canceled this service on line in January 2025 but was billed anyway in February for another full years service. I was charged $169 and would like a refund There cancelation page is misleading and confusing. THey ask you if you want to cancel. Youcheck yes and then they ask you why. I chacked to expensive. they give you a better offer and ask you again if you want to cancel. They do this three or four times to confuse you .THis is an unfair practice. I checked that I wanted to cancel and that should be it.

  Thank you for notifying us of **** ***** ********* complaint. We have gathered the relevant information to support our response, which is as follows:
  In response to *** ********* BBB complaint, and in our dedication to resolving this matter to her satisfaction, we issued a full refund today for her annual membership fee of $169, which was charged in February 2025. We also made *** ******** aware of the refund today via direct communication.
  *** ******** shared that she canceled her membership online in January 2025, but was still billed in February. She expressed concern that the cancellation process is confusing and includes repeated prompts that make it difficult to finalize the cancellation. We want to sincerely apologize for any frustration caused by this experience.
  While our cancellation flow includes multiple steps to ensure members dont accidentally cancel and to offer potential alternatives, we recognize that this process should be simple and transparent. We are actively reviewing the flow to ensure that once a member selects to cancel, that intent is clearly confirmed and honored without unnecessary complexity.
  We did not find a record of a cancellation-related email from *** ******** in our system before the charge. That said, we take her feedback seriously. Our customer service team is available MondayFriday, 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST, and members can contact us any time via ****************************** or through our websites contact form.
  We greatly appreciate *** ********* feedback and the opportunity to address this matter directly. Our goal is always to improve and ensure that our members feel respected and supported.

  I cancelled my Obe membership a long time ago in 2023 before my 3 month trial membership would auto-renew. On May 1 of this year (2025), I was charged $169.00 with no prior notification. When I go to click on the Contact tab in Obe's website, it is blank, and there is no number listed to call. This charge is not authorized and if you read the complaints on this BBB site, so many others have been scammed and stolen from by Obe as well.

  Tell us why here...Thank you for notifying us of the complaint submitted by ********************** We have gathered the relevant information to support our response, which is as follows:
  
  In response to this BBB complaint, we have reviewed our records and confirmed that the users subscription began on May 1, 2024.

  Additionally, we have thoroughly checked our systems and can confirm that we have no record of a cancellation request or any communication attempting to cancel from the user associated with the email address **********************
  
  To ensure transparency and ease of access, all Ob users are able to self-cancel their subscriptions at any time through the Manage Subscription tab in their account settings. Our platform is designed to empower users with full control over their membership status.

  I have attempted to reach out to this company via email- their only listed way to contact customer service- several times trying to cancel a membership that I thought was canceled years ago before the charge went through. Never responded and charge still went through.

  I reviewed my online credit card statements and discovered that I was being charged $24.99 per month for 10/18/24, 11/18/24, 12/18/24, and 1/18/25 by OBE Fitness for a total of $99.96 to date. It appears to be a reoccurring charge, and I will probably continue to be charged this amount. I did not authorize this charge, and I never heard of this company. I was able to find their website by looking up the following link. ********************. The website does not have contact information such as phone number or email address. I have no idea how to contact this company and cancel this reoccurring charge.I filed a fraud claim with the credit card company, and they are going to issue a new card to me. I do not use this card for any purchases, and I have no idea how it was used to pay for this unauthorized transaction. Are you able to help me with this problem?

  To Whom It May Concern,
  
  This complaint is the first we have heard of this issue. We have reached out to ***** ******* multiple times in an effort to resolve her concern. However, she has refused to provide the necessary information for us to process a refund.
  
  We are unable to locate an account under the name or email provided. In such cases, we typically search our system using alternative details such as zip code, date of charge, and the last four digits of the card used for the transaction. Unfortunately, without her participation and this critical information, we cannot offer a refund for a charge we are unable to verify.
  
  We would love to rectify this issue, but without her cooperation, that is not possible. I have attached our attempts at communication with *** ******** where she explicitly states she will not provide the last four digits of her card.
  
  Please let us know if further clarification is needed.

  I was offered a 3-month free trial with obe fitness by being an icon member with Athleta back in September 2022. After I used the free benefit for 11 classes and I decided it was not a good fit for me. I do not recall how I was made to sign up for yearly membership and I have not received any email or letter from obe to remind me about this membershipand renewals. I was charged $169 every year on Christmas Day for the last three years. I would like to file a complaint about this business practice and request a refund of my most recent charge on 12/25/2024. There was not an easy way to cancel the membershiponline until recently. And I was out of town when the most recent charge was made so I was not able to deal with it right away. When I finally canceled online today, obe is not offering any refund.This is a scam that needs to be addressed by BBB.
