Anytime Fitness Paignton: Opinions
Positive experience: Lovely environment the members clean up after themselves. Very hygienic
Negative experience: I’m gutted as it started off as an ideal solution for my training but after taking a break for studies and then returning, the gym had seriously deteriorated. There were areas cordoned off, equipment not working and positively dangerous sections on the functional floor area. I tripped over it once and witnessed others doing the same. As a PE teacher, I understand the importance of a safe environment and good communication. The staff I have communicated with were friendly but when I tried to raise my concerns with the manager I wasn’t listened to. I explained it was not a safe environment and I wasn’t getting what I’d signed up for as classes were reduced and there were less staff, with reduced hours when the gym was covered by a member of staff. I requested to cancel my subscription (a one year sign in which is quite excessive nowdays) because the gym wasn’t meeting the terms of the contract but I was not taken seriously. After realising I wasn’t going to be listened to, I felt uncomfortable returning as well as having safety concerns, so cancelled my DD. Now I have received a letter from debt collectors - be careful before signing up for this gym! It is especially sad in this day and age that there seems to be an element of sex discrimination at play, I was made to feel uncomfortable by the manager after beating him in a physical challenge
Negative experience: I paid a year membership upfront and after joining there were an area in the weights room cordoned off like a building site, and half of the toilets were always broken. I decided to stop going for a few months as I didn't find the gym a pleasant experience with the cordoned off area and bubbled up matt's, I started back today after months away from this gym and the area is still in disarray and still the same area cordoned off. This gym is not great, the experience is crap but the staff are extremely friendly and courteous, it's just a shame it's taking months to sort something as simple as this. I've sent an Email sent to manager to try and obtain a refund. Sorry for this review but your gym isn't cheap and should be on point and maintained
Negative experience: not a great experience honestly. half the toilets out of order and in the free weights areas cornered off with yellow tape and really intimidating all round as a first time gym member. not to mention the premium you pay for this.
Hello Megan, Thank you for your review. We're very sorry about the area that is currently cordoned off due to repairs. I'm surprised to hear that you found our club intimidating, as we pride ourselves on the community that we have here at Anytime Fitness Paignton. Your review is concerning to us and we need to know more. Please call 01803 500247 to speak with someone from our team. Kindest regards, Marcus Phillips - Club Manager

Fantastic experience: Joined specifically for the spinning classes. They are amazing and keep me motivated and sane! I find the facilities to be clean, tidy and very useful when I need to go straight on to work. One day I might actually use the gym but with the annual membership I get a great deal. The staff are very friendly. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Probably the best gym I have ever been apart of! The staff are incredible and I have made some fantastic friends for life. In terms of cleanliness the team always make sure this is a foremost and they really do look after their members and they will know when I say I like to talk for England and yet they are just do accommodating even when I have had poor mental health they have always asked how I am how my session are and really go out of their way I couldn’t ask for a better gym/family to be apart of.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with lovely staff and fantastic equipment A*
Fantastic experience: Unbelievable atmosphere, staff super friendly!
Fantastic experience: Best gym in the area, staff are always available and have the best machines and atmosphere
Fantastic experience: Great gym, staff are always really friendly, helpful and interested in helping you achieve your goals. Very clean and well maintained too. Good selection of classes at various times in the day. Anytime workouts app is a great tool for planning and tracking your training programme as well. Would recommend.
Fantastic experience: An amazing gym. I've trained all over the place before and this is one of the slickest gyms I've been to. The staff are all friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Good balance of members and I enjoy the free weights area and classes which are inclusive. Also love how focused and up to date they are with Wellbeing and developing a person holistically. Great offers and discounts available through the 'connect' website and loads of videos and content to access on mental health. Enjoyed using the biometric machine to get an indepth breakdown of my body composition. I highly recommend this gym to anyone of any level and training type- very personalised and good at tailoring to individual needs.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member at ATF since the day they opened. I’ve always found the staff to be really friendly and approachable. If training during staffed hours they’re always on hand and happy to help with any questions. The gym has a great and friendly atmosphere. If you’re looking for a gym where you can feel completely comfortable look no further. There is also a selection of classes to choose from and all included in your membership so also great value for money too.
Fantastic experience: Great, friendly, spacious gym. Open 24/7 so perfect for any one interested in joining the gym. Not too busy even at peak times, with a variety of classes to join too. Staff always around to help if needed.
Fantastic experience: Have been going to Anytime Fitness since 2018, would highly recommend! It's a great gym with a great atmosphere. All the staff are friendly and happy to help with anything you need. Ben is an amazing coach and really pushes me during our PT sessions. Steve, Marcus and Yasmin are always on hand for any questions and you're greeted with a smile whenever you walk in! Best gym, if I could give more than 5* I would
Fantastic experience: Tried out for the first time today really nice gym great atmosphere. Plenty of good equipment. Will definitely go again .
Negative experience: Payed for a yearly membership to come out monthly, asked if there’s anyway to cancel the membership sooner and got told no. I then requested that at the end of the membership that no more payments would come out. Apparently there’s a massive lack of communication between the staff and management team because no action was perused onto my account and they’d continued to charge me since November. On top of that when I asked for a refund they said they can do it and back date it no issues. So I was happy for it to be cancelled and a refund back to November to come in. Know and behold I’m refunded one months worth and when I just called up to ask about it they said because I never wrote a cancellation form I wasn’t eligible to the full refund. Not only that but the manager began to tell me about the discussion I had with his team member who issued the refund and tried to tell me how the conversation went. When actually I was told a full refund dated back to November would be issued. Very bad customer service and overall just rude coming from the manager.
Fantastic experience: Big and spacious plenty of weight plates , I go to one and no where as much weighted plates , very clean
Fantastic experience: Very good. Friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: Joined 2 months ago staff really friendly all upto date equipment.cleaned regularly by staff and its open 24 hrs really happy doesn't matter what lvl your fitness is all are welcomed old young middle aged

Fantastic experience: Propably best gym in town. It's definitely a very good gym 24/7 open, nice staff.
Negative experience: Dirty place dirty toilets and staff is not helpful at all don't clean equipments regularly.
Negative experience: Warning@, be careful people who have signed one year Agreement its not actually one year its Agreement for life which means it will continue even after end date of and you have to give them advance one month written notice to end the Agreement even after end date has passed. And they will keep deducting money from your bank till your death.
Fantastic experience: Anytime Fitness is the gym to go to. The facilities, staff and pricing are all amazing. Anytime fitness have always made me feel incredibly welcomed and comfortable. They are not pushy and understand your goals. I highly recommend.
Thanks for the great review Thomas!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym with a wide range of equipment, staff were extremely helpful! Shout out to MP for creating a very welcoming atmosphere.
Thank you Samuel!
Negative experience: Terrible experience with customer service. Initially contacted them about cancelling the membership AFTER the commitment end date, received no answer and kept being charged despite contacting them multiple times for months. A nightmare. Decent small gym but avoid please.

Hi Alison, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5 star review, it's greatly appreciated. It's rewarding to know that our rigorous cleaning schedule is getting noticed by our members.
Negative experience: I would rate lower if I could. Arranged to have a look round I thought it would be an induction but they said to give it a try before I paid. Went for my first session. Boy in office didnt come out after someone let me in. I knocked on window and said I was there for a trial without even opening the door he waved me in. I said I dont know what to do he shouted whatever I wanted. I used the treadmill without instruction went back to office he know had 3 girls in their with him all wearing coats so not using gym. I tapped on window and said again I dont know what to use again he said anything.....so I used a bike. Then left I have internal and external health problems but could have been really dangerous.
Hi Kathy, I'm very disappointed to hear about your bad experience with AF Paignton. We would greatly appreciate the opportunity to discuss this further with you. Please get in touch by emailing [email protected] and we will do our very best to assist you.
Negative experience: Absolutely appalling service by the staff who can't handle simple task. "Small prints" on the contract are changing all the time and customer is treated poorly. Trying to cancel membership since November and still getting nowhere! Very frustrating.
Hi Weronika, I'm sorry to hear about your bad experience with AF Paignton. The contract is signed upon joining and stored digitally, and therefore it is impossible for us to change the terms and conditioned outlined in the document. We would greatly appreciate the opportunity to discuss this with you further. Please get in touch by emailing [email protected] and we will do our very best to assist you.
Fantastic experience: I joined this gym abput a month ago and i go every night not bad for a 63year old guy and I cannot praise the staff enough for their friendliness and support and the place is always absolutely clean keep up the good work guys you all deserve the utmost credit and respect Derrick
Hi Derrick, Thank you so much for your kind review. Keep up the consistency! Well done!
Fantastic experience: Fabulous place full of good clean equipment the staff and clients always willing to help or advice if you want it a very clean tidy place lovely and bright highly recommend anyone coming for a training session
Thanks Neil! See you in club!
Negative experience: All the gear... But Gyms situated in a great location and they have amazing equipment. But I'm sorry to say I'd rather (and have) go elsewhere. First impressions of the gym were great until one too many things quickly changed my mind. Firstly a private meeting with a member of the team, who spent the entire time speaking about themselves, not something you should expect when you're the customer. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend them personally. Secondly, I had a personal item stolen from the gym. When I reported this, I had to further ask for the staff to review CCTV, to which they responded saying they could not see it and that I should "appreciate that the CCTV security are looking out for non members... not misplaced" belongings. This suggests to me that Anytime are more concerned about profit margins than the security the of thier customers. To summarise, the gym which was opened by inexperienced staff had all the gear but absolutely no idea in customer services, 1 star for the equipment.
Angelo, Thanks for the review. I’m very disappointed to be made aware of your dissatisfactory experience. Please contact us on the details provided and we discuss this further. Noah Wright Manager Anytime Fitness Paignton 01803 500247 [email protected]
Fantastic experience: Getting crowded
Hi Tracy, Thank you very much for leaving us a 5 star review. If you're concerned about the gym getting overly crowded, please speak to a member of the team and we will gladly show you the systems we have in place to ensure our members can continue to exercise in a safe and socially distanced environment.
Positive experience: This gym is interesting. It provides you all the equipment you need, private changing rooms / showers. The interesting part is that membership comes with a keyfob, which allows you entrance to the building at any time. So your schedule is no longer an excuse to not go to the gym. After a month of membership you gain access to all of the anytime fitness venues in the world.
Hi Serissa, Thank you very much for the fantastic review, it's greatly appreciated! If there is anything we can do to improve, please don't hesitate to speak to a member of the team and we will do our very best to assist you.
Negative experience: can never reach any staff and changing rooms are generally pretty dirty also
Hi All-In-All Flooring Accessories, Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, our staffed hours have been reduced for the moment. If you have any questions, please email [email protected] and a member of staff will be in touch as soon as possible.
Fantastic experience: I'm still struggling, but I'm getting there!
Hi Hilary, Thank you very much for the 5 star review!
Fantastic experience: Awesome and very cleAn
Hi Agnes, Thank you for the great review!
Negative experience: The equipment is good and the gym is big but the thing that let's it down is the impossibility to contact any member of staff. I have called the main gym multiple times from when they are open till the time they are closed and nothing. I have also gone down to the gym to speak with someone and nobody has been there Another thing is there key fob system. At least 50% of the time mine has not worked since I have started at the gym.
Hi Tyler, do you have an email address so we can discuss this further?
Positive experience: Needs attention to services
Hi Tea, Please email paignton.manager@anytimefitness and we can discuss this further. Kind Regards Noah Wright Club Manager Anytime Fitness Paignton

Thank you for the great review Pat. I’m glad to hear you had a positive experience as a first time gym user and we look forward to seeing you more in club!
Negative experience: Impossible to call and speak to someone. Upon going in to have a look around and requesting some info its clear to see the staff are more interested in their mobiles or friends than potential customers. Did not like the vibe at all.
Hi R.K, Apologies on behalf of the club for our poor customer service. This is extremely out of character. Could I kindly as you to email me privately on [email protected] and we can discuss this matter further. Yours In Health & Fitness Noah Wright Club Manager Anytime Fitness Paignton
Negative experience: Park at your own risk at this Gym, a number of members are being fined multiple times due to the Gym employing the notorious ParkingEye to manage the car park. If you google ParkingEye you will see some true horror stories.
Hi Ryan, I am very sorry to hear about your bad experience at the club. The system has now been changed to an open 2 hour policy, so all the parking issues have been resolved. We hope to see you in the club soon! Yours In Health & Fitness Noah Wright Club Manager Anytime Fitness Paignton
