PureGym monthly membership

✓ Legitimate charge

PUREGYM on your bank statement is your monthly membership fee for PureGym — the UK's largest gym chain with over 300 locations nationwide. PureGym is a no-frills, low-cost gym that operates on a flexible, no-contract basis, meaning you can cancel anytime.

PureGym charges are taken on the same date each month (usually around the date you originally signed up, or the 1st of the month depending on when you joined). The standard membership cost varies by location — city centre gyms are typically more expensive than suburban ones. You may also see a slightly different amount if you have a Plus or Premium membership tier.

If you signed up for a day pass or a short-term trial through the PureGym app, you may see a one-off charge rather than a recurring one. The charge description on your statement is typically just PUREGYM followed by the location name.

Questions about PureGym charges

Can I get a refund on a PureGym charge?
PureGym's standard policy doesn't offer refunds on membership fees already charged. If you forgot to cancel and were charged for a month you didn't intend to pay, you can try contacting PureGym customer support — they may offer a goodwill refund if you haven't used the gym that month. If the charge was genuinely fraudulent (you didn't sign up), contact your bank.
I cancelled PureGym but was still charged — what do I do?
If you believe you cancelled your membership correctly but were still charged, log into your PureGym account and verify the cancellation date. Cancellations must be submitted before the 28th to avoid the next month's charge. If the charge occurred after a valid cancellation, contact PureGym support with your cancellation confirmation and request a refund.
Why did my PureGym charge increase?
PureGym may increase membership prices periodically. They are required to notify members of price changes in advance. Check your email for a price change notification from PureGym. If you weren't notified, contact PureGym support to query the change.
