Is Idea a scam? I would take that star away if zero had been an option. An unidentified charge for $106 appeared on my 91 year old mother's credit card. I dialed the number on the statement and got Idea. Left many messages trying to identify what the charge was for with no response. One message mentioned an email address, so I sent an exploratory email asking what the charge was (my mom has dimentia and has no clue). Got a response asking me to send a bank statement. Seems like a scam. Still no explanation. I will be contesting the charge on behalf of my mother.

I registered for the early pricing last… I regustered for the early pricing last May,2022 and i needed to cancel it due to important stuff at work. I have inform then and told me that the refund will be process 5-10 days. Its been 15 days passed and still did not able to hear anything form them. I tried to call and call and call. A sore for my ears to wait for them to pick up the phone. My fingers is sore pressing the contact number. I also sent an email to follow up but no one reply. Will you please fix your customer service.

I have no idea what IDEA does but I had… I have no idea what IDEA does but I had a random $380 charge in my debit card. Not okay. Working on fixing it. Looks like other people have had this issue.

Wishing that your conferences were … Wishing that your conferences were smaller, more often, more personable. Large isn’t always better. Ex:Pilates, yoga, personal training, nutrition etc.

IDEA provides great conferences and … IDEA provides great conferences and tools for trainers. However, I feel the organization is just beginning to embrace the importance of inclusiveness and body positivity. The cover article in the February 2018 issue of Fitness Journal is a call for change, which shows that good intentions are there; but the representative artwork and imagery focus on white women in a higher weight range. Body image is an issue for people of all sizes, not just those of higher weight. Food is demonized in the image of an articulated mannequin with a glazed donut around its middle, the message being that body size is a reflection of what is eaten, which we know to be untrue. Clearly, the editors have a long way to go toward understanding the deeper meaning and implications of body image and body positivity, for trainers and clients alike.
