Don't Do CECs Through Idea Health & fitness If you're in the fitness field, you are required to do CECs. Avoid IDEA Health & Fitness Association's CEC program. Good luck trying to contact the organization. It takes 4 weeks via email. You are sent automatically to voicemail when trying to cancel. DO NOT DO CECs through Idea Health & Fitness.

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.

This company is totally corrupt This company is totally corrupt. I don’t know when it happened but…read all the other reviews. Same thing happened to me. I even went one step further and turned off my auto renewal. They billed me anyways. I called immediately and they told me NO refund. I will go out of my way to let everyone know. Total scam.

I have been an IDEA member for over 30 … I have been an IDEA member for over 30 years, and I lost $784 to this "non-profit" organization as I did not use my open credit within the IDEA defined timeframe. To avoid future surprised IDEA clients/members, I’d suggest that in the future, IDEA make it very clear as to the timeline one has to spend any open credit and that if said credit is not used, the money is forfeited to IDEA (with no acknowledgment for one's income taxes). As a result, I have cancelled my group fitness, personal trainer, and business memberships, as I do not run my own business in this manner.
