GBDon'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.

GBThis 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.

GBIdeaFit scams instructors and has… IdeaFit scams instructors and has horrible customer service. In 2021 my boss at my gym asked me to register for the online virtual(and useless) convention. What I didn't realize at the time was that it was an Auto-renewal. Shame on me I know but that is how they get their money.Flash forward to this year and I received an email confirming my $199 "order". Not only wouldn't the customer service person refund me or let me speak to their supervisor as it is against their policy. She also wouldn't remove me from the auto-renewal subscription. I had to do it myself.

GBI 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.
