Great Instructors, but bad business people.
- - Called many people in various locations, but no help.
- - I've emailed many, including big bosses, with no response.
- - I'm being blown off for $250.
I hope all works out for you & your situation. Im dealing with the same issues.
Ive called multiple people (different locations & states), but no help. Ive even emailed a lot of folks (including big bosses), & yet.. NOTHING!
Just because Im being blown off, ignored, & sidelined for $250.. I do hope & pray you get all of your money back, & sooner than later..
After all.. it isnt as if they dont have the money to repay us ( especially for the prices of their fees & merchandise)..
But, its actually our money they need to be repaying, refunding to us!!.. I wont speak bad of them, but I also wont be referring anyone else to them!!

Verified ReviewerEveryone Don’t Go By The Same Policy!
- - Paid $500 for a six-week challenge; win = refund, else 50% forfeited.
- - Unmet goal; remaining $250 went to a membership.
- - Money was forfeited; manager says it’s gone.
I took the six week challenge in the beginning of 2021. I was told to put down a $500 deposit for the challenge.
It was explained to me. If, I win the challenge, it will be refunded back to me, but if not. Ill loose half of my money. Well, at the end of the six weeks.
I was short of the goal. My then options were to get the remaining half of the money refunded back into my account, or it can go towards a membership. I selected the membership. Unfortunately, my health took a turn for the worst, & I wasn't able to make it.
Thinking, my money was safe with them. I allowed it to stay there. Things are still going the wrong way. So, I decided to just get my $250 back.
To my surprise. I'm told, my money was forfeited, & I can not get anything back, & the *New* manager is sorry for the miscommunication & confusion! She said, due to the fact. That nothing was done with the money.
It's just gone! WHAT! If nothing was done with it. Shouldn't it still be available for me?..
I was so happy with this place. I bought a punching bag from them for $250. If I knew my money was going to be stole from me. I wouldve just used the remaining $250 from the challenge for the bag.
But, I actually thought my money was safe where it at the time. Now, all I have are regrets!
- Excellent instructors great atmosphere wonderful people
- What is explained varies by head staff
Preferred solution: The money that is owed to me.
User's recommendation: Don’t trust word of mouth. What is said, will most likely be what is different in the contract!

Fort Worth location Closing
- - I joined the Fort Worth six week challenge and loved classes.
- - The location closed before I finished.
- - I was on track to get $399 back; refunds pending.
I joined the six week challenge at the Fort Worth location. I loved the classes and instructors.
However, they closed before my challenge was over. I was on track to earn my $399 back by meeting my goals. I have been requesting information on a refund and the owner has still not really responded except that it was under consideration a few weeks ago. I do not know how to proceed from here because all I have is the email address that really gets me nowhere.
I cannot join another gym until I get my money back that I am rightfully owed. Any help contacting Kevin Smith the owner would be appreciated.
I have been very patient and trying to work it out with him but three weeks without much response is too long. As a small business owner I know this is not proper customer service or communication.
Bunch of Frauds
- - Free challenge was promoted but $500 charged with a 6wk refund promise.
- - If not finished, the $500 could become a monthly membership; no follow-up.
They just blatantly ignore my emails or refund request or don't give me the reason why they are holding my money.
KickHouse Chantilly is a fraud company in 4090 Airline Pkwy Suite k, Chantilly, VA 20151.Never join this place listening to ont fall for their baitDDThey advertised that its a free challenge they are doing but when I showed up they said that I have to pay 500 $ and if I complete my challenge after 6 weeks ,I will get my money back.And if I dont complete my challenge they will put my money towards monthly membership.(This last line is not written in the contract but they said thats a special offer) .I will be assigned an accountability coach,a diet chart,meal plans etc. I mentioned them I stay far so I am not sure if I can continue long term membership.They mentioned You will get your money back after 6 weeks.I was curious and asked them how to they make profit.They said we are a new company so we want social media exposure o you check in put few hashtags every class you do and people love the service here and they chose to stay.so win win for them. After I swiped my credit card,BOOM.No one cares about anything,They didnt even check if I finished the challenge or not.
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Don't fall for this trap.Don't join this gym.

After the phone conversation with the new Kickhouse manager. I received an email with a partial receipt from Kickhouse.
Considering, it only shows the first $250. That was deducted from my account, & not the other transactions. I say it’s a partial receipt! Now, I feel like this new manager is doing to much, but at the same time..
Don’t exactly know what she is doing. This a turning the positive way I feel for Kickhouse Creve Coeur in the opposite direction !!
