I’m currently with FF Tampines Branch, TF just open a new brance here as well and I went up to take a look at it last weekend. True enough its bigger, more machines and most important lesser crowd. Probably because its new but FF is definitley over crowded now, its good to have another gym to share the demand and I’m seriously reconsidering about switching club after reading so much about the negative side about TF.

True Fitness:
(-) Has more Levers (machines) compare to Fitness First
(-) Has less dumbbells and no bench at all.
(-) Towels are not good, look quite worn-out and some of them have stains.
(-) Shower rooms smell weird. Changing room is less clean compare to FF.
(-) Lockers are so small.
(-) Less luxury furnitures and machines compare to FF

(+) Less crowded compare to FF
(+) Has more space compare to FF
(+) Has coffee machine!
(+) Has more cardio machines variety e.g.: stair-climbing machine

TF changed the locker system. Now all the members have to bring their own padlocks to gym. If they forget, they have 2 options: Bring their bags into gym n shower OR purchase a padlock for $5. It’s so inconvenient and the staff kept saying that TF upgraded the changing room for the members. The towels are always dirty and sometimes I can even see (blood?) stain on the towels. The shower rooms are forever dirty. So please think twice before signing up. Even if you are not happy with the service, you wont be able to terminate the contract.

Why sign up for any gym packages or spa packages and pay upfront fees when you know they can close anytime and you have no recourse for a refund nor any protection by CASE? when nobody falls for such tricks, they will have to come up with a better fairer business model.

People should also take into consideration the business ethics of both management. Looking at how True Group treats its True Spa members, its definitely Fitness First for me. Consumers should remember.. if you are looking for value and take the risk of paying upfront fees for 2 or more years, not even CASE can save you if True Fitness closes down before you can complete your contract.

@kbl, S$50+ is monthly but you must pay upfront for about 30 months (not sure what’s the latest package now).

Glad you find it useful. Yes, rental of those items come included in your member fee.
