I've been contemplating joining the local gym by my home in Southern California, though the membership team there has been a bit spotty/contradictory in their communication. I was quoted that benefits, when paying with an American Express Platinum card, are; discount initiation fee (more than half off), a 50-minute spa service, and 4 personal training sessions.

Has anyone had luck getting the initiation fee waived, and still keeping the Amex benefits? If so, what are you guys (if you don't mind me asking) paying in terms of monthly fee/and for what type of membership?


Thanks in advance!

You can see my post above. Those prices were for 8/31. No success in the fee waiver, but they did throw in a "guided workout" which was akin to an extra personal training session, maybe you can go for that. If you do end up joining, I'd love to be your referral (if you don't have one already); if you're interested, I'll PM my details.
