Is there a massive irony in calling yourself Derrimut 24/7 and reducing over half your network to a model which is closed for a good portion of the day? Sure.

Will you have broken equipment, dirty toilets and over crowding between 5-7am and 4-7pm? Sure.

Will they extend this special or offer an even better one in a few months? Absolutely.

But for $188 with NO ESTABLISHMENT FEE (52c a day) if you have a location that’s still 24/7 access or moving to a key fob model this isn’t bad and I believe their best promo ever?

    They have locations that close?

        Only a matter of time. Also forums indicating a lot of "delays"/handballing around refund requests after they had the $199 deal (just before stripping 24/7 from gyms).

      Why do you think they'll close down? They have these sales every year. ATL was $149 last year

        ATL was actually $99 during the lockdowns 3-4~ years ago while the gyms were closed, in Victoria at least with the proviso of the membership not starting until the gyms opened.

      • bcYield on 18/04/2025 - 21:13

        Why? It happened to me. This deal has no admin fee.

        they closed the only one in qld, and were doing one of these 'specials' right up to the close. no notice or anything

    • Trying2SaveABuck on 18/04/2025 - 18:12

      Thr ATL was $99 back on the day

      However it was legit only 1 gym in Derrimut

  • zfind on 18/04/2025 - 17:56

    Don’t you guys have Revo yet? I thought they were in SA now. ≈$10 a week, clean, new equipment, usually big and true 24/7 access. Actually a revelation amongst shitty predatory 24/7 gyms like Anytime and Goodlife. Snap wasn’t terrible.

    • Macbig on 18/04/2025 - 18:46

      Revo getting too busy for their space even at early times. Ppl don't seem to be working and just hang about doom scrolling on their phones. Equipment is pretty average, not alot of choices.

      • zfind on 18/04/2025 - 20:23

        Same in WA as their popularity exploded but still easily the best option. Smaller ones are at times too jammed to get a good routine in but the supersize one I go to has for example five benches and five pulley stations so it’s (almost) never too bad.

    • BIGMAV on 18/04/2025 - 19:18

      Plenty of revos in SA. I switched from Derrimuts. Derrimuts have a lot better equipment. Revo layout is nicer as most are well spaced and less than a year old. Miss the protein bar. Toilets equally as feral. Overall I would gladly move back to Derrimuts. A few good ones in my area.

      People will say the business is going under, that it's closing down, going into liquidation or administration… blah blah, all the usual nonsense. Every time there's a cheap deal advertised, the same types show up with their negativity. Now it's started on Reddit too. The same people post negative comments over there, then come back here, refer to their own Reddit comments, and act like it's proof the place is going under.

      Yeah, I agree, some of them are seriously bitter / busy. Especially those who seem afraid of crowds. These are the people who prefer high-end gyms, paying 3 or 4 times more than the deal price. Some of them clearly panic in public and might benefit from something to help with social anxiety or even agoraphobia.

      They're still going strong, with even more branches now than they had back then.

  • Dealr on 18/04/2025 - 17:59

    Genuine questions over longevity of the gym.

    • Sales and offers are becoming more desperate and frequent. Yes I know there has been a track record of this.
    • hours changed from 24/7 to limited hours at certain locations with minimal notice. Following out cry, they promised 24/7 fobs within weeks, now pushing a couple of months with no sign of them.
    • as mentioned, equipment left broken.

    Something to be cautious of. Otherwise, I don't mind the gyms. This is coming from someone who is paid up until mid 2026.

    • vinni9284 on 18/04/2025 - 18:03

      The question is, are you really going to go broke over $188 if they close?

      • Dealr on 18/04/2025 - 18:08

        Some people it would be more important than others. Personally, I was happy to take the risk on a top up knowing it may be money down the drain.

        • vinni9284 on 18/04/2025 - 18:12
          -5

          If that's the case then i would advise not to pay membership. Everything has a risk. Loss of $188 will not render people homeless. YMMV

  • AustriaBargain on 18/04/2025 - 18:25

    And you can pay with after pay, so even if you are broke there's no excuse and they never have your card details. Other than them being really busy during peak hours.

    In Port Melbourne they just opened a fancy af gym why would they do that if they were about to go under. But I guess rent can't be cheap there?

    I honestly suggest not going to this gym, the OP that mentioned all the faults are correct and it definitely is a "you get what you paid for".

    If you wanna have a consistent gym to go to, please check around your area for local gyms instead and pay a little extra.

      Yeah till they decide to cut all the services you signed up for. Fail to repair equipment. Impose insane carpark restrictions. Cut their open hours down for the 24 hour gym to staffed hours only, then fail to provide dates on fob system. Refuse to reply to emails and become uncontactable. Great buisness model.

    Been going for a year, lots of dribble about being closed down probably started by competitors that can't match this pricing….It is a gym that works on volume , simple economics the more people they can get by with smaller margins…. Ex percent of members go once , twice a week , others goes five days a week. I have a friend who hasn't been for a month…. This is how gyms work they don't expect everyone who signs up to attend often. I couldn't be happier with this gym lots of equipment, main issue is parking but manageable as I generally go off peak.
