Singapore consumer group urges prepayment safeguards after gym closures
Original: CASE calls for mandatory prepayment safeguards after S$3.82 million in losses linked to fitness closures
The Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) is calling for mandatory prepayment safeguards after S$3.82 million in losses were linked to fitness business closures in the country. Customers who paid upfront for memberships and packages have been left out of pocket, prompting demands for stronger protection against prepaid service providers shutting down.
Why now: Recent fitness chain closures have left consumers with significant prepaid losses, raising concern about weak protections.
