基本逻辑:通过入会再取消的方式白嫖300.（历史验证不会被cb）
- 成功
1. 先在 Amex 里 enroll Equinox benefit
登录 Amex 账户 → Benefits → 找到 Equinox credit → enroll。必须先 enroll 再消费，否则不会触发 credit。
2. 在 Equinox 官网登记信息并选一个感兴趣的 club
填完表单选好 home club 之后，club 的销售（membership advisor）基本一定会主动打电话或发邮件联系你。
3. 询问短期 / 月度会员（month-to-month）的价格
然后你咨询短期会员的费用。我习惯用学生的身份去问费用，因为学生一个月的费用在300多一点，（即使失败了自己损失也不大。）然后销售会报价，有些销售为让你证明学生，有些不会。
4. 确认付费链接是正常的 monthly dues
当销售告诉你一个月价格的费用后，以我为例，LA某equinox一个月354，然后他发了我付费链接。（全程邮件沟通）这个费用100% amex是可以报销的-正经会员费。重点：付费链接里可以看一下合同描述，里面明确写着5个工作日内可以申请取消，不同州不同规则，不过一般都有至少三天的时间可以取消。
5. 付款前一定要看合同的 cancellation clause
每份 Equinox membership agreement 都有 Section 3.1 Initial Rights of Cancellation，规定了签约后一段时间内可以无罚款取消、按 pro-rata 退款。各州规则不同，举几个例子：
-
加州：签约后 5 个工作日内（不含周日和节假日），按合同总金额阶梯式延长（$1,500–$2,000 → 20 天；$2,001–$2,500 → 30 天；$2,501+ → 45 天）
-
其他州的 cooling-off 规则可参考 membership agreement 原文
这是法律和合同赋予你的消费者权利，不是漏洞。
6. 协商 activation date（开始日期）
签约时可以和销售协商 membership start date，比如 5/23 付款但要求 5/27 才激活。这给了你几天缓冲期来真正做决定。
另一个细节：理论上如果会员激活了一两天，你得不到全额退款（某些人狂喜，根据西南大法等人认为消费金额和退款金额不一致才稳）
7. Cancel 的正确方式
按合同 Section 3.4 走，加州合同通常是：
-
邮件发到合同里指定的取消邮箱（加州是
[email protected]，通用是[email protected]） -
必须从 on-file 的邮箱发出
-
邮件包含：全名、membership ID、联系方式
-
我建议需要联系对接你的销售，他通常会联系manager取消
按合同规定，Equinox 会在 10 天内退款到原支付方式。
8.分享一个退款理由：
这个就看你脸皮厚不厚了，一个可能的理由是你可以问他我在你这里买的membership是不是可以去B club,销售会说不行。
注意短期会员是不能去其他club的，所以名正言顺地你可以要求取消会员。
升级版本：网上自己操作直接买12个月的，可以直接付款。不过记得看term，以及记得在第一两个工作日后发邮件要求取消membership
附上加州的合同部分原文：3.CANCELLATION RIGHTS
3.1INITIAL RIGHTS OF CANCELLATION: You may cancel this Agreement without any penalty or further obligation prior to midnight on the fifth (5th) business day of your Home Club after the date of this Agreement (excluding Sundays and holidays). In addition:
(1)If the total Membership Dues for your Initial Period, together with any initiation fee you paid, is between $1,500 and $2,000, you may cancel this Agreement within twenty (20) days after the date this Agreement is executed.
(2)If the total Membership Dues for your Initial Period, together with any initiation fee you paid, is between $2,001 and $2,500, you may cancel this Agreement within thirty (30) days after the date this Agreement is executed.
(3)If the total Membership Dues for your Initial Period, together with any initiation fee you paid, is between $2,501 or more, you may cancel this Agreement within forty-five (45) days after the date this Agreement is executed.
To exercise either of the cancellation rights under this Section 3.1, you must notify Equinox in accordance with Section 3.4 below. Notice should be accompanied by a copy of your Agreement, as well as any membership cards or fobs or other membership documentation given to you by Equinox. Within ten (10) days after Equinox receives notice of such cancellation, it will refund all amounts previously paid under this Agreement to the original method of payment, less an amount reflective of the services received or available for use by you, based upon a pro-rata calculation over the term of the Initial Period.
3.2ADDITIONAL RIGHTS OF CANCELLATION: You may also cancel your Membership and this Agreement, at any time during or after the Initial Period, for any of the following reasons:
(1)If you are no longer able to receive the services as a result of a condition that precludes you from physically using the facilities, as evidenced by a signed letter from your physician or other reasonable proof of your disability, which such evidence we may then verify;
(2)If you die, as evidenced by a death certificate or other reasonable confirmation of death provided by your estate;
(3)If you move more than twenty-five (25) miles from any comparable Club operated by Equinox, as evidenced by reasonable proof of your new residency; or
(4)If your Home Club eliminates or substantially reduces the scope of its facilities available to you upon execution of this Agreement (as such facilities described in Section 1.11 of this Agreement or in any advertisement relating to your Home Club or a written offer from Equinox), except that this cancellation right does not apply if your Home Club, after giving reasonable notice to you, temporarily takes facilities out of operation for reasonable repairs, modifications, substitutions or improvements or if your Home Club makes reasonable changes to the type or quantity of classes or equipment it offers.
You or your estate may exercise these rights to cancel your Membership and this Agreement by notifying Equinox in accordance with Section 3.4 below. Promptly after Equinox receives notice of such cancellation, you or your estate will be relieved of your obligation to pay for services other than those received or made available for use and Equinox will refund, using the Payment Information on-file, any prepaid unused Membership Dues and any prepaid unused Ancillary Charges, based upon a pro-rata calculation over the term of this Agreement. If this Agreement is cancelled under this Section 3.2 during the Initial Period, you will also receive a pro-rata portion of any initiation fee you paid. If you cancel under Section 3.2(3) because you have moved, Equinox reserves the right to charge you its then-current processing fee (not to exceed $100 if you cancel during the first six (6) months of your Initial Period or $50 if you cancel thereafter).
@baimi @Gpg12 两个老哥很懂 
不过关于这个取消的条款确实写在合同里，到时候不需要拿法律威胁不退款什么的，销售都懂应该
