November 12, 20XX To American Boxing: This letter has been mailed more than 30 days before my billing date of December 15. Please freeze my account for December as I am in the Navy and being deployed for X months.
Attached is a letter from my commanding officer on US Government letterhead signed and dated confirming my deployment for the dates of my freeze.

Student may place Enrollment on hold for an unlimited period at no charge if by a medical doctor’s written opinion that said Student is physically unable to use the facilities in any capacity. Such a hold is effective only if received by ABF within 30 days of the doctor’s dated opinion. For example: You receive a doctors note in July permitting a 4 week freeze, however, you provide the letter to ABF in September, October or any other month outside of the 30 day time frame in which the doctors letter was intended to be used. The doctor must give ABF in writing the facets or components of exercise that Student is unable to perform so ABF has the option to provide a substitute or alternative routine for Student. The doctor must give ABF in writing a date that the Student may resume exercising. ABF will recommence billing at that time.
Military may place their Enrollment on hold for an unlimited duration with a signed copy of military orders or letter from their commanding officer stating a departure and return date.
Student may for any reason place their Enrollment on hold for up to two months during any 12 month period. A charge of $25 per month will apply at the time of requesting a Enrollment hold.

Example of FREE Membership Freeze Letter
You may cancel this Agreement under the following conditions: By reason and proof of death or disability, the buyer and/or his/her estate will be relieved from the obligation of making payments for services other than those prior to death or the onset of disability, and that if he or she has prepaid any sum for lessons or services, as much of that sum as is allocatable to the lessons or services he or she has not taken will promptly refunded to him or her or his or her representative. Disability means a condition that precludes the buyer from physically using the facilities in any capacity, and that is verified by a medical doctor with a full understanding of all ABF services. Until you have given us written notice verified by a medical doctor, Enrollment obligations will continue. Example of a Membership Cancellation Letter: November 12, 20XX To American Boxing: Unfortunately I need to early cancel my membership. (Feel Free to comment on your training experience with American Boxing here…we appreciate the input!) I completed X months and on my next bill I will have completed X months.
This notice has been mailed more than 30 days in advance of my final billing (per the 30 days notification provision) and therefore for the past X months I owe a balance of $XXX for dues since I was not able to complete my original membership term. (please note, whether dropped off or mailed, a date stamp is put on the letter…please do not back date letter, it is embarrassing for everyone) I also received free gear but have lost my receipt so I am unaware of the retail value of the equipment. If you could call me and let me know the balance I would appreciate it. (This would initiate a $50 administration fee) Thanks in advance, Joe Smith 858-555-1212
• You have completed your Enrollment term and/or have a $0 account balance, and give ABF a 30 day written notice to cancel.
• On cancellation, under this and all other sections, laws or rulings current or in the future, the student is responsible for the pro rata share of services used. On the first day of this agreement and thereafter on each billing cycle, the entire months dues are considered to have been earned for that following month by ABF immediately at the time of payment processing.
If contract is cancelled prior to the completion of Enrollment Term, student will pay pro rata per class fees for classes used on a $25 per class basis or the month-to-month membership rate based on membership option selected by student, whichever is greater. For example: If a student committed to pay $75/month for 1 year of Boxing classes yet the student chooses to cancel his contract after 2 months for any reason at all, if the month to month rate for Boxing was $100/month***, then, for the past 2 months, that student would owe a pro rata share of $25 more per month for a total of $50 owed for previous membership dues owed as if a discount was never given. If the student does not complete his 3, 6 or 12 month agreement term, he/she should not and does not receive the 3, 6 or 12 month discounted rate.
• If Enrollment agreement is cancelled under any provision without having completed the agreed upon term, you, the buyer will be required to pay an early termination fee of $50-$100 based on California state law, pay your last month’s dues (per the 30 days notification provision), and will also be responsible to pay for any discounts, enrollment fees, house charges, equipment, merchandise and/or service that were not charged at time of Enrollment and possibly given to you as incentive to enroll for the membership enrollment duration you have selected.
• In the event buyer/Student requests that ABF calculate and/or provide a balance due at time of cancellation, buyer/Student will be subject to an $50 administration fee in addition to all other fees. (This amount calculation is buyer/Student responsibility and is based on information already in buyer/Students possession via students own banking and receipts, their Enrollment which can be seen by logging into their ABF account via Member Login at www.americanboxing.net and criteria available here in ABF Terms of Service)
• If you prepaid for an Enrollment term and received any discounts, equipment, merchandise and/or service that were not charged at time of Enrollment signing and possibly given to you as incentive to you enrolling for the Enrollment duration you have selected, you will pay for those discounts at time of cancellation by way of a reduction in the refund amount given.
• Cancellations will not be accepted until all past due balances and costs associated with early termination are paid in full.
• There will be a $50 administrative processing fee added to all cancellations that did not complete the agreed upon initial contract term, including 5 day cancels.
Cancellation by email, fax, word-of-mouth, certified mail or any other method outside of a legible physical cancellation letter hand delivered or sent standard mail, signed by Student, with the exceptions being death or disability will not be accepted.** Unfortunately certified mail is not accepted due to the fact that some instructors may be sub-contractors and not authorized to sign for certified mail.
You may call after 3-5 days of sending notice during office hours and confirm your letter has been received, we will be happy to inform you.

1542. Certain claims not affected by general release. A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in creditor’s favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected creditor’s settlement with the debtor.
Student acknowledges that he/she is Enrolling and therefore purchasing a Membership for usage at the ABF’s facilities, not for any single program type, location, or offering. Furthermore, there is no assurance that now current group exercise classes, their times, and specific instructors will continue to be offered in the future. ABF reserves the right to use Student photography/video taken in ABF in their marketing material. Any failure to pay Student’s monthly dues by its due date will terminate Student’s right to use ABF and make any Unpaid Balance, plus late fees for all future periods, to become immediately due and payable. The failure to demand a late fee on any one installment will not be a waiver of ABF’s right to collect on including attorney’s fees and collection agency fees. Failure to use the facilities of ABF does not relieve Student of Student’s /Co-Signer’s obligation to pay all installments required hereunder. This agreement may be assigned by ABF without notice to Student.
