Q. Can I purchase an F45 Dickson Foundation Membership (At PRESALE or after) and a 28 Day Kickstarter?
No, memberships and trials cannot be used in conjunction with each other. You may purchase a 28 Day Kickstarter and then buy a membership package but there is no guarantee that a Foundation Membership will still be available for sale.
Q. If I buy a membership to Dickson pre-sales and after opening and then want to change to Braddon only, what are the conditions to this?
Foundation Memberships are only available at F45 Dickson. If you choose to move to F45 Braddon you will be given the membership options available at that studio. Rates and memberships are not transferable between studios and cancellations fees as per your agreement will apply.
Q. If I buy an F45 Dickson Foundation Membership and stay for 12 months, what rate will I pay thereafter.
F45 rewards Foundation Members with a lifetime discount and your rate will remain the same for the duration of your time at F45 Dickson. Cancelling a Foundation Membership will forfeit a member being able to access that rate again.
Q. I’ve bought an F45 Dickson Foundation Membership but I also want to now access F45 Braddon, can I do this?
Yes there is a small upgrade offer to access, after your first three months at F45 Dickson. If you would like to access F45 Braddon immediately, you will need to join on a 3, 6 or 12 month or No-lock in membership at F45 Dickson from the outset, not a Foundation Membership.
