I only signed up yesterday I was expecting a lot more for my €32 intial sign up - I felt I was missing something but obviously not after reading all these! - I thought when they said personalized plan - it meant an actual diet plan and not ur cals / macros that u can easily get on line for free. I’ll give it a month and see if not I’ll be cancelling my €8.99 a month direct debit via my bank!

It's a big fat con!

 

[Jossylovesmoss65]

Because he wants you to do what he does, and what he cares about is high protein and muscle building. It’s a control thing. You are more reliant on his way of doing things if you follow their plan and then you are locked in for longer, in my opinion.

Yes there is a member on there in the process of bulking up, i think shes well and truly sucked in by his bullshit! Looks horrendous in my humble opinion!!

 

[Twinkle Toes 11]

I just can't get over their whole set up. They do need taking down. Either way it's costing you money to cancel you can't win if you've deleted their app and are not consuming their content then surely they can't pursue it! They rely on MFP so it's not even totally their app or property. Wankers.

Iv deleted the app and I’m not on any of their Facebook pages
Next email I get the response will be “f*ck off!!”

Have skim read this as Im on my way out but will come back and read properly later.
I got suckered in to this bull shit in January, genuinely thought it would help me gain some sort of fitness.
Paid my money, downloaded the app, tried and tried and tried to get in the facebook group to access the support over the course of 3 months and they NEVER accepted me. I put in all the details they wanted, answered the questions but nothing. And because of the shitty 'you have to pay for a year' I am still paying £6.99 for a crappy app that relies on MFP.
Has anybody had any luck in cancelling the direct debit and not being penalised. If not, is it a simple case of I can cancel next January and hear nothing more from them?

The irony is, that he encourages the binge restrict cycle with his “diet/bulk” process. All these people forcing down cereal and crumpets to make sure they ‘bulk’ and build ‘lean muscle’ it’s crazy. I literally panicked thinking I don’t know how to eat anymore and I’ve never been overweight! I used to just eat intuitively and was bloody FINE. I’m finding my way back to it his week.

as for the staff, plenty of affiliates are treated like shit apparently, but everyone is too scared to speak up.


I have just joined an intuitive eating group on Facebook (which is free) to see what sort of advice is offered there.

There’s a whole video here from an ex affiliate revealing what he’s like to work with:

Wow, just watched that video - I can't imagine my boss playing videos of people who've left as a (very thinly veiled) warning to everyone still there - it must be like walking round on eggshells.

 

[Jossylovesmoss65]

Yeah he posted a video with a woman he’d drawn in the back ground with a “big hairy minge” drawn on it or something to that effect.

Pathetic puerile arsehole!

This sort of thing really annoys me - yes, you can get some healthy food cheap in this country but, like you say, not everyone has access to it, both for distance/transport reasons and situational reasons - I've lived in some horrendous rented properties, places without kitchens, places without fridges and freezers, even one dump without running water - I lived on crisps and the occasional piece of Dixie Chicken because, as much as I love a nice lentil curry with rice and a side of vegetables, it wasn't possible to make them or afford them.

I left TRH even more obsessed over food than before I started it - I'm semi calorie counting at the moment alongside the tattle weight loss thread but trying to get myself out of the binge-restrict-binge cycle so I'm taking breaks along the way to try and not get obsessive over it or get into the "I had an extra hundred calories, I'm such a failure, might as well eat a whole pack of digestives" mindset.

Something I am wondering though - I wonder what Richie is like as a boss, can you imagine getting your 6 month review from him?

If i remember rightly, he once said that he had £20 or something like that pinned on a notice board at work as he trusted everyone, can't imagine him being anything other than

Yeah he posted a video with a woman he’d drawn in the back ground with a “big hairy minge” drawn on it or something to that effect.

Hes so charming isnt he?..........NOT!!

 

[rememberwayne]

All his disciples agreed with him.....of course!

What is worrying in my opinion is seeing a lot of his followers/affiliates stick by him when they can surely see how he has treated people and the kind of person he is.

I honestly think if you showed these hardcore fans/affiliates of his a picture/video (somekind of proof) of him being the worst person possible, I think they would turn a blind eye and support him anyway.

 

[Jossylovesmoss65]

,

Uncanny isn’t it? I’d honestly rather eat a couple of hundred less calories a day than ridiculously step on the spot like I’m bursting for a pee!

Yeah im all for going for a walk, try to get active but bloody walkie talkies! Ffs!!

 

[ChubClubThug]

Thanks for the comments. He contacted them and it’s all sorted, appears they were very helpful!

I don’t think their method is to everyone’s taste, but the basic principle of course makes sense.

I do feel like I’m eating too many carbs though! Such a switch from previous ‘one piece of bread a day’ diet plans.

Not lost anything in the first week, but I don’t have much to lose so the margin for error is smaller and I went to Zizzi last night.

Really? Who did you contact Ashbourne or Team RH? Maybe it's because you were in the 14 day period?

 

[Jossylovesmoss65]

The free page and the group are so toxic - here's a few screenshots from a very delicate discussion about mental health in regards to weighing...

There were also multiple people mocking red, saying things such as that she doesn't want to weigh food because she's too lazy to stand up and go to the scales. Does Richie, patron saint of supporting women being trolled online step in? Does he hell as like!

He makes my blood boil!!!!

 

[irishjen]

So I cancelled ages ago, they gave tried to contact me twice, but I've blocked them, emails go to spam, but No more lately and wondering is it because I've an Irish bank ACC do they realize they haven't a hope?

 

[flibble123]

Newbie on this thread, what’s the tea with Munro fitness and Fitness RH??

So glad I read here, I was going to sign up this weekend to Fitness RH.

Consider yourself saved!!

 

[Raindancer74]

I get what your saying but most things like that you physically sign a contract
Iv not signed anything with team rh

I was a member a couple of years ago so things may have changed since then.
When I joined it was my understanding that you could pay for the year (which is what I did as it was 49.99 so cheaper than a 12 week sw pass) or pay 4.99 a month and cancel anytime. There was no contract when I was a member.

 

[PinkGin123]

Wouldn't trust him as far as i could throw him!!!

Fucking hell, he is like a child.

 

[flibble123]

I’ve contacted Ashbourne to end mine & they told me I’ve to pay the remaining 5 months before I can cancel

I’ve said I’m happy to do that to team rh but they are ignoring me. Should I contact ashbourne directly?

 

[GossBoss]

Really????
And, those dont look like kind eyes to me!!

Omg, does he honestly think these sort of comments inspire and motivate people

 

[Runs Like Phoebe]

I’ve worked out their modus operandi:

1. Think of an angry controversial statement that’s vaguely true or unprovable, due to inconsistent data collection
2. Attack a few people that argue against it on the post.
3. Allow the flying monkeys to attack people in the comments.
4. Sit back feeling superior over the fall out.

Sounds like alot of fitness influencers in general doesn't it!

 

[Twinkle Toes 11]

Where can I see it?? Good! Glad it's not just me then that sees how disgusting it all is, it's deplorable.

I just read it on Facebook

Very interesting read

 

[flibble123]

Im ashamed i got sucked in tbh. It wasnt a quick decision either ive been following on fb for 3yrs and liked whst they were saying. Im still gonna stay in as ive paid for the year and i am losing weight. Just taking everything said with a pinch of salt and continying to be a voice of reason on there.


I think its a clear sign of unprofessionalism that instead of addressing and responding to concerns or comments in a calm mammer , he refers to it as 'kicking off in the comments'as though people are toddlers and not full grown adults. Anyone who dares to want to watch corrie of an evening with a cuppa is told to 'stop fingering your bumhole to corrie and get some steps in' and low and betide you if you want to put your steps down. Having some tea now and im only on 10000 steps and am not bouncing like a demented person getting them in yay!

He likes to chuck in a bit of homophobia as he’s masking his own feelings I think. He’s gross. I was so upset about taking it so far. I nearly bloody passed out in the park with my child! I had to get home to get my blood sugar up. I want to know who their regulatory body is. I’m so angry honestly. It’s not our fault, they have good pr and they tell the truth about calories so you get sucked in, but they don’t tell you what happens next. Terrible people.

 

[PrincessCharming]

Oh my goodness, yes, his spelling and grammar are both shockingly bad. You’d think he’d get his stuff proof-read by someone with more than half a brain cell.
