Hundreds of people who are members of F45 Helensvale had their weekly payments of a minimum of $55 a week put on hold last Thursday.

The Bulletin has attempted F45 Helensvale’s owner Michael Hughes – whose gym business is formally named The FourFive – multiple times over the past week and a half by phone and email and he has not responded.

It remains unclear why the gym abruptly closed.
