I quite liked them in a way when they first started as they brought something a bit different and his manner was a bit shocking but it intrigued me and I thought he made good points. He just got progressively cruder and nastier, and has become a hypocrite as he’s worse than any diet club. I’ve seen/heard stories from people who left his group (staff and members) and he most definitely sounds like a horror in real life!
I was exactly the same, I've even defended them in the past. But the more you dig into it and the longer you follow their clique you realise how toxic they are. The final straw was deffo the heavy handed debt collecting. They fail to mention that when they are persuading you how much they care for you and how they will save you from evil slimming clubs. Plus I don't like how they are relying on a free app like MFP to count the cals but charge you £6.99 a month for info that's pretty much given out freely on their fb page and can be worked out with a BMR calculator. Not many overweight people need to concentrate on macros at first. It's not for me anymore.

Totally agree, I think people only need to worry about macros if they’re nearing their goal weight and/or weight loss has plateaued, or if they are particularly interested in fitness or a specific sport. I can’t believe they charge £6.99 a month and their app doesn’t even work most of the time! Apparently he cut corners with the app but he makes out he paid top dollar for it. Wouldn’t trust anything he said now!

And that's another reason why he cannot hold people to these ridiculous contracts. They are not getting access to what they are paying for. That is a a stipulation of a subscription service, you must receive a decent quality of goods. He can swivel the app is crap. You get sod all for your money, just some links to his SHOP....🤫

I’m sure he made out as though he’d been let down by the original app developers as an excuse for the app being crap. Another example of him being a hypocrite, nothing’s ever his fault (the app, the affiliates and staff leaving, members being upset when he sends nasty messages to them) but he tears apart anyone who “refuses to take responsibility” in his group - pot kettle! Too many instances of other people supposedly being out to get him, he’s the one common denominator and it astounds me that more people can’t see it!
 
Just registered so I can join in. Just been having this debate on a Facebook group. Not long after I joined I realised I had made a big mistake! I knew all the stuff. I was raging to be paying £6.99 a month to use mfp! He's such an angry ranty man. And the walkie talkies are so cringe. I tried to persevere but once the app started failing every day I stopped. Been fighting with Ashbourne I'm on maternity and partner lost job due to pandemic but they aren't for shifting. I can't wait for the year to be up. I'm now going to read all 7 pages of comments.

Yeah the app problem was a thing when I was a member! Is it still bad? It had a cheapness to it. I felt like I didn't get anymore out of it than using mfp & fitbit for free.
I contacted them at one point & basically asked "is this it?" I thought there would've been more to it all after joining.

Don't let them bully you! They are a micky mouse company who make threats. It's absurd. If enough of us tell them to piss off there's not a lot they can do. They could easily release you if they wanted, absolute arseholes the lot of them.

No it's crap! All it is is the videos you watch, some meals, some exercise, and links to buy their tit. If you need help the links take you round in circles. You still link it with MFP and put your weight, steps, water in. Oh and it tells you the macros. That's it really.
 
Im sure when I left it was very easy. I wonder what's made them take this approach? It would put me right off signing up.
I don't want to offend any existing members but I felt that they would end up a bit cult like & if you went against them there would be a squad of Team RH members waiting for you with their black & red hoodies 😂 except Rachel, she'd just be doing a pirouette & smiling somewhere.

I don't see how they can charge what they do when they reply on MFP in order for the plan to work, and ww only charges like £2/3 more and the whole service is inclusive on one app. Hahahaha I totally get it, it does seem to attract some interesting people 🤣🤣🤣 😳 I dunno how Rach sticks him honestly 🤦🏼‍♀️
 
Exactly! I wonder if MFP will chase them for a cut 😂
I don't know either! Maybe she likes his odd culinary preferences, what was it weetabix & cottage cheese or something? She was a school teacher before wasn't she? Probably deals with him the same way as the school children 😂 "if you sit quietly for 10 minutes Richie, we can get you some crayons" 😂😂
 
So has anyone else on here cancelled their direct debit and currently being hounded?

I did this last year and got hounded for 3 months. I emailed them and told them I wasn’t paying. They were absolute horrors!!

I did Munro fitness and I didn’t realise they used to work together, but what I liked about Munro was that in the fb group they genuinely seemed to care. He also seems to be doing more qualifications like the MNU so seems to have a better understanding of nutrition instead of just work outs!

Yesterday I got two emails and a text from Ashbourne

As far as I know there are still issues with the app but I haven’t been a member for a while. They’ve got a cheek really, the only decent thing about the app was it calculated your macros but you can easily do that online! The responses in the group are all very generic and still seem to be mostly from unqualified “coaches” like they’re reading off a script in a call centre. I also hate the walkie talkies but to me the workouts led by unqualified members are even worse. They’ve got a brass neck charging people for this stuff, not very professional at all!
 
I put a post on my Instagram about how it's a con. It's about 50/50 people agreeing and then people defending them. Apparently I'm a failure for not getting my steps and don't like being called out on it by the angry man. I certainly don't feel like a failure for not dragging my kids out when it rains just to get a yellow star
 
Oh they didn’t even offer to freeze my account

Also there appears to be no telephone number to contact this Ashbourne?

Team RH gave me their email when I wanted to cancel.
I'm getting all sorts of tit on Instagram for calling them out. I have no morals apparantly. Because I wanted to get into shape after having a baby I'm not enjoying him being a baby and I jumped in too soon.

What on earth?? Is this other members of team rh saying this to you??

They make me so so mad the way they hound people! No care for any individual circumstances whatsoever.

Tell them all very firmly to duck OFF!! You are allowed to have an opinion it has nothing to do with the rest of his sheep. Don't feel bad I totally get where you're coming from. I have a 2yr old and struggle with fitness etc. Pack mentality it really makes me angry! They're bloody worse than the SW cult they think they are so above 🙄
