I am trying to get planet fitness to accept cash paying customers or at least forms of payment other than direct debit from your checking account.

Not all people are comfortable with or able to give out their personal checking acount information for a gym membership. Which  is currently the only option they provide.  Some people don't make a steady income and need to pay in advance when they have the funds.  Some people are afraid to give out that personal info because others or them selves have been through a bad experience where the gym had continued to charge the account  after they discontinued membership.  Which sometimes  involves the hassle of having to close out your checking account or filing a dispute with your financial institution.  This in position would not be necessary if they would just provide the option of excepting other forms of payment. 

 Myself and others love the amenities that their gyms provide and would love to obtain membership if it were an option for us.  Please help me show Planet Fitness how many great and loyal customers this company is missing out on because of the fact that they won't except other forms of payment.
