“Ordered a childs scooter online . Looks like Decathlon have renamed all their scooter range as the online names of the model do not match the 'on the box' or shelf names which makes choosing very confusing. Once id realised this had caused me to order the wrong product i tried to cancel but i could not get through to the customer service number and the online support was useless. They ended up dispatching the item via DHL then told me to refuse the delivery ?? Obviously a cheaply run online service with little or no infrastructure, totally useless”

Dear Scott, Thank you for the time you spent for giving us your feedback. We are sorry to hear you are not satisfied with our services and we really appreciate your review as we are trying to improve our services every day to make sport more accessible to everyone. Unfortunately, once your order has a "preparation in progress" or "dispatched" status, we are no longer able to undertake any modifications because the order is being loaded or already in the hands of the courier. This is why we suggested to refuse the parcel when received and ask for a replacement or a refund. We hope to see you soon for a better experience at Decathlon! Please apologise for any inconvenience caused and feel free to contact us for any questions. Have a lovely day!

“In store I was told to order an item online that wasn't in stock and that it would be delivered next day. Next day the online side of the business told me my item had been sent for store pick up however the store did not have it. Nobody could tell me where my item was or when it would be available. Complete shambles and left me with a very disappointed daughter. I'll go elsewhere in future.”

“Decathlon wednesbury didn't even know they had received my bike, I had to ring up the helpline to find out where it was as it was taking far too long to pick up and collect. As I was using public transport at the time, I found it annoying that they didn't know, as I could have saved a pretty penny by commuting on my bike instead of public transports. Dissapointed”

“Really disappointed! After a week I received an email saying, "Your order has been cancelled!" The explanation given in the email was that as it had taken longer than 7 days (expected delivery date exceeded) to process my order paypal was declining payment. When I go to my paypal account it looks as if payment has been made and then refunded, when I rang up decathlon and asked about it they said that there was a problem with my paypal account. They did say that to compensate they would email me a 10% discount voucher, but this has not arrived (not that I want to use decathlon again). So I do not have the items that I wanted and I do not have time to reorder from someone else before I go on holiday. I have always loved using decathlon in the past, great products and fast delivery, but sadly this has changed my opinion.”

“Orders arrive never on time. You cannot track properly the order...:-( It is due to 2 different stocks, one in UK and one in France. But it should be better to know precisely what is available for when instead of receiving the answer that everything is available without giving us the real delay it will take to have our order.”

“Someone high up in Decathlon could do with talking to me. The negative feedback based on personal experience I can offer will be both shocking and informative for your Company. So angry am I about my Bike purchase that I am tempted to escalate the matter. Not to Decathlon as I have lost faith in you, but to B'Twin themselves!!!!”

“Delivery was AWFUL. I think it was DHL. They came and left a note with an online login/instruction which I used (saying leave with neighbour) and then they promptly ignored - coming back and leaving another note saying they'd visited again - again I went online again instructing them to leave with neighbour - they came back AGAIN and left a note and so I rang their "Customer Services" (0845 my mobile my money) who told me that their policy is not to leave with neighbours (DPD etc don't have a problem with this and people sign for it and they leaves notes through doors) so instead DHL instructed me to "leave a note on my front door asking them to leave it with a neighbour - and SIGN that note" ...!!! So i am supposed to pin my SIGNATURE to my front door!! HILARIOUS. I won't be ordering anything from Decathlon again (until I know they've changed courier),”

“I made a purchase "in store" via the TV screen. The item was paid for by credit card in store. A few days later I went to collect the item. By then I had decided not to purchase the item so on arrival at the store I said I did not wish to have the item so a member of staff undertook to fund me. I was told the refund would be back on my card in a few days. Over three weeks has elapsed and there is still no refund. Decathlon have been in touch a few times asking for account numbers and sort codes. I have explained all I have is a credit card number which is usually all that is required. They persisted requesting details. I suggested I go to the store for a refund. Again I had to wait for Decathlon to confirm this. Finally they say I can get a refund in store, so I have a 20 mile round trip to make to get a refund which should have automatically taken place over three weeks ago - value £100. I will not be using their in store order system again”

We appreciate your review as we are trying to improve our services every day to make sport more accessible to everyone. I can see from the communications with my colleague she gave you all the information needed few days ago, in order to refund a payment made in store we need to ask the credit card details as in the online system there are no records.
