“Terrible customer service. Yesterday I came into the shop and had a long discussion with a member of staff about bikes. Today I returned with a view to possibly buying one. I was keen to test ride a bike and was told that a member of staff would be there as soon as they could. I was left standing around until I truly felt like a spare part when I noticed at least 5 newly arrived customers being seen to befwithout the slightest glance my way. Nice one. You've lost yourselves a sale to a very credible member of the cycling world.ore”

“After making a purchase online, I received an unwanted email from you. That's fair enough - I simply looked for the unsubscribe button and could not find this - all reputable companies make it easy to unsubscribe. I therefore rang and eventually was assured I would get no more emails. I am still getting emails. This is not good enough.”

“Ordered a bike for my daughters birthday. Was her only present. Was given a date of delivery in time for birthday but parcel was lost by the courier resulting in my daughter not having a birthday present on her special day. Was not happy! However the bike is brilliant and very good value for money.”

“Items could only be delivered on an specific date with a 12 hours delivery window. Do you really expect people to stay at home for 12 hours waiting for a delivery? Really poor service by DHL”

Thank you for writing your review. We are sorry to hear that you experienced problems with the delivery of your order. In regards to the DHL service, the customer should receive a text message in which the delivery company informs the customer that the parcel has already been sent, and since then, the order should take a couple of hours to arrive. We do apologize for the inconveniences caused. Thank you for your patience. Have a nice day!

“Received very poor customer service when I ordered goods to be picked up in store. Received email to say it was ready to be picked up. Husband went to store and was told by 3 people it wasn't there and they had no record of it. I telephoned customer service line and was told it was in store, attitude of person on phone was very rude. I informed her that my husband had been and sent away without parcel. She phoned me back and said it is there you can get it now. I explained my husband was now home and could we have the goods delivered to home now. She said no because I don't know how to do that. The store was quite a distance away so didn't want to make that journey again having already had one wasted journey.”

“The staff were horrendously inattentive. I went today in the hopes of purchasing a treadmill and exercise bike. Sadly the NordicTrack was no longer in stock but still advertised. I was open minded to trying alternative makes however the staff member in charge of this particular area not only had to be retrieved by another member of staff after over half an hour of waiting but couldn't even find a key to activate the treadmill. So I left the store without a single purchase and do not intend to ever by a product from this store again.”

“Our parcel was delivered to completely the wrong address. Thankfully there are still some good people in the world and they tracked us down. I love Decathlon but they need to use a delivery company whose drivers are able to deliver to the right address.”

Dear Georgina, we are sorry to learn you experienced difficulties due to your order being delivered to a different address. In cases like such as yours it will be indicated on your tracking code e.g. NUM 4 NXT DOOR, delivery couriers will deliver to the neighbouring address if there is no recipient available to receive the delivery at the given address, we apologise this was the decision taken without your prior knowledge and will file your complaint to escalate with DHL in our next meeting.

“I do not recommend this bike to anyone because the bike does not work safely and properly. I bought firstly woman style one and it had big problems. I refunded it and I bought the man style one. Because the price was awesome and I'd like to give a change again. The man style one has same problems as well. :( Unfortunately, I am not satisfied with this bike. It is poor quality!

“I bought a table tennis table off the website almost 2 months ago now, and it still has not been delivered. Organisation between Decathlon and DX (logistics company) is hopeless as is the level of communication. Every time they say they will deliver it I then get a generic text on the morning saying they are not delivering it and they will contact me. They never contact me. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THESE PEOPLE. THEY ARE INCOMPETENT!!”

“OK well here goes. I placed an order on the 6th June 2016 and I am still waiting for my delivery!! Yes it has been a bit of a nightmare really I am hoping to receive the items tomorrow but I am not holding my breath. Decathlon blamed the DK2man delivery company and DK2man blamed Decathlon... I really don't care whose fault it is but it has not been dealt with very professionally or very quickly. I had to ask someone to wait in for the original delivery that never materialised and will now have to ask them again to wait for the delivery tomorrow. The delivery companies way of dealing with the customer is not very good either as it is very difficult to actually speak to them and then they too are not very helpful. Today I spoke to Decathlon at 4.15pm and it is now 7pm and they have not yet called me back. I thought I was the customer ...... I am truly not feeling very satisfied by the whole experience.”
