Really bad online service and customer care. I ordered something and for some reason decathlon wasn't able to validate my translation (on my side transaction went trough perfectly). They never notify me about this problem. I contacted them twice, first time a really bad agent (named Ramadhan Ruzaiman) reply to me with a standard email stating that the problem is on the delivery service without mentioning an issue in the transaction. Only after spending a day on the live chat I was able to identify the problem. Not that the agent acknowledge the fact that the transaction wasn't validated by decathlon's system but was perfectly fine withing banking system

I signed up to order something then the only option is to click and collect because you have hit your limit for delivery’s?

Sent me only one quarter of what I ordered, charged full price. It was definitely a silly mistake made in haste but I got no help at all from customer services. I phoned my local store and spoke to a very helpful and kind employee but they were unable to help. I'm really upset that I threw away money at this particularly difficult time. Will never shop here again.

Decathlon are a disgrace , they messed up my order and continue to pass the blame around including blaming me. Instead of being cowards why dont you fix your mistakes and compensate customers appropriately instead of blaming everyone else.. i strongly advise that no one orders from decathlon.. you will get the same products elsewhere and have no hassle or trouble with you deliveries. As i said, DO NOT use this company! They dont care for their customers , only money!

Decathlon Bolton the member of staff on the till called Daniel is bolshy and very rude. He was talking about customers to other members of staff in ear shot of customers. He should be stacking shelves in the warehouse not serving customers. He gives the Bolton store a bad reputation.

We have placed the order on the 6th January for delivery to our home address, your delivery team tried to delivery it without any notice and no one was present. We contacted your team to request a delivery from 4pm and to be made aware couple of hours before that the driver is on the way. We were reassured that we will be contacted and it did not happen on the second delivery, and they have attempted to do it at lunch time again and no one was present since we are both working. Then we asked for a delivery at Decathlon on Hight Street Kensington where we could collect it from. We were told that it is not possible to change the delivery address. After a week, we called again asking for a solution since no delivery are possible on Saturday. As this point and after insisting, they finally agreed to change the delivery address to my partner work place. Since Monday they have not deliver the bike, therefore we have called them today and request a refund after 10 days back forward with your team. We were told that it is not possible. Then we have asked when we can expect the delivery and no answer was given, after expressing our disappointment, the person hung up the phone on my partner. It is not how we should treat a customer and especially when she was not rude or aggressive with your team, but disappointed by the service and express it in a polite manner . No delivery to date day 15... poorest service in retail's history

First time iv'e used Decathlon online and what a mess. The order that arrived was nothing remotely like what is on their website. Called to sort this out, They sent a replacement which was exactly the same! Over two weeks and the issue is still not resolved. All returns have to be taken to an ASDA store so unless you have one in your town you will have to travel to one. The online customer services (Live chat) is incredibly slow and the staff very rude. Appalling experience all round

Online order went missing. After 3 weeks of ordering haven't had goods or a refund. Tracking information clearly states order not delivered and yet they want to complete a lengthy investigation. Still waiting to receive almost £200 back from them. Will never use again. DO NOT ORDER ONLINE!

Shopping in store at decathlon is fine and the quality and price are good. The online shopping experience is almost laughable due to the way they are set-up. The order was made and a delivery date set. The order has now been procesding for 5 days and still hasn't left the warehouse. As I wanted to take the items away I've asked for a cancellation so I can just go buy the items from local shops (even though it's more expensive I need these things for monday). So I've sent emails made phone calls and gone through online chat. No one knows why the items haven't been sent. Because of their system they cant cancel the order despite it not having been sent yet or get me weekend delivery. The outcome is for me to not accept the delivery whenever it arrives (no one can tell me when it'll leave the warehouse and I wont be here for delivery anyway.). Then they will refund me at 3-5 days in the future, it's a large order so I dont really have the extra money to buy everything again locally whilst waiting for the refund. Essentially dont believe the delivery dates online even if it says the items are in stock. Even if you get it as click and collect it doesn't change the fact that they have no idea when itll be delivered or dispatched. And then trying to find that information is impossible as no one knows why or where it is. Really bad experience and terrible customer service.

I've ordered 3 pairs of riding trousers and a helmet as they didn't have it in store they offered to order it for me online. The estimated delivery was 10 days, as I was going on horse riding holidays in 14 days I was a bit worried it would not arrive in time however the staff in store reassured me that there wont be a problem plus I had additional 4 days to play with in case of a delay. On day 9 I received an email stating that there was a problem with my order and i need to contact them. So i did, it turned out that the helmet was not in stock( it took them 9 days to realise this !?). So I selected another helmet and asked when it will be delivered I was told that now it will be delivered day later than planned. On day 10 I received another email stating that there was another problem with my order, I contacted them again and now it turned out that the trousers were not in stock either so I selected another pair, the delivery date of the whole order got shifted by a day again to day 12. I explained that I am going on holiday and I need this by day 12 latest staff reassured me that it will be delivered no problem. On day 12 I received another email that there was another problem with my order it turned out that other pair of trousers was damaged and and to get another pair shipped it will take a week ! They offered alternative pair so I agreed highlighting that it has to be delivered no later than day 14 staff again reassured that it will not be a problem. On day 14 I checked the online status and my order has not arrived yet . I called the customer support and explaining that I am leaving for holiday tomorrow morning and I need the hat and helmet today. He was not particularly helpful or understanding he said I should go and buy another one in store when I said that they have money for my order and they could make some sort of discretionary arrangement where I could pick another hat from the store and they would deduct the cost from my order he said it was not possible. The customer service assistant showed no empathy or willingness to help. Basically Decathlon completely messed up my holiday plans I had to go on a horse riding holiday with no horse riding gear ! I asked for money to be refunded to my account as the order did not arrive and I no longer needed. He said the money will be refunded in 3 days . I got back from a holiday week later and the money was still not refunded. Called the customer support and they said that they didn't know my account details so they could not transfer me the refund. In 8 days since I asked for a refund. They made no attempt to contact me and ask for my account details, but instead choose to ignore it and keep the money. Then once I provided the details I was told that they only do the refunds on Mondays and the deadline for today has passed therefore my refund will only be processed next Monday. Again I highlighted all issues I had with the order and she basically said there is nothing they can do. This is by far the worst experience I've ever had with any retailer and would not recommend them to anyone.

Opening from new archery set had no bow string, email phone and chat all saying bring back to store, explaining we bought it on holiday, and store was 200 miles away, all said same thing, bring back to store, this company is useless.

Complelety useless customer service. Ignore messages on facebook after they have been read. I even gave them a solution to my problem which they said they would look into. Never heard anything back even though all it would have taken is for them to ring my nearest store...one phone call. 2 days has now gone past with more messages ignored. Not sure who has overall charge of customer service in this company but they need to be sacked as clearly they can not run this area of the business. Avoid.
