“Your website defaults delivery to click and collect and auto selects the first store in the list. If you miss that fact that it has automatically selected this delivery method you can easily have your goods sent to a store 100s of miles from you. The site should not auto fill delivery/click and collect, it should make the buyer select.”

“Your Website is TOTALLY NOT buyer friendly. I was about to buy a whole heap of gear, but was put during the Check-out procedure: 1 - Why would you require my DOB? 2 - There are no extra fields for a proper address, street name and City - I often get parcels sent to a similar address close by because of the fields similar to yours. 3 - Why would i want to create an account to buy something? There is no Guest facility. Think i'll go to a more 'user friendly' store. GOODBYE.”

“Firstly I do not like that you have to pay for your own returns, when it seems pretty standard now aday to receive a free returns label through Royal Mail or collect + etc. Secondly I have returned and sent some shoes back that did not fit me and have not heard anything back from decathlon. No email or something. Quite frustrating.”

“Worst customer service I have ever received. After paying extra for next day delivery the parcel turned up a day late forcing me to not be able to go on the trip I had paid for. When I called to complain I was promised compensation which I never received and I was given an email address to write to complain to which was a fake email address. When I called again I asked to speak to the manager and I was assured they would call me back in the next few days which never happened. I will not be shopping with you again and I will be advising everyone I know to not do also.”

“Click and collect waste of time. Ordered a fully waterproof running jacket, as no where local had it in stock used the click and collect service. First jacket got dispatched but never arrived at the store, took 2 e-mails for them to re-order. I then waited for the e-mail to say that it was available for me to collect. After 5 days of waiting called the service team up, only for the women to cheerfully say if the store hadn't scanned the item, and apparently they don't always, it's probably sat there waiting for me. A quick phone call confirmed this. So basically ignore the information from decathlon that clearly says don't attempt to pick your item up without confirmation that it's there as the e-mail may never come!!!! 1 star was for apologetic staff.”

“My daughters is very tiny, she measures a 6 year old size around her torso - waist, hips, bust but is an age 12 in height. I ordered a few swimming costumes/bikinis for 11 year old and when I opened them, I doubted they would fit a 4 year old! I was right - they didn't even reach her waist. and the bikinis were incredibly small. clearly this is why they were in the sale.”

“This companies online service is a complete joke! wouldn't have room to go into full detail of their incompetence, but basically my first order of football boots had to be returned because the sizes they advertise on their website are incorrect due to differences with uk/eu sizes, ridiculous! I ordered a second pair, then received an email to say they were in store, made a journey to the store to be told sorry they weren't in! They ordered another pair, same thing happened again, computer said they were sent to the store but no sign of them. asked them to cancel the order and guess what?... two days later the store phone to say there in!!!”

“Ordered an item for an event which, on the website, said delivery on or before a certain date. I paid extra delivery to ensure that it was delivered by this date. I then received the shipping e-mail which said it would be delivered on that date or possibly the day after. I phoned up, cancelled my order because I needed the item that day, and they said they would cancel so it wouldn't be delivered. The item was then delivered anyway, so I have to arrange a return. First time ordering from Decathlon, can't say I'm impressed!”
