Even one star is a bit rich. Their happy to take your order, take your money. But constantly lie about delivery times, how and when the order is coming. No way of getting in touch with customer service. Absolutely awful service. Your best bet, is to use them for any measuring or trying a club out, then simply buy it online. I could have had more money for my clubs and bought the new ones for less, but felt I’d use a local business to help promote the area, but really wish I hadn’t.

25.06.21 I had set of irons measured in store and paid £815, was told 6-8 weeks. 01.07.21 email to say delivery around December, (is this poss Nov 21 or maybe Jan 22?). I emailed back to cancel order. They ignored my requests. I went to store today, 13.07.21 to cancel order and they say I can't as clubs personalised, even though they are far from being made but the order has gone in and that they can now get order to me for sometime possibly mid-Sept. Staff told me that they have 450 orders with delays because of Brexit and the pandemic.

Ordered a driver for Sunday delivery (extra tenner) over a week ago. I ordered on sat thinking it would land Sunday. Fair enough my bad. A week later however still not here. It’s late Sunday now. Sent me a dispatched email but the courier hasn’t got it. Ffs

Ordered a cobra king 60 degree wedge and not even a dispatch email been sent out. This was ordered over 11 days ago, and nothing sent. I’ve contacted them 3 times, has it been sent, why is it taking so long and a refund is now wanted. No replies off any of them. Mcguirks golf instead sends out confirmation email and dispatches with receiving in the space of 3 days. Utter joke American golf customer services are.

Waited two weeks for a putter to then be refunded as it was out of stock. Now waiting on a £290 putter, a week overdue with no correspondence. Also ignoring me on twitter DM. Very very poor service considering the money you are paying.

9th June 15:17:38BST ordered 2x2pk golf gloves paid with PayPal reported as being processed and tracking would be provided. Contacted American Golf several times and received replies order being checked.I had asked for reason for delay , but no information given or for item having no tracking details . I also asked if original item had been sent NO REPLY!!! My item delivered 17th June 10:20 Am. NO Apology from American Golf or reason for the bad delivery of my items or compensation has been given>BE Warned if ordering it appears this is a common fault with the delivery service offered.

Purchased a driver on the 02/05/21 for £399. They quoted me 3 weeks, max 5, delivery. Received a call last week stating I wouldn't receive the club until the 15th July. 11 weeks from ordering. I tried to cancel they wouldn't allow me too. They've since made an effort and said I can get the club on the 22nd June. Tried to cancel again, not allowed. NEVER USE AMERICAN GOLF. If in Leeds/Bradford area go to Express golf. I've since bought some irons from them. The service was fantastic. I'll never use American golf again.

shockingly bad service. I ordered a putter online on the 6th of may as a gift for someone. I was told it would take up to 7 working days for this to be delivered. After no contact, I then emailed on the 17th to ask the status of this, I received an email ensuring it would be chased up. Again I heard nothing so on the 19th I emailed again to chase this up and was told the order was cancelled due to the item being out of stock. It took that whole time for anybody to realise this item was out of stock and if I hadn’t chased this up then I dread to think how much longer it would’ve took for someone to contact me. Will definitely be sure to never use this service again and will be advising all friends and family of this. Extremely disappointed.

They say the order is ready to be dispatched and cannot be cancelled, but it's been like that for a week. Literally holding my item hostage.

Booked in for a 'FREE' custom fitting. A few days before the fitting I got a call from someone at American Golf in Airth asking what my fitting was for. I said I have a relatively new driver, but unsure of what flex and length etc I'd be best suited for. Ive never had a fitting before. So, for that fitting i'm wanting fit for a new shaft that I'll buy from them for my driver. Their attitude changed completely and said they wouldn't just SELL me a shaft. Well, I said I'll just take my 'FREE' fitting then to work out what shaft I need. They told me no they wouldn't do that, because I'm not buying anything! (I should have read the reviews before booking as other people have experienced the same thing. One person actually said that in the middle of the fitting he told them he might not buy anything and the swiftly stopped the fitting and wouldn't give him his results!) It doesn't say anywhere on their site that you actually need to buy something for the fitting! What I didn't tell them was I'm looking to get custom fitted for a full set of irons soon also, which they've now lost out on. Me and my mates have spent some amount of money in their shop over the years when they were located at Brucefields in Stirling, along with all the money we've spent at the driving range at Airth! I even bought my Callaway MD4's from the PGA professional that was at Brucefields when they were located there! Absolute rogues who are only interested in your money. I, along with all my mates, won't be back to them or the driving range! Which is sad as I've been going to that range for years. Steer well clear.

Purchased Taylormade waterproof golf bag £249. American golf not interested with faulty zips. Lots of bad reviews about zips. Bag has not a lot of use.

Ordered online over 2 weeks later and all they tell you is delays due to COVID, that old excuse! Avoid at all costs.

Order placed via EU website but no mention that import duties could apply. Courier wants the equivalent of 30% of the purchase value to release the order from customs. AmericanGolf have not replied to my email, their webchat doesn't work and the phoneline is on an endless "please hold" message then cuts me off. Call back is then engaged or "dead". Can't get hold of them to arrange a return and refund. Terrible experience!

Without a doubt the worse online shopping experience I have ever experienced in my life! - Order placed - Money taken of CC - Order delivered to a random address in Leicester - I requested delievery to Derby address - Item now out of stock - Won't collect from Leic and deliver correctly - Promised Refund a week ago, still waiting - 5 emails sent .. still NO REPLY - National Customer Service phone mailbox is full so message says please try later! ABSOLUTELY SHAMBOLIC!!!!

AMERICAN GOLF WEBSITE REVIEW: Terrible after sales care. Standard Delivery (Free) says it will be delivered within 7 working days. That was 2 days ago and it hasn't even been dispatched yet! Try and call? No one answers... Try and use the online chat? No ones there... This will be the last clubs I buy from American Golf. Save the hassle and buy elsewhere where they treat you properly as a customer.

Not even 1 star ? Do not touch this company with a barge pole !!! I had a custom fitting in December & was told I would have my order by the end of February at the latest? To cut a long story short I had a call on Wednesday the 6th of April out of the blue to just let me know that my custom fit order will be ready at the end of June. OMG that's 7 months to fulfil an £800 order & the worst thing about it is no apology & basically they don't care one bit !! As soon as they take your hard earned cash they are happy. I will be going into the store on Monday the 12th April for a full refund & will never ever spend another penny in this business as long as I live. Customers be very careful before going to this company. my advice is to go to your club professional & get a custom fit . From a very, very, very disappointed ex customer.

EU BUYERS BEWARE EU buyers need to beware, you are being misled by American Golf. They will take your order placed on a .EU website, priced in Euro and displaying your countries own vat rate. However, they will not tell you that you will be liable for import/customs charges when your item arrives. Their comment to earlier complaints regarding this issue on Trustpilot is to say it's out of their control. This is not true, its totally in their control to make customers aware that they are not buying from a legitimate EU website but from a UK website and customs charges will apply. AMERICAN GOLF - YOU NEED TO BE HONEST WITH YOUR CUSTOMERS!
