Received next working day, no problems.
Placed an order with SD on the Easter Sunday, not expecting to receive the item until around Thursday/Friday the following week due to the bank holiday weekend.
Received my order at Tuesday lunch time. Items were perfect, no faults, no problems.
Husband claimed my free mug though...
All in all, I would definitely order from again, especially if there is another sale on.

DO NOT TRUST SCAMMERS!!!
I ordered 4 items
2 tracksuits where faulty one was the wrong size and an other was missing the pants.
After 7 e-mails i finnaly got a reply.
30% discount for the pants missing and i could send back the wrong size and they wouldd refund my shipping costs. I had to make a photo of the shipping bill whitch i did.
I ONLY RECEIVED A REFUND FOR THE PRICE OF THE TRACKSUIT THEY SEND WRONG.
Send over 10 e-mail to them but no reply.
Luckely i paid with VISA so i can still open a claim with them.
Over more than 10 years i ordered over the internet but i never experianced this.
I live in Belgium and if annybody knows how i can file a complaint in UK please contact me.

Slow delivery and poor returns sevice - AVOID!!
Ordered a pair of trainers online which eventually arrived within a week but which unfortunately came up small. No problem I thought and returned the trainers having filled in the returns slip specifying a replacement not a refund.
Needless to say the replacement shoes were never sent out and emails to SD customer service went unanswered. I eventually got my money back but what a painful and unnecessary experience.
Oh and be warned thay use Yodel delivery service which in itself is a very good reason to shop elsewhere!

Web order was very straight forward
I placed an order for some 2012 men's olympic speedos as a momento from the recent Olympics and this was the only retailer I could find that actually had a fair and reasonable price. I placed the order and it arrived quickly and well packed. No problems here for me. The service in the stores can leave something to be desired though, they often don't have stuff they've advertised in-stock, and their returns policy isn't as good as their competitors (eg they don't offer refunds).

AVOID AS GOODS ARE TO BE RETURNED AT YOUR OWN COST EVEN IF FAULTY
Received two 16" black cabin cases today, cannot fault the delivery time. However one of the cases looks as though it has already travelled around the world at least once! It is absolutely filthy. I know I only paid £7.99 plus half the delivery cost (as two were ordered) making a total of approx £10.00, but It wasn't advertised as second hand/nearly new. I tried 'phoning customer services to log a complaint but needless to say after listening to a load of waffle the pre recorded message finally told me what it could have told me at the begining and that was that they were CLOSED. Altough the goods are faulty, I will have to return at my own cost. BE AWARE YOU WILL BE UNABLE TO RESLOVE ANY ISSUE WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THIS COMPANY WILL EXPECT YOU TO RETURN GOODS AT YOUR OWN COST EVEN IF FAULTY.

YOU SIMPLY CANT CONTACT THEM! THEY IGNORE EMAILS AND YOU CANT RING!
Bought 2 pairs of snow boots after being target marketed by them. Yodel tracking said it had been delivered 3 days later. Of course ive never seen it, and asked all neighbours!!
emailed every day. 12 TIMES in total!! rung various different numbers and been cut off after holding half an hour every time!! Effectively they have stolen my money. Its been over two weeks now with no response!!
If you order online you run the risk of NEVER being responded to if your parcel isnt delivered!!
CUSTOMER SERVICE DISGRACEFUL!!
snow has gone now!!!

Rubbish service , disinterested customer services!!!
Not using YODEL as their courier service would MASSIVELY improve Sports Direct's reputation but they don't seem to CARE so thats fine , they will just LOSE customers as have decided NEVER to order from them again or recommend their deals on HUKD or MSE!!!!! :-(
ORDERED SOME CHRISTMAS SALE ITEMS which I never received but a ''kind'' ( not ) neighbour says it was left outside DOWNSTAIRS for 2 days before it disappeared ..... then SD said ( after keeping me waiting for 20 minutes for my call to be ANSWERED even ) it had been SIGNED FOR but no address for who supposed to have signed for it as Yodel said it WASN'T signed for so a complete SHAMBLES as are quick to TAKE your money but looks like getting any sort of refund will be an absolute nightmare and CS were cold & totally disinterested , absolute RUBBISH service , no goods , no refund & no REAL apology!!

MEGA DÅRLIG SERVICE OG TOMME ORD!!
Hej
Jeg købte dengang jeg gik på efterskole vores årstøj. Tøjet var ikke som det skulle være og de fik det igen, jeg blev lovet noget nyt, men i Sport Direct Kolding bliver de ved med at udsætte det. Det er nu omkring 5 år siden og jeg har stadig ikke fået hvad jeg har betalt for. Hvis det ikke er dårlig service og tomme ord, ja så ved jeg ikke hvad jeg skal kalde det?
Det var ikke muligt for mig at få mine penge igen, men jeg blev bedt købe noget nyt, helt fair for jeg kunne sagtens bruge noget andet. Jeg fik en brochuerer og måtte vælge for omkring 400-500 kr, men da skrev angående størrelser og hvad jeg ønskede var de igen i Sportdirect Kolding tavse...
Jeg er meget skuffet over deres behandling af deres kunder, og jeg ønsker ikke for nogen at de skal opleve det samme som mig.
Jeg håber at sportdirekt måske har noget at sige til mig, jeg mangler service og noget for de penge jeg dengang betalte. Jeg har altså ikke glemt jer, jeg håber ikke at I har glemt mig!!!

Poor in every department
I ordered a pair of trainers and got two pairs of boxers shorts and a mug. I'm a mug for ordering from them online.
I've sent two emails to them and 10 days later still no reply.
They're cheap that's why we are like moths to their cheap flame. But you can't rely on them if they have to do something for you.

Pro Service
I was bought a fantastic Barcelona Away football top as a gift in store at Sports Direct. Loved it but was the wrong size. Took it to another Sports direct (more local to me) day after with receipt to request an exchange, unfortunately they didn't have the size I needed, gave me a gift card for full value (which I can put towards my new football boots) and I bought the size I needed online - arrived next day in great condition.
Both in store and online I was very impressed. No hassle, very friendly and helpful staff (Dereham AND Norwich branch) completely understood my position and online checkout was very good too. No fuss that the item was in sale. Reccomend Sports Direct, would shop again

Aftersales customer service v.poor
I recently purchase two orders from sports direct and they were despatched on time. Well done
My problem started with the shoddy courier service called Yodel. The first package was delivered to the wrong address and I had to go and collect when i noticed other address whilst chasing it up
Second was not even delivered yet again Yodel, they claim they tried to deliver but did not card me to say they tried?
And this is where my problem starts is that Sports Direct are ignoring my emails and sending me replys saying problem now lies with Yodel? Yodel wont reply to emails and are proberbly the poorest company I have tried to deal with. So im at a loose end and all I can do is go back to Barclay card and request a refund for failed goods
My advise whilst they use Yodel to deliver their goods is stay well clear of Web orders and shop in-store
Very dissapointed custome

Worst customer service I have EVER had.
I placed an order with Sports Direct on line and cancelled my order within 15 minuets due to finding a more suitable item somewhere else.
That was at the start of June, we are now the middle of July and I have only just recieved my refund.
I sent a number of emails chasing my refund as I was unable to find a telephone number to call from the website. I have even emailed the MD who has not bothere to reply or arrange for this to be sorted.
After a couple of weeks I managed to obtain a phone number from google. I understand now why they don't adverise the number because the staff are incompetent. I spent pounds calling up as nobody would call me back to discuss as requested on a number of occasions my email and by phone.
I am still trying to get myself removed from the email offers they send as I get a number of these per day yet can not get them to respond to an email sent to them.
I am now also out of pocket due to Sports Direct because of all the telephone calls I have had to make and it has been very time consuming.
I would advise anyone and everyone NEVER to shop with Sports Direct as I would rather pay double the price somewhere else then shop with here.

Very Poor Customer Service
Like many people I have bought many pieces of sports clothing in the last few years from Sports Direct. Obviously the price is the main attraction but until now I have felt the ratio between price and quality was a fair one.
However I bought a pair of black leather Lonsdale trainers on January 5th 2012 and was initially happy with the style, quality and fit. However on Monday July 2nd that changed when I walked a short distance home in the rain, and discovered that both trainers leaked. I took them back on that Friday (once they had dried) and was told by the store that I was one day too late to have them replaced.
At first I thought the manager was joking, after all you could clearly see that other than the leaking soles there was very little wear and tear on them. The soles are a composite design and it was where one material was joined to another that had separated. To me this is clearly a manufacturing fault. Lonsdale brand is actually owned by Sports Direct so they have a vested interest in making sure the quality matches the price. But the company's policy is very much set up to dissuade customers from complaining. A customer has to contact Head office to resolve the issue if the trainers are just one day older than 6 months. Of course many people would just bin the shoes rather than start making phone calls and writing letters. But I am going to fight
for common sense to prevail. Either Sports Direct will replace the faulty trainers or I will continue to look for opportunities to share my horrible experience with other customers.

Avoid
Bought a football shirt and they sent it to me with the security tags still on! Unbelievable. Changing it was a hassle and they made it seem as though it was my fault. Prices are good, but not matched by service.

Go to the store for quality service
Failure to deliver the ordered items is unacceptable. Although a full refund was agreed by Sports Direct I feel they have done nothing but conned me for a short term loan. After the initial report to them that the tracker stated delivered but I hadn't received it took 2 weeks to even get an acknowledgement that they had received the complaint. It took a further 2 weeks for them to investigate the delivery which was determined as being "lost". They asked if I required a new order or a refund, I'm still awaiting the money going into my account. They have had my money for over a month, gaining the interest on that no doubt.
They won't be receiving my custom again!
