Good selection of cheap products but the delivery and returns policy is well behind the times. £4.99 for click and collect in store is just wrong and also to return an item costs well over the odds. M... See more

The item was delivered in good time & the price was ok , unfortunately the box was pretty much destroyed as usual ! Perhaps using evri is not the best idea given their reputation ! This item is a gift... See more

Three days late, now useless

The goods due to be delivered on 25th August have still not arrived today, the 28th, despite me paying for express delivery.
Now they are useless to me, as I have now left on the holiday for which I needed them.

No nonsense

No nonsense, easy to order, fast delivery.
Would have given five stars had the box not been smashed in.
Obviously some rough handling during transit.

Awful experience

Awful experience. Ordered basketball shoes to deliver to a locker. Went to collect, locker was empty, but the order was recorded as delivered. Evri are not helping to find the order. Both companies have dire customer service. Very frustrating.

Extortionate fees for delivery & returns

Had to order shoes for my grandson online as they weren't available in store, delivery was £4.99 which I thought was bad enough but then when they were too small, tried to return them to store but they wouldn't take them, the only option was to return them online at another cost of £4.99 - extortionate!!! I thought I could return free of charge to store so please be aware of their delivery & return fees when ordering online.

Excellent Online Ordering Service

I placed an online order for my husband yesterday with Sportsdirect. They have an excellent choice of great quality clothing. They provided an excellent service, I was able to nominate a Next Day Delivery for my order & I was able to track my order throughout. I would highly recommend them.

Absolutely annoying

Absolutely annoying. Placed an order on line and then tried to cancel it within 5minutes. Had to wait ages for the reply to be told it had already been processed therefore it could not be cancelled. So once I receive it I then have to go through the ball ache of having to return it and will.probably have to pay the postage to do so.

Disappointing online shopping with Sports Direct

I have had a very disappointing online shopping experience with Sports Direct.

The website has very limited functionality when it comes to returns. Once you have started a return, there is no option to add another item from the same order to the existing return package. This is very inconvenient, as it means that once the return process has been started, you cannot add any other items before taking the package to the Post Office. This could easily result in customers having to pay the return fee more than once for items from the same order.

I am also very unhappy with the delivery experience. I was given an estimated delivery date of Monday, 31 August, which led me to pay an additional £10 for Next Day Delivery because I needed the order urgently. However, the parcel actually arrived on Wednesday this week. This makes it feel like I paid an extra £10 unnecessarily for a delivery service that I did not actually receive.

On top of this, I now have to pay a return fee as well, despite the issues being caused by the limitations of the website and the inaccurate delivery estimate.

Overall, I am extremely disappointed with this experience. I have genuinely started to question whether I would ever shop with Sports Direct again, as I do not feel that the service or website provides a good customer experience.

Worst company I have ever bought from

Worst company I have ever bought from. Completely ignore a cancellation. Their customer service is horrendous. Would never buy from them again. They do not deserve even 1 star in the rating.
