“Placed an order for delivery after 2 days i got a email to tell me it was shipped and would arrive on Wednesday 19 September great I thought. Wensday comes waiting for delivery about 1 o'clock in the afternoon I get a email to saying my return had beed refunded I never returned anything as I had not received it. Called customer service they said sorry but don't know what happened did not try to rearrange as they had refunded .I asked about complaint they lady could not speak English very well so that was had work only to be told send us a email and a manager will have a look. This company is shocking I would recommend you only purchase in store do not place a online order as you won't get it.!!!!!”

“I find their refund policy unacceptable. Having bought 2 very faulty goods whilst on holiday in France I now find that a refund is not possible. The goods have to be returned to the shop where they were purchased. I have no intention of making the trip back to France to obtain my 40euro refund. Holiday makers be warned. Do not return home unless you have checked your purchases carefully.”

“Spent £60 on running shoes but after the first serious use they caused extensive blistering on my right foot owing to an issue with the insole position (prominent on an already prominent arch). Tried to return but refused because I had used them. When I pointed out that it only became clear after running two miles that they were causing issues that wasn’t good enough. Refused permission to speak to a manager too despite initially being told that would be fine. Worst of all, I was told that they could make an exception if I opened a Decathlon Account, which was a form of bribery. Really bizarre encounter all in. With no recourse I’ve emailed their customer services team”

“I bought a B'TWIN TILT 100 folding bike 2 months ago... My advice: don't buy it! Worst purchase ever! And poor customer service: when I bought the bike, the team hadn't checked the tyres' pressure so I had to take care of it and inflate the tyres once at home ; the saddle was not properly fitted so even though I could use the bike, the saddle got damaged because of this... I use the bike every day in London and the chain comes off at least 3 or 4 times a day! I took it back to the store but they told me they could not do anything about the saddle nor about the chain... in short, the bike is not reliable (and even dangerous, so I got rid of it... just 2 months after I bought it), it's very disappointing and the Decathlon team wasn't helpful before/after the purchase!”

“I placed an order for 5 "online in-stock" items and looking at the order tracking it has taken 5 days for it to even reach "processing". I just called Decathlon up to see when my order will be dispatched and I've been told that wont be for another 4 days (due to a "lag" at the warehouse). What sort of business takes 9 days to even process an order!?? I've now had to cancel the order as it wont get here on time and I'll need to make alternate purchases for my trip next week. Very disappointed.”

“Worst online shopping experience ever! I purchased something for the first time from Decathlon online. After they took the money from my bank account, I suddenly received an email from them that my order was cancelled because the desired item is out of stock. Why is the item showing as still available on the website when it is actually out of stock?! It just shows that there are some severe internal and technical issues on their website. Definitely not reliable and worth to buy anything from there again. This was the first and last time that I will ever buy anything from Decathlon. I would never recommend them to any of my family and friends.”

“God awful experience regarding returning a t shirt and getting a refund. I was considering buying a bike from you but absolutley no chance now after the fiasco with this return. I'd never buy anything from you online again.”

“Bought Surf Paddle online, Ref 2226683 - PALA O REMO AJUST CARBONO 99,99 € - Victory Surf Paddle - which was reduced from 149€ to 99€. Order placed 29th July, credit card debited for 99€ the same day. 5 days later, Decathlon decided to cancel my order - for 99€ - and put the price back on their website to 99€. They claim "website problems". The paddle was for 99€ on decathlon spain and decathon germany. On both websites the paddle is still available for 149€ only that they don't want to honour orders. SHAME ON DECATHLON - BAD CHEATERS AND DISHONEST. Image this happening on Amazon. Stay away from Decathlon!”

“From ordering through to delivery - excellent! Thank you. Some problems initially, but received excellent customer service when the operator communicated with a good command of the English language.”

“I ordered an Olaian 500 Body board on 17/06/18. It was delivered on time, but after unpacking I found 2 dents in the board. I returned the board at my expense on 06/07/18 expecting to have postage costs re-imbursed. This has not happened so far. A replacement board was delivered today 16/07/18, it also is damaged, which was evident without unpacking so I refused to accept it from DHL. To return the item, Decathlon ask you to complete a return statement form (2 sides of A4 = 2 x pdf files) take pictures of damage (2 x jpg's) and also a picture of the delivery details on the package. (1 x jpg). On the 'Contact Us' Form maximum file attachments is 3. (I have 5 to send) The file upload wouldn't work, so I couldn't send any of them, and your Customer Loyalty Team phone number is either not working or no one answers it. Is it any wonder that I think your customer satisfaction feedback is very poor.”

“DOMYOS : Request n° 275159. We seem to have been fobbed off/ignored.We bought a running machine 3 months ago from your Warrington store, it has broken. We have been waiting for over 2 months for a repair or replacement. A technician came to our house and left, saying he did not have parts 3 WEEKS ago! Now, despite several emails we are being ignored. This is VERY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE. The machine was over £500 and we cannot use it or move it. Please get on this today. DOMYOS : Request n° 275159.”
