Super helpful

Jess from the Edinburgh and Nottingham stores was extremely polite, helpful and prompt in responding to my queries. She stayed in touch with me throughout the purchasing process and ensured that all my questions were addressed. I really appreciate her excellent customer service and support. Thank you, Jess and Team FitShop!

Zen was really helpful

Zen was really helpful, showed us all the options and had loads of patience with us whilst we tried absolutely every attachment on multiple multi-gyms. Would highly recommend coming in, rather than buying anything online.

Zen was super helpful and spent so much time talking through various options on what was an expensive purchase for us. We’re very happy with the service provided and cant wait to receive our new kit. Would 100% recommend.

Always great service with a smile. Great kit also.

I have been buying equipment from here for years. The guys are always super helpful and friendly. The products are of great quality whether you want home kit or commercial grade. This place is always my first port of call for training gear. Thoroughly recommend Fitshop Chessington. Always fantastic service with a smile.

Your response is completely incorrect…

Your response is completely incorrect as you are missing a key fact.

The fact I was told by your staff the equipment I ordered and paid for using the exact measurements of the space available!
I did not provide inaccurate measurements or information, your staff did not take in to account the full dimensions of the space, and the angle and layout of the multigym. This particular multi gym sits at an angle, if I had physically seem this when I visited the store I would have immediately realised this.

Your staff assured me it would definitely fit! I went on their assurance and recommendation.

When it was apparent nothing your business could offer as a replacement multi gym I was offer pulley systems etc not what I wanted at all and a very poor alternative to what I was seeking.

The whole experience was incredibly negative, stressful and costly, your business showed no compassion or compromise. And took the very easy route - blame the customer.

As I said not customer centric at all!

I would NOT recommend your business to anyone.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – Outstanding Customer Service!

Absolutely fantastic experience with Fitshop from start to finish!

I recently purchased the Force USA C20 Cornerstone All-In-One Trainer along with a sliding bench, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the service I've received.

A massive thank you to Dorian at the Aberdeen store, who went above and beyond to help me. He was extremely professional, friendly and patient throughout the entire process, answering all my questions about the equipment, delivery and installation.

Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he even managed to put together a fantastic deal for me. It's refreshing to deal with someone who genuinely cares about their customers rather than just making a sale.

The communication has been excellent, and the whole purchasing experience has been straightforward and stress-free.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Fitshop to anyone looking for quality gym equipment. If the rest of the experience is anything like the customer service I've received so far, I'll definitely be a returning customer.

Thanks again to Dorian and the Fitshop team. Absolutely first-class service! 💪

4 weeks and still waiting for missing parts

I have to be balanced and recommend the really helpful staff at the Camberley store who helped by me choose the right product. However after paying it has all gone wrong. The delivery was missing key parts and 4 weeks later I am still waiting for these parts to be delivered. Customer Service is terrible, last week I was told the parts had arrived in the UK and today when I followed this up I was told they had tracking information and the parts are in Belgium. I’ve asked to speak to a manager 4 times over the weeks about the poor service and I’m still waiting for any contact, despite being told there is a policy of being contacted by a manager in 24 hours, I would recommend you go to the stores and try the products, get good advice and buy it from somebody else and save yourself weeks of pain. Very poor customer service.

Dear Customer,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry for the frustration and inconvenience caused by the issues you have experienced.

We would like to reassure you that our team has been actively dealing with your query and working to progress matters as quickly as possible. The parts required to resolve the issue have had to be sourced from a third-party supplier overseas. Whilst we appreciate that this has taken longer than we would have liked, our team have been repeatedly following up and chasing the supplier on your behalf to secure their dispatch.

Following your request for escalation, our Head of Department has also been in direct contact with you to discuss your concerns, provide an update and reassure you that your feedback has been taken seriously.

We appreciate that this experience has not been what you expected, and we remain committed to seeing the matter through to a satisfactory conclusion.

Kind regards,

Fitshop Team

Poor service and slow repairs for expensive equipment

I purchased equipment in start of January, delivery date took 3-4 weeks to arrive so I got using my new kit around Feb.

The peddle wasn’t screwed in properly which on 3rd October half way through training the peddle flew off as it was cross threaded.

The fault was reported immediately and now a month later they still haven’t sent the parts, and offer no immediate solutions. They advised the part is ordered but they continue to sell these bikes on their website “in stock, next day delivery”, so they can get the bike but not the parts? I have asked if they can just replace the bike and they ignore my emails, so after spending more than £5000 in the store, I get a complete lack of service and no actual solutions to get my very expensive equipment working or replaced.

Very poor customer service, never buying here again

Dear Customer,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear of the issues you have experienced with your bike and appreciate your frustration, particularly given the investment you have made with Fitshop.

With regard to installation, our installation services are advertised as taking up to 14 working days. This is due to the fact that we work with third-party installation teams to coordinate these services. This information is published on our website at the point of purchase.

In relation to the issue with your bike, we acknowledge that the time taken to source and arrange the required parts has been longer than we would have liked, and we apologise for the inconvenience this has caused. We appreciate that being without functioning equipment for this length of time is disappointing, and we understand your concerns regarding the availability of the product itself.

Our team have been in direct contact with you to discuss the issue and work towards a suitable resolution. Please be assured that we are keen to bring this matter to a satisfactory conclusion and that your feedback has been shared with the relevant teams for review.

We are sorry that your experience has fallen short of the standard of service we aim to provide and thank you again for bringing this to our attention.

Kind regards

Fitshop Team
