Don’t waste your time with this site
Don’t waste your time with this site. Paid for order, received order confirmation and then heard nothing for a week…. Emailed them and just got a message saying order was cancelled … Pathetic
After seeing your response to my review I will add that I find it strange my payment was declined as I have an email saying the opposite!! And also a refund wasn’t automatically done…. I had to chase up the order and have someone look into it before it was sorted out!! Any other lies or is that it?

They cancelled the order 8 days after I ordered.
Never received my shoes - I had ordered them on the 6th with no tracking number sent on the 13th.
I had to chase them to ask what was going on.
They just issued a refund saying the problem was " my address" which isnt true.
I have been waiting for these shoes to train again.
Just noticed an email saying "refund on its way" - Fingers crossed it even arrives!
So bad. Will never purchase or recommend this website again. First and last time.

Dear Albane, we are so sorry to hear that your order was cancelled.
Unfortunately, due to a technical issue relating to the details provided on the order, we were unable to successfully process and dispatch it to the courier. As a result, the order could not be shipped, and a full refund was issued.
We appreciate that this was frustrating, particularly as you were looking forward to receiving your trainers, and we apologise for the inconvenience cause.

The Sports Edit was my worst experience EVER
I ordered some trainers on 4th July as a birthday gift for my Wife on 12th July thinking a week to deliver would be enough, how wrong was I.
I was so pleased to receive tracking information on the 5th July stating that Evri were going to deliver my parcel on a 2-4 day delivery service.
I have checked the tracking on Evri every day since and all it says is '' We're expecting it''
I have contacted TSE and they send a generic email stating your order is with Evri and when I contact Evri they say the order is with the customer (TSE).
The issue here is that TSE's customer service appears to be AI and very limited with no other alternative to contact.
I purchased from TSE because they are part of M&S who are usually OK, however the poor customer service, lack of ability to solve a problem and the time I've spent trying to deal with them is definitely the worst experience I have had with any online order.

Absolutely disgusting company no…
Absolutely disgusting company no customer service whatsoever. DO NOT buy from this company they do not chase delayed orders and use the worst courier service EVRI which you only have a fifty percent chance on goods being delivered. I am now £100 out of pocket they will claim for the loss of products on company insurance and keep my money ! They have refused a refund and to resend out my products so I will report them to ever possible organisation to investigate so other people do not get scammed !!

Hi Jacqueline, we're really sorry to hear your experience, this does not sound like our usual level of care which we pride ourselves with. After review we can see that our team have been in regular contact with you since your first email and have been providing fast support, and updates throughout after your parcel was unable to be delivered on its first delivery attempt.
We've already responded directly to you and have now issued a full refund to resolve the matter asap.

Avoid - appalling customer service
My order was marked as dispatched 12 days ago but was never received by Evri.
I contacted The Sports Edit on the estimated delivery date and was told "the heatwave" (that had ended several days prior) was to blame but they had made no attempt to communicate this delay. The heatwave seemingly did not affect any other Evri deliveries I sent or received during this time including one placed with M&S and fulfilled by The Sports Edit on the same day!
My subsequent attempts to resolve this issue and later cancel my order were ignored for 5 days despite an auto reply claiming that I would receive a response within 12 hours.
This review has been updated to reflect the fact that the issue has now been resolved but unfortunately it took leaving a one star review to induce a response and resolution.

Dear Joy, thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry for the delay with your order and the frustration this has caused.
The recent heatwave has unfortunately had a significant impact on parts of the courier network, which has led to delays outside of our direct control. We completely understand that this does not make the wait any less disappointing, especially as your parcel should have been delivered by now, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience. We will be in touch with you right away to arrange the next steps and get this resolved as quickly as possible.
We would also like to reassure you that there is no reason to believe we are not a legitimate retailer because of this unexpected delay. We are a genuine and trusted retailer, owned by Marks & Spencer, and we are always here to help our customers when issues arise.
Again, we are very sorry for your experience, and we appreciate your patience while we work to resolve this for you.

Disappointed
****Edit ****
Customer services have reimbursed my delivery charge. I ordered the trainers again and am awaiting their arrival 🙏
Ordered for the first time this week. Waited on my new trainers to arrive only to receive all massive pair of men’s shoes??? After paying £4 at least for the delivery and now have to return them. And they don’t offer exchanges so I’m too afraid to reorder… just disappointing

New pair of running trainers
Ordered a new pair of running trainers; I knew what I wanted having used this brand and model before. Email confirmation, order processing and delivery was smooth and as expected. After a couple of runs, it became evident that there is a manufacturing issue with the stitching on the tongue causing blistering. I contacted Sports Edit to see if it can be looked into with the manufacturer. I received prompt communication from Sofia and within a couple of days the issue was completely resolved. The customer service is exceptional and I would certainly use Sport Edit again. Thank you for making this such a positive experience!

I ordered a pair of trainers from this…Order479004
I ordered a pair of trainers from this site and as soon as I ordered realised they were the wrong ones so cancelled payment . The money had already left my account so emailed to say I wanted different pair but needed my money back first
. Received email stating money would be back in account 2-3 days so waited
. No money arrived so emailed again and got told refund started on the 23rd June so would be 5 days ??
. We are now on 7th day and I have sent three emails in last two days and heard nothing ??
. This is totally unacceptable considering you pride yourselves on service
. I am owed the some of £89 and will require back in my account by tomorrow.
If I am not contacted or monies are not back I will contact my bank and then trading standards

Dear Lorraine, we’re really sorry to hear how frustrating this has been, we completely understand your concern when waiting for a refund.
We can confirm your refund was processed on 23rd June, and the funds were released from our side that day. Any delay in the funds appearing would now be with your bank, so we would recommend contacting them directly to trace the reversed payment.
If there’s anything further we can do to help, please let us know.
