Please avoid
October 5, 2018

Ordered football boots for my son with premium delivery, a week later no boots showing up even after an email to ask what had happened, no reply to email, called them said they would send out and refund shipping, nearly a week later no boots and no refund for shipping, called again same thing... they don't know what's happened... I have asked for a refund, but I have a horrible feeling they are in trouble and we will never see the boots or the £70 again. Avoid please!

Faulty shoes and no refund
September 21, 2018

Pro direct sport sent me incorrect shoe size trainer for my son and also wrong model. Asked for refund and had been told to pay for postage initially then will be refunded. Waiting over 3 weeks with numerous phone calls they have refunded part of the money. I will not buy from them again and its disgusting that they can keep my money for sending faulty item to customers. Shame on you

Ordered & paid for some boots in August. They cancelled my order without informing me & have STILL GOT MY MONEY! I've called 4 times & each time (after being on hold for half an hour) am told the refund will be "transferred today". 3 weeks later: STILL NO REFUND. I suspect they are in financial difficulty.

Appalling service
September 15, 2018

Ordered a Man City shirt for my son on a Monday with next day delivery, so he could wear it to a home game. Was away with work for a week and came back Saturday morning to find it still hadn't arrived. They had e-mailed on Friday night to say it was a payment error or some other kind of technical glitch. Avoid, avoid, avoid!

It is clearly evident that this company have grown too big too fast. Cant deliver Saturday anymore, no customer care, broken promises of managers calling back. Took my payment, refused to ship goods unless I sent copy of bank statement? GDPR. Unable to speak to their dept whom handles this. I've used this company for years but it is sadly time to go elsewhere - will be using Nike.com direct from now on. Professional, trustworthy, and have an infrastructure to cope with volumes of sales

Abysmal
September 7, 2018

Been waiting 3 weeks for a pair of boots. After phoning them twice and waiting 20 minutes, I have been told it will be another week. Even though I paid extra for next day delivery. Still not received anything. Would not go near this company again. Ludicrous.

Disgraceful
September 5, 2018

Brutal company. Ordered boots over a week ago and had to write to them to ask about my order. I found out that after placing the order and paying for the boots, they hadn't them in stock and won't be again even after taking my payment? Won't be ordering from here again! 10 working days to refund me as well...

Service failure
August 26, 2018

Hi there
This wld probably be the last time i am sending a message to you guys. I placed an order for a pair of Pantofola soccer boots online on 19 Aug 2018 Sunday and got an email from Pro Direct that the item had been despatched. However, I have not had any response from Pro Direct despite sending several emails and calling your customer service hotline multiple times regarding the whereabouts of my goods. Worst of all, I have not received my goods till date, not even a tracking number. All the website has been showing since 19 Aug was that "Carriage to be confirmed". It was indeed appalling that a big company like yours have such poor or zero response despite your good effort in marketing sports porducts online. It is very costly to call UK from Singapore and I was put on hold for nearly 15min every time I called and no one bothered to pick up the phone. It has never been like this several years ago when I ordered 2 pairs of shoes and it arrived promptly without having to chase PDS for it.
I am very disappointed and sorry to say that if I don't hear from you guys within the next 24hrs, I wld proceed to lodge complaint to the Ombudsman association.
Thank you to treat this complaint seriously from a returning customer who valued your good service and wld expect consistency in your service level.
Look forward to hear from you soon.

Regards
Gavin

They used to be a great company however some bright spark upgraded their website to joke status
Avoid, you will spend loads of time selecting what you want from "what is available" to find it is not available or will never be dispatched

Worst service ever
August 7, 2018

Bought a pair of running shorts that were on stock last 26th of July. They were supposed to be delivered on the 29th. At least it's what the website said. Well no email from them yet. I've sent 5 already and won't get a response. Now trying to cancel the order and not sure if I'll be lucky as this looks like F scam. Avoid this company please.

Terrible service
July 24, 2018

Im now on to day 21 waiting for my delivery to even be despatched. I got an email 13 days saying it was being sorted. I phoned 10 days ago and today. Both times I was told theyd be despatched in the next 48hours and Id be refunded my delivery charge. Which hasnt happened. I strongly advise looking else where.

Avoid!
July 20, 2018

If I could this company give zero stars, I would. Customer service - well it isnt. They have no respect for their customers time or money. They took money out of my account without sending the order. Many, many attempts to chase them with average phone queue of 29 minutes average. Avoid calling near closing as they cut you off even if your in the phone queue. Yes the air was blue. So unprofessional.
Ordered over 16 days ago, not advised at time of booking they were out of stock. I had to chase THEM regularly to find out why my order is late. Not that apologetic. No communication at all from them. When you get through they fob you off and assure you they will send to you urgently, I was told twice it was being sent next day delivery. Still waiting... Shocking experience. Never again.

Communication non existent. Been waiting two weeks for an email confirming my order and giving an approximate delivery time. Theyve taken my money no problem. Sent two emails, no response. Ive used other sports sites and they email as soon as I ordered and its sent the next day. Whats their problem? If youre busy thats a good thing - take on more staff or you wont be busy for long.
