Paid for next day delivery on a Monday morning, the boots I ordered arrived on Thursday afternoon.

Wasn't too happy about that.

Given how shoddily the physical shops are run, I can't see the online service being anything other than terrible.

Used them a fair few times, always had my items the following day

Never used them online, but their shops are like a jumble sale.

Used them online a few times. Had no problems yet and received deliveries in good time.

Just go to the shops. It's a day out and quite an experience/eye-opener.

Everytime I see Sports Direct I get the image of Mike Ashley in my head, horrible horrible thing to think of.

If they sold Burberry they would be a one stop shop for many yoots dem.

However they do have good bargains re: Asics, and I just picked up a pair of cycle mitts for £6.

Ordered some running shoes and gym shorts from them at about 2pm, next day delivery, turned up about 8am the following day with a MASSIVE free sports direct coffee mug.

No troubles with them at all, my house mate did the same thing, super quick delivery and a free mug, cant say no!

Sportsdirect took over my old Woolies in Stafford, so I use that :-P

It's not a free mug you get, it's a bloody hot tub. The thing is huge.

Disregard my earlier statement about going to the shop, you don't get the mug. And the mug is the best thing about sportsdirect.

Ordered a pair of football boots a few years ago. Worst online shopping experience ever. Took over 2 weeks to arrive and the customer support service is useless. Never using them again, prefer just to walk into the shop instead now.

Used them a few times and have been fine. I suspect people get courier issues and blame sports direct, my courier left a parcel in next doors back garden once instead of mine.

Only issue I had with sports direct was they left one of those security tags on an item so they must have pulled the item from a shop. They said I could return to them or take to a shop so I took to a shop with receipt, shop was fine and also appologetic.
