Sam from the company

Sam from the company , sent me an email ask what I thought about the product and the delivery.

There only a small company and it's nice that they adopt same a personable approach.

Thoroughly recommend Gym Sets Limited. The kettle bell I bought was good quality and a good price.

Definitely avoid / scammers

Avoid. I ordered 2 kettlebells with a delivery date within 4 working days. They didnt arrive and after contacting the company I was told that they where on order with a dispatch date in a months time. Despite telling me otherwise I received no correspondence from them telling me about the this delay and if I hadnt contacted them I would still be none the wiser. I have now sent three emails clearly requesting cancellation of my order and a full refund. In response I have received emails which appear to be stalling my request, offering me a credit note, future discount etc.. if I continue with my order. I have never experienced anything like this previously and there seems something very wrong with the way this company does business. I will definitely not be going anywhere near them again in the future and I only wish I had seen their reviews before I ordered from them. If I do not receive a full refund I will be contacting trading standards over the matter and pursuing my money through small claims court. Please see a copy of their email below (in response to my third request to be refunded) :-
---------

Thank you for getting back to me. I completely understand, and I can certainly help you get this resolved.

Before I proceed with the full cancellation, I wanted to check if either of these alternatives might work for you instead:

A 15% partial refund: If you wish to continue with your order, we can issue a 15% partial refund back to your original payment method.

A full store credit conversion: If there is another item you might want from our shop instead, we can convert your full order amount into store credit so you can easily choose an alternative

Full swap of ordered items to anything you like that we can send over instead.

If you would still prefer to go ahead with the complete cancellation and a full refund, just let me know and I will get that processed for you straight away!

Warm wishes,

Bernice

Seriously are these people deluded. They're asking for me to change my review to 5 stars because theyve been so good to cancel my order and refund my money finally. Unbelievable- dont go near everyone. Seriously, this is the worst experience ive ever had purchasing something on line. Avoid at all costs.

Don’t order unless you want hassle !!

After reading all the reviews of this company it appears I have now fallen subject to the same
Only a partial delivery with items missing.
You then try and contact the company who state the order will be completed once the goods arrive in the wharehouse !?! ( surely if the goods are not available then you shouldn’t sell them with a delivery date of 2-4 days !! )

I have now lost contact with the team and no one answers emails etc

I am still
Trying and hopeful that I will receive the delivery but after reading the reviews I am doubtful I will get anything back other than the usual review feedback telling us all that our feedback is importantly to them !?

Really ???

Hi Robin,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

Your case is currently being reviewed by our internal team, and we've been working to provide the most up-to-date information on the outstanding items. We'll continue to keep you updated until your order has been fully resolved.

Thank you for your patience, and we appreciate the opportunity to put this right.

Kind regards,

Not Recommended

I cancelled my order before it was dispatched. The company eventually refunded me but deducted an unnecessary amount in payment processing/cancellation fees. This wasn’t something I’d expect from a UK online retailer, and it has put me off buying from them and I’d strongly recommend everyone else proceed with caution. I can’t comment on the quality of the product because it never arrived, but my experience of the cancellation process means I won’t purchase from them again. Sometimes it’s worth paying a little bit more for a reputable brand / company and it’s clear from their poor reviews they are best avoided
