Payment

I have been a member of puregym for 2 years and never missed a payment. So my payment comes out through recurring card payments and because i have a new card coming my payment got declined. Ive been working away for a couple of days so thought i would sort it out when i got home and when i clicked on my emails my membership has been cancelled. It had been 2 days 🤬

PureGym Charlton- Melvyn, great addition to the team!

PureGym, Charlton London.
I have recently been attending Hybrid Classes conducted by Melvyn, one of the newer trainers at the gym. The classes have been exceptional. I have definitely seen a marked difference in my fitness level and physique. Melvyn is a very intuitive trainer, who offers individual attention to each class participant, not only on a physical level, but on a holistic level too. Melvyn, very kindly offers advice on our nutritional needs which has been invaluable. Since attending his classes, my mindset and approach to training has definitely improved. Melvyn is a great addition to the team.

The worst gym organisation I've ever joined

The worst gym organisation I've ever dealt with. When I signed up I informed with i use a walking stick and may need to use the disable access doors, I was informed email them before I could start my membership, which I did twice but had no contact from them (apart from the automated response email acknowledgement of my email) and trying to contact them is a nightmare and their app is also the worst app I've ever come across. I wish I haf never left JD gym now and looks like im out of pocket of the joining fee and first months membership because no responses to my email so I have to stop the DD with my bank.

Mark is super helpful, a credit to Pure gym

I Was really pleased to meet Mark this morning , he was at Droitwich gym , helping out , normally based at Redditch.
He was so friendly & helpful , gave me good advice about different pieces of equipment, unfamiliar to me , along with general exercises, & dietary input .
I wanted to pay him for his time , but he was just happy to assist me , what a star .
I wish him well with his boxing career 🥊.

Always a welcoming gym where I can work out at my own pace. Friendly, well looked after Gym. It's clean and the membership price is amazing value. Also, love the showers there they have disabled access. The Gym is clean. There's cleaners always going around making sure the equipment is tidy and free of dust. The only thing is the hair dryer turns off after 15 seconds, so can't use it to dry my hair.

Hi Jovita, thanks for leaving us this review. We are sorry to see this is 1 star.

We are sorry to hear you have received a parking fine whilst visiting this gym. We can only go by what is advertised on the gyms web page - *Parking restrictions may apply. Please check in the car park before you enter the gym. PureGym is not responsible for any parking fines. 

The car park is operated by a third party company in which we do not have any affiliation with. Therefore, we are unfortunately unable to cancel such tickets. Information regarding parking is available on the home page of any PureGym which offers parking. The correct parking procedures must be followed, to avoid a parking ticket. We would always advise that you appeal the fine and explain the circumstances. If you get in touch with Member Services, we can also provide you with an appeal document which will be an official letter from PureGym Head Office, stating that you are a member of PureGym and your attendance log for the date in question, will also be provided as proof to show you were in the gym. If your appeal is rejected, we would suggest submitting a case with POPLA. POPLA are an independent appeals process which works with the Ombudsman Service. They investigate whether this fine was issued correctly in accordance with the terms and condition of the car park; whilst reviewing evidence provided in the appeal. On the rejection notice, there should be a 10-digit verification code, and you will then be able to submit an appeal with POPLA via their website: http://www.popla.co.uk/poplaappealprocess. Although we cannot guarantee they will cancel the fine, we do hope for a positive outcome.

Thanks, PureGym.

Russell Tickner - Personal Trainer

Whilst I’m used to a gym environment, considering using a personal trainer was initially a little daunting as I was concerned as to whether the exercises given to me would reflect my age (nearly 66) and experience. Russell has a wealth of knowledge in exercise and fitness and treats each person as an individual taking account of their age, experience and current level of fitness. I was asked about any ailments or issues that I had when I started my sessions and he tailors the sessions to take account of these things. He’s calm and considerate throughout the sessions and extremely encouraging. I would 100% recommend Russell to anyone wanting to improve their fitness and mobility.
