Overpriced gyms with overused equipment. I've been to many PureGyms and almost every single one has been disappointing. Not worth the price.
Amazing facilities and lots of support to be found for a beginner. Through the app its very easy to sign up to classes and setup exercise plans, making the experience a lot less overwhelming
This is my second summer training here and still they skimp on the air con.The amount of people complaining yet they just ignore them it's like a sweat box .Rude arrogant staff .The owner only responds to positive comments doesn't want to rectify the air con issues. Yet in the advert it says train in a cool air condition gym ???
The Wood Green branch is absolutely abysmal, not a care for their clients, they do not respond to emails and you have to chase them up multiple times and still nothing. Highly unprofessional.
Signed up to the gym 2 weeks ago, tried to organize induction to start gym, however they told me the lifts are not working and would organize for me to go to another branch, since then have not heard a peep from there despite emailing them and calling them multiple times. DO NOT JOIN THIS GYM AT ALL!
Great for the price. However recently classes are being cancelled last minute, and there seems to be a high turnover of instructors leaving which makes you wonder why?
I am not your typical lover of exercise, but that being said I really enjoy going to Pure Gym for a few reasons... 1) I go with my friend. 2) the staff are super friendly and encouraging. 3) all the equipment is well looked after and maintained. 4) it's is the best for monetary value also.

Great help from Stan at Manchester Urban Exchange branch. I had inadvertently set up a different account and he was patient and made sure to look for why my old log in was still inactive. Thanks Stan.

I have dealt with the customer service people at PureGym a few times now and, even though it’s occasionally taken a bit of pushing, they’ve always worked hard to find a solution that works for me. After a recent problem, I didn’t find the solution I was looking for. Then I was transferred to Anja who showed kindness and understanding of my situation and helped me out hugely. Thank you!

Be very careful once you’ve signed up you will be offered multiple times to upgrade for a month for free but it isn’t for free because of how their billing works. They’ll always charge you extra B8 pound £10. £15 so just don’t do it. You complain to them and they just blame on their Bill system which really has nothing to do with what I’m free month should be a free month is a free month i.e. you don’t pay for that month not you don’t pay for that month if you upgrade on the day that your Bill comes out exactly on the same day and then cancel it exactly on the day before your billing ends.

So disappointing with the customer service received as I cancel my membership and still charged me when was cancelled and would not refund me, the treatment I got from then was so rude made me feel like I was an idiot

PureGym’s customer service is an absolute joke and rock bottom. They don't work on weekends, there is no phone support, and email responses take forever.
A little over a week ago, I bought an Off-Peak monthly membership, paid upfront. I ran into access issues at the gym, so I decided to upgrade to a Core membership. That’s when the nightmare began: my account was randomly blocked, and then my membership was completely cancelled—even though I had almost three weeks remaining that I had already paid for.
When I tried to resolve this with customer support, their "solution" was for me to buy a brand new membership again, offering only to reduce the joining fee next month. Not a single word about refunding the money I had already paid!
It feels like an absolute scam—they basically stole £25.99 from me. Avoid this company at all costs!

Very straightforward joining process. Gym is clean and equipment decent. Aircon has been a life saver this summer as well!
