i have used PureGym for 8mths, my experience has been nothing but positive, the equipment is maintained well, occasionally a piece may be out of order ,but it seems to be repaired quickly.
The general atmosphere in the gym is clean and friendly, with many diverse people there of many different abilities and ages,
i have used a few of the on-line classes, they are very clear in there instructions and aims.
I visit the gym in the early hours and have limited contact with the staff, and they seem friendly,
I cancelled my gym membership today because the gym is consistently overcrowded. Many young people come to the gym only to sit on their phones, even when there isn't enough equipment available for others to use.
There are not enough cable machines, and they are constantly occupied, so I rarely get the chance to use them.
The car park is also limited to 2.5 hours. They have recently introduced new signs stating that even if you register your car, you are not allowed to stay beyond the time limit.
To make matters worse, there has been no hot water in the showers for over a month, so unless you enjoy showering in freezing cold water, it's very unpleasant.
Overall, I no longer feel that the gym provides good value for the membership fee, which is why I decided to cancel my membership.
They change the subscription cancellation process to ensure they can charge you extra. They make it FOR NO LOGICAL REASON that you must stop direct debit 4 days before your next payment, and they altered the day of payment from the 14th of the next month to the 13th of the next month for me (June to July). Stopping me from being able to cancel my direct debit. Terrible, awful company. The frontrunners of those companies that suck at letting you cancel subscription.
Been a member for over 10 years, and never really had an issue the equipment was plentiful, it was relatively tidy, suffers will weights being left out and some inconsiderate with slamming weights down etc, which isn't the gym's fault. I even continued to pay my membership as opposed to freezing it during Lockdown.
However I always judge a company on when things do not go right and in this instance Pure Enfield lost all credibility for me. I was contacted by someone called Ian on Wednesday who advised that my account had been suspended, due to someone using my Pin, to be clear I have never willinging shared my Pin in fact I have a key fob for entrance, but rather than do what civilised people do and speak to the member and discuss the matter my account was suspended. I responded to the email and received no response, I tried emailing the gym directly an additional 2 times with no response I then messaged the members email address who responded that I needed to contact the gym directly who would be happy to help, really??
Anyway be mindful of the lack of customer service and support should you need it. Will be going elsewhere now
Thenku Liv for greatly crafted Strength class, 5star members loved it, all her classes are great, 10/10, today I felt good workout, bring it on want more
They are taking the micky now. The gym in Leicester city is an absolute shambles. Dirty facilities and litter is often left around the gym and even in the showers. There is mould. It’s full of kids who leave it in a state and the staff don’t care. They just sit on their phones.
Paying for the plus membership is pointless because the water machine never works. Then they email you saying that their gym in Thurmaston (Leicester) is no longer accessible with the multi gym membership even though that is the whole point of paying more. I would avoid and go with someone else that has standards. It is only getting progressively worse and they have the cheek to charge you more, take away the ability to access multiple puregyms even when you pay for that access along with having disgustingly poorly run facilities. Avoid at all costs and go somewhere else.
After being a loyal member of PureGym for 10 years, I've had to leave because of targeted harassment by a female personal trainer & failure of duty of care by management at this gym.
I told this PT I thought she had lost weight but she took offence to this compliment & started screaming at me while I was stood outside my shower stall. She blocked my path & cornered me, mocked my voice & mannerisms & aggressively pinched her own stomach to shame my body.
I kept telling her I meant it as a compliment & repeatedly said sorry but she didn't leave me alone. She started shouting lies accusing me of always commenting on her body even though I've only had "hi and bye” & very limited interactions. I had to remind her that she is a PT & she screamed, "What has my job got to do with it?”
That response right there says everything about who she is. Its clear she is operating from a very dark place. People in her job role should never behave like this esp over a compliment. Usually when someone says sorry, a mentally stable person would accept the apology & walk away.
Another girl came up behind her to ask me if I was ok & this PT got so scared & only left me alone once this girl intervened. She did this to me because she thought we were alone. When this witness was speaking to me this PT was walking around in the changing rooms still saying stuff about me & giving me the death stare as I was drying my hair. I have good intentions & would never hurt anyone, so I cant imagine what she would do to someone who has bad intent.
When I told her she lost weight she said “its better than putting it on”. So she is shaming the very people who come to her for help. She made it out as though what I said was the most cruel thing someone can ever say. But now I know it was because she got caught doing a bad thing & needed to get herself out of it by being the victim to the managers.
I seriously feel like if that witness didn't come up this PT would have actually physically hurt me because the more I was saying sorry the angrier she got & she seemed like she was getting out of control. I was about to have a panic attack & wanted to start crying because of how much distress she was causing me.
I cant believe this is the reaction I got just because I told a PT she has lost weight. We look up & admire those who are in job roles like that because we want to look like that too. It was a harmless compliment but she found an issue in it, which says everything about who she is & how she works.
Even when I came in the time after this incident she was giving me evil looks & sent her PT boyfriend to come & eavesdrop on a convo between me & another PT who warned me that they keep a distance from her because of how toxic & volatile she is & that she does this to female PTs too but is good with the male staff. She also has a history of doing this at the Bury New Road branch which is why they had to move her here. When this bully PT saw me talking to this other PT she suddenly began being very friendly & laughing w/ this PT as a tactic to find out what I had said.
She is in a job role like this yet struggles to regulate herself when someone means well. People use the gym for mental health reasons yet she could do this to someone whose mental health is very bad or those who pay her for help & she is fat shaming & having screaming matches with them when no one is around to witness her true colours.
I have had amazing experiences with Tita & Cara. Aiysha & Effy are always super smiley & Jade has been helpful too.
But the last time someone has done this to me was in high school. I feel I need to warn future victims since people like this always have them especially because she has been given the green light for her behaviour so I wouldn’t be surprised if she does this again.
PureGym advocates the whole safe space but have a staff who is doing this to paying members & what makes it worse is that those who should be doing something about it couldn't care less. This gym is a dangerous place because they are making up lies to cover her up. To make it worse the gym didn't bother to ask the witness her side of the story.
The safe space manager told me she is not a PT (its an excuse to allow her to get away with this) but she is on the Cheetham hill instagram & her name is displayed on the PT boards in the gym. The main manager at this branch (not Alex) actually told me she is very good to him (trying to invalidate me) & that I should move elsewhere. Both of these managers could have done alot more but didn’t so it feels like a form of prejudice for people protecting their own
This is scary because she is clearly saying or doing something that is allowing her to get away with such extreme behaviours esp because there is a history of her doing this at another branch. She is a bully. The people who are letting her get away with this are bullies. Treating people like this when your in work is disgusting.
To whoever reads this, please be careful <3
Understood my requirements as a returning member, responded promptly and efficiently
I would recommend Pure Gym Haywards Heath because it is simply the best
Friendly, helpful staff, make you feel welcome. Great range of gym equipment everyone should be able to achieve their personal fitness goals.
Another excellent class at lunch time, 3rd this week. worked so hard, every class is different and I just love the variety of circuits, works every part of the body and the finisher at the end today was tough.

I have a brilliant PT at the Brentford Pure Gym. Her name is Amz and she really motivates me. I now enjoy going to the gym!

I like the location, there is all the equipment I need and I really like the 24 hour access. Showers are a bonus and useful to me.
