    Well I placed an order with them on the 22nd at 10am and apart from the automatic acknowledgement of the order have not heard anything since. I do realise its the holiday season but placed an order with Wiggle yesterday and items dispatched today. Also money taken within a day of my order with SportsDirect.

    I had a look on their facebook page as well. I've stacked up about 100 EUR worth of clothing, but the reviews are ALL negative. Poor people genuinely unhappy with their service, replying with how bad it is to every post made by SportsDirect on their FB page.

    Perhaps the Irish service is better than in the UK? Or is it all under the same branch?

    You're hardly gonna post to their facebook if everythings ok. Its only the disgruntled people that will be on there commenting.

    Used them 5 or 6 times in the last few years, no problems. Last order was 2-3wks ago, arrived in like 4 days. Comfy boots too, well chuffed.

    ...slight aside....

    SportsWorld in Heatons seem to be the Irish version of a b&m SportsDirect...

    I was in the Ballincollig store today. They have Umbro football/rugby boots @ half price 'til Jan 4th

    Their site is down...

    Prices look amazing. However, never used this online store before.

    Reviews don't look appetizing!

    Anyone here with personal experience?

    Check the product description before you buy. Even the brand names can be a polyester mix,dunno if they're made especially or are rebranded but would expect some of the products to be 100% cotton at least.

    Code worked, cheers OP.


  • Registered Users Posts: 725 ✭✭✭Moyglish


    Just placed my first order there, well over €400! Nice find OP, thanks! :D

    I also got charged €7 for delivery, despite the website saying orders over €100 would only be charged €1.

    Anyone have any success in getting the excess delivery fees refunded?

    Btw, can anyone confirm that the goods are definitely coming from the UK? I won't have to pay any customs will I?

    Thanks all! :)

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭dajaffa


    Never had a problem with them bar sometimes slow dispatch. A pair of boots cane with studs missing and they were very quick to send them on separately.

    Hotmail is Outlook now I think.
    Get emails from them on an Outlook account.

    My last two orders, both within last three weeks, I got no dispatched email, and on both occasions when I logged on to the SD website to check status of order after 4days, both times it said, awaiting pickup by courier, despite both orders been delivered to me later the same days.

    I've been getting things for over two years and never had an issue.

    RE: Sizes.. If you have a SportsWorld near you check out sizes there it is the same company.

    If i'd have known then as My brother got me a pair of these shoes in Heatons in NI but were a tight fit :( but heading back after New Year.

    But i see a hell of a lot cheaper than in store as were £60 1/2 price down to £30 compared to £23.00/€27.60 even before the discount.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,443 ✭✭✭ams


    I have emailed them re the overcharge on the delivery (ie being charged E7 instead of E1) - they came back and said they were not going to refund me but have responded with a link to the delivery charge information on the website and a screenshot of same.

    Update
    - they have agreed to refund the difference:
    Please be advised on this occasion I have refunded the extra charged for the delivery, however this has since changed and should now show correct. We do not have any offers on at this point of delivery.
    However it is still showing as 1e for over 100 here so beware:

    Same as that, current order is in that state, but if you click track your order it brings you to the Dhl site and that has latest status on delivery

    My current order is still saying that and it has been delivered this morning😄


  • Registered Users Posts: 378 ✭✭Einstein?


    I clicked on track my order, DHL pops up and it says

    Shipment information received, 31st Dec

    Order placed on 28th Dec.

    Do they deliver on Weekends does anybody know? Also do they call the phone number provided? I've placed my work address for delivery and not sure if there's gonna be porters available to collect.


  • Moderators, Regional South East Moderators Posts: 9,033 Mod ✭✭✭✭Aquos76


    Well they use DHL and I know down here in Waterford DHL don't tend to deliver at weekends, also, regarding calling beforehand, that depends on the driver, I sometimes get a call, but sometimes I don't.
