Great service

I had a meeting with a really nice chap, Mr Clayton who was really welcoming and chatty. He let me make my own decisions and didn’t push the hard sell at all. I proceeded with the purchase of some advertising at Portsmouth FC.
I received a great design of everything I wanted.
Really great company, would recommend 100%.

Worse company to deal with full of false advertising promises

I thought I would do a more accurate review moving forward one year later about Sporting Ads where I'm not bribed to do a review and be more honest abut my experience.

As a business owner online I recieve a lot of calls daily people trying to sell me things to "Promote" my business.

After constant cold calls from Sporting Ads I decided well I will try and hustle them for some free advertising.

I was then made and appointment buy one of there sales that staff they promised me some free football tickets, and filled me with enough patter for me to consider turning up so I thought why not it might stop them harassing me.

I was met by a small gentleman called Christian who I believe is the head of the organisation and belive me he could sell ice and thats even to an Eskimo.

My intentions from the start was to hustle his organisation and get advertising for free with no intentions of paying a penny.

After a few photos around the football ground and a brief tour we sat down for businesses with my full intentions not to pay a penny and to see if I could hustle them like they was hustling me.

A few sob stories later my advertising is going live in the football stadium gave a name I don't even use and we ready to go to print.

So this is where the fun starts Christian is trying to get cash from me and the excuses stayed for months to keep my advert in the stadium.

There is only so long you can keep excuses running before enough is enough before he realised Toby had hustled him.

This is where it got interesting and made me update this reveiw as hope this helps other bussines they start to threaten with bailiffs and CCJS but they sent me the worse company Kristen Dex who I recorded talking about me as they left the phone off the hook for 16 minutes saying what a rubbish company they are and reading out my emails of me beating every other balliff they sent me.

In a last chance effort had a mediation man on the phone asking for £70 legal fees.

The worse company to deal with and stay well away just look at the reveiws on Google says it all.

Regards
Toby

Great team and service

I had the pleasure of advertising our business (Berkhamsted Scaffolding) at Luton Town Fc. Chris and the team were great from start to finish. The design was great, and the staff were very helpful with any questions I asked. I'd recommend anyone who wants to advertise their business at their favourite/various football ground to get in touch.

I would highly recommend Sporting Ads

I would highly recommend Sporting Ads. Chris and Iona went above in beyond, their customer service was amazing and Chris also gave me advice on my new business, which you don't get very often. I purchased advertising in the Bristol City Stadium and I couldn't be happier with the final results. The board is now up and it looks great. 5-star review for a 5-star service.

Thank you, Chris and Iona, Great job. I look forward to working with you in the future.

Good afternoon Kate,

Thanks for taking the time to review.
Looking at your account I can see your billboard has been up in Bradford since June, but we are waiting on clarification that the surround has been repainted.

I do apologise for the delay with this and thank you for your understanding that the Sporting Ads team are doing what they can to rectify this.

Kind regards,
Sporting Ads

Leeds Rhinos

I have been onboard with the Sporting Ads Team for 3 seasons now. When I first started advertising there was a little teething trouble with the designer (Who no longer works with SA) submitting the wrong design to the sign maker. This was resolved immediately by Christian personally and I couldn't fault the customer service then or now. Really helpful and friendly team. Thank you

Great business with a great leader in…

Great business with a great leader in Chris!

We have recently come on board to advertise at Headingley and the process has been both professional and enjoyable. At no point were we pressurised into a sale, but were given sound advise, backed up by data and live examples.

On top of the professionalism, Chris is a great guy and has managed to make many business introductions and invited us to some quality sporting events which have opened doors for the business.

Thanks for everything so far Chris and Sporting Ads!!

I was looking for a prime advertisement…

I was looking for a prime advertisement at the Portsmouth football ground. Our company was really pleased that Christian and the sporting ads team searched and located a fantastic location around the pitch in grounds They also put together a superb advert with their design team and if we weren't delighted enough, we were given tickets to see a major league game, Liverpool fc vs Southampton fc. I took both my young sons who are both registered blind and we were looked after from start to finish by sporting ads team, including meeting John Barnes, I couldn't say nicer things, the company deserves all the success. Ironically, I rarely have the time to do reviews, but in this case, sporting ads deserves every success they get, Well done guys, you will never know how much that game meant to me and my two sons, thank you so much.

Fantastic Advertising Service!

Christian, Iona, Mike and the team are great! I have recently bought advertising space for my new business at Southampton Football Club and I couldn't be happier! When I went to meet Christian at the ground, he was lovely and made me feel very comfortable, seeing as it was a big commitment for me! Once I had signed up, Mike the designer was in touch with me really quickly and got my design over to me which just looks GREAT! I'm thrilled! The board is now up at the ground and I couldn't be happier! Thanks to the whole team at Sporting Ads for your help and assistance! Highly recommend this company!

marketing boosters !!

I spoke to Christian the CEO and he gave me sound advice with regards to marketing and expanding your brand. I was really amazed with his generosity and sincere desire to see my company do well. I wish him and his company success. If you're considering offline marketing and having your brand reach a large number of people this is the go-to place.
