Easy to access

Easy to access, great deal with enough equipment, the gym that I usually go to is always clean. It would be nice if there are more yoga mats. For me it is a good place.

Really happy with the service

Really happy with the service. I had an issue with my membership after rejoining, but the team were helpful and got everything sorted for me. I’m now looking forward to using the Prescot gym. Thank you for your help! 😊

Disgusting place. Send in the cleaners!

⭐ 1 STAR — DISGUSTING. SEND IN THE CLEANERS.

The cleanliness of this gym is absolutely unacceptable.

The changing rooms are unhygienic, the toilet areas look as though they are barely cleaned, the shower cubicles are disgusting, and the changing-room floors could seriously do with seeing a mop far more often.

It doesn’t stop there. The gym equipment itself frequently looks dirty, with visible sweat marks left behind from previous users. I understand members have a responsibility to wipe equipment down after use, but ultimately PureGym is responsible for maintaining a clean and hygienic environment.

I finally decided enough was enough and went all out by joining David Lloyd instead. Frankly, I’m wondering why I didn’t do it sooner, especially as I had previously been a David Lloyd member elsewhere in England and already knew what a properly maintained health club could be like.

The difference in standards is enormous.

A gym is somewhere people sweat, shower, change and use shared equipment every day. Cleanliness should therefore be one of the absolute basics — not something members have to complain about.

PureGym seriously needs to get a proper cleaning team into this place and raise its standards.

Disgusting place. Send in the cleaners!

Very disappointing CS

Very disappointing experience with PureGym Ashton-under-Lyne.

My Off-Peak membership explicitly included full access on Bank Holidays. However, on the August Bank Holiday, PureGym’s system incorrectly restricted my access, meaning I was unable to use a service that was clearly included in the membership I had paid for. This disrupted my plans and caused unnecessary inconvenience.

I first contacted PureGym by email and waited more than a week without receiving any response. I eventually had to contact them via Instagram to seek help.

The Instagram customer service was equally disappointing. After waiting almost 24 hours for a response, Dylan replied and then expected me to respond within just a few minutes, otherwise the chat would be closed. At the time, I was travelling in Spain and was having dinner, so this was completely unreasonable given that I had already waited almost 24 hours for them.

Two days later, Sam responded at around 7am UK time, again with no consideration of the circumstances or any meaningful attempt to resolve the issue.

Despite the access failure being caused by PureGym’s system, the best resolution offered was only partial compensation.

I have now cancelled my membership. I will also be contacting my bank to request a chargeback, as the service I paid for was not provided as agreed.

Very poor experience from both the system failure and, more importantly, the way PureGym handled my complaint. I expected much better customer service.

Fitness classes are a great way to start…

I’ve been really enjoying the classes at PureGym Hayes, and a huge shoutout to the amazing instructors Zoe, Daniel and Nikki! 🙌 They each bring their own style and energy to the sessions, making every workout challenging, enjoyable and something you genuinely look forward to.

Zoe’s classes are seriously intense and challenging, but in the best possible way! She really pushes you and makes sure you give it your all. You always walk out feeling like you’ve smashed a proper workout! 😅💪

Daniel is always organised and ready to go, with all the equipment set up before the class even starts. His sessions are packed with exercises that target the whole body, so you know you’re getting a proper full-body workout every time. His classes are always so good and definitely leave you feeling it the next day! 😂

And Nikki brings such an amazing vibe to the spin classes! 🚴‍♀️ Her energy and enthusiasm make the sessions so enjoyable, and she also gives really valuable advice on strength training, which is a massive bonus.

Honestly, Zoe, Daniel and Nikki are a credit to PureGym Hayes. Their energy, knowledge and motivation make the classes enjoyable, challenging and something to look forward to. If you’re thinking about joining a class, definitely give them a go — you won’t regret it! 🙌🔥

I struggle with stress and anxiety. I booked onto the mind class with Dominic and I can honestly say it’s the best thing I’ve done. I’m more relaxed! I just wish there were more classes.

Paid for membership but still no access after 4 days

I restarted my PureGym membership after receiving an email inviting me to rejoin and paid the required membership fee. I used an available discount code at checkout, but my membership is still showing as “Cancelled” in the app and my access has not been restored.

It has now been 4 days since payment was taken, and I am still unable to access a service I have paid for.

I tried to contact customer service but could not find a customer service phone number or live chat option. The only available route I could find was email. After contacting Member Services, I initially received a generic automated response explaining how to check my access. I replied with screenshots showing my cancelled membership status and proof of payment, but I have now been waiting for two days without a response or resolution.

It is very disappointing that a straightforward membership and access issue has not been resolved promptly, particularly when payment has already been taken.

I hope PureGym resolves this quickly and restores the membership access I have paid for.
