Setting a junior membership up was so stressful on the Web. I called the number and James Gough couldn't have been anymore helpful. I was on the wrong plan for my son and he sorted it all out for us there and then. Thanks James, I probably would have cancelled if it wasn't for you being super helpful and supportive. 👌

Took over the gym we have memberships for, utterly awful service. Couldn't link my account with the app, management at the Gateshead International Stadium were so bad that they booked in a remodel at the same time they were hosting private GCSE exams - workmen drilling and insane noise levels whilst private bookers are taking exams. Just shows you that they think more about money than the people who are booking their facilities. Couldn't even access the place and the customer service on the phone was not much better. Happy to take your money and provide little to nothing for it!

I’m having to write this due to false expectations and promised callbacks not made and me having to chase up an activity we usually play there every Tuesday night.
Just not good at all. You can blame the takeover or system bookings, block bookings etc but realistically really, this should have been preplanned and sorted before as it’s been 15 days since the takeover.

The worst customer service
The worst customer service! And just an all round joke!
I pay for swimming lessons and have done for years now with go gateshead, I was told better are taking over and the only change will be the name on my direct debit.. only that's not the case better have taken away the free swim for one adult with child participating in lessons which was always free with the price increase, so now we don't get this and only my child gets free swimming but isn't allowed to swim unattended and I now need to pay an extra £5 to swim with him! I've email and tried to make contact on numerous occasions to find out what's going on and no one gets back to me, I had emails saying I'd re joined at a different centre then another email saying sorry I'm leaving but no one seems to no what's going on!

There were some teething troubles.
There were some teething troubles with getting into the centre, with the new QR code barrier, otherwise, no difference. I found the app a bit difficult to navigate. I was told I had to activate it, but couldn't find any activate button other than a tiny little link which seemed to link to a password change request?

TV option on exercise machines not working.
TV option on exercise machines (cross-trainers, treadmills and bikes) does not work. No internet/ariel connection. This has been a problem for years. It was occasionally fixed only to reoccur soon afterwards. It needs fixing properly.
