Very easy to join ...

Very easy to join and make first payment. I looked at the off peak, but it didn't suit me so I went for the 24/7 access. Price is very competitive compared to other brands who charge 3 times as much.

Terrible gym

Since when has a gym that advertises itself as open 24/7 been closed over Christmas.Travelled up to visit my mother in law like we usually do and it was closed.It even let me get a day pass on line with no mention of it.When I tried to contact someone they couldn’t actually answer the question apart from the fact that they said there staff were having a well earned break to spend time with their families which I found ridiculous as the gym hasn’t got any staff in it most of the time anyway.They just kept passing the buck trying to offer me a free day pass and not wanting to see the point i was making.Now isn’t that false advertising?

Hi Ian. Thanks for taking the time to leave this rating, but I'm sorry to see it's 1 star. We do apologise for any inconvenience caused on your visit.

We adjusted our opening hours over the festive period to give our staff some much needed time off with their families.
Whilst we do usually operate your gyms with “unstaffed hours” throughout the year we have a huge team behind the scenes ensuring our members are safe in our gyms, they need time off too!

All gyms specific opening hours would be displayed inside your gyms during this time.
Any unused Day passes during this time can be re-booked with our Member Services team. To re-book you can reach out to them via email or socials. Thanks, PureGym

Poor conditions

I’m paying for a membership to use both the Poole and Bournemouth gym.

The standards in Poole gym have dropped significantly over the past year. Firstly, there is only one leg press machine, a fundamental piece of equipment to many people’s workouts. This machine has been broken for months and therefore I have had to keep my membership to access Bournemouth gym when I am wishing to use such equipment. Furthermore, the cleanliness of Poole gym is quite grim. The ladies toilets have a foul smell, especially coming from the sinks which are quite visibly always dirty. There is constantly a pool of water in the showers, and I know of an incident where a girl slipped down the steps in the shower due to such conditions.

The cleanliness of the Bournemouth gym toilets is also not the greatest, accompanied by faulty taps and toilet doors which don’t close.

I really dislike to say such negative things, but I no longer get enough use from the gym for what I am paying. Due to the lack of standards it is really less appealing to visit a PureGym and I am looking for an alternative.

Hi there - Thanks for taking the time to leave this review, we always appreciate and take on board member feedback. We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. We would like to assure you that we are reviewing feedback and will ensure this is addressed in club. Staff do undertake regular maintenance checks and work hard with our equipment providers to ensure that our equipment is fixed as soon as possible, if any should be broken. We are equally as disappointed when this happens and sometimes need to wait on engineers but will have all equipment in full working order as soon as is safely possible. If you have any concerns about equipment, please notify staff on site as soon as you can. Thanks, PureGym

Rejoining was a mistake

Rejoined, picked a squat rack to do my rehab, 5mins later confronted by another member who claimed this was his kit. Turns out 3x pieces of kit in gym were his. He then spent 20mins stretching not using any of the kit but not allowing anyone else to either.

Equipment was Dated

Equipment was dated, pins and hinges showing rust and very stiff to move. No water stations unless you wish to pay. V equipment did not connect to HR chest strap.
