Barnsley Gymgroup In all the years ive been training, Never have I ever seen a badly run gym like this one, Complaints procedures dont exist, I know (ive tried) Managers, Area managers, Head office wont even respond to you, Even some of the PT's complain about how bad management is, Ive seen an exodus of people leaving because quite a few have got £100 fines for not logging their car in when visiting, (when they had). Car park at the weekend is a nightmare, Ive seen staff rolling in at 9.45am to unlock it instead of the 8am opening. Lifting is rife, a lot locker doors are bent in half from people breaking into them. The toilets ar disgusting and been out of order for weeks as the stench is terrible, Theres no music, No atmosphere and now hardly any people, as most have left and gone to the other big gym in town, (which is cheaper and much much better) The only people that are using it are not the type you would want to train alongside or associate with. I would advise anybody not to use this place OR let your kids use it, Its the most unfriendliest place ive ever come across with some very unsavory characters in it. Just look at some review sites on this place before you make your mind up and you.ll see what i mean

Residents live beneath the gym and due to poor acoustics from ceiling and walls the thuds travels upwards to resident flats which impacts their health the thuds are above WHO sound levels not sure how this premise got approved by the council at the detriment of affordable housing

I am honestly shocked at my recent experience at The Gym Group due to the aggressive behavior of the instructor called Cindya and no logic behind everything else. Actually I was asked to leave the gym, as somehow I disturbed Cindya from doing her job (I absolutely have no clue how) while I was 10 meters far from her in the corner jumping on my jumping rope. I was shouted at, I was ran at, she called a manager. I was in the gym for 20 minutes only. I did not even look at her. Shock!! Seems like I am not the first one facing issues with the stuff there.

They trick some of there customers, not all of course, but some are denied access (codes simply don't work) and all attempts to contact are ignored. Likely this is how they keep their facilities less busy than competitors, but be certain, they do indeed do this. Of course losing a months membership is not worth the hassle of pursuing the matter , which is what they count on. Any company which does this is ethically reprehensible, but the prices are okay so customers overlook it. If you are bothered by it, choose another gym.

the gym's only been opened for few months (streatham), very crowded, too many young kids, changing room to small, toilets dirty most of the time, not enough lockers and quite a few are already without door or lock is broken. Although there is plenty equipment, machines are so close to each other you need to be careful when you walk. On the positive..... not expensive and lots of machines. Will I be going for long ? don't think so would I recommend it? NO

You can’t just go in ask a reception for information or price... because there is no reception like other gyms. The entrance door looks like an airport security check in LA airport :)) you need to have special pass code to enter and when you enter the password the circle door opens and you go in to the box (only one person) then the door closes behind you and you have to wait for 5 seconds then front door will open and you are in. Ok let’s say that’s for security but the thing is you don’t expect to see another pass code right… WRONG whenever you want to go to toilet or bathroom or changing room you have to type your pass code. If you are still happy to go with The Gym Group just keep that in mind if you’re inside and forget your pass code and you really need to use a toilet you’re f****ed :)).
