There is no human interaction
There is no human interaction. It was her first time swimming and there was nobody there to welcome and make her feel comfortable/confidence. After her class we didn't get feedback from the teacher (it was her first time). It all just drop the children, go up, wait and pickup after class. No human interaction at all.

Hi,
Thank you for your review.
We are disappointed to hear your child did not enjoy her lesson.
The human interaction happens between the instructor and the students when they are in the class. As most instructors teach classes back to back, it is not possible to speak to each customer before an after a class. However, the teachers do update customers progress on the home portal so parents/guardians are able to view their child's progress and see what they need to work on.
We also offer one-to-one classes at some locations if your child would prefer a more personalised experience. If you are interested in this option, please speak to a member of our concierge team when you are next in and they will be able to advise further.
Warm Regards

Back to fitness
I was most impressed when I had my induction with Julian. Through a GP referral I am trying to regain movement and strength. I tried all the various gym machines and have received a personal programme to follow. I will then be monitored after four weeks to review. Great service and value for money.

No staff in gym
The gym facilities are good but I am disappointed that there does not seem to be a member of staff present in the gym during the two times I have been there since joining recently (Waddon Leisure centre). I believe this is a health and safety concern and something you should seriously consider addressing.

Good Afternoon James,
Thank you for your review.
I am very sorry to hear that there was no staff present when you attended the Waddon Leisure centre recently. I will pass on your feedback for the attention of the centre manager so he can ensure there is a member of the Fitness Team in the Gym at all times.
Thank you for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Charmaine
Aqua aerobics class
Went to an aqua aerobics class on Thurs 8th Feb and I was very disappointed by the unwelcoming instructor. She was unapproachable and as a new member I was not expecting to have to shout my medical condition across the pool. It would have nice to have a quick chat with new members before the class started.
On a posittive note the class itself was great and I did enjoy the actual workout.

I was misled that my membership for…
I was misled that my membership for Swim doctor at Waddon would cover swimming for practice whenever (subject to space). I have queried this by phone and was informed it would be resolved to align with what I was told and the manager would be in touch. 4 days later, I haven’t heard and still unresolved. Very poor customer service. Very difficult to communicate as can only go through central phone line.

Good Afternoon N,
Thank you for your review.
Upon checking our system and the membership type you have purchased, you have a swimming lessons membership which you would attend each Saturday at 12noon. You would not be required to book this session in each week as you are already booked onto this course for the same day and time each week. So if you attend the centre each Saturday for your lessons, you will be able to attend this class.
Hope this clarifies,
Kind regards,
Charmaine

App is easy to use to book and it’s great value to be able to have a membership for just the school holidays so we can swim as often as we like.
Toilets could always be cleaner!

Great that you have finally replaced the old spin bikes , however the air con in the spin studio is rubbish.
Cleanliness in the toilets is shocking. Need cleaning.

Good Morning Lynn,

I will pass on your lovely feedback for the attention of the centre and also your comments in regards to the air conditioning and the toilets. Through feedback from our cutomers we can identify the areas that we need to improve on.

This would have been a much higher…
This would have been a much higher score had I not received a penalty charge email for a fitness session I attended but was later notified I hadn’t attended and received a £3 fine.
Whilst I appreciate you take this data on customers scanning in using their membership card which in hindsight I get is fairly obvious , it was never fully explained at signup this process is imperative otherwise you may receive a penalty fine. On arrival a member of staff had opened the barrier for me thinking he had recognised me from showing me around the premises prior to signing up a few days prior. Clearly I wish he hadn’t done that and just let me scan in as I was about to do phone in hand. Perhaps this is a simple training issue that can be simply fixed.
Other than that I’m impressed by the facilities and the fitness training was encouraging and professional.

Good Afternoon Oliver,
Thank you for your review.
I am really sorry to hear that you received a penalty fee for an activity you attended at the centre. The member of staff that allowed you access without scanning should have manually marked you as attended so you did not receive a penalty fee or allowed you to scan through the gates using your membership card via the App. I apologise this was not done and I will pass on this feedback to the centre manager so the staff can be reminded to allow the customers to scan through the gates unless they have forgotten their card. If this is the case the staff still need to mark each customer as attended.
Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused during this time.
In regards to the facilities, we are delighted to hear that you are enjoying these and also the fitness training. We hope you continue to enjoy the centre going forward.
Kind regards,
Charmaine
