Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 362 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Customers frequently encountered significant issues with orders and products, reporting items never received, severely delayed, or arriving incorrect, damaged, or defective. Customer service was widely criticized for being unhelpful, difficult to reach, and providing misleading information, especially when resolving lost or unfulfilled orders. Delivery service was consistently described as slow and unreliable, with many parcels failing to arrive or being poorly handled by couriers. Conversely, a small portion of people felt satisfied with in-store staff, noting their welcoming attitude and outstanding assistance. Some also found certain products well-priced, arriving in perfect condition, and fitting well, appreciating the size selection.

If I could give 0 stars I 100% would
I recently purchased a pair of Nike TNs for my daughter to wear as school shoes. Unfortunately, the shoes broke after approximately one week of normal use. I returned them to the store the following week expecting the issue to be addressed.

However, the response from staff was extremely disappointing. The staff I dealt with were rude, unhelpful, and appeared clearly uninterested in assisting or resolving the issue. Their attitude and lack of professionalism made the experience particularly frustrating and left me feeling disrespected as a customer.

It was also concerning that the staff appeared to lack an understanding of their obligations under New Zealand’s Consumer Guarantees Act, which requires retailers to provide a remedy when a product is faulty. In this case, the shoes clearly did not meet a reasonable standard of durability.

I would appreciate this matter being reviewed and resolved appropriately.

Ordered a Nike tech tracksuit as two separate items. The trousers have a hole in. Now I have to return them as the picture evidence is not enough.I will either be refunded or the trousers returned to me instead of me sending them back for a replacement. I need to open a new claim to try and return the hoodie. Absolutely disgraceful for the price I paid for the tracksuit. Will never order from them again. First and last experience.

They take orders and keep money as long…

They take orders and keep money as long as they can after shaking the mountain reaching customer service they will say its unwanted delay apologies and then finally they will refund. In the main time they will use your money refund you from others orders. If u don’t get the scam yet welcome to order from them.

waste of time

Like other people have said, they sold me a pair of shoes, then proceeded to cancel my order because they didn’t have said pair of shoes in stock. What bugged me the most was that I had written to them prior to my cancellation to receive some updates on my order, since its status had remained unchanged in some days, and they even told me that everything was fine and they were packaging my shoes. Waste of time

Absolutely shocking

Absolutely shocking .
I thought footlocker was a reputable shop .
My son saved up and placed an order using my account ,
I got an email saying they were delayed he was very excited for them ,
He’s been wanting them since before Christmas.
They emailed me saying I had cancelled the order .
I chatted to them quickly ,
To make sure the error was stopped for them to say :-
It seems this was cancelled due to lack of stock and not because you requested it, that's a typo we have on the cancellation emails .
They are still for sale on the site but have doubled in price !

Cardiff store…

I recently visited the Cardiff store in City centre I asked a lovely lady called Shannon where the junior section was and she was so polite and showed me, I was then handed over to a gentleman called Josh he was so accommodating with what I needed and also was there to show me the other options online that could off be an alternative to what I wanted, My friend also wanted a pair of shoes which he was again really helpful with our needs and what we wanted.I will also just mention there was a lady called Donna who was lovely to talk to and she was talking about her new shoes. Overall had a great experience in store and would return thankyou all for the support.

Never ever will I use this company…

Never ever will I use this company again, ordered trainers in November 2025 - after waiting 3 weeks for delivery they come and were 2 totally different shoes. Iv tried to return the following instructions that were very hard to follow, at the time there was an issue in the supplying returns labels, when I finally got them to the locker for return jan 9th 2026 I sent them the proof, it is now almost MARCH and I still haven’t received my refund, after contacting them and getting the rudest call agent, didn’t listen, spoke over me and raised his voice as I was expressing my concerns, who definitely could not grasp the situation, he informed me that the parcel was not collected by UPS and is still sitting in the locker and that I as the consumer must sort this problem out myself, phone ups and ask for the parcel which obviously cannot be done as Footlocker as a company have to raise the issue with their courier service not me as a consumer. Tried to run back at 12:09 to inform them ups wouldn’t be giving me the parcel and it is their job to follow this up, only to find out that customer service is now closed and I’m still left without a refund. Absolutely terrible behaviour on their behalf and shambles of a company to deal with I will NEVER order from this company again. Worst experience I have ever encountered with customer service.

Don't bother - Phantom stock and cancellations

Absolute joke of a service. Ordered twice on the 20th Feb, and both were cancelled because they sold me stock they didn't actually have. Their "solution" is for me to follow their social media and use a discount code with a million exclusions. My time was wasted and my funds were tied up for nothing. First and last time ordering from Foot Locker UK.

Awaiting refund

They received my returned items on 04/02/26 it’s now 22/02/26 and still no sign of a refund. Horrendous customer service.

Refused to process my refund after return not delivered by courier eventhough I followed their return process and provided evidence, then blamed me saying they wouldn't process the refund as I hadn't followed a company process rule in a hidden EU help page.

I received a completely incorrect item that I did not order and they refused to send me the correct shoe that I actually ordered. My order had someone else's personal information and another stranger also now has my personal contact information and address. When I contacted customer service they told me that although it was their mistake, I need to arrange return of the incorrect product myself and they would withhold a refund until 1-2 weeks after it was received. So disgusting
