Negative experience: As a long-term customer I feel robbed as we are getting LESS and LESS of what we paying for... Swimming pools, saunas and jacuzzi constantly closed... in some areas closes for 3-4 months... I am canceling my subscription ASAP

Negative experience: I canceled my gym membership in person two months ago. Recently, I discovered two charges from the gym had been made to my bank account after the cancellation. I requested a refund, but the gym claimed that someone had used my card after my membership ended. They said that each time the card was used, their system showed my face, as they had taken my photo on the first day of my membership. I explained that I returned my card when I canceled my membership. The gym only refunded one of the charges and claimed that someone was still using my card. I asked them to review CCTV footage to identify the person using my card, but they told me there was no CCTV. They also said they couldn’t contact the police regarding the unauthorized use of my card. I’ve sent multiple emails to the manager, but they haven't responded. When I requested a complaint form, I was told over the phone that they don’t have one. I’m extremely frustrated and upset with their service.

Negative experience: No very welcoming left stood at the till for 10 minutes refused entry not given any options so went out side to complain by phone call and go through my options the manager was very abrupt and slammed the phone down on me well good luck with that for the future. Went down the road to another gym they couldn’t do enough for me so I bought my self a shorts and tshirt and signed up with them. I think the manager is going to ruin this business but what dose she care as long as she gets her money at the end of the week what is wrong with some people today silly people on a power trip can’t even have a proper conversation how do the job in first place.

Fantastic experience: Total Fitness is a gym for men and women, even though this gym also has a newly opened women's gym. The gym has lots of facilities, men and women's changing rooms with showers ,toilets, hairdryers, and a sauna. The changing rooms also lead to the swimming pools. There are two swimming pools, one large one small. In this area are also a sauna, steam room and a jacuzzi. The gym is on two levels with cardio and weight machines. On the first floor is also a café where you can have a coffee and watch the swimming . Staff are friendly and helpful. A pleasant overall experience.

Negative experience: TERRIBLE GYM. SHOWERS FULL OF BLACK MOLD - SAUNAS ARE FILTHY AND NEVER CLEANED - THEY CONSTANTLY TRIP OFF AND YOU ARE TREATED LIKE DIRT WHEN YIU ASK THEM RO TURN THEM ON. MANAGEMENT IS TERRIBLE. LADY WITH BLACK HAIR SITS TO THE LEFT OF ENTRANCE LIKES TO ARGUE WITH MEMBERS INSTEAD OF SORTING THE PROBLEMS. THEY ARE BEING REPORTED - HYGENE IS HORRENDOUS

Fantastic experience: I signed up to this fitness centre. It has a decent sized pool, even when busy I have been able to use it with ease. Comes with hot tub, sauna and steam room. There is an additional more private sauna in the changing room as well. The gym floor has lots of equipment so you can get a decent workout even during peak hours. The pricing matches the right quality I would say. There is a car park so you can park up near the gym. I tried out a class as well which I think was a good experience. Group settings can be motivational as well for any particular days you don’t feel as motivated to go. However last minute bookings is usually tough as classes get filled so you should book a few days ahead. Since there are a few classes happening you can probably find something coming up soon. There is an additional women’s only gym for an additional cost if you want to have a more quiet space to workout, they have different settings and weights to suit women. I didn’t feel the need to join this gym as well however the option is available.

Mo Kafae 1 year ago

Negative experience: Worst ever Total Fitness in Greater Manchester I’ve been to all the Total Fitness clubs in Greater Manchester that’s why I say it’s the worst ever. Most of the time the kids’ swimming pool is closed with many different reasons and excuses given especially on Saturday. The jacuzzi is often not warm enough and there is lots of strange foam on top of the water. The steam room is cold and every few months they put a note on the steam room door saying ‘out of order l! ‘ The showers are usually cold. The managers look like they don’t care about all these issues. Unfortunately, Total Fitness doesn’t have competition otherwise if there was good competition no one would join this gym with these disadvantages and the high monthly charges.

Linda McKenna 1 year ago

Positive experience: Although I really like the classes and pools , the one thing that keeps letting this gym down is the app. Often it’s difficult to book on popular classes, and by the time the app dashboard lets you in, the spaces have already gone!

Lucas Wegrzyn 1 year ago

Negative experience: Poor gym. I'm heavily disappointed. 1. Missing pegs, locking clips, weight springs on multiple stations. When challenged, they say they replace them every day. Lies. This is a regular problem. People eople just don't complain about it. Or if they do, they are ignored 1a) Insufficient numbers of dumbells, eg. 10, 15kg., Always lags during pm workout. 2. Shower water too hot - i got scalded by the water twice, shorter one for kids are the worst, which is even more concerning for parents with little ones. Complaint made, actions? Zero. 3. Showers floor is dangerously slippery. Literally, no grip to your fooy. Get some flip-flops otherwise you risk hurting yourself badly. 4. Ohh, the staff put on a fire alarm on to kick out everyone from the gym on fri, because it was 7:50pm 5. The gym is open until 10pm, but they kick you out at 9.30pm from saunas and jacuzzi, and swimming pools. Friday, 7.30pm. Is it worthy 64 quid a month?

Fantastic experience: I wanted to enquire about this gym and the facilities so I called up - I spoke to a lovely woman on the phone called Danielle and she was so helpful and offered to give me a tour today which was great. when I got to the gym she was welcoming and was enthusiastic and this encouraged me to join the gym due to the friendliness. I was very pleased with the gym and all facilities it has to offer for an amazing monthly fee. It was great to have Danielle introduce me and join me onto the gym. Mark - a fitness PT was also great and gave me lots of information on 1-1 sessions and was very friendly too!!

Negative experience: The gym has a good location and free parking outside, although the bins in the area are always full and smell bad. Sports equipment is sticky because nobody cleans it. The gym mats are old, and when I did push-ups, my fingers were black as coal. The changing room was neither freshly swabbed out nor disinfected, but only hoovered. I would like to know how often a cleaner wipes lockers inside because it looked awful. I like to play squash with my husband, but the squash racket are broken and without a covering handle. The court is filthy because there is a lot of long hair as well as dust. Despite the fact that the walls have been painted, the ceiling is still leaking somehow. One day the receptionist said that I needed to buy a new racket for myself in a rude tone.That is not what I expected for a hundred pounds per month. By the way, I can afford the same price for training at another gym for six months, but the problem is that I cannot break the contract until July. The main issue is the zone on the first floor. Twice a week we go to the H.I.T. trainings, and I bought new gloves because I can touch the horrible floor. I have noticed stains, which people do expectorate on the floor, and as a result, I caught the flu a few times.

Zhoro Dimitrov 1 year ago

Negative experience: The male toilet, showers and changing room are not clean at all. Toilets smell of piss while the showers are so dirty that the white soap has change its colour to gray. The swimsuit drier has also been broken for more than a month. Oh and let’s not forget someone broke into my locker the other week. Luckily nothing valuable was stolen.

dc00ification 1 year ago

Negative experience: I have sent a formal complaint on 1st of February and I still have not received any reply. In my email, I wrote that there was incident that occurred in the women's changing room at your Total Fitness gym in Whitefield circa at 13:00 on 1st of Feb 2024. My partner (female) and your customer was in the process of undressing when a male member of your maintenance team entered the changing room unexpectedly. He proceeded to stare at my partner, who was naked at the time. Understandably, my partner was extremely distressed by this experience. She immediately left the changing room and reported the incident to the duty manager. However, instead of taking her complaint seriously, he laughed about the situation. This dismissive response is unacceptable. My partner was traumatized by the maintenance worker's intrusion and the duty manager's insensitive reaction. Allowing male staff to enter the women's changing room without sufficient warning ( there was no information on the female changing room doors' or no previous emails from Total fitness ) shows a blatant disregard for your female members' privacy and comfort. And the duty manager's flippant response to my partner's complaint reveals a troubling lack of concern over this significant issue. Situations like this should be investigated thoroughly and offending staff members reprimanded appropriately. I request that you look into this incident immediately. The duty manager should be disciplined for his unprofessional response. Furthermore, procedures must be put in place to ensure something like this never happens again. Female members should feel safe while changing clothes at your facility. If maintenance needs to be performed in the women's locker room, members should be notified well in advance. Protecting your members' privacy should be a top priority. I await your prompt response regarding how this matter will be addressed. At this point apology is not good enough (after many weeks without response to my initial contact with Total Fitness team).

Positive experience: Pool is good size and well maintained, although the floor of the pool could be kept cleaner - it gets a little gritty. Showers are not brilliant, they are very old fashioned on or off, no control of temperature, and could do with modernising.

Rio Kadel 1 year ago

Negative experience: The female staff in the cafe is horrible! Refuses to process the orders and keeping us waiting while she was watching videos on the screen, ignorant, rude. Such a shame because the gym, swimming pool and other staff are bob on but this one is a big discredit to the team. Head up for management!

Positive experience: It is good gym with good facilities. Nice pools. the SAUNA sometimes has issue and out of order. For jacuzzi I can say I prefer a warmer water. But in total I'm satisfied.

Lori B 1 year ago

Positive experience: I don’t have nothing bad to say about the gym. It’s great. I can do all the workout I want there. Changing room are always super spotless. The only issue I have is the fact that we joined Total fitness so I could take my child swimming otherwise I would have joined a different gym. Everytime we go the SMALL pool is shut, they don’t let you know this. So yeah, we just keep paying the membership but my son can’t go swimming half of the time. Very disappointed about this.

Kelly 1 year ago

Negative experience: Overpriced for what you get. The equipment is out of date and most machines you can’t even read what weights you are using. The women’s gym is nothing like as advertised on images. It is often full of teenage kids just hanging about in groups and playing on equipment. I was in there a few weekends ago and there was a family eating a tub of Ben and jerrys while playing on the equipment. It’s an absolute joke. It’s a joke. It’s hard because I have found the staff amazing but I wish they did more to police the use of the facilities because nobody bothers putting weights back and more often than not you have kids using the space as a hang out. If it didn’t have a pool for my daughter I would go to the gym group down the road.

zain t 1 year ago

Negative experience: Poor value for money. A couple years ago it used to be £35 a month with a couple guest passes added often. At the current time it is £50 per person and i am paying that for two memberships , a total of £100. No guest passes, theres always 2-3 machines that are out of order. They have 4 squat racks but only 1 smith machine. With a lot of the hand attachments the rubber has disintegrated. Showers have this brown film on the walls and shower gel dispenser . Some times they put hand sanitiser in the hand wash, makes your hands stink of bleach. Only ever personal trainers in the gym working clients, rarely any free staff that you can ask a quick question. I don’t blame the staff there, they are friendly and always try to help when they can. All in all it does have potential to be a good gym but since covid, the price increases and all the policy changes it has ruined the experience somewhat. If it was £25 a month i could understand, these things can slide given the price, however it is £50 a month. Its not a small amount for a gym membership

Positive experience: Sauna is often not clean, but that's mostly up to members - they do leave even tangerine's peels behind (people are pigs). Jacuzzi has questionable massive foam - this must be sorted immediately as it's really disgusting. Place has an amazing gym equipment and space. Staff is friendly, but they do change a lot.

Positive experience: Decent enough if you just want to train independently. If you're looking for classes you can get to before a 9-5 job - or at lunchtime then look somewhere else, there are basically NONE. No air con in the main gym area which is fun when summer arrives.

chïef 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Extremely well equipped gym with friendly and helpful staff. The pools are amazing and even though the lack the necessary depth for underwater activities such as diving and deep water dipping, they are well worth the membership. Saunas, steam rooms are also maintained very well together with cold showers. Very happy with the membership and would recommend to anyone.

Negative experience: Changed my review from 5 stars to 2 stars. Why would you limit your internet speed to 1 mbps per device? We can’t use our phones for anything in your facilities. We pay for this benefit of internet as well to come and spend a few hours in total fitness, otherwise there are gyms for a quarter of the price that you charge monthly, now NO INTERNET?! Edit: Nobody replied. No one cared. Had a recent test done since my last review. It got even worse. SHAME on you! Totalfitness!

Luca Pacino 3 years ago

Negative experience: I was member of Total Fitness it Whitefield over a year. On Saturday 24.09.2022 I came to cancel my and my wife’s membership, because I couldn’t do it in the app. Spoke with a white male in his 40s in the office section. He couldn’t cancel it in his system, tried to call head office, apparently it was closed, took my number promised to call me on the following Monday. Didn’t call. On Saturday 01.10.2022 I noticed that Total Fitness taken money from my account without authorisation, came to Total Fitness in Whitefield to speak with staff to find out why my memberships are still active. Spoke with young lady named Roxane, asked her to speak with manager of the gym to help me out, manager Zoe wasn’t in the gym. Asked for email address to complaint and Zoe’s surname Roxane didn’t know it. Summary: Can’t be bother attitude is all over this gym, all is good until you need them to do some work. I am disappointed with the service and unprofessional attitude.

If you go when it's busy you may struggle to park but there is an underground car park as well as the one at surface level. There's not kuchen floor space in the gym for stretching, freestyle work outs, yoga etc. But I got on all the machines I wanted when I went.

Positive experience: Staff are nice, place is clean and it’s a nice experience overall. The reason for only 3 stars is due to numerous requests to have the hair dryers in the men’s dressing room repaired and it’s been almost 4 months and nothing has happened…

Rosina Slavova 3 years ago

Positive experience: I have been a member for 5 months and I have just cancelled giving a months notice. I am a young professional without kids doing mainly weightlifting workouts, just to give a bit of a background. Here are the reasons for ending my membership: - not nearly enough enough benches - kids using the weightlifting equipment (not only the occupy it but it’s also dangerous) - extremely hot in the free weights area - zero ventilation - only 1 or two pairs max of dumbbells, they are also always misplaced - only 1 set of cables working properly - the other one is old and rusty and I’ve cut myself on it twice - working hours are short - closing at 9pm on weekdays and 7pm on weekends - the staff kicks you out from the pool areas 30min before closing time. How am I supposed to get a workout and use the pool/sauna facilities when I have work till 6pm like most people. If I cant get to use the sauna and pool why would I be paying over £60 per month? - for me personally it’s too “family friendly”. Changing rooms are full of kids and all benches are taken from mums that have spread their bags everywhere. People without kids also pay to use these facilities. Overall I don’t recommend this gym for young professionals. However I think it’s probably great if you have kids.

Adrianna D 3 years ago

Negative experience: I remember those days when I couldn’t afford this gym and it was sort of like a dream of mine to be a member at some point. Unfortunately when I eventually managed to be one I end up having disappointments after disappointments. It might be a good fitness centre for old people or people with kids, but for someone that have some sort of routine it’s quite hard: - not enough benches, - not enough of dumbbells/weights in general - equipment is always missing and there is no one look after it - I don’t really go for classes but just because there is so many I tried few and they are all based around old people. - equipment is old and some of the cable machines are not working properly - there are screws falling off the benches - first few MONTHS it was almost impossible to fill the water bottle because all the fountains were out of order (plus no water to buy in the shop at the time) - not the cleanest gym in general (for the price you are paying) The only good thing about this gym is swimming area but it also get packed. Conclusion: not a good place for people that mainly lifting because it takes ages to find your equipment. Sorry

Kim G 3 years ago

Negative experience: The worst place to take your child for swimming lessons. You pay 12 quid for 30 minute lesson with between 6-9 kids in a quarter of the pool. You get a new teacher every time and your child will learn nothing. Please look for somewhere else so that your child isn't put off before they even get started. The whole experience is terrible, and run by teenagers

French Farr 3 years ago

Positive experience: I've been a member of this gym since 2016. I love the spin classes and the spin room. The spin class teachers are ace! I've taken advantage of the PT offer just before the pandemic which was really worth it to learn how to use the equipment and use your posture correctly. The facilities are brilliant in the gym. I love the sauna in the female changing rooms. I agree that the plunge pool has been broke for over 2 years and it's really needed after the sauna/steam room use. The place is really clean and the staff are so helpful and friendly. Food and smoothies are good. I don't think it's as family friendly since the revamp. I really liked using the ground floor area whilst my daughter hung out and it doesn't seem to be a family area anymore? Having said that, some class instructors have allowed my daughter to sit at the side whilst I work out. I think overall the gym could be more inclusive for families, parents who struggle for child care and want to work out. The revamp is nice but the new large equipment where the running machines and cross trainers are is just too hot! There's not enough ventilation in the whole gym really and it gets hot quick.

Chris Morriss 3 years ago

Negative experience: Disappointing. Old equipment and it feels like there’s no space in the free weights area upstairs. The area downstairs near the entrance is a bit nicer though. Only reason for 2 stars and not 1 is I haven’t used all the facilities and maybe the pool etc are better. I hope the gym improves and I can revise this review.

john fawcett 4 years ago

Positive experience: I went and tried this with a view to signing up. After going in have to say not impressed. The place has gone down hill a bit since the Web images where taken, paint is peeling off walls in some places. Now don't get me wrong it's not all bad there were workmen working on things so it's not abandoned. Staff were friendly ish didn't go out of their way to help or anything but where friendly enough. Overall this seems like a big box gym more for those who know what they are doing not a newbie. The pool area seemed like it could do with a clean and parts of it were cordoned off... for now will not be signing up maybe go back on a few months see of the works have helped or the staff get friendlier

Fantastic experience: Good selection of free weights and various benches, free weight machines and pulley machines. Lots of aerobic machines, like bikes and cross trainers, a couple of pools, mixed sauna's and steam room with cold plunge pool and showers, there's also a large hydro therapy pool to relax in. There's popular classes free to members and a cafe that sells all the normal stuff and sports drinks.

Positive experience: Great gym with some really top facilities. I've knocked off one star though as some of the equipment doesn't work sometimes and there are times when you turn up and something has been marked out of order. They're having a renovation soon though so hopefully this will improve things and I can add the extra star back on.

Positive experience: Nice complex and clean but actual gym needs new floor and benches in my opinion-though they are renovating soon so maybe it will change. Overall decent gym

Negative experience: Too many rules for children. Can’t use the Jacuzzi, adult only swimming time you need to watch out for. I don’t understand why adults need adult time for both the main pool and the kids pool. Every time I visit, seems to be something out of order. That has started to subside in recent months. Price also went up not long after signing Up by £20 odd quid, no issues but the place seems limited at £80 p/m for families. Perhaps I might try somewhere else come renewal time.
