Is changing room theft a problem?

Recently joined a fairly new DL. Haven’t got round to buying a padlock for my locker yet but not an issue really as anything valuable like my phone comes to the spa with me. Twice now I’m fairly sure I’ve returned and someone has gone through my bag - items emptied and out in the locker etc. there’s nothing of value in there just dirty workout clothes, old makeup, my handbag is a bit of a dumpling ground.
This has never had happened at any of the cheaper gyms I’ve been at where most people just hang their bags up on the pegs in the changing room.

Court Booking Mistake

Guys how does it work to book a court?? And to book it with someone specific you’ll play with. I’ve never booked one before but I have it on my membership. However this morning I got a booking emailing saying someone booked a court to play with me at a club close to Liverpool. Only problem is I live in Barcelona. I obviously did not go but would I get some sort of penalty etc for not flying to Liverpool?
And like how was he able to add ME to the booking even though I don’t know him.

Newcastle or Sunderland for visit with baby?

We’re looking to break up a road trip from midlands to Scotland and thought we could stop off for a swim and dinner at DL. On the way down we went to Newcastle and while it was nice for a sauna for us, there wasn’t a kids pool and the kids restaurant area was small with eg no soft play. Is the one at Sunderland any better?

Why Do So Many People Skip Showering Before Using Pools and Spas?

I’ve always wondered this…

Why do so many people skip showering before getting into a swimming pool or jacuzzi, and why do so many leave the sauna or steam room and walk straight into the pool without rinsing off first?

Maybe I’m overly conscious of hygiene, but surely the whole point of the showers is to remove sweat, body oils, deodorant, fake tan, lotions, cosmetics, hair products and anything else before getting into the shared water?

Likewise, after sitting in a sauna or steam room, you’re covered in sweat. Why wouldn’t you rinse that off before
entering the pool or jacuzzi?

Is this a cultural thing? A lack of awareness? Or do most people just not think about it?

Genuinely curious because every time I visit a spa or leisure centre, I seem to be in the minority using the showers.

The state of the Dartford changing rooms this evening

Honestly shocked at the lack of respect from other members. I'm tempted to make Sidcup my home gym and just drive a little bit further. No Spa Retreat but I've never, ever, seen anything like this there. Always clean and everyone's respectful.

Not to mention the empty drinks bottles and shampoo bottles just thrown on the floors of the showers. Rubbish left in lockers. It beggars belief that people can just have zero respect for a space they're paying to enjoy.

I thought this was supposed to be a premium club??

I thought I'd reach out to my local David Lloyd club for quotes and details about what they offer. I filled out an online form and got a call back and an email with the membership price details.

They have since called me every single day, twice a day. It's been a week and this is still going on!

At first I couldn't pick up as they were calling during working hours, but then they kept calling, and I just got put off by the behaviour.

I thought this was supposed to be a premium club, but their chasing and badgering behaviour is giving me more of a scam feel.

Is this usual for them?

App login - ‘membership number expired’

Just had a notification for a class booking cancellation tried to get on the app to book and it has logged me out citing that my membership number has expired. Has anyone had similar?

I tried to login to app this morning too and wouldn’t load.

Membership

Can i set my home gym as a higher tier gym even if id rarely, if ever visit it. Due to me travelling around for work alot and would like access to the higher tiers

For example. My nearest/most used david lloyds is a tier 5. I would like to set my home gym as Tier 2 gym but would only get to visit it on average 3 weeks a year. Would this cause me any problems as i would mainly be visiting a lower tier gym

Changing clubs - Speke

I’m a platinum member for Aberdeen. I am moving to Liverpool and can see I have access to Knowsley but Speke is more convenient. I’m on a friends & family discount for Aberdeen - assuming this wouldn’t carry over to Speke but does anyone know how much it is for full membership at Speke? Also, as a couple how much it would be?

Pass on Apple Watch?

My husband and I just joined David Lloyd and I can’t get my membership pass to show on my Apple Watch. I’m sure we were told that this was possible before we joined but I can’t see how to make it happen.

Has anyone got this to work?

Does anyone at Network Rail use GymFlex for David Lloyd? Can you get a couple membership?

Hi everyone,
I’m due to start at Network Rail soon and I’m trying to work out whether it’s worth waiting to join David Lloyd through the employee benefits.
I have already been quoted £250/month for a single membership or £400/month for a couple membership directly by David Lloyd Milton Keynes on a 12-month contract.
I understand that Network Rail offers GymFlex, but I can’t see the prices until my benefits are activated.
I have a few questions:
Is David Lloyd Milton Keynes available through Network Rail’s GymFlex?
Can you get a couple/joint membership through GymFlex, or is it only for individual memberships?
Roughly how much do you pay through GymFlex compared with joining directly?
Would you recommend waiting until I start before signing up?
Thanks in advance!

David Lloyd's Prices?

Hi guys does anyone know what the current price list is for David Lloyd memberships? Tried calling them and didn't get through but I know from experience they don't usually give out the membership prices over the phone either but insist on a tour and discussion (this was the case when I enquired at a different branch!).

Save me the hassle pls 🙏 genuinely keen on joining but just want to know

Edit: this is for Manchester Trafford Centre!

Has anyone successfully cancelled David Lloyd within the 14 day cooling off period?

Has anyone successfully cancelled a David Lloyd membership within the 14 day cooling-off period?

I’m considering joining on the 3-month option. I’ve already had a trial day and liked the facilities, but it was quite busy, so I’m not 100% sure yet whether it would be worth it yet.

They said I’d be able to cancel within the 14-day cooling-off period if I didn’t like it, but I’ve heard mixed things about David Lloyd being difficult to cancel with, so I’m just wondering how true that actually is.

I’d have to pay £230 upfront (first month and joining fee) so if I didn’t like it it’s quite a gamble if I’m not going to get any of that money back.

Has anyone actually cancelled within the 14 days? Was it straightforward? Did you do it through the app/email/club directly, and were you refunded?

Thanks!

Reduced facilities - membership cancellation?

I started my 12-month David Lloyd gym membership in Feb. Since mid May, they closed the swimming pool for maintenance. There is no timeline for when it will return. I use the gym primarily for this swimming pool. They've offered 50% discount for June, and 25% for every month thereafter until the pool is back.

When I complained and asked for a membership cancellation, they offered a "complimentary freeze". I pointed out that their contract says you can end your membership early if they significantly reduce the facilities at your club. They responded that it is a 'temporary' closure, not a permanent one, so that clause doesn't stand. I argue an indefinite closure is significant and not a standard temporary closure.

I don't really want the freeze - it just extends my 12-month contract end date with them, and means I have to pay a premium for short-term pool membership elsewhere for an unknown period of time.

Has anyone else had experience with this, and been successful with ending their membership early due to reduced facilities?

Thanks! :)
