### 1/5 — Mrs Valentine

*2023-06-14, version 106.58.2*

After finding myself logged out of the App and unable to get back in despite repeatedly resetting the password, I am having  to ask centre staff to manually book me only classes, or use the website. After calling into Skyliner last week again,  the staff could still not log me in. It has been so frustrating I have  considered cancelling my membership. I need an App that is quick and easy to use so I can book classes and cancel if necessary in good time. Please help if you can. Thank you

### 1/5 — Bookings

*2023-04-18, version 106.33*

The app is not allowing me to book anything and customer services can not delete it so I can rebook

### 1/5 — Mrs Gull

*2023-02-23, version 5.94*

Terrible; App hopeless, the swimming timetable online was wrong . Thought this was supposed to be a public service but it’s not.

### 1/5 — Mr

*2022-10-09, version 5.94*

What a rubbish app. So many errors and user interface is very poor.  Doesn’t display fully on an i-phone either!

### 1/5 — Mrs W

*2022-09-25, version 5.94*

How many times do I need to put my emails address in and phone number?! 3 times is too many it’s supposed to be a quick process but takes 5 mins to book a swim session!!

### 1/5 — Mrs Jackie Webb

*2022-05-30, version 5.94*

I love the Kingfisher Sudbury and it’s wonderful staff BUT your app and booking system now is so stressful and seldom works as it should. Please do something !
I spent one and a half hours just booking x2 grandchildren in. My young tech wizard children say the same !
My point is proved. Can’t send this review as 20 Nick names rejected!

### 1/5 — Am so missing paying on the door

*2022-03-21, version 5.69*

Am so missing paying on the door

### 1/5 — Review

*2022-03-16, version 5.69*

Big problems still!
Every time I want to book a swim, card issues that means a call every time! Should be sorted asap ,

### 3/5 — Classes

*2022-03-14, version 5.69*

Things are getting back, but it’s not the same! I used to do a HIIT class on Thursday at 5 but the instructor is not with you now I don’t think. Covid has a lot to answer for!!!

### 1/5 — Membership management

*2022-03-14, version 5.69*

This is impossible to locate within the app

### 1/5 — App is not working!!

*2022-03-09, version 5.69*

My friends and I are regular swimmers at Mildenhall Hub however changes to the app are causing much frustration as we can’t complete payment or we’re told our details aren’t correct. Please can you sort this out as you will loose customers if people can’t complete their booking.

### 1/5 — Possibly one of the worst apps I’ve used in a decade.

*2021-10-17, version 5.11*

Almost impossible to use on an iPhone. Boxes at the bottom of the page are covered by writing that should be underneath it. Never click the X, ie you’re on the accept terms and cons page and if viewing vertically you can’t see the accept button (way off to the right somewhere) so if you click the X you’re back at the home page (all bookings gone). Abbreviations all over the place and no explanation as to what they mean. It doesn’t remember your membership number, details or card number to pay. No Apple Pay or PayPal. 
It is just a generally poor effort at an app, something you’d expect from a beginner at an evening class. Makes you wonder how everything else is run. Safety, investment, management staffing etc 🤷‍♂️🤞. Not a great start to your families leisure experience.

### 1/5 — Joke

*2026-02-07, version 109.79*

Website log in to book is a joke

### 1/5 — Joining Abbeycroft

*2024-11-19, version 107.106*

Extremely difficult to login. Would not have joined if I’d known that it would be this problematic.

### 1/5 — money scandal

*2024-11-15, version 107.106*

i set my depit card bill payment to monthly and they have taken my money half way through the month and will take it again at the end of the month they have charged me twice. and i can’t now see my billing payments in the app and when they were last due

### 1/5 — Awful app, no help whatsoever

*2024-10-20, version 107.106*

Awful app, i trying to find out where you can swim in Suffolk, I’m non the wiser! Keeps throwing me out of the sports centres, doesn’t say with centres have pools

### 1/5 — Review

*2024-07-15, version 107.86*

I have had real problems with arrangement - 
They have said I did t attend classes when I did - and therefore have had a strike which means I now cannot book !!!! 
The receptionist tried to help but that hadn’t worked either !!!!! 
You wont even let me use the nicknames I have chosen / just dont believe  they have ALL been taken !!!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2024-06-19, version 107.46*

Not working

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-03-02, version 106.63.1*

Useless app. Gives you one price but tries to charge you more when you go to the next page.

### 1/5 — Overcomplicated

*2023-11-04, version 106.63.1*

Booking through this app is an exercise in self control. Even with family membership, every time you book you have to enter your membership number. And your personal details TWICE. once to add to basket, once to confirm booking. What then is the point of having an app???

### 1/5 — It’s not easy to use

*2023-10-12, version 106.63.1*

I found that it’s very hard to use, especially if you don’t understand the app also it’s very hard to book things in advance when you don’t know when you’re not at work. Also I tried to book a swim and it said it was fully booked and I was on a waiting list and within two minutes of me, getting in my house changed to say that I could go which then I had to than find out how to cancel the swim to let somebody else go to swim is it possible to go back as it was before Covid where you don’t have to book for a swim?

### 1/5 — Worst app I have ever used

*2023-07-07, version 106.58.2*

This app is the worst I have ever used. It does not integrate with an iPhone at all. It’s hard to navigate the menu option to find what you would like, when you finally find your session, to book it I have to enter in my name and email 3 times, accept T&C twice, it cannot use auto fill so everything has to be entered manually, and it does not work with any pay app so you have to get your physical card and type it in. Crazy. Other poor features are, text over buttons which you cannot press. Icons do not match the text. A website would be better than this app.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-05-09, version 110.28*

Just joined last week. This was very easy especially as Iona in reception was so incredibly kind and helpful. 
First session in swimming pool was very enjoyable. Bright, very clean, really pleasant water temperature. Looking forward to my membership.

### 5/5 — Not working

*2025-10-09, version 108.29*

My booking icon not working

### 5/5 — Fantastic local facility

*2023-02-25, version 5.94*

Have started swimming at Abbeycroft after a few years away from the area. 
The re- vamped changing area & showers etc are very good. I have been really impressed.
The staff are always busy keeping everywhere clean . 
I particularly like the many ‘ NO outdoor shoes’ signs, although I still see people ignore this!!
All the staff are friendly & helpful.
The on- line booking is easy & works well.

### 5/5 — Aqua aerobics

*2022-03-10, version 5.69*

Superb sessions enjoyed at kingfisher on a Monday and Wednesday morning, led by excellent teachers, Ellen and Lyndsey. A very good work-out felt by everyone involved.

### 5/5 — Absolutely loving it!!

*2022-03-10, version 5.69*

Never thought in a million years id being going off to the gym by myself but since taking the plunge to go for it, i can safely say i am really enjoying it, i still have a lot of other classes to try once i work up the courage to book one but i know once i do there really wont be any stopping me!! I’m not the most confident person in the world but i thought if i don’t give it a try ill never do it….so so glad i took the plunge…the best part of it is i dont have any real goals just to get a little fitter than i am and have fun while i do it and if i lose weight along the way then its a bonus!! If you are thinking of going even if its along go for it!! The most important part of exercise it enjoying it and not thinking of it as a chore because it soon becomes boring!!

### 5/5 — Loving Abbeycroft at Mildenhall

*2022-03-10, version 5.69*

I love the swimming at Abbeycroft The Hub Mildenhall excellent staff so friendly

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2021-04-01, version 5.2*

I can’t wait to start swimming again and now I’ll be able to book so I won’t turn up when it’s crowded. An important consideration when swimming

### 4/5 — Won’t open. Just flashes a screen then closes.

*2023-08-10, version 106.63.1*

See title
But OK after I deleted it and then downloaded again. (On an IPhone )

### 4/5 — Just re-joined since the pandemic

*2022-03-09, version 5.69*

Just joined again since covid and loving it already.  However you used to have two LBT classes in the evening and now only one.  Please fit another one in if you can!  I can see it’s already a very popular class!

### 4/5 — Not good

*2021-08-09, version 5.11*

This app doesn’t work well at all. On entering the home page it looks really good a lot of work has gone into getting this page working however that’s were the compliment finishes. On trying to book sessions this is truly awful. The swimming booking works ok but the gym booking and booking sessions for the soft play for my child needs more development. I try to book a gym session but the app won’t let me even though I have a membership. I also live in between Haverhill and Sudbury so use gyms in both towns which my membership allows but when trying to change the gym location from Haverhill to Sudbury for all my searching I can’t see how to do this on the app. A really poor effort.
