PureGym Billericay

Lots of positives just a few negatives.Positives: Good value for money, large selection of equipment that is nearly always operational and clean. Friendly and helpful staff/trainers. Good changing/showering facilities. Good range of classes. 24hr access.Negs: The spin bikes could do with a bit of TLC. Parking can be difficult.

Not too busy on a sat evening.Equipment is well kept and clean.Only downside is people don't re rack their dumbbells properly and they're scattered everywhere.If you go here definitely try the bicep machine, allows legendary ROM and you can get a nasty pump.

Thought I would check this gym out. Parking is a nightmare, and took me over 15 minutes to get a parking space.The gym itself is fairly decent, plenty of cardio equipment and a ok choice of resistance machines. I just don’t think I would return because of the parking situation though.

Good range of equipment but the main, pressing issue is lack of sufficient parking. Basically, unless you go at night, good luck finding any parking spot.And even at night, you still get parking fines which PureGym will absolutely not bother assisting their paying customers with. They simply shrug their shoulders, say that they don't own the car park and that's about it.This is the worst level of customer service I've ever witnessed, of all gyms I've been with in this country.

Its an okay little gym fair priced however, Be very careful about the parking I have just received a £100 parking fine from 3 months ago! and if there's a fault with the tablet or you take longer then 10min they will still issue a fine. This has happened to so many people.

Such a shame to have to write the review because I’ve always liked this gym. Was going before covid and never had any issues with the parking. Until returning again this year in September 2023, unaware of the new parking regulations. They’ve now teamed up with Smart Parking LTD who have no customer service at all and don’t care what your reasons are regarding parking fines from said car park. The gym do absolutely nothing to make people aware of this apart from a silly sign when you first walk in, after scanning the QR code ,telling you to enter your reg (not in big enough writing) on a tablet stuck to the wall, not even in plain sight.. Also noting that before you enter via the automatic turnstiles, there’s a massive sign that says they will not discuss parking fine issues on site. So they know this is a problem.. yet they don’t do anything more to make people more aware of their parking rules. Considering every time I went during Sep-nov 2023, 9/10 there was someone standing at a small desk or hovering around the entrance, so they could have kindly reminded people that if they have parked, to put their car reg in, but no, that would be too easy. Currently can’t afford the membership anymore as I’m now paying off hundreds of pounds worth of fines because Smart Parking LTD decided they wanted to take a whole month to send me the first of many fines. Don’t pick this gym unless you have spare money to waste on parking fines.

I tend to use this gym during off peak hours. The gym itself and the changing rooms are consistently clean with antibacterial and blue roll points dotted around. All the lockers are large. The ladies changing rooms lock from 11pm and you can only enter with your pin. The building is quite secure too, when you scan the app to enter the doors prevent you from being followed. The app tells you how many people are currently in the building. The machines seem to have a good variance and quality. There are places to fill your water bottle. Gym users keep to themselves but on the two occasions that I needed help which was to do with working out how to get through the entrance (it was dark and I had a break due to a knee injury), each time people were friendly.I am yet to try the classes.Park on the left within the blue lines for the gym and validate with your license on the tablet near the entrance.

Bikes in spin class are terrible. The actual classes are great. Bikes are almost as bad as the parking fines you get issued when you have entered you reg plate in the machine. Reg plate machine gives no print out or proof that you did it to show if you get an unfair parking ticket. Staff are friendly. All other equipment is good. Richard is a great PT.

I go here often and I think it's a great gym. Well priced and there are showers. Parking seems an issue from what I've read, although I haven't had an issue with parking so far in the two months of being a member.

£100 fine for parking. I went to the gym for the first ever time and I asked a staff member what do I do with my car registration and I was advised, nothing you just park your car and workout as you would. There was signs up for parking but not one on this day point me towards the IPad.You don’t get this sort of trouble with any other gym, I’d stay well clear of it.
