On October the 29th 2017 Amart Sports underwent a merge with Rebel Sports.
Multiple times i have ordered from this store. The first two times was click and collect and for some reason the store doesn't get my order each time, although it shows in the system. The last click and collect i ordered socks and didn't receive them until 6 weeks later after ringing, emailing ect. I have now ordered a garmin watch for my sons… Read more
birthday, and it said delivery would had been within that week. I haven't received any details and doesn't even show up in my order history. I rang and spoke to someone and they said it shows up in there end and looks fine. Why does this company take so long. The contact us is useless. There is no Web chat like it says, and you can't even email. You can only get through to them by phone. Facebook messenger they dont reply either. Useless company for such a big sporting business. Very unhappy with this service.
12 months on and still the same nonsense. Worst customer service at the Cannington store. Standing there for 15 minutes like a clown waiting for someone to assist in the shoe department. While all the staff member was just standing there looking and I had to shout in the middle of the store to get their attention. Where is management where is corporate? How can this nonsense? Horrible customer service exist and continues Show details
My son and I went into Rebel to buy football boots. The man who served us was friendly enough, but he was serving 3 other customers at the same time and was rushed off his feet. Definitely a lack of staff! The check out was appalling- we spent $480 and the girl serving us just chatted to the girl next to her- no eye contact, she didn’t greet us, didn’t ask if had found everything , didn’t thank us or say goodbye. We are not going back. Show details

Bought a pair of New Balance shoes and they got holes in the heels in only months of time. Took them back and the MANAGER told me it was a WEAR and TEAR issue and not a FAULT in the MAKING. END OF CASE. No REFUND or NO EXCHANGE. "DO NOT SHOP" at this STORE whatever YOU DO. Show details
On 20/03/2026 I went into store to buy some clothing. One item purchased was a Parra Eels Jersey. $130.00. total spend was $260.00. I did not know that jersey was old and not with current sponsorship on jersey. Tried using their online contact tho this is absolutely a waste of time. Very disappointed that staff did not point out that jersey is… Read more
not current, tho did state was a Parra supporter..... This was my first experience shopping at Rebel and I will never shop with this company ever again. I think it a bit shady for staff not to point out that jersey is not 2026.
Absolutely unacceptable experience. My product was ordered on December 1st, with expected delivery of two weeks by an international partner. I never received it. I contacted Rebel twice to check on the status of delivery and on both occasions, I was not told there was any issue. I was only advised days before Christmas that the order had been… Read more
cancelled and could not be fulfilled.
What makes this even more frustrating is that the exact same item remained available for purchase on their website, which is confusing and inconsistent.
As a result, my child did not receive their Christmas present. Being given a $200 store voucher and having it referred to as a “courtesy refund” is frankly a joke. I didn’t cancel my order, and a voucher is not a refund, especially when Rebel has already demonstrated they cannot fulfil what I wanted, and I have no desire to purchase anything else from them.
Under Australian Consumer Law, customers are entitled to a refund when goods cannot be supplied within a reasonable time. Store credit cannot be imposed in place of a refund.
This experience has completely eroded my trust. I would rather support a locally owned sports store than deal with this again.
Be very cautious ordering from this store online!!! I made an order 2 weeks ago, money taken from my account, but I can’t find any information about when the product will be delivered. I have tried emailing, calling, using the online chat but you just end up in a loop of machines. The customer service is non-existent. No updates on when it will… Read more
likely be delivered, tracking number says expected delivery date 3 December, it’s the 15 December and no delivery.
I understand it is a busy time of year, but reduce reliance on machines, employ some staff and update customers.
I purchased an exercise bike and some fitness equipment online from the Frankston store. Paid in full incl. assembly. It was not a cheap order. Delivered and left without assembling it. Been waiting over a week for someone to assemble the bike now. Called the store at least 10 times chasing them. Store managers saying they will get back to me but… Read more
they don't. General customer number no reply either. You just can't trust these guys. Amatures. Going to cancel the order due to inadequate service!
Rebel Sport really struggle with the security tags. Same customer, second order with a security tag issue... it makes me wonder how many orders go out with this mistake.
I purchased some items for my son and when I came home I noticed one of the hoodies had a hole through the front to the back of the item. I contacted online support to ask them if I can send the faulty item back for a replacement as I didn't have time to go back to the store before I leave to go overseas. The team member online was so unhelpful… Read more
and said she cannot help me out even though I was sold a faulty product. So disappointing and as a very loyal customer over the last 10 years this will be the last time me and my husband shop with this franchise

Today (14 Novemver, 2025) we were very satisfied with the staff member, Aidan. He came across as approachable, with ready to help attitude, also with an exploratory manner in rendering his service to achieve our goal. We would like the Management to know about his excellent performance.
Follow-up · Aidan did not help us to find anything but he did help us to pump the Swiss ball (basket ball). We liked his "willing to help" attitude & especially his friendliness.

Have bought from Macquarie store a few times and have had nothing but outstanding service from the sales assistants. I had a particular experience when I was first looking for running shoes and the assistant was helpful, as well as patient while I tried on multiple pairs of shoes and sizes. Show details
Went to buy lightweight dumbbells for kids, on Sat Sept. 27, 2025. Was greeted by AYLA, a pretty young lady who epitomises everything one expects from any business; Professional service with a smile! She showed me the items (I eventually bought) and even carried them to the front desk for me. Ultimate example of a young person who, appreciates her… Read more
work position and is more than happy to help the customers. Thanks AYLA! I could give you 7/5 but I can only click on 5 stars. ZEN
Today,I went into Rebel in Port Macquarie. We had a lovely man called Michael who helped us. Michael showed patience and treated my husband so kindly. He certainly went above in is job.

Not sure how a popular store with deep pockets have the worst not only customer service but the worst web browser. I’ve seen better web browsers in India and Bangladesh this piece of trash that I’m trying to use to purchase things from them. However, I gotta thank them that’s one way to stop me from spending money at this crappy store.
Website showed click and collect available, so i bought a gift card to pay it, then on the next page of the rebel sport page it said not available at Southland . So I basically had to buy the product and pay for shipping or have a useless gift card. then on the payment page the PayPal button repeatedly did not work. Eventually it did. Also in the… Read more
past two pairs of ASics gel contend wore thru the upper mesh within a year. This model should be discontinued by Rebel as its poor quality. Lastly i went in the store the other day and there was just one person attending to the shoe section during school holidays. I walked out
REBEL SPORT should not sell GARMIN products in Australia, given that Garmin do not have a repair or service facility in the region. Under Australian Consumer Law, you have the right to a repair, replacement or full refund if your goods are faulty, unsafe, or do not work. Garmin can not offer this service, and try and weasel their way out of… Read more
warranty issues.
Garmin watches have known issues with cracked screens and monitors that do not function correctly. Garmin can not offer local assistance, and your only option is to purchase a refurbished model from Garmin. What a joke! How is this business practice allowed in Australia?
Garmin watches in Australia are a scam, and REBEL SPORT facilitate this scam!

My Husband went shopping today at Rebel Sports in Frankston, my advice to the short older lady staff member that followed him around the store & accused him of stealing’ is never judge a book by its cover’ obviously tattooed customers are treated very differently to non tattooed customers!

Unfortunately I had a poor experience at this rebel store, wich puts in doubt of the quality and originality of the shoes/boots they sell. I came in at 10am, right when they opened the store. I requested my size in a pair of boots that I liked and it took them around 20 minutes to return with my desired size, wich, by the way, were poorly stitched… Read more
and did not look as nice as the pair on display. I then tried another pair of boots and requested them on my size; they arrived more promptly with the boots thid time but the had a big stain on them. I finally decided to buy the 1st pair I've tried and when I was going to pay for them at the counter, they said that they could not sell them to me because they were not yet released. I left the store empty handed after spending 1 hour with them and unable to give me a solution. Very poorly managed and unable to sell a product on display. No compensation of any kind was given either and they let us go without writting our phone number anywhere for a later more formal apology. For all these reasons you receive a 1 star review. What a waste of time and transport money.
I ordered an item online and returned it. It was confirmed by Australia Post that it was returned and it has now been over a month and my refund/return hasn’t been processed, despite multiple emails to Rebel. Rebel has told me that there were delays over the Christmas/New Year period which I understand, but it is well past that time now and there has been no effort to follow up with me or update me about the status of the order.

We tried to pay with a Party gift card today at Rebel Myaree. The card didn't work; apparently they only accept some cards from this company but not all, even though the party card information says accepted at Rebel. I think the Party card is more at fault here, but I think Rebel have chosen so work with a gift card company that are no… Read more
straighforward to deal with. I also would have appreciated if the store manager had been prepared to infor head office about these issues, rather than just directing us to the Gift Card company.
The worst experience I’ve ever had with any company. I brought my nephew a bag for Christmas and put my address in. On their end they’ve mixed up my address and send it to Townsville, I emailed them to tell them they’ve send it to the wrong address to which they blamed Australia post, and told me they would launch an investigation, a week goes by… Read more
and they don’t get back to me at all. I requested rebel to reach out and get it sent to me on the Gold Coast. Australia post called me and they scanned it to be return to sender but rebel knew I wanted it still, rebel just went ahead and processed the refund. Now my nephew is left without a Christmas present. Would no recommend buying from them at all the most ridiculous customer service and no one wants to help. Worst response time and no care for their customers. I hope you go bankrupt and people stop buying from you.
Order RBAU012722875, for two items and only one was delivered, now the tell me that the other one comes from the UK and might not here for Xmas. At no stage was I told that any items were coming from overseas. I should have used Amazon
Ordered an online physical Rebel Sports gift card two weeks ago & still waiting! Tried ringing the providers no. & sent 2 emails with finally an apathetic response after second email. Will not be using this ‘service’ again. Try explaining this to a nine year old child who was waiting to receive it for his birthday last Saturday. Very disappointed.
Now, I am all for work health safety and with that disclosure out the way lets get the sizzle going. Went to get an exercise bike from Rebel sports lots of support and assistance as you would expect in the sale department before the purchase. Paid for the item and then we were directed to the delivery dock to pickup said purchase. On arrival and… Read more
after the worker had sighted the completed purchase receipt he informs us that he cannot assist in loading our purchases into our car to bring it home and up and leaves. [Content Removed]!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So two seventy plus year old customers were left, after the warehouse person up and left, to try to lift the carton, which has a two man lift warning, into the car unaided Goodbye Rebel sport you just lost another customer.
I purchased an (expensive) item from Rebel Sport online for a birthday gift for my son. Delivery says 3-6 business days. After 8 days I still hadn't received it so I checked the tracking details that were sent. The courier website says the tracking number can't be found. So I then contacted Rebel Sport who checked and confirmed that the tracking… Read more
number was wrong. They said it was coming from overseas (news to me) and that I should just wait to see if it turns up. I requested that they urgently ship another item to arrive before my son's birthday but Rebel Sport would not agree. Their website is grossly misleading, and their conduct is extremely unethical. And they had the nerve to refer to it as an "inconvenience" and claim there was nothing more they could do despite me repeatedly suggesting the solution.
Absolutely appalling experience with getting a treadmill delivered. No communication from Winning Services no help from Rebel who claim they can’t contact Winning any way other then email. Multiple ‘failure to deliver’ attempts that were fabricated- Rebel and Winning have no idea where the treadmill is. Winning don’t phone you to let you know… Read more
the delivery is coming or if you are available.
As it stands still don’t have possession of the $3k treadmill I bought two weeks ago.
Looks like I will have to go to Consumer Affairs to get my refund.
Nordic track use Winning Services as do Rebel sport.
Don’t buy if they use Winning Services for delivery.
Purchased a product online,. Then the grubs used my mobile number to spam me with marketing rubbish without my consent. My phone is a work phone.. if I get a SMS Message I have to check it in case it is a customer. If I am driving I have pull over to check the message. Can you imagine how happy it makes me when sitting on the side of the road to discover it is marketing garbage that I never consented to receive.
