- CBCecilia BriuzisMar 26, 20261.0Posted a month ago, a return to Sports direct of a brand new pair of trainers and they stole it!! The parcel didn't move from that date and no one is taking responsibility for it nor giving my money back. Claims procedure absolute joke. Also they gave me an email to get a response and it failed. Bloody joke
