Total Rip off
Feb 2021 • Friends
Had a skydive booked for early March, and had to cancel due to COVID. This is the 5th time I have had to rebook and now they are increasing the costs! Customer service is zero, Jason the owner does not care about anything apart from screwing as much cash out of each customer as possible. Avoid at all costs!

Morning, I think i have just replied to your last message already left on this platform. But last time your stated your booking got changed 4 times now you are stating 5 times. We have been more than fair offering the skydive to be changed again. If you would like to rebook that in please contact the office. Best Wishes and Stay Safe Jason

Zero customer service skills
Feb 2021
Jason Thompson a director of this company has absolutely no customer service skills. My booking was rescheduled for around the 4th time due to poor weather and COVID then suddenly the price increases by £50.00! When I ask why he said a Saturday has always had a £50.00 surcharge. In all of the emails I have had from UK Parachuting no mention of a £50.00 surcharge in any of the terms and conditions! He then says “take it up with Buy a Gift” I do so and Buy a gift say if he will un-redeem the gift card they will reissue with another supplier. Jason refuses to do so even after referring me back to Buy a Gift! Jason then comes back to me and says, I have managed to speak to Sindy ( who has left the company) and she confirms the booking. So we will confirm the booking without the £50.00 surcharge! I have totally lost faith in UK parachuting and would rather pay extra to jump with a company I can trust. UK Parachuting must be in sever financial difficulties if one refund makes such a difference. As UK Parachuting will dispute all of the above, I will copy and paste the email trail if need be. Do not book with UK parachuting as I believe they are in such financial difficulties they will not be around for very long!

Morning, Clearly weather and Covid are completely out of our control we think the whole country has been in the same boat for the past year so we are sorry about this. The voucher that has been purchased for yourself clearly says midweek only again as it was purchased NOT directly through UK Parachuting its out of our control. The voucher that you have can still be used as explained midweek only. As you can see from the other 1500 reviews on this platform UK Parachuting has a 40 year history in sport parachuting within the UK and our reviews are excellent. If you would like to book another date in please let me know. Best Wishes and Stay Safe. Jason.

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience
Dec 2020
My skydive on the 13th December went perfectly, I felt safe and comfortable with Callum and I couldn’t have asked for someone better to jump with. Incredible experience, would always recommend UK Parachuting to anyone who wants to do it!

Tandem skydive for British Heart Foundation
Dec 2020 • Solo
Great experience this morning finally getting to do my skydive for British Heart Foundation after a few weather cancellations. Max was a great partner to jump with and made me feel very relaxed and confident in what was going to happen. Would definitely recommend!

Such an amazing experience
Dec 2020
It has been on my list to skydive for years now and it was such an amazing experience. The staff were all so friendly and great to chat to, the jumps was scary as expected but definitely worth it! The views and peace up in the sky were stunning. It was quite a grey cloudy day when we jumped but you dont actually fly higher than the clouds so the scenery of the coast and landscape was still beautiful.

Amazing!
Dec 2020
As an 80 year old and having had a few amazing experiences before including abseiling, zip wire, wing walk, I can truly say this was the most incredible. I was looked after so well by all the staff, friendly and cheerful, very careful in their instructions and checking everything out. My "Tandem" was really great, he filled me with confidence that all would go well and it did.

Tandem sky diving
Dec 2020 • Friends
I'm not really one to leave reviews but on this occasion I will make an exception. Words can not describe the exhilarating of what I experienced yesterday, for you to understand you must take the jump. We jumped on the second jump so there was a little waiting around but nothing too bad, the Saftey briefs were direct and not overly complicated and repeated by the individual instructors again on the ascend. My instructor Rick was brilliant, had some good bants but definitely knew his stuff. I whole heartedly would recommend this to everyone who is willing. Dont worry about overthinkingn or botteling it you won't get the opportunity once your in the plane things move very quickly. One last thing, don't worry about jumping in the cold winter weather the last thing on your mind will be being cold. Definitely already one of my favourite memories and will be difficult to top.

Hi, Thanks you for the review and the feedback, to look into your case a little more can you let me know when you did the AFF ground school with us? As we have not trained anyone for ground school in the past 5 weeks due to the shutdown with COVID-19. Can you be sure it was at a UK Parachuting location as we have been closed. Once we have the date we will be able to look into your case. As you can clearly see just from this platform alone we have over 1500 5 star reviews and take each case as they come in, we are sorry you feel this way but please be sure we shall look into this matter. Look forward to hearing from you soon. Best Wishes Jason.
