Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Great website with huge choice, well priced. Would have been 5 stars but do not like the restocking fee when returning items.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Loads of choices, the best deals specially the outlet products. These prices are unmatched elsewhere. 100 days return policy and customer service is excellent. I bought a Patagonia jacket last April (... See more

I ordered a Haglöfs Korp Proof Jacket…

I ordered a Haglöfs Korp Proof Jacket at a sale price. The order was processed and marked as dispatched, with Amazon Shipping tracking provided and an expected delivery date of 20 August.

The jacket never arrived, and the tracking stopped updating. I contacted AlpineTrek and received a response on 24 August, but nobody informed me that they were cancelling the order.

I then unexpectedly received a notification from my bank that AlpineTrek had refunded the order without contacting me or asking if I wanted a refund

The jacket is now out of stock at the sale price, so I'm left unable to purchase the same jacket for what I originally paid.

I contacted AlpineTrek again to explain that I didn't want a refund and still wanted the jacket, and asked them to investigate the missing shipment or source a replacement. I'm currently waiting for a response.

Very disappointing customer service and communication. I would have expected AlpineTrek to contact me before cancelling and refunding an order that had already been dispatched.

Whole process ordering, shipping and delivery is smooth

Products are easy to order online. Emails keep you updated as to the ordering and shipping process. Delivery is normally pretty quick. I'm always happy to deal with this company. Packaging is excellent and customer service seems to be pretty good. Other companies would do well to copy their example.

Good products but slow refund process

Good products and was aware that the stock is sent from Germany via UK warehouse. I had to return something and it arrived at UK warehouse but no acknowledgment. The product gets shipped back to Germany before any refund is made so a delay. Which I understand but customers need keeping informed as to where the return is in the process.

Failed to pay my cashback

Alpinetrek take part in TopCashback with a rate of 5.25%. I purposely avoided using a £5 off voucher direct with Alpinetrek so I could make sure I met the terms to get the cashback.

It tracked fine, but when it came to confirming it later down the line, they denied my cashback. I know everything I need to do so I meet all the terms. They should be removed from cashback sites and I'll never use them again.

Non-existent customer service

Item has apparently been lost in transit. Tracking has stopped en route and not updated for weeks. No response from Alpinetrek customer service other than an initial AI generated email despite me emailing repeatedly. Incredibly frustrating. Will have to pursue a refund via my credit card.

Great to deal with.

Very good company to deal with. Friendly emails updating me on my orders. Have received two separate orders now and they have both being dealt with very well. I will use Alpine trek again thanks.

Ordering process was easy

Ordering process was easy, dispatching and delivery by Amazon parcel delivery service was the only reason why I deducted one star. Had to chase as the delivery estimate was exceeded.

Order arrived as described and please with purchase, will buy again
