Totally useless business

Delayed, wrong colour, impossible to contact. The usual Artifical Incompetence, (tick box technology). The designers never considered they might make a mistake. Don't touch with a very long pole. You could shorten your life in frustration.

Hello Barney, thank you for your feedback.

We are sorry that the delivery took longer than expected. Unfortunately, our shipping partner experienced a high volume of packages at this time.

Regarding the communication, our system shows that you received automated emails but did not reply to them. When a reply is sent directly to that automated email, the request will be automatically forwarded to our support team so that a colleague can continue to assist you. Creating new requests instead will trigger a new automated message each time.

We have now reviewed your case and compared the photos you provided with your order. The delivered item matches the product that was ordered. If the item does not meet your expectations, you are welcome to return it for a refund by following the return instructions under www.alpinetrek.co.uk/return/. Please ensure that the item is unused and returned in its original packaging with all labels and tags attached so that a refund can be processed.

Kind regards, Alpinetrek.co.uk

The sneakers arrived very fast and right on time. The tracking was clear and easy to follow, which made the whole process very convenient. The packaging was excellent and looked very premium. Overall, a great experience. Thank you!

I made 2 orders. The first gave me the wrong size. The second was delivered to the wrong address and I still don’t have it.

Return process is lengthy

Here is what they don't tell you on the website. If you decide to return an order, it will take two weeks for Royal Mail, the return service they advise you to use, to deliver the package to Aylesbury. It will then sit there for up to 21 days waiting to clear customs. It will then take up to an additional 15 days for the company to process the return and issue your refund. These figures are taken from their correspondence with me.

So if you are thinking of ordering something because you want to try it on and are unsure whether you're going to keep it, be prepared not to see your money again for a good six weeks or longer.

I will not be ordering from them again.

Thank you for your feedback. We would like to clarify a few points regarding the return process, as there seems to be some misunderstanding.

First, the return shipment did not take two weeks to arrive in Aylesbury and the processing time on our side is also not 15 days. As stated on our website under www.alpinetrek.co.uk/return/, it can take up to 21 days for returns to be delivered to our distribution centre in Germany due to customs clearance. Once the return arrives at our facility, it is usually processed immediately.

In your particular case and as our colleague has already explained, the delay occurred because the return had not yet reached our warehouse. For this reason, our colleague initiated an investigation with the shipping carrier and has issued a refund for your return.

Normally, returns take up to about 21 days to arrive from customs and be processed. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience.

Best regards, Alpinetrek.co.uk

I ordered a Patagonia parka jacket with a 30% discount on 7 February. After reading trust pilot reviews Shortly after placing the order, I had second thoughts and emailed to cancel. However, I was told that cancellation was not possible and that I would need to wait until the item arrived and then request a refund. I also contacted my bank the next day, but they advised they could not stop the payment and suggested waiting 14 days.

On the positive side, the seller provided regular parcel updates, and the jacket arrived on 14 February, which was reasonably fast. The product itself was as described and in good condition.

Although I initially planned to return it, the return process seemed a bit cumbersome, so I decided to keep the jacket. Overall, while the delivery and product quality were good, the cancellation and return flexibility could be improved to give customers more confidence when ordering.

Good price

Good price, the quality of clothing is good, and delivery is reasonably quick. The top had hairs, obviously from a previous return, but the items were sale items. No issues with the company, will continue to use and recommend.

Dodgy

These people are extremely dubious; I'm currently involved in a battle to recover the £78 it cost me to purchase a pair of cycling trousers.
Two weeks on and still no trousers; they are either very inefficient, or a scam.

Customer service is very poor

Customer service is very poor. I returned items 2 weeks ago and still waiting for a refund. They also charge you a restocking fee.
