Extremely helpful

Lucy and Heidi were extremely helpful on our visit today. Nothing was too much trouble. They made contact with the Cribbs Causeway store to cancel a click and collect order for us, as we’d been unable to get through on the phone. We walked away with a better tent than initially ordered plus the air shelter that had been cancelled from the original order from the other store, because it was unavailable. Thank you for your help.

Kate was super helpful!

Kate was brilliant helping me choose some walking trainers, with (non-pushy) suggestions, shoes to try on and helpful advice. I ended up with the perfect ones, and appreciate the time she took as I tried on almost every pair in the shop.

Simply billy! I went into go outdoors requiring a full pack for a 3 day survival camp, to which billy had plenty of knowledge and was giving me a variety of options for everything which was extremely helpful. Also super easy to talk to. Highly recommend billy!

We came up from Taunton to see your range of tents after having a look around the Taunton store. We cannot speak highly enough of the customer service that we had from Mark the tent man and Karin in store. Both went above and beyond normal expectations.A credit to your company.

Bought a Calibre Saw

Bought a Calibre Saw. Took 5 days from purchase for us to receive a pick up notification to collect from our local store. When we went to collect the bike was not ready for collection.
We asked that they take our number and keep us updated. We had no response. So we popped back a few days later. No further developments.
Left another three days before returning. The bike was ‘ready’. Though no one had contacted us to inform us.
Upon getting home and inspecting properly the bike was most certainly not built up to anything approaching a professional level. There was no grease in the seat post; asking for a seized post later down the line. Strike one.
The front disc pads are rubbing. The gears aren’t correctly adjusted. There’s numerous small stratches to the bike. The spring on one side of the front quick release is missing. The tires aren’t inflated sufficiently.

We took the bike because I was a bike mechanic years ago and can sort these issues. But if you are expecting a bike that is safe and functional without additional work you should avoid purchasing this irrelevant of very good price. Go to a proper bike shop.
Really wish I could express better what a negative buying experience I’ve had.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We are saddened to hear about your experience and appreciate how disappointing this must have been. Waiting several days after placing your order, only to find the bike was not ready for collection, is frustrating enough, but we understand your disappointment was compounded by the lack of communication and the issues you discovered when inspecting the bike.

We are particularly concerned to hear of the concerns you have raised regarding the bike's assembly and pre-delivery checks. Customers should expect their bike to be prepared to a safe and satisfactory standard before collection, and we're sorry that this did not meet your expectations.

This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. This has been raised with the relevant management team for review, as customer feedback such as yours helps us identify where improvements are needed.

We apologise for the inconvenience and disappointment caused and regret that your experience has left you with such a negative impression of our service.

Kind regards

The Go Outdoors staff were unbelievably helpful to me - giving good advice about a tent but most importantly when I lost my wallet. They kept it safe and were very helpful when I came back for it. I cannot thank the kindness and professionalism of Zoe, Billy, Jay and Andy enough.

Excellent Ebike Purchase Experience

Collected a new ebike from the store - excellent handover process with clear instructions and information about the aftersales service and warranty. Returned a day later to sort out the sale discount due to a last minute price change and Zoe was fantastic at dealing with the issue in a helpful and friendly manner.

Online order delivery error

I recently placed an online order as there were some items that were not in stock at GoOutdoors Bristol. Sadly, one item was not delivered and I received another item in error. The online help and telephone helplines were not at all helpful, so I popped into store. Kerrie and Mia were incredibly helpful and sorted out the error quickly, easily and with fantastic customer service - both a credit to the store.

We were helped by the lovely Andy today, not only was he extremely well versed in the equipment that we had chosen but also helped with activating our members account. The service provided was helpful, efficient and held great comedic timing.

Great service!

Went in to buy new walking boots for both myself and my husband. Served by Robin who gave us a lot of good advice and was very knowledgeable about the boots on sale. He also advised me on how to lace my boots differently so they wouldn't press on a bone spur I have which gets painful if pressed on. Would definitely use them again!
