Great service in the footwear department

I visited the Gloucester store today looking to buy a new pair of walking shoes. Tom, in the footwear department was really helpful. His knowledge of the ranges is excellent and matched a few pairs for me to try on based on my requirements. Nothing was too much trouble. He took the time to listen to my questions and offered some great advice.
I opted for a pair of Meindl Mondello GTX in the end.
Also, Nia on the till was really efficient and very friendly.
Yet again, a great service from the team at Gloucester.

Go outdoors Gloucester ( cashless 😡 )

Go outdoors Gloucester.

What the hell are your upper management playing at.

I came in to spend a few of hundred pounds on camping stuff took it all up to the counter , only to be told that you could not " wasn't allowed " to accept cash, legal tender!!

We were then told that they couldn't accept cash as they were instructed by their area manager.

Fair play to the go outdoors staff because they're a good bunch but the upper management needs to give there heads a wobble.

How can you turn away a cash sale? Absolutely disgraceful decision that the staff have to enforce.

Very Helpful Staff

Served by Kia & Jack both were very helpful. Kia on the till was very knowledgeable and helped me complete a product exchange with no fuss. Taking time to explain my various options. I was very pleased with the service.

website doesn’t work, customer service is rubbish

First I went to a store to pick up an item that the website said it had in stock, I got there and it wasn’t. The staff couldn’t be bothered to go and check the stock room and came up with all kinds of excuses such as “there’s not enough people in to go and check”. At the same time, the website was still saying that the store had it in stock.
I wrote to complain about this and heard nothing back, so bought the item elsewhere.

Then I ordered a tent online and my members card wouldn’t work, so had to phone them up to rectify. After about 2 days from ordering, they cancelled it with no explanation as to why. The email just said “sorry, we’ve cancelled your order”, it was still in stock online though. I had to phone them up and they said that it was cancelled because the store I was collecting it from couldn’t fulfil the order from their stock…just send it from the warehouse to the store!?
No sorry or goodwill gesture given.

Poor service throughout, the only reason I shop is because of the discount otherwise I’d go elsewhere.

Also, clearly not read the review with the response given.

Thank you for your review, and I’m sorry your initial feedback did not receive a personal response.

I understand how disappointing it must have been when your Click & Collect order was cancelled due to the store being unable to locate the item. You also raised a valid point about despatching from our warehouse to store, this is currently limited by our system, but feedback like yours is helping to drive improvements in this area.

I can see that your 2nd order has since been delivered successfully,

I’m also sorry to hear about your in-store experience and that you did not receive a response to your original complaint.

We have reached out to you via email to obtain further information to look into things further for you.

Thank you again for your feedback and we look forward to hearing from you.

Kind Regards

A highly satisfactory buying experience with an except all-round salesman

Served by Tom who was polite, patient, and knowledgeable about the various available options. Once he knew that one of us was actively doing a charity walk from Lands End to John o’ Groats (he was on day 15 and had already walked over 300 miles) he managed to find a really good deal on a new pair of walking boots and we really appreciated the trouble he took making sure everything was perfect.
An exemplary member of staff - thanks so much Tom.

Quick & easy and wallet friendly

Quick, easy, very friendly and helpful till girl. Got everything I needed (OEX Heiro stove & 100g gas canister) plus a few extras (OEX collapsible cup and 2-for-1 camp mallets) at a great price. Easy free parking too.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We’re really sorry to hear about your experience and can completely understand how frustrating this must have been, especially after making a second trip to store and having difficulty getting through by phone.

This isn’t the level of service we aim to provide, and we’d like the opportunity to look into this for you,

We have reached out to you via Trustpilot to request further contact details so we can investigate this with the store and ensure improvements are made where required.
