Always a good experience

Easy to order online and was kept informed of status of delivery.
One of my purchases came too late for me to use (it was a gamble) and it was easy to return.
Over the years I've also spent hundreds of pounds in store and have always been very happy.

Jack was brilliant

Jack, firstly well done, you handled the angry gentleman in a calm and professional manner. There was no need for him to speak to you as he did..
Secondly thank you for helping us choose our purchase & explaining the discounts to us, we are very happy with it.
I hope you had a great end to your shift.

Service today was brilliant from all staff from start to finish. The initial call taker sourced us a replacement item to continue our holiday. Kev and Evie then dealt with our enquiry in store. All 3 staff were excellent, we were very grateful!.

Friendly greeting on entering.
And a nice chat with Leeann at the till.
Unfortunately the fishing tackle has been drastically reduced. Maybe the new store at Huddersfield has been the reason for so poor stock.
Clothing and camping good are well displayed and abundant.

In store great. After-sales poor.

Extremely good in-store help and service from Edward and Mya today.
Unfortunately, when I got the chosen product home it was missing a part.
Wakefield was my 2nd GoOutdoors visit of the day having been to my local Huddersfield (Leeds Road) store earlier, but they didn't have my item in stock.
When I rang Holly at the Wakefield store to explain the issue I didn't think the response was very helpful. Having chased around the stores to get the product in the first place I'd hoped that they might send me a replacement or at the least the missing part. Instead, the onus was on me to return the item to the store for refund or replacement (if they had one.)
By a quirk of fate, the advertised phone number for the Huddersfield (Leeds Road) store actually rings through to the Huddersfield (New Street) store, which I thought had closed. There I was helped by Mark who very obligingly took the issue on board and was able to sort out the missing part this morning.
It grieves me that I've had to take the initiative here for something that customer service could have done. It takes away from the good in-store experience. Must try harder.

Excellent customer care and service

I ordered a Berghaus Sleeping bag and camp bed for Click and Collect on 2nd July.
I hadn’t had any emails to say that the items had been delivered after this, so contacted customer services who informed me that the items had been delivered to the store. They were very helpful.
I then contacted Wakefield Store as I was worried that because I hadn’t collected the order, it would be sent back. I spoke with Maya, who was lovely and went and looked for my order whilst I waited on the phone. When I told her there were two items, she even went back again and made sure they had them for me. I also requested to ensure they were kept until I could get there to collect them on Thursday. Maya went above and beyond-I have a camping trip In the next two weeks and wanted the equipment ready for then. Very relieved!

Ok experience despite comments off one staff member

Bought some walking shorts this morning, the quality was poor and during an 8km walk they had ripped on one of the seams so we returned that day.

One of the staff was very polite and agreed to the refund and we went to find a different pair of shorts. Upon exchanging the shorts, one of the more senior aged staff insinuated my husband was fat and questioned if we were buying the same size of shorts and what we had been up to in the shorts.

A few quick words and it was resolved but we weren’t impressed with that staff member for sure!
