Click and Collect
Ordered two items via click and collect. Heard nothing for over a week, so rang the store to enquire. Was informed one item was there, but they were still waiting for the other, which they assumed had been lost in transit. Nobody had bothered to let me know this.

Bought but not received.
Bought the tent last week. Still not delivered by Evri who claim to have attempted to deliver which is not the case.

Great customise service in store
We bought online but only after going into the shop at Monks Cross in York. We were really impressed by one of your staff members who took the time to really help my husband choose the right walking boots and showed him a surgeon's knot to get the fit right. We're very pleased with our purchases. Thanks!

Another good session on the horse simulator
Carys at Naylor's in Go Outdoors expertly helped my partner with another session on the horse simulator. She is continuing to work on her position and stamina and Carys provides just the right amount of help and encouragement each time!

The wrong item was sent to us
The wrong item was sent to us, it got mixed up with another order. I took the item into store to return it and they told me that they had issued a refund. We have still not received the refund and therefore we have no item and no money.
You can improve by sending out the correct item in the first instance.
You could refund people when you said you are.
Or you could send out the correct item out to me now please.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We're very sorry for the frustration and inconvenience caused.
It’s clear we let you down on this occasion. The incorrect item was sent due to an order mix-up, and after you returned it to store, the refund was not processed correctly as intended. We appreciate how disappointing this must have been, especially as you were left without either the item or your money.
We have now investigated this and can confirm that the refund issue has been rectified. The refund has been processed, and the funds should be returned to your original payment method shortly, depending on your bank's processing times.
Please accept our sincere apologies for the errors and delays you've experienced. We appreciate your patience while this was resolved and your feedback, which helps us identify where we need to improve both our fulfilment and refund processes.
Kind Regards

Thank you for your review.
We understand how frustrating it can be when parts of your order are cancelled and we are sorry for this happening. Having checked your order we can see that the cancellations occurred at the time due to a stock error, we aim to ensure our stock is accurately reflected on our site however errors can occur.
We can see a new order has since been placed for the wanted item on our Click & Collect service which is ready to be collected at your earliest convenience. Please take your order confirmation email and ID with you upon collection.
Your feedback is of high value and will be raised with the relevant departments to ensure improvements are made.
Kind regards

Fantastic store
The York Vanguard Go Outdoors is absolutely incredible. The store is huge and very well organised and maintained.
I had a great experience here yesterday. I'd like to mention that Lewis on the checkout was very polite and professional, he helped with an issue on my membership card quickly and is a fantastic member of the team.

I was served by the very helpful and lovely Sue. She had all the warmth, knowledge and advice you could ever wish for from a customer service experience. I’d go out of my way to visit the York store again just for the service alone!
