Just want to thank Alpkit and particularly Brendan from their team who sorted out a replacement swimming wetsuit for me in record time so that I can compete in an imminent open water swimming event. Everything sorted very efficiently and with prompt friendly email communication throughout. Great service. Thank you.

Order was delivered to the wrong address. Alpkit customer service made the process of having a replacement sent unnecessarily difficult and time consuming - 3 calls, walking around the neighbourhood looking for a parcel and 2 emails later, we‘ll see if the order ever turns up. Maybe stick to Royal Mail if you want parcels delivered to the right address.

Package was delayed to due to shipping company and Rachel in Alpkit customer services was brilliant and it was sorted within 24 hours.

Wanted to pre order something not yet back in stock along with a few other things but mostly the RIG 7 in Kelp colour.
RACHEL was AMAZING in helping out with this. I had to wait until about a month before the restock but I can't thank Rachel enough she was extremely helpful.....now just the wait till I get it and hit the wilderness and some earnt solitude and open air!

Superb service. A year after buying a sleeping mat the valve wasn’t working properly. Alpkit happily exchanged it for a different model under their warranty. No questions, no fuss, just quick service. Can’t ask for more.

I purchased a Sonder Bike from the Ambleside Shop. Georgina was really helpful, really knew her stuff (I had no technical knowledge) and listened carefully to my biking needs (rather than trying to sell me something). Really patient too whilst I tested bikes and asked her a ton of questions. Very impressed and would highly recommend.

I ordered a new tent in a recent sale and after not receiving an email confirmation I contacted the team. Brendan from Alpkit responded quickly and got my order sent next day.
Small glitches like this are always going to happen with any company, but Alpkit excel above others by providing great customer service, responding quickly, and being empowered to resolve the issue.

Fantastic company to deal with. Great products and great value but also exceptional customer service. I ordered several products for my wife and I but I screwed up on applying a discount code at the online checkout and realised too late the mistake I made. I immediately contacted the Alpkit customer support team and Brendan fixed the issue straight away. Very responsive and impressive customer focus. I will definitely be using Alpkit again.

Chairs were delayed due to stock issues. Good comms and when I realised the price had reduced in the period I was waiting for delivery, Brendan was happy to refund the difference, no questions asked.

I purchased a bike pack from Alpkit 2 years ago but not been able to use it due to injury until now. I could not work out how to attach it to my saddle so i contacted Alpkit to explain the situation, and without hesitation they identified the issue and have resolved it by sending a new part within 24 hours. How amazing is that??? thank you!!!

Great outdoor gear and fantastic online customer service. My order arrived quickly, and the team was super helpful when I had a question. Really impressed—will definitely use Alpkit again.

Wanted to pen a quick line to say how appreciative I am of the Alpkit support team - genuinely my best experience of customer service for as long as I can remember…. I arranged a return through Alpkit’s Royal Mail collect service which went zinging away with Royal Mail only to be followed up later in the day by a Royal Mail email saying the collection had failed and the return cancelled! Brendan in the customer service team immediately took ownership of the problem rather than sending me back to Royal Mail and sorted the whole thing out with maximum reassurance and no fuss. Not only that but the phone was answered pretty much straight away and Brendan followed up over email in a similarly super-efficient way. If only all customer service experiences were like this!

I purchased a water bladder from Alpkit back in December. It recently started leaking but the o ring seal was replaced by Alpkit within 48 hours at no cost. Outstanding customer service!

Amazingly responsive service.
My head torch battery stopped working and they identified the issue and agreed to send a replacement immediately.
Such a great customer experience and I can keep using my brilliant Qark light

I’ve bought many products from alpkit both in stores and online. Recent made a purchase online and the product, delivered by DPD, did not get to me through one reason or another. I spoke to Brendan and he sorted me with a replacement in quick time which is very much appreciated. I like the community feel and support of alpkit, so thank you very much.

I'd just like to say how impressed I've been With the customer service especially Naomi. She's been so helpful and gone out of her way to help. 10/10 Thanks you.

4 stars are for brilliant customer service from Rachel, she responded to my query in little over an hour and sent instructional video to set up my compact hiking pole. Yes you read that right, I needed instructions for a pole. Minute long video easy to follow but why it could not be explained clearly on packaging is a mystery. As for the pole very hard to pull out top section first time, in fact I could not do it at all, my husband had a go, he struggled to do it too. It seems to have loosened up after opening and shutting half a dozen times. Feels like some WD40 would be helpful but reluctant to try as at this point not sure I won't be returning it.
