Prices and availability are often the best for some of the brands that I like, so this isn’t my first time using Alpinetrek. On this occasion I bought and returned some shoes as they were a little tighter than expected, however the refund was issued without and problems and I ordered another size. They’re a little slow and I suppose my only complaint would be that they use a ‘co.uk’ address when goods are actually shipped from Central Europe. Yes, the expected shipping time IS stated so they’re not doing anything wrong but one of the main reasons that people choose to buy from ‘co.uk’ sites is that they assume shipping will be swift. I feel that it’s a little misleading. They also exclusively use EVRI. Thankfully my experience this time was positive and I appear to have a a good local driver but I would never choose a site using Evri if I could find the same product for a competitive price elsewhere, it’s not worth the risk

I returned vidda pro trousers, I printed off the label they provided, it was collected by royalmail. I have tracking data and screenshots I gave them to show the package was picked up and delivered to their UK depot. The package now appears to be lost in the system, and I have no received a refund after waiting a month. Very disappointed. I couldnt recommend this retailer, first time shopping online in 20 years I have run into such an issue. Avoid.

Offered a £5 off voucher…Watch out

Offered a £5 off voucher to sign up to newsletter. Went to use it on a £35 order and advised it was not sufficient spend…the offer is a Scam. Very disappointing that this was not transparent

I am still waiting for my order 6 days after I was told it was being despatched. Delivery company Evri still not received the order after they sent me an email on the 13th of this month.

Terrible logistics - DO NOT SHOP HERE

8 days after the order and the products are still showing as 'being processed'... Absolutely no update from the company... Very disappointed. I think you need to question your logistics.

Delivery was later than stated. Hadn't realised the item was coming from Germany. Bit misleading from a .co.uk company. Unlikely to use again although the product is very good.

No update on my order.

I submitted my order a week ago, and I have yet to receive any information regarding its status. Additionally, the phone number listed on the website is not responsive.

Scam - did not get £5 off first order

When ordering on their website, a pop up offered £5 off my first order if I signed up for the newsletter. I signed up, but did NOT get the £5 reduction.

bad delivery service and even worse customer service

My package was delivered to the wrong flat block, and it was left in a landing. It was supposed to be signed for but it's obvious this didn't happen.

Poor customer service, long delivery

Poor customer service. They replied to my query, after 8 days and with an answer that had nothing to do with my issue.

Hello and thank you for your review! We are based in the small town of Kirchentellinsfurt in Southern Germany and are also shipping our products from Germany. Due to post-Brexit customs clearance in Bury St Edmunds, it usually takes 5-21 days to process any returns coming to us from the UK. We could see that you already wrote to our customer service and we already replied. We hope we can offer you a satisfactory solution! Kind regards, Alpinetrek.co.uk
