Excellent experience, credit due to a shining employee!

I had an excellent experience at the Amsterdam West store. I turned up on a whim without an appointment after feeling like it was time to get a bike. David was amazing through the entire process. I was offered a small frame bike (as I’m quite short) and given the opportunity to test ride it. Despite a huge line of customers, David met each person with complete ease and this unhurried energy. He gave full attention to whoever he was supporting. I feel my experience was 10000x better because of his kind and patient energy, while I was clunkily figuring out the bike. I felt totally comfortable signing up on the spot and was provided all the information I’d need going forward. I’ll say it again — this guy, David, is a one in a million when it comes to customer service people these days. You could tell every person he interacted with was immediately calmed by his full presence despite waiting in line. He was patient with every single person, even with all our perhaps novice questions that he would have heard a million times.

Give this guy a raise!

Oh, also, great product, great service. Loving it so far.

Hi Lou,

Wow, what an incredible review! Thank you so much for sharing your experience.

We are beyond thrilled to hear how David looked after you. Staying calm, patient, and fully present while managing a big line is exactly the kind of "one in a million" service we strive for. We will absolutely make sure that David and the team at Amsterdam West see this, shout-outs like this really make their day!

We're so glad you're loving the bike and felt comfortable joining the Swapfiets family. Welcome aboard, and enjoy riding around the city!

Useless repair system.

They have one of the most useless repair systems. It’s like when they change my damaged bike they just give me another damaged bike. I don’t expect new but I’m expecting a repaired one. It’s so annoying.

Hi Lihle,

Thank you for your honest feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience with our swap service has been so frustrating.

It is definitely not our standard to replace one damaged bike with another. Every bike should undergo a thorough check before it is handed over to a member, and it’s clear we’ve let you down in this instance. We understand how annoying it is to expect a functional bike and receive one that still has issues.

We would love the chance to make this right. If you’re open to it, please book a new appointment via the app, and we will ensure the team provides you with a bike that is fully repaired and ready for the road.

Best regards.

Helpful but faulty bike

The support was quick and efficient. I got my bike replaced, but the new bike has some gear issues. So not happy with the fact that a new bike still has issues and this has not been properly checked.

Hi Elif,

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear that the support was quick and efficient, but we are very sorry to hear that your replacement bike isn't in perfect condition.

That definitely shouldn't happen, as we aim to have every bike 100% ready for the road before it reaches a member. We clearly missed the mark on the gear check this time.

Please feel free to book a quick service appointment via the app so we can get those gears adjusted or swap the bike again for one that works perfectly. We want to make sure you’re completely happy with your ride!

Best regards.

The bike I was given had almost flat tires and also the gear changing device is not precise: I switch gear and it doesn't always actually do that.

Hi Enrico,

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your bike was delivered with low tire pressure and imprecise gears. This is certainly not the standard we aim for.

While our bikes are "pre-loved" and may show some wear, they should always function perfectly. Please schedule an appointment through the app as soon as possible. Our team will take a look at the gears and tires to ensure everything is adjusted correctly, or swap the bike for you if needed.

Enjoy the ride.

Great customer service and reliable bikes

Great customer service and easy to reach. The bikes are reliable and you get a biannual check-up for free - if there is any issue with your bike, they fix it or you get a new one. Just super convenient.

Accommodating, with quick service!

I walked in without appointment to add air to my tires and they did so with no hesitation, and by their own initiative tightened my chain (which dramatically improved how the bike rides) and straightened my handlebars. Great service and super fast, very accommodating!

Very good service, very helpful, easy solutions! Only that it took one week to get the appointment to solve the issue and 1 week the bike was not usable.

We are constantly working on increasing our appointment availability to ensure we can get our members back on the road much faster in the future.
