Having placed an order and received…

GBO are a small family business who work exceptionally hard to get their orders out on time, at this time they are experiencing some staff shortages making it difficult for them to be as efficient as normal, a mistake was made with my order, however this was rectified quickly and I received my correct order in only a few days. I will have no hesitation in using them again.

"No goods despite being ordered almost a month ago. Radio silence from attempts to contact the company via their support email. So glad I ordered via credit card so I can try to recoup my money. I'd be more understanding if someone replied to my emails but literally nothing since my money was taken. Do not order from this company."

same here.

Do not order from this company

Ordered an item, no reply to emails , phone number doesnt work, trying to get a refund paid by paypal so hoping i can.

Company wrote to me after this review asking me to retract it or they wouldnt refund me for 14 days as was their contractual right or i could wait longer for paypal to refund me, what a delightful and professional (not) company.

Excellent Service

Excellent customer service in a difficult time for them. I have found out they are small business and have a had some difficulties their end logistically through no fault of their own. Unfortunately I had to cancel my order but it was dealt with immediately and professionally and I will be using them again. Many thanks Nick

Terrible service

Terrible service, item still hasn't arrived, been order over a month now. It has been paid in full, and not cheap!
No reply via email, and phone line straight to answer service saying they are ill!

Hi Stuart,
Yes I am currently unable to answer the phone 24/7 as I am in a wheelchair trying to run a business by myself which has been explained to you in an email. I apologise for any delays and I am determined to get back on track and fulfil all orders ASAP.
Thank you
Johnny

I’ve experienced the same issues as…

I’ve experienced the same issues as others are reporting, time ordered and paid for but then radio silence.

Emails not replied to, phone lines disconnected and the online chat isn’t actually that.

Bank is doing a charge-back because it’s been nearly a month since order was made.

Update 14/11

Still haven’t heard anything from the store, instead of writing a response on here the store could have done something about my order. Bank has had to issue a chargeback but I need to wait another 30days

Do not use this website, you will regret it

Edit: 10th January update

This joke of a company have contested my chargeback claim despite not having sent the items and have ignored all my attempts of making contact. Scam company

AVOID AVOID AVOID!!

I ordered a pair of kids Hunter Wellies on their website as it worked out £10 cheaper than going through Hunters.
After 5 days I still hadn’t received a tracking number so chased my order. They were quick to reply fobbing me off about being a small company and shipping takes awhile (7-10days). After 7 days I emailed them again asking to cancel my order as it was taking so long. Received an automated response saying we will be in touch within 2 days. No reply. I chased them again asking for the order to be cancelled and still got no response.
So have just emailed them again. (I’ve ordered the same wellies direct through hunters and they arrived within 2 days)
Obviously a scam of a company and I would highly recommend avoiding. Wish I had read the reviews before ordering.

Refund eventually received

I bought a pair of boots which never arrived and it took a lot of chasing over five weeks to get a refund. The owner contacted me after five weeks and gave a full explanation of what seems to have been a genuinely exceptional set of circumstances and a refund has now been issued. Review therefore updated.

Purchased a Minox monocular from this company. Very efficient customer service, rapid delivery and a top quality product that surpasses expectations. Payment was fast and secure.

Would recommend Great British Outfitters to anyone!

The worst place ever

The worst place ever, total scammers
Don’t even know how no one takes action and do something to ban them so they can stop robbing people
Never order from that place
