Hi,

Thought I would post my poor service from GoOutdoors.

In prep for the forthcoming camping trip I purchased 4 kids fleeces from said company, website allowed me to choose item and proceed to basket then payment, order confirmed by mail then nothing....

Called them today to be told order cancelled as No Stock, no-one from GoOutdoors had informed me of this before today and as of 5pm items still available to purchase from their online webstore.

This type of service you expect from inexperienced web based companies but not an organisation such as GoOutdoors.

Lost me as a customer... rant over :-)

There have been several comments about gooutdoors online,same story as yourself. I will never use them online but continue to buy instore and take goods away as there are some good bargains to be had.

There really is no excuse. They must scan products in and out for stock control purposes, and it doesn't take much to link this data in real time to the online store.

i they loaded their website properly with goods in stock then the order system wouldn't accept the order, i run the website of an online shop and always load the goods in stock number, when all are ordered the site won't take an order, this seems par for the course with Go Outdoors and thery just don't give a damn

Same story - ordered boots.. then order cancelled 2 weeks later as no stock.  they are apparently 2 weeks behind picking the orders and they do not know if they have stock until they try and fill it.  Not a good system!
