I ordered a yoga mat over 7 days ago…

I ordered a yoga mat over 7 days ago and was told it was dispatched on the day ordered. Downloaded the app shop so that I can track the parcel however the status is “still waiting for details” I have tried all emails and they has just bounced back, I think this could be due to a full mailbox. I had also called both numbers available, one number took me to creatures customer service and the other wouldn’t let me leave a message as the mailbox is full. This is really frustrating and I was starting to doubt if this is a legitimate company as there is no communication at all. I wish I could find some help and find out where my package is

Apologies again.

Beware if you have to return an item

Beware if you have to return an item. It took 4 emails and at least 5 phone messages left eventually I got my money back after 30 working days to finally receive it. Never again.

Chris, our apologies for the delay in refunding, totally unacceptable, and you are correct, we were outside out usual 14 days, so apologies for this. Unfortunately our warehouse were overwhelmed by the number of Christmas returns, but this is no excuse, so apologies from all of us here.

Boots returned , refund eventually..

I ordered some boots , when they arrived they did not fit comfortably, I returned them by Post Office signed for, I tracked my delivery and saw they had been delivered. I have had no refund or any reply to my enquiry to ask where my refund was. Simply Hike is part of a bigger conglomerate , their phone numbers cut off and they do not answer emails. I have now been contacted and a refund issued.

4 out of 5 Items not Delivered

Ordered 5 items on 10th August.
1 item delivered promptly, the other 4 just says "preparing". No answer from email. No one picks up the phone or answers voicemail message.
Absolutely terrible service! Avoid!!!

terrible service

Shoes ordered 23/5. Delivered quickly but wrong size. Returned 28/5.
Almost two months now and still yet to receive a refund. Emails and calls are unanswered. Awful after service. Hopefully this review might prompt some action from Simply Hike

Difficult to get support but satified overall

Ordered a shopping trolley on 17th June, received notification of despatch 3 days later, ETA this week. Downloaded the Shop app for shipment tracking but no updates are available, emailed them but no reply, called them but despite eventually getting through to the right number (as the one shown on the website is not it) I got the automated response that they are 'unable to take this call, leave a message and we will TRY to get back to you within 24 hours'. They did eventually get back to my email and thankfully the parcel was due to be delivered today, which it now has. Some issues with getting support but ultimately a positive experience

Great service from this company

Great service from this company.
I ordered a few items, all items arrived well packed and in reasonable time and the prices were competitive.

Postage was also free, which made it a good deal.

Ordered some sandals on the 1st May

Ordered some sandals on the 1st May. They haven't been sent out- the order still says "preparing". I have emailed them but not had a reply. The customer service telephone number doesn't work. Avoid this company!

Stacey, this is sad, after all the hard work locating the Fedex tracking for you yesterday. As you know, the order is being delivered by Fedex today. Apologies we couldn't get the tracking to you sooner, but as explained, we sent this direct from our EU supplier. Hopefully once your Sandals arrive you may find it in you to adjust your rating. Cheers Stacey.

Defo should have read these reviews…

Defo should have read these reviews before ordering lucky enough it was only £12.90 that I’ve been scammed for. Of course they haven’t got back to my email

Mia, we can't see an email from you, can you please email us again now and we will help you out. We are NOT scammers, we are a reputable company based in Lincolnshire, but we can't see your email.

ADDED: I think I have found it, was it your husbands socks that were ordered?

ADDED: Customer refunded, completely our fault for not seeing the email, I apologise for this.

Buyers Beware - Dishonest

If I could give this company no stars then I would.

Item has not been received after 3 weeks. I heard back from customer services after a three week delay and they said tracking now says delivered.

I have checked DPD website tracking and it still says they are waiting to receive the parcel.

Please avoid this company. From my experience and their dishonest. response I believe this is a scam website. My payment went to a company called Wandering Hike Ltd and this is not mentioned anywhere on the invoice.

I have been refunded by Paypal thankfully.

Simply Hike are not to be trusted!

I have now received a reply from the company to say I was sent the last pair they had. However, these are still for sale on the website and in my size!

I have sent a screenshot to the company of these shoes still for sale on the internet and in my basket in my size so maybe Simply Hike need to sort their website out as well as their customer service.

Sorry you had to leave this feedback. We did refund you once you informed us that the item was not delivered, but we DID send the item by DPD, and we have raised a claim with them. You had the last remaining pair, so we don't have any more to send, but we did say you could keep them for Free if the item eventually turns up. We have tried to sort this out for you in an honest way, but I apologise if we didn't reply to your email quick enough. Apologies.

EDITED: Michaela, this item is NOT available on our website in your size, as we don't have any. I find it extremely annoying that you say 'NOT TO BE TRUSTED', when we have explained, and refunded, and filed a complaint with DPD. It is your opinion, but we DO send out hundreds of orders every single day, to our loyal and satisfied customers.

EDITED: Thanks for the screenshot. It can still be in your basked as the cookie would save it, but it won't allow you to check out with it as the stock is ZERO. I've just checked again, and it is definitely ZERO.

Customer service does not exist

Customer service does not exist, I ordered wellies (H156551) they arrived, however the strap wasn't working and I wanted to return them, this was back in January, however after several emails and calls, still no response whatsoever. SCAMMERS

You replied as soon as a comment went up on trust pilot, now you have vanished again.

Please can you let me know the email you have been emailing? I cna't find your emails. I have emailed your account, and we will get this sorted for you. We are certainly NOT 'Scammers!'.

The last email we received was 07/03. You opened a Chargeback, and we accepted this. So the refund is on it's way to you, it was sent by the card company on 12/03/25. The issue is now closed.

You have our email if you'd like to email us again.

If it requires me to write negative…

If it requires me to write negative feedback about your company in order to trigger a response from you then I'm quite prepared to do that. I have emailed you and called you (including leaving my number for you to respond) numerous times - all without a response.
Order number: H156710. Contact me and explain where my order is and when I can expect to receive it. It's no use informing the courier that you have an item for them to collect to then not giving it to them! This is not normal to communicate with a company via a feedback forum, but you have left me with no alternative. Kindly address this issue now before it becomes necessary to escalate further.

Apologies, the customer service has not been good enough, I apologise for this. I contacted DPD, and they can not locate the parcel. We sent you the last EU45 we had, and now it's lost. I have therefore refunded the order this evening for you. I have also emailed you back to your email address. If we can get some mroe stock within the next 30 days, we will send you a Free Pair, no cost at all. I apologise again that you had to leave this review in order to get a response, and I apologise for DPDs lack or service for your order.

Poor customer service

Wellington boots arrived and were very comfortable for my daily dog walks. They were cleaned and dried everyday and the appropriate care spray used but after less than a month the right boot cracked and split. Have written to Simplyhike twice to request replacement or refund without response. Will never use this company again.

Janice, we have emailed you twice this morning to offer a replacement pair, why now give a rating on here when we are trying to sort this for you? This is totally unacceptable when we have reached out to you, and asked you to call us, and you haven't. So disappointing. It's not even our product and you are leaving a rating on product. Please email us back with the information and we will replace as we have offered you.

10 Star Service - Excellent

I looked at the recent reviews and was slightly apprehensive about ordering, but they had the product I wanted at a good price, so I ordered late Thursday night.

I was given an expected delivery by the end of the following week.

Yesterday I got confirmation that it was with DPD and would arrive today - full tracking details were given by DPD together with a one hour window.

My steps were delivered this morning some 30 hours after ordering them. Excellent product and service - I can only recommend Simply Hike.

Ordered wellies from simply hike

Ordered wellies from simply hike, first time I've ordered from this site.
Wellies arrived, too small so followed their returns procedure and sent back with royal mail tracked.
Emailed to say I have had no refund and no correspondence, still nothing back from simply hike. Sent another 2 emails since... and still, nothing! So I have no boots and down £58 ... absolutely appalling service, simply hike should be shut down. Quick enough to answer to bad reviews to justify your bad service... give people their money back. Please don't reply with "did you pick up the phone?"
You are clearly aware you have customera emailing you that are going into Spam, so there's no excuse. Sort it out!!

All refunded for you now Holly, as per the 14 days. Apologies we are busy and we can't always refund as soon as the item arrives back to us. We take the comments on board and we will do our best from here on in. Apologies we missed the email on the 22nd. Always pick up the phone, it's good to talk. Apologies again.

Absolutely shocking company

Absolutely shocking company. I've placed an order over a week ago. Needed to change the order straight away when it was placed as I ordered a child's cap and not an adults cap as the advert on their website didn't state it was a child's cap until I received the order confirmation. So I emailed them straight away after receiving my confirmation. No reply, I called them on the phone number supplied and e eventually get through to an answer phone, leave a message explaining but again no response. I've emailed and called numerous times without response. The cap still hasn't been shipped and I'm £17 out of pocket. Absolute scam artists DO NOT go near them as they take your money and don't send the product out. I just wished I'd of looked at the reviews on here before buying as what everyone is saying about this company is true. I've has to take the issue up with my bank now to try and get my money back. Never again

Keith, we are certainly NOT 'Scam artists!', we are a reputable company and we are available on the phone to talk with, but we have been on annual recess for 2 weeks, we explained this in the email when you ordered, and again when we sent an fulfilment update. I have checked the emails and can't see any email from you, so we are checking the spam folders now. The item stated KIDS on the website, but we can certainly change this for you.

Apologies you didn't see our email concerning the short wait for stock. We have been in the office since Monday, but we haven't had any call from you.
We have emailed you to sort out your concerns.

10/7 I ordered a pair of shoes

10/7 I ordered a pair of shoes, 8 days later, I would have expected delivery by now, I received an email saying that stock was having to be shipped from Germany. Why, if you may have to ship from Germany, which you clearly do on a regular basis, after reading feedback, why do you not state this on your site? People could then make the choice on whether they’ll risk the wait and not have to listen to your excuses and pathetic accusation led apologies. If I had read your reviews, I would definitely not have bought from you, purely on the way you reply.
31/7 although I’ve had an email from dpd, I’ve still not had a delivery. 3 weeks and waiting. Why do you feel it’s acceptable behaviour?

Have you called us to speak with us? We have a telephone line you can call us on and offer advice and updates. Our website clearly states the delivery time on all items advertised, so this is available when you order. We can not see here who you are, so we are unable to email you. I wonder if you are the customer who ordered the New Balance Trainers and started the Chargeback, when they are here ready to send to you?? Please call us on our helpline and we will help you to find your parcel, but until we hear from you, we are unable to help you.
