Polite but incompetent. After I placed an order, came back to me several times to say the item in the colour ordered wasn't available. When I finally said I'd prefer to cancel the orde, suddenly the i... See more

Montbell down foot warmers

Good customer service, speedy international shipping (would have been good to see sturdier packaging but my item arrived in perfect condition regardless). Down foot warmers are an amazing piece of kit for a very reasonable price. Great quality, practical design, nice materials, super warm and comfortable. Overall, very happy. Thanks Montbell!

Japan quality products

Great products first bought in Japan. Great style and quality. Easy ordering and delivery, Had to replace a purchase set due to size and didn’t appreciate having to pay for it.

So helpful

So helpful. I was stuck with a worn out and leaky jacket in a remote country town. I had a tiny window for delivery of a new jacket. Staff were so helpful. They seriously went out of their way to do the best they could to express mail my gear for me. It arrived in time, saved me a lot of bother & my new jacket & umbrella were my best gear for the rest of my 63 day hike.

Easy to deal with..

Easy to deal with... if you have a great product and the customer service is good, then you get us coming back and back over time.
Ordering and delivery no problem, and given that we know the product...what more needs to be said?

It’s when things go wrong that you get the best insight into commitment to customer service

The service I received from Montbell Australia was excellent. I purchased the 80L wheeled duffel. Unfortunately, there was a manufacturing defect which became apparent on its first use. I took a photo and sent with a plate explanatory email and received a full refund within hours of my email being sent. These issues happen from time to time and I think the way businesses deal with them is the best indication of commitment to customer service. I will be back.

these shirts are magnificent

the shirts are magnificent- better than the plain North Face (yes i like them too) having the tiny check pattern hides any little splots that occur in restaurants. Can be worn all day then out to dinner in same shirt. Love it!

The order didn’t ship for ages

The order didn’t ship for ages, I emailed and asked why and got a rather arrogant reply saying they were busy and that they’re a small family company… that excuse just doesn’t work in online business anymore. Ten days later my order still hadn’t shipped, I emailed again and they just cancelled my order and I got a refund. If you’re going to be in the online business you better work out how to actually ship your items within a reasonable time frame and not use the term “we’re a small family business” and another tip, try not to be arrogant with your customers!!! Never ordering again.

Thank you for your honest feedback. Please accept our sincere apologies, we strive to have excellent customer service and clearly did not achieve this for your order. While we are a small family business you are correct that orders need to be dispatched within a timely manner.

I have looked into our communications with you and regret that you feel that our responses were arrogant, the intent was only to clearly communicate the status of your order.

We cancelled and fully refunded the order at your request on 11 June given that we were unable to fulfill the order within your timeframe, we let you know that this had been done and let you know that your local store should have stock of the items that you had originally ordered.

Once again, please accept our apologies for any inconvenience that the delay may have caused you. We will review our internal processes and external communications and implement changes based on your feedback.

If you have any further questions or concerns about our service or your order please don't hesitate to contact us via shop@montbelloutdoor.com.au where we can assist you.

No communication

I am dissatisfied with the customer service. There has been no communication regarding the status of my orders, and I was charged before it was confirmed that the products were in stock.
I contacted them to inquire about the delay in receiving my products, but instead, they only refunded my payment without giving any explanation.
I am pleased with the quality of the products. However, it was not a pleasant experience having to contact them initially.

Hi there, thank you for letting us know that we did not fulfill your expectations. We're disappointed that our service was not up to scratch as this is something that we work hard on, so we will review our internal processes so that this does not occur in the future.
