Christmas carrolls

The company is doing its best regarding some modesty in pricing , accuracy in response , delivering notifications and guarantees.
The supply chain seems in a mess some times perhaps for tarif reasons low consumption seasons,or invisible competition cartel tendencies that threaten to turn hobbies to luxurious extravagant trends using common low cost Chinese? workforce as a unique invention that boosts Branding mystification to the stars.
As long as Protestant production ethos keeps its ground there is a chance for EU companies to withstand the turmoils, its good stuff and the margins of accessibility in decency.
Clearance in summer should be more generous the contrast of black products vs white space lower, and some elitists companies (sic) should land their colonial aspirations to a lower ground.
Stagnation is the main EU tendency in our era so company strategies should listen more carefully...

Efficient and excellent service

My orders always have been received well ahead of the scheduled delivery dates. This is most important to me since I live abroad from the selling company and I am always eager to receive the purchased products safely and in time.

They’re very trustworthy and they…

They’re very trustworthy and they respond in emails without a lot of delay and with respect. They have a big range of products that some are more expensive than expected but they also make quite good discounts on many items year round. I’ve bought most of my hiking gear from them.

I am extremely disappointed with this…

I am extremely disappointed with this store and its customer service. The level of professionalism is shockingly low. Every time I contact support, all I get is the same repeated generic sentence: “the process takes time.”

According to EU law — Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU — when a consumer withdraws from an online purchase and returns the product, the seller is legally required to refund the payment within 14 calendar days after receiving the withdrawal notification or evidence of return shipping. There is no legal justification for endless delays or vague excuses.

I followed every rule: I returned the product, provided proof of postage, and waited. I still have not received my €160 refund. Instead of transparency or initiative, I get minimal communication and the same scripted responses.

Honestly, I get more intelligent, useful interaction from a chatbot than from the so-called support team here. The lack of competence, accountability, and respect for customers is truly frightening.

I am wasting time, energy, and patience trying to recover money that should have been returned under EU law.

After this experience, I will never spend a single euro with this company again.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to share your experience. Although we deeply regret that it has given you reason for criticism.

First and foremost, we sincerely apologize that your refund took longer than usual and that our customer service did not meet professional standards.

Due to an unusually high volume of returns at that time, the processing of your refund took longer than usual and we regret that this caused you to feel left hanging.

We deeply regret that this experience has affected your trust in us and take your feedback seriously to improve our service.

Kind regards, Bergfreunde.eu

Never again!!

I returned an item. Followed the exact returns policy. Item was obviously never used. Returned in the same package as it came. Bergfreunde saying they haven't received it. Sent it over 3 months ago. They've stopped returning my emails. Leaves me over €150 out of pocket. Might be a decent company to order from as long as you dont have to return anything. Won't be buying from them again.

Terrible customer service

My order did not arrive. Customer service is terrible. The store has decent products at decent prices, but if you need to reach out to them for any matter, then is hell.

Hello Carina, thank you for your feedback.

We are glad you found our prices appealing, but we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience with your order and our customer service experience.

As our customer service colleague explained, there was an issue delivering the parcel to the provided address. The parcel was then returned to us and systematically processed as a return in our system. We regret the frustration this caused and appreciate your understanding.

Kind regards, Bergfreunde.eu
