Backcountry will ship your items via Ontrtac delivery service. Well known or stealing and losing packages. Well mine was sent back to vendor withiut my knowledge. Same issue with 2 other deliveries in same month. DO NOT ORDER FROM BACK COUNTRY UNTIL THEY CHANGE THIER SHIPPER

Horrible Customer Service: Beware if you are shopping from outside the contiguous United States. I ordered a bike pad for my truck, which was on sale ($45), and paid $30 in shipping to Alaska. Steep and Cheap/Backcountry sent me the wrong pad. They offered to make it right if I shipped it back to them at my cost and paid an additional $30 to have the correct pad shipped to me. The customer service was not friendly and told me I was financially responsible for dealing with their mistake. I guess when you live in the state of true backcountry, Alaska, you, as a customer, are not valued or treated with courtesy, as you are outside their target customer base. In this age, when it's okay not to take ownership of one's mistakes and actions, Backcountry follows this as a corporate philosophy.

There customer service horrible!! Now because of their fault my grandson won't be getting his shi pants nor can he use his gift card for something else cause it takes them five days to put back on card! It started out bad wit an invalid gift card to find out it was valid go thru the ordering process with one of there people tells me all good to find out order canceled because not in stock then this with having to wait for monies to be put back on card! Bad bussiness!! I should be compensated for their mistake!! Its xmas and you messed it up!!

I don't do feedback very often, however for the service, advise and help from Patrick Gibbs, more than happy to do so. He helps me with all my order, very responsive both email and phone call, provided his honest feedback. In addition, he keeps mentioning to me to be very picky in my orders and if it doesn't feel right just let me know - feel free to call or email. Like his attitude means a lot a customer. He even said he will provide me status update of your order... MANY THANKS to Patrick Gibbs

Their customer service was awful. They use gladly so it's a chat conversation where you are not getting feedback in real time at all. They offer discounts but some items are ineligible but they only way you can find out if they are is to go through the hassle of checking on each item by putting it in your cart.

I would like a refund on my Summit+ membership. I got the membership to get a discount on the Flylow Bib, but my size and color was not in stock, so I don't need the membership.

Ordered hiking shoes for a trip because they said it would arrive days before I left. The day I was supposed to receive the product I looked it up and saw it would arrive the next week, after I had left. Infuriating. Out over $100 and totally unprepared for my trip

I value having a dedicated Gearhead available to help me out... and Luke T is amazing!! I've had a few special needs across recent orders and Luke addressed everything super fast. He's just a call or email away. Love working with Backcountry and really love Luke's above and beyond customer service.

I could not be more satisfied with all of Luke’s insightful advice, and help in putting together a ski and binding package for my daughter. He absolutely went above and beyond and did everything he possibly could to help me out. I could not be any happier with backcountry.com and customer service I received from Luke. I wish the star rating went to 100. He would get 100 stars!

They honestly suck, i tried to order a sleeping bag and they messed up and it sold to someone else. i settled for a different option and the order say pending for 9 days no one reached out about it. i reached out when i didnt have it yet and they corrected it with new payment method since paypal doesnt work for some reason. Honestly just lacking in so many ways!!!!

I hate them. They sent the wrong item and then would only refund me for the item NOT the shipping. I never got the correct item..

While Backcountry has a fairly robust product mix, it's really not what makes it stand out among outdoor etailers. Instead, its team of gearheads—personalized experts who advise on products—deliver a level of customer service I thought had gone by the wayside. With age and health, some of my abilities have diminished; these shifts have translated into changes in size/fit. My personal gearhead Addie has supported me every step of the way, offering ideas, proactively tracking product availability, consistently going every extra mile, and exercising patience and grace in the quest to find the right fit. So, I can comfortably get out and do the things I've always loved.

They have some good deals, but dealing with their warranty people was a giant pain. They offered me a refund but then never followed up with a shipping label, until, finally, I called the company. Waste of time!

Bot verify prevents creating account with unnecessary, time wasting attempts to satisfy. I spent 20 min unsuccessfully. Never trust these guys! Poor customer service. Makes me ❤️ REI

Moving into MTB XC racing and new to some of this w/ new technology. Buying process was seamless, got a great deal. Constant communication via email w/ Patrick G. kept me informed and answered my questions. To top it off they were like 5 days ahead of schedule for my build!
