Snow+Rock Recenzje 

Quite frankly incompetent customer service - wasted a significant amount of time, effort and money. Massively below basic expectations.

Contacted customer service nearly two weeks ago to discuss buying a snowboard (certain colour option preferred). I was told by the agent that the colourway I wanted would 100% be available and sent.

Few days later the wrong colour arrived, not an issue, mistakes happen, they arranged a postage label to send the board back and advised to contact the to arrange a second board (the correct colourway to be sent). I attempted to post the board back (using the postage label) at two locations, neither would take due to the label not being for the correct package size, had to drive to the nearest store to return the board.

Once returned I contacted customer service again, who once AGAIN advised that the correct colour would be sent and confirmed there would be no errors with the delivery this time.

Second board arrived this morning - wrong colourway. Now I'm left with the burden of attempting to return this item again and not only that, no longer have time to arrange an alternative prior to my trip.

Absolutely shocking service - customer service agents clearly not trained / lying during conversations. I'd recommend avoiding.

Update: I'm aware there was no option to select the colour on the website - which is why I reached out to the customer service team on multiple occasions to discuss delivery options, I have transcripts from them stating there was a 0% chance of receiving a certain colour once they have arranged it - obviously a lie.

Secondly, I'm now having issues (9/12/25) returning the second wrong delivery as there are no stores local to me and the team seem unable to organise an appropriate delivery label/confirm that the label is appropriate - I'm not willing to waste anymore of my time/money attempting to return this to a post office that won't take the return.

Snow and Rock has lost the whole concept of customer service. They are undermanned in their stores, which means you just cannot be served if there is more then two people in the store. Ordering something online, you will never get the parcel. I have spoken to customer services twice and despite promising to find out what has gone on, have never heard anything since.

I am going to have to resort to going to my credit card company to get a refund for a parcel I never got.

Will not go near them again.

Laura in the boot fitting department was fantastic. Her knowledge and understanding of our requirements was brilliant. I’ll be returning to this shop to buy my new snowboard boots purely due to her.

12DEC2025: In reply to the response below, I sent a formal complaint to Snow+Rock which was pretty much ignored. I will again reaffirm - AT NO POINT was I abusive to any of the staff, in fact I was speechless at the over-reaction by the store manager. I am particularly concerned by the implication that my behaviour was abusive or intimidating. As a woman of colour, I am very aware of how quickly calm assertiveness can be misinterpreted or mischaracterised, and it is troubling that such language has been used without evidence. I absolutely resent these accusations, and expect a factual explanation of how this conclusion was reached as I have followed up via email.

I had an appalling experience at this store and want to warn other customers. I tried to return a pair of Brooks shoes I bought after a gait analysis (so I got £15 off). I was told at purchase that I could get a refund, and Snow+Rock’s own policy says full-priced items can be refunded within 30 days.

The staff member who claimed to be the manager refused to issue a refund because I had the £15 off, incorrectly assuming it was an item on sale or clearance, and insisted the refund should be “store credit only.” I asked him why I could not have a refund, to which he did not even try to explain, but responded, "It's store policy everywhere". When I explained that I hadn’t been told this upon purchase, otherwise I would never have made a purchase from that store as it was a lot of money, he accused me of “harassing” him, threatened to call security and asked me to leave the store without any refund at all. I then approached security myself, who confirmed they hadn't seen anything happen. I did not raise my voice, insult or verbally abuse anyone. I simply asked for a refund.

I could not purchase any other shoe from the store due to my gait, so I was worried a lot of money had been wasted, and I was not going to leave without some type of refund. He then said he would only process my refund if I apologised to him, called me a “Karen,” and claimed all the customers were “on his side” as he tried to humiliate me in front of the whole store. He eventually proceeded with the refund, telling me he was "doing me a favour", adding a false note on my return saying I was rude and aggressive, and that he had been working "five days in a row" so I should be nice to him. Having a bad day doesn't mean you take it out on customers. He also told me I was now BANNED from the store and never to return.

This was my first experience here as a customer, and it has completely ruined what should have been a positive moment as a new runner. When I got home and checked the returns policy, it was clear that he had completely misunderstood or misrepresented the situation, OR I had been given the incorrect information about the discount with the gait analysis (I would have happily paid that £15). Had he spoken to me respectfully, we could have had a civil conversation to clear up the misunderstanding, but he chose to be unprofessional and rude because he was having a bad day and was tired.

I will not be returning to this store, and will be advising others to avoid this store including all of my running club members. The gait analysis also showed I had a neutral foot, but the arch analysis downstairs showed massive pronation; so beware, the gait analysis is not accurate.

I came into the Snow and Rock Cotswold Covent Garden shop to ask about hopeful vegetarian friendly new winter gloves (according to my phone I came in on Friday the 14th November I think).

I was served by Kenzui, Emil & Jake who consistently made a solid effort I felt and I'm trying to say thank you! Also the sorry I get his name but the security man on shift was friendly to me too: thank you guys!

Hi,

I came into your Covent Garden store this morning for a pre booked running gait analysis. I was really excited for it and had put aside money to buy some new running shoes. I’m really disappointed with the experience, so left feeling quite gutted. The iPad app wasn’t working and so the running gait advisor (who was very nice) just filmed me on the treadmill on the normal camera. But she didn’t know how to analyse the run. 5 mins after this she told me that it was time to go on her break & swapped out with another colleague. But this colleague hardly said anything to me, didn’t know answers to my questions and left me feeling like a bit of a lemon asking questions about my feet and which trainers would suit best. I wasn’t emailed any of the analysis, like I was told I was. I’m really disappointed because I don’t typically spend a lot of money on things like this, but I had intentionally set aside my savings to treat myself after working hard with my running. I had no clue which trainers to buy - or what trainers would be good for my feet - so I left empty handed and £15 down. It’s really not worth the money to pay for this analysis, as I had no expertise, advice or even basic customer service. Would love my £15 back really :(

Visited the Chertsey store for ski boot fitting and came out with a well fitting pair of ski boots and confident that they will serve me well.

It's safe to say that ski boot fitting is a very subjective aspect, and you do place a large amount of faith in the boot fitter to assess and recommend the right boots for you.

I have been to multiple stores (not restricted to S&R) for boot fitting, and can honestly say that the experience I had at the Chertsey store was one of (if not the) best I've had so far.

The boot fitter (Bri) was able to identify every issue with my feet and identify the perfect boots to satisfy my somewhat large range of requirements, and over the appointment was able to zero in on the perfect boots for me for performance and fit.

I'm glad I made the journey there and would recommend to friends/family.

I had an excellent experience thanks to Sean. He was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and led his team brilliantly throughout my appointment. His professionalism and warm approach made a real impression, and I would absolutely be a return customer based on this experience. What a guy! Nat

The only shipping option is £7 which is ludicrous and now I need to return the item and they are going to charge me £5 to return it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

05/11 - I have sent the information as requested

Rosie in Ski

Rosie helped me get fitted for a new pair of ski boots that I’m planning on using for this upcoming ski season. She was very knowledgeable and was extremely kind and patient with me during my appointment. If I, or someone I know ever need anything ski-related, I will always send them to Rosie. Keep up the good work!!

Non existent customer service. Delivery update deemed too big to deliver by every - it was a rucksack! Told to get in touch with snow and rock. Can't speak to anyone. On top of that the 'delivery' is two days late. I expect a lot more from Snow and Rock.

Was looking for a particular North Face bag and the North Face shop in Dublin did not have it and suggested I contact Snow and Rock. I called them, the chap was very helpful on phone, had the bag in stock and held on to it for me until I came in to see and explained everything about it in a very knowledgeable manner.

Great customer service for ski boot fitting at Trafford Park Snow Centre Manchester!

We frequent snow+rock at Trafford Park regularly to window shop and staff are always friendly and polite. This week we booked to be fitted for ski boots. Shaun was extremely patient with myself and my partner and was able to make personal recommendations that would suit our feet, legs and ski ability. We were given a choice of brands and features and he nothing was to much trouble. Mark also helped Shaun with the custom insoles to save time. Both men were knowledgeable, helpful and supportive and made the experience fun. Thank you for all your help.

Quality products, and outstanding staff, special shout out to Maisie at the filton store who has been so patient and helpful during each visit. Would highly recommend this shop and their lovely staff!

Visited the Exeter store looking for running shoes. The staff were very helpful but they did not have the size I wanted. I was not local and they arranged free delivery to my home of the size I wanted. Unfortunately the shoes were a bit small so I ordered two more pairs in different sizes from their website. These arrived the next day. I found the right pair and returned the other two for a refund. Excellent service.

The vast majority of my reviews in Trust Pilot are very positive.
Placed an order for 4 small items to collect at Covent Garden . On arrival I checked in with front desk & was sent downstairs to collect order . Downstairs I was given 2 parts or order and directed to 3rd floor to collect remainder . There I was given 3rd item & directed to ground floor to collect last item. Back at the front desk I asked for the 4th item and was met with a blank stare . I left without the item . Maybe the chap on the 3rd floor showed a little interest , otherwise I definitely felt I was interrupting everyone's day .
The worst customer service I have endured for many a year
Following my review I was contacted directly by Snow & Rock . Advised they were reviewing their store collection process & my feedback would be acted upon. To apologise for the inconvenience and try to restore some faith in the business I have been offered a nominal voucher ( it was only a small value order), you can donate it to charity.
A reasonable response to my review .

We got ski boots for a beginner and more experienced skier, staff were helpful and knowledgable and we're going back for a couple of tweaks at our next visit to the Snowdome

Me and my partner visited Manchester Chill Factore branch for a boot fitting with Sean. Sean was great. Really easy to talk to and he was very accurate and knowledgeable. Made sure we were happy every step of the way. We not only left with a great pair of boots but also learnt so much. After an hour on the slope we are really happy with our boots and would definitely recommend booking a fitting. Thanks again Sean!

We visited the Chertsey store this morning having booked a 9am ski boot fitting 3 weeks ago (for 2 people). We were told when we arrived that they hadn’t spotted the booking and had no one who could help for 2 hours. We weren’t able to wait so a complete waste of a 2 hour round trip. Can only assume it was the manager that spoke to us but apparently there was nothing he could do… very frustrating experience!
