Terrible/no customer service. Bought a tee-shirt that is a medium, but too small. Want to return it for a large or ideally a credit note/refund and have been totally ignored, despite several emails. Delivery ticket says returns fine for 30 days, but no way to return it!
ORDER 901321 On the 2nd November 2024, I ordered 3 items for £350 in good faith and written confirmation from Tracksmith that the amount I paid included all duties and vat. Then I received a invoice for £131.40 from DHL for duties and charges. I emailed Tracksmith on the 5th November to ask them to contact DHL and sort out the customs paperwork that Tracksmith had incorrectly completed. 30 emails later and 7 weeks passed with the useless customer services doing NOTHING. I have now opened a Paypal case and asking for the £131.40 so I can pay DHL, as they are now threatening legal action against me for the non payment of the duties and vat! I will not buy again from Tracksmith and I would recommend you do not also if you are from overseas. The time and effort I have wasted on this issue. My bill to Tracksmith would be in the £1,000's. Update 29-12-2024. I was forced to pay the DHL charge of £131.40 or be prosecuted. Tracksmith refused to take responsibility and admit they made errors in the custom paperwork. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY

I ordered 2 versions of a T-shirt and whilst the packing label indicated 2 had been packed, only 1 was sent. I’ve now tried 5 times to contact them and have had no responses. I do like their kit. I’m not sure whether this is deliberately fraudulent (complete lack of response suggests so) or is just the sign of an overwhelmed customer support team. If they could actually fulfil orders I would Order more. I’m to worried about Losing more money to them to place another order.
SCAM!!! The package is "sent from China" therefore it took 4 weeks to "arrive". Once they say it has arrived, they send you a "tracking" platform (which I have never seen) that says its been delivered, but NO local post office knows about this "tracking service".. I need a solution, either my t-shirt or my refund... davidATevipservices.com is my "customer support" which hasn't helped me solve it, only "Check with neighbours, check with local post office, etc"
Terrible customer service and website. Their site cannot process a simple return request and I've been waiting over a week to hear a response from their customer service. This is unacceptable for an outlet that charges $300 for a pair of snickers and $100 for a t-shirt. If they want to follow Rapha's model for "high-end pricing", the also need to follow their model for "high-end" customer service.
I ordered some items from their website on Saturday. They sent me one item from the order on Monday, and didn't tell me the rest of the items were out of stock until Wednesday, by which time all other sizes had gone out of stock as well. Tracksmith need to fix their stocking system.
I ordered run cannonball shirts to take in vacation & the delivery was delayed meaning that I could not take them on my vacation. Once I return back FedEx claimed the delivered, which they didn’t. I open a case with FedEx & notified Tracksmith about it. Almost a month later they send a replacement after having me waiting. I just received the shorts which are Women’s. I have send an e-mail about it and it has been 2 days after I send them an email since they do not have a phone to call to & have not heard back from them. It has been over a month that I paid full price for shorts & I am still waiting for them.
