Great service

They did exactly what they promised to do, and payment reached my bank account within 24 hours of me dropping the envelope at the Post Office.

Quite impressive in terms of delivery order

Very impressive delivery turnaround compared to other bullion dealers who claim to have both new and pre-owned coins in stock but still quote delivery times of up to two weeks. Based on my experience so far, I would definitely recommend Hatton Garden Metals and look forward to continuing to purchase from them in the future.

It was so easy doing business with Hatton Garden metals.
The website was very straightforward to use.
I found my way around the valuation estimate of my scrap silver with ease.
I was sent a payment offer within a few hours after my parcel arrived at Hattons and payment followed into my bank account before the end of the day.
The whole process from beginning to end was amazing.
Thank you for a brilliant experience

Flabbergasted! Exceptional service!

Flabbergasted! Posted 23 random gold pieces of jewellery yesterday late afternoon and by 4.30pm today I have £2300 deposited in my account. What an exceptional, professional and honest service. I got this recommendation from the Which magazine and could not be happier. Would highly recommend. Astonished at the amount. Thank you!

What an easy streamlined process!

What an easy streamlined process. I packaged my silver, arranged collection and was able to track its receipt at HGM. It was collected Sat, paid on Tuesday and amount matched expectations. Thank you.

How do I get in contact with them?

How do I get in contact with them?! I have tried repeatedly to get through on the telephone number given on their website… there is never any answer despite my call ‘being important to them’!
Their website stated that an appointment is necessary - and last time I went to their office without one they were closed with no prior notice! They don’t answer the phone or reply to their messages left on their website…

Hi Gilly,

We are sorry to see you have left us a 2 star review of your recent experience with our team, We unfortunately were experiencing internet issues when you a were attempting to contact our team as we have just moved premises. And due to the market volatility we have had to operate at a reduced counter service to maintain processing all the postal parcels we have been inundated with. I'm very glad the head of our coin and bar department called you directly and was able to assist you and we look forward to welcoming you back for a 5 star worthy experiencing in the future,

All the best,

The HGM Team.

THIEFS

BUNCH OF SCUMMY LYING THIEFS! WARNING KEEP AWAY FROM THESE CROOKS!

DONT FALL FOR THE POSITIVE REVIEWS, THEY PAY VARIOUS ONLINE SITES THAT OFFER TRUSTPILOT REVIEWS FOR MONEY WITH FUNDS THEY STEAL FROM THE POOR VICTIMS THEY SCAM!

I recommend ALL who check this firm on trustpilot to FILTER on the 1 star reviews and read them... you will soon notice a pattern emerging of their scam/dirty tactics! the negatives are the ACTUAL genuine reviews you can trust instead of the fake positive paid for reviews.

Sent them my scrap gold on 5th Feb, they received on the 6th of FEB.

They claimed some of my items where non-gold and that the other items that were gold were 15.38 grams when in reality the other item in question was 22 grams and i weighed it 4 times on 2 different scales, DECLINED their offer as its clearly a scam that they are trying to pay me 7 grams less gold!

asked these crooked thiefs to send my item back and it is now Monday 16th FEB and i have not recieved anything.

Emailed these fraudsters 4 times to seek an update of the return of my items and for them to provide me a tracking and i have STILL NOT HAD A RESPONSE from these crooks. They are not answering calls either.

The whole experience has been HELL from start to finish, this is the WORST scummiest firm i've ever dealt with in my life.

I've now logged a case with ActionFraud and logged a complaint with the Financial Ombudsman, I had emailed this rogue firm a complaint and they have simply ignored to acknowledge it which gives me rights to take this to FOS, am now in talks with my solicitor to commence legal action! they advertise same day pay and processing.... BULL, I needed my money quickly and these crooks have messed me around from start to finish, and are now NOT sending my item back and not answering emails and calls.

WORD OF ADVICE, KEEP AWAY FROM THESE THIEVING CHARLATONS, ONCE THEY HAVE YOUR GOLD, YOU ARE EITHER FORCED INTO ACCEPTING THEIR CON-OFFER (THEY WILL KNOCK A LOT OFF THE PRICE UNDER FALSE PRETENSES, OR LIE ABOUT THE WEIGHT OR CLAIM YOUR ITEM IS PLATED OR A DIFFERENT CARAT) AND IF YOU DECLINE THEIR SCAM OFFER AND WANT YOUR ITEMS BACK... THE FUN BEGINS! GOOD LUCK, THESE THIEFS HAVE RUN OFF WITH MY GOODS AND THINK THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT!

I'll be going down to their London counter and making a film to post on the internet to warn others of their SCAM!

YOU THINK YOU CAN STEAL FROM ME???

JUST WAIT TILL THE COUNTY COURT LETTER LANDS ON YOUR DOORSTEP YOU ROTTEN THIEFS!

We have made several attempts to contact you by telephone and have also sent email correspondence in order to resolve this matter directly. As we have not received a response, and given the seriousness of the allegations made in your review, we feel it is necessary to respond publicly.

Your statements are wholly inaccurate and do not reflect the facts of this transaction. As previously explained, your items remain securely in our possession and are available to be returned to you free of charge, in accordance with our terms and conditions. The return process is normally authorized through our customer portal, rather than via a public review platform.

We stand fully by our assessment of your items, both in respect of precious metal content and weight. Our valuation was conducted in line with standard industry testing procedures, and we are entirely confident in its accuracy.

We would respectfully ask that you respond to our email to confirm that you wish for the items to be returned. Upon confirmation, we will arrange prompt return of all items and consider the matter concluded.

We take our reputation extremely seriously and do not accept unfounded or defamatory allegations against our business. We remain willing to resolve this matter professionally and without further escalation from our end.

Absolutely first class service

Absolutely first class service from start to finish. Got a quote on the afternoon of day one, received postage pack on the morning of day two and posted the completed package at lunchtime of day two and received the agreed sum of money into my account on the afternoon of day three. Cannot recommend this company highly enough.

What a fantastic company!

Hatton Gardens service was amazing. They were quick to send a postage envelope to send our items, they kept us informed when they were received and during and after the valuation when they needed to. The valuations we received (we sent items on two separate occasions) were much higher than we expected and they paid us very quickly. Fantastic service and I would most definitely use them again. Thank you Karen and the rest of the Hatton Garden Metals team.
