r.e UK bullion reply to this review. Read the details of this review. Read UK bullions reply which obfuscates and tries to hoodwink... This complaint is about business ethics and honesty. Not about price. What you have at UK Bullion are liers, cheats, and frauds... Everything is screenshotted and phone calls listed... These guys are not to be trusted at any leve.... And to the replier of this review I would sack your staff as a matter of urgency as they are liers ... You wasted two days of my time. Four hours trying to find the premisis on a day when road works plagued the M8 and city centre .. UK bullion a dreadful experience thanks for that .. and anymore obfuscation il be seeking legal redress if not police investigation... facebook review etc here i come.

At 13.25 Thursday October 23 i was given a kruggerand price of 2998 .. gold at this time was 3074 pounds....

Goes to office to sell the next day at 11.20 gold price was 3056 was offered 2916??? some 80 pounds per krug lower than offered the previous day

staff then lies to me about gold price chance saying it changed 100 pounds NOT

underhand not to be trusted and think the punters are daft.. lol

Dear James,
Many thanks for taking the time to leave us a review,
I am sorry you were not happy with the price you were offered for your Krugerrands today. The initial live price you were offered was 4.5% below spot price which is competitive in the market. I did hear the conversation and asked who you spoke to yesterday however, you left before I could get any information. As you can see from our other reviews we pride ourselves on delivering great service and offering competive rates. All sales are open to negotiation.
Apologies we did not meet your expectasions today.

Kind Regards,
Sandra Kilcullen

Good old fashioned service

Very nice staff and very easy to deal with. The admin process is a bit sluggish and overly paper based.

Dear Janeks, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I can see that you completed your sale with us and where given 3% below spot price which is highly competitive. We are always open to negotiation at the time of your sale however once this has been locked in our hands are tied. Should you wish to sell to us again, please let us know of any issues with pricing and we will always strive to do the very best we can for you.
