Ordered online on a Wednesday delivered Friday
Ordered online on a Wednesday, delivered on Friday lunchtime. I had telephoned a couple of weeks prior to "sound" things out. Call taker was very informative.
In short the whole experience was brilliant and "as it said on the tin".
The piece of Chards Blackpool Rock was a "sweet" touch, pun intended.

My first bullion purchase today
My first bullion purchase today. I visited Derek, Amanda and staff at Blackpool branch who were so professional, welcoming and knowledgeable. I will make future purchases with Chards and wouldn’t go anywhere else. I highly recommend Chards 👍

Very trusted company in a niche but growing (and becoming crowded) market. Particularly like the way they reassure that precious metals are tested for authenticity. Service is slower than competitors I have used but maybe that’s because of the extra checks undertaken.
