Easy to use website for buying and selling your gold and silver.
Trustworthy company that I have been with for over twelve years.
They only deal in real physical gold an silver so you actually own the physical commodity and not just paper contracts.

Monthly storage charge not clear

Was not clear that a monthly storage charge occured, and was awkward to make specific denominations. After the first purchase, I'll be withdrawing and removing my funds and soon as possible.

Dear Ian Pocklington,

We’re transparent and proud of our low fees which is why we advertise them in the first paragraph of our homepage, on the first screen of our mobile app and in our freely available tariff.

https://www.bullionvault.co.uk/help/tariff.html

You pay a low 0.5% commission when you trade, and storage (including insurance) is 0.01% per month for gold (subject to a $4 minimum), and 0.04% per month for silver (subject to an $8 minimum and not £8).

If you find a cheaper way to buy, store, and sell physical gold and silver, we’d be genuinely pleased to hear about it.

Kind regards,

The BullionVault Team

Investing with Bullion Vault

Investing with Bullion Vault has been proven to be a sound decision, especially in recent times.
I am absolutely convinced, looking at the numbers, that leaving any money on deposit with a bank would not have been anywhere near as safe or as profitable.
Thank you.

Excellent customer service and excellent website

First, I had a question which I emailed to Customer Support. Although there was a message saying to expect delays due to higher-than-usual number of applications, I received a reply in 2 hours.

Rui was friendly and helpful, explaining everything clearly.

Second, overall the portal is streamlined, attractive, efficient and easy to use.

I don't hesitate to recommend you.

Well done, and thank you.

Bullionvault is so PROFESSIONAL and EFFICIENT.

The system works extremely well.

The only problem is in dealing with banks and HMRC who are dedicated to stopping money transfers to terrorists (and I agree with that) but have not cottoned on to the fact that terrorists and other criminals use other means!
