Digital Gold was my purchase

Digital Gold was my purchase. Super opportunity to purchase gold at an affordable cost from only £25. Very pleased Royal Mint offer this. It ensures safety, easy tracking of your assets and a similar investment feeling that we all want.

Poor response to issues

Very poor service. No working telephone system and response to emails was poor. Took over 3 weeks to make a transaction and only resolved after writing complaint to Head of Communications

Super-Fast and Easy to Deal With

I made a purchase from the Royal Mint from Australia and everything went very smoothly. From my initial purchase to the delivery (which was staggered due to supply issues) but everything arrived perfectly.

I highly recommend the Royal Mint for your UK coins!!

Not delivering my order and customer service phones turned off.

Ordered silver three weeks ago and they have not delivered it. They have deliberately turned their phone service off stating that their is a fault but this has been for over two weeks now. It is unlikely that a network operator would not fix a telephone fault in a day or two. I have had a delayed response after multiple emails telling that someone will be in touch to arrange delivery. I have still not heard from them despite telling me three times that they would be in touch. The status on account for the order still states 'Pending'. Royal Mint took the money three weeks ago.

Give me my money back you thieves.

Extremely Poor Experience – Money Taken, No Orders Processed.

I am beyond frustrated with my experience with The Royal Mint. Their website failed multiple times while placing orders, yet my card was charged twice for transactions that never actually processed. Nearly £2,000 has been taken, and there are no confirmed orders showing on my account.
I have contacted them repeatedly, but after some initial communication they have now stopped responding altogether. Meanwhile, my bank has refused to refund the payments because the transactions appear authorised.

To make matters worse, their “new” website launched today is still clunky, unreliable, and throwing 500 errors during checkout. For a company of this size and reputation, this is simply unacceptable. Taking customers’ money without successfully processing orders and then failing to resolve the issue promptly is not how a trusted institution should operate.

At this point after 3 days of stress, I just want my money refunded and proper accountability. Extremely disappointed.

You can't even make this up...

Been trying to login to my account to make a purchase. Each time I tried to login it's says "Unable to Login". I tried different devices, different browsers, changed PW. Finally contacted the "customer service" informed them of the issue. They replied saying if I login to my account and send them my account number they'll look in. How can I do that when the website is glitching. Clearly they didn't even read my email which was called "Trouble logging in". You honestly couldn't make this up...

No phone lines, no replies on messenger and clearly don't even read emails. It's our national mint and it's an embarrassment. Worst of all, they're now out of stock of the item I wanted to buy, I'm gutted!

Possibly the worst company I've dealt with. Deivery was due end of January and did not arrive. Tried to chase but their phone is shut down and am told emails take weeks . so far, to get a reply. Utterly useless.
