Where do I start…

Where do I start!

I contacted Banks of Lyon to ask if they were able to get me the Cartier Panthere watch in size mini - as my boyfriend was getting it for me as a 30th birthday gift. I spoke on chat to a very lovely lady named Aziza.
She took my details and explained it was hard to get a hold of and would speak to her Cartier dealer, within the space of an hour I heard back to say it was possible if we placed the order.
After the order was placed Aziza tried her very best to get it to me before I flew out on holiday - this however was out of her hands and Cartier simply were not able to get it to me on time.
Because of this Aziza went ABOVE AND BEYOND by sending out the cutest pair of gold earrings, a bottle of Prosecco and birthday card so I had something to open! To say this stunned me is an understatement.
Literally the day I arrived in Mexico I received a text explaining the watch had arrived & that she would keep it in the safe for me until I return. Roll on week later, I text to say I was home and not even 24 hours later I have received my beautiful watch - immaculately packaged with their stunning gift wrapping.
I honestly cannot recommend this company enough - especially the service Aziza provides her clients.
You have made a customer for life. Thank you again!

Wonderful service!

I used the WhatsApp feature to contact Banks Lyon and Aziza was quick to reply, very knowledgable and extremely helpful. Very pleasant to deal with.
Purchased two watches, one on order and the other which I picked up from the Kendal Store.
Jake and the other assistants were all cheerful, polite and a pleasure to be with.
Can’t wait for my other watch to arrive in store.

Tag Heuer

Having had a failed and unhelpful trip to the Tag Heuer shop I took to searching the internet for a reputable retailer to discuss a purchase. Banks Lyon appeared and an inquisitive email was sent to negotiate a price. Aziza got in touch and a few exchanges later we arrived at a price. 24 hours later a gift wrapped watch was delivered. Excellent and pain free service start to finish and a pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended.

Fantastic Service

Fantastic Service!

I spoke to a wonderful person called Aziza at Banks Lyon who was able to guide me through the whole process. They were really honest and transparent, supporting with additional photos, sizing and guidance when I couldn't go and see the watch. Really felt like they listened to me and were genuinely working in my best interest rather than selling. Super speedy and reliable delivery and unparalleled service. Love my new watch and couldn't recommend highly enough. Thank you again!

Lancaster

Went into the Lancaster branch today to have a look at Rolex’s and other watches for myself as a treat. I was greeted with such kindness from both women. Sam and her colleague were such gems and it is possibly one of the best customer service experiences I have had in any industry. So a huge thank you to them both.
Thanks,
Kean Patrick

Unique earrings and fantastic customer service!

I just purchased a pair of earrings (online) from Banks Lyon, and I’m very happy with the whole process. I asked questions via WhatsApp, the personal shopper was very responsive and helpful! This is not the first time I bought jewellery from Banks Lyon, and certainly will not be the last! I’ll continue to check out their jewellery collections. The earrings are gorgeous and they were so beautifully gift-wrapped! I was so excited when unwrapping it. Thank you!

Bank Lyon Jewellers experience was simply exceptional

My experience with Bank Lyon Jewellers was simply exceptional. With my 50th birthday on the horizon and looking for a watch I found the Longines Conquest VHP at a discounted price on their site & as I was buying online I did some research and felt confident in making the purchase. They made contact through whatsapp and asked if I would like them to alter the bracelet and confirming when it would be dispatched. The watch was delivered very well packaged and having mentioned it was for my upcoming birthday they also included a birthday card which is a great touch. The watch is stunning and sized perfectly - Thank you for making the purchase so special!!
