Excellent experience with bullion vault

I highly recommend bullion vault, it’s extremely easy to buy and sell bullion and their fees are very reasonable. They are also quite fast with withdrawals if needed. A great way to store money and buy gold/silver for spot price.

Solid

Been a customer for more than 4 years. My experience is as good as it can be.

Setting up the account can appear tedious, but BullionVault has regulatory compliance to abide by. Once that's done, the workflow was smooth.

The online sell / purchase website is very well made, I find the fees low to irrelevant for long-term investment, and moving funds in and out was without a hiccup.

I don't see one bit to complain about, and can only recommend.

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
