Telephone contact

The questions about the item were answered.
Payment options were explained if I wanted to order.
There was actually no expectation to order the product which was a plus.
A good service.

Nightmare

Nightmare experience. I ordered a single coin, but somehow ended up subscribed. I cancelled the subscription straight away, yet another package still arrived, asking for over £30 for two 50p coins that simply aren’t worth it. After receiving a second letter, I even tried to pay just to sort it out, but their website wouldn’t let me. I honestly have no words, just hope this gets resolved soon. Safe to say, this will be the last time I buy anything from this company.

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this must have been.

When a subscription is cancelled, there are rare occasions where the next delivery has already been prepared for dispatch, which may be why you received an additional package. We’re sorry if this wasn’t made clear at the time and for any inconvenience caused.

We’d really like to get this resolved for you as quickly as possible. We’ve requested your details through Trustpilot so we can assist you directly with arranging the return of the unwanted items and ensure everything is sorted properly for you.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to put this right for you soon.

My horrible experience at Westminster collection

Hello, my experience at this "Westminster collection" went horrible due y the fact that I put 14 things for 30 pounds in my cart and when I tried to register apparently I already made an account so I checked my emails if I did register and no email enquiring about it, so I made an account for a test and still said I made an account. So as the normal person who would, I pressed forget password and checked my email and yes they sent a link but when I pressed it, It said that it didn't EXIST? So I tried to register again and another error took me back to the same sign in page and now I couldn't even sign in or register which means I couldn't buy the product flip you and your stupid Westminster collection for wasting my time.

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience, and we completely understand how frustrating this must have been when you were trying to place your order.
Unfortunately, we did experience some technical issues with our website around the time you described, which affected account access and password reset links. These issues have now been resolved, but we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and time this caused you.
What you’ve described with the account registration and password reset not working is certainly not the experience we want for our customers. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as feedback like yours helps us improve.
If you’re still interested in placing your order, we’d really like the opportunity to help you directly. Please could you get in touch with our customer service team via email or phone so we can resolve the account issue for you quickly and ensure everything is working as it should.

Absolutely awful experience.

Absolutely awful experience.
Having been a account customer since 2023 and ordering many coins and gold bullion, I have to say the last experience is awful.
I purchased a titanic coins in march as a birthday gift and it was lost in thr post. Not the envelope, the actual coin was lost due to very bad packaging. I captured the post man on our cctv delivering a opened white envelope from Westminster coins. The coin was missing along the way and it was clear the envelope used was not fit for purpose. I called Westminster coins and they offered a replacement.
The coin was alleged to have been send but again nothing has arrived.
When I called them they said to allow 2 weeks for delivery.
I now have to wait another 5 working days before calling to get a refund for a coin that won't turn up AGAIN.
I will in future source coins from other online sellers that will send out the coin as per the order.
Awful experience and needless to say I will be closing my account with Westminster coins once my refund has been received.

We’re really sorry to hear about your recent experience, especially as a valued customer since 2023. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide.

We completely understand how frustrating and disappointing this must be, particularly as the coin was intended as a birthday gift. The situation you’ve described regarding the packaging and the item going missing in transit is very concerning, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused. It’s also disappointing to hear that the replacement has not arrived as expected.

While we do ask customers to allow time for deliveries and replacements, we appreciate that in this case you’ve already experienced delays and this has added to your frustration. Your feedback regarding our packaging has been noted, as we are always looking at ways to improve and prevent issues like this from happening.

Please do get back in touch with our customer service team once the advised timeframe has passed so we can ensure your refund is processed as quickly as possible. We’re truly sorry that this experience has led you to consider closing your account, and we regret that we’ve let you down on this occasion.

Save your money

Save your money. Useless coins and once you purchase they scam you into a subscription and take money from you account. DO NOT BUY is my advice.

Subscription scammers

Scammers! Will sign you up to a subscription and charge your account. Scummy behavior

Update: They charged me £28.98 for what turned out to be £15 worth (ebay sold items) of 50p coins from sets completely different to my original order, and flagged my review as "harmful or illegal content". I take pride in harming scammers profits and I hope many people see this review.

Do not use this company

Do not use this company. I made what I believed was a one-off purchase for a coin, only to later discover I had been signed up to a subscription without clear consent. There was no obvious or transparent explanation of any ongoing fees during the checkout process.

To make matters worse, they then took an additional £28 from my account. The lack of transparency around their subscription is extremely concerning.

I strongly advise others to avoid this company and be very cautious, as their practices feel misleading and unfair.
