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.

We’re really sorry to read your comments and understand how frustrating and upsetting this situation feels.
We want to reassure you that our intention is never to mislead or sign customers up without their knowledge.

Subscriptions are completely flexible and can be cancelled at any time, and any items received are covered by our 30-day returns policy for a full refund.
We would really like the opportunity to look into this for you and help resolve things. If you contact our customer service team, we can review your account, explain what’s happened, and arrange any cancellation or refund as needed.
Your feedback is important to us, and we’re here to help put this right.

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.

We’re very sorry this wasn’t clear in your case, and we understand how concerning unexpected charges can be. Please be assured that all subscriptions are completely flexible and can be cancelled at any time through your online account or by contacting our customer service team directly.

All items are covered by our 30-day returns policy, so if you’ve received anything you weren’t expecting, you can return it free of charge for a full refund.

RIPOFF

If i could give a zero star that's what I would give because they don't make it clear that if you place an order you are also singing up to a subscription, as they have taken money out of my bank account i gave them a call to cancel and was told that no money would be taken and nothing else would be sent yet today a delivery from them was delivered so as i see it they are totally UNTRUSTWORTHY.

Charged me £30 when I had never agreed to a subscription, the subscription they said I started apparently started on the 22nd of March, it hasn't been a month and I've been charged.

Reply from The Westminster Collection

Thank you for your review. I’m really sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this must be.

We aim to make all subscription details clear at the point of purchase, including when a product forms part of an introductory offer that continues as a collection. This information is shown on the product page, during checkout, and in your order confirmation. I’m sorry if this wasn’t clear in your case.

Regarding the charge, subscription items are typically sent at set intervals, which may be less than a full calendar month from the initial order depending on the collection schedule. However, this should always be communicated clearly, and we appreciate your feedback on this.

Subscriptions can be cancelled at any time, and all items are covered by our 30-day returns policy for a full refund. If this hasn’t already been resolved, please contact our customer service team so we can look into your account and put things right as quickly as possible.

Kind regards,

We would genuinely like the chance to resolve this for you as quickly as possible. If you contact our customer service team, we can review your account, explain the charge, and arrange any cancellation or refund where applicable.

Missing Pieces

I have been collecting coins for a number of years and, for most of that time I've been using Westminster. Their sales team are very friendly, never pushy and will always accept your decision.

Recently, I had to call as an installment of an ongoing collection had arrived with the envelope not sealed and the contents missing. The lady I spoke to checked their availability, and dispatched a replacement the same day (Wednesday). The replacements arrived within two days (Friday).

It's a great company to deal with, and I'll be sticking with them.
