    I bought a £5 royal wedding coin last year and certainly have not been sent anything else. I believe they do have "subscription" coin sets but I do not think that applies in this instance.

  • Hi GargainGalore,

    Thank you for your comment.

    I would just like to add that I'm simply trying to address consumers concerns with regards to this promotion.

    I am not trying to promote our site and have not included any links within this or my previous thread.

    Thanks
    David

    You posted a link to your site that's promoting it, also company reps need permission to post on here. I know you were trying to help but please remove the link

    "My name is David and I work for The Westminster Collection who are the distributors for xxxxxxxx.org.uk"

    westminster collection is owned by 288 Group Limited

    "288 Group is the holding company for The Westminster Collection, Harry Allen, CASCO Philatelic Services and Sitters, providing a shared infrastructure that enables each separate business to flourish."
  • Hi Bargain Galore,

    Thank you for pointing this out, I wasn't aware company reps required permission.

    Hopefully I will be able to help if people have any specific concerns regarding this promotion.

    Thanks

    I don't know about that but they don't ask for any payment info so don't really know how they would send you coins with charges in the future.

    It's simple, they send you further medals with a bill

  • Hi Neil,

    Thank you for your comment. I would just like to point out that the free jubilee medal does not book onto a collection.

    Thanks

    Well seeing as there was no small print anywhere saying that we will be sent further items which we will be billed for, they better not try it as that would be illegal.

    As stupid MSE rules prohibit him from posting just to say that on HotdealsUK site he has responded to concerns and some people on there have contacted the company. You get a free coin with no other obligation to buy other than being sent a catalogue to browse and recycle if you don't want to buy any more.
