cash-your-gold.co.uk - anyone had experience of this site ??

Hi

Anyone had experience of cashyourgold.co.uk ??

After looking at different sites these seemed to offer the best price , however once i sent off the gold the price they offered was much lower (the price on the website was for refined gold apparently ). I requested my items to be sent back - they confirmed they have done this - even gave a tracking number - this does not work. I have emailed them - no response and when i called them you can only leave a message , i did this but not received any call back. Has anyone had a positive story from them on returns and i am worried my gold is now lost?? Thanks

    Have you tried a google search for "cash-your-gold.co.uk"? Very few positive reviews as far as I can see.
  • used them once for an old braclet which looked like it fell out of Mr T's collection. Got an estimated quote online then sent the item and received a message to contact them to discuss the item.
    The offer they made was more than I was expecting and i took it and received a payment within 2 day. All in all, it was a week from me sending the item to them paying me. No problems but I may very well be part of a minority.

    I sadly think that you are in a minority on this. cash-your-gold.co.uk is run by the same people who run the britishgoldrefinery.co.uk A truly notorious cash for gold site that had a long running thread on this site but is has now been mysteriously removed

    Sadly I know think you will get your money back

    I have sent my gold off to another cash for gold company. I am not going to name them now but I will report back with the result. This will be the really honest and true review - just doing my bit as part of the MSE community.
  • Hi

    I have today received my gold back, but i did look on the internet yeaterday and found a number of unhappy customers and also a report on them by the Daily Mirror. Thankfully the gold came back but their customer service is alot to be desired !! 5 emails with no response. Their phone only goes to voicemail and i left several messages and did not receive a call back. The email i had from them said the gold was being sent back last Wednesday but t he post mark on it was only yesterday so thats odd.

    I would say to anyone else to be wary of them !! Thanks for the responses :)
  • I've only done this sort of thing once before and it was with the site recommended on mse.

    If I had enough gold to do it again I would use them without hesitation
