The two ladies in the Nottingham branch were super helpful and friendly. My experience was very positive and I would not hesitate to recommend British Bullion.

Sale of a gold coin…

I recently sold a gold coin through British Bullion. I rang up first thing & got an appointment that morning in Oldham. The staff were very friendly & helpful, they verified the coin in a couple of minutes & made me an offer which was over 95% of the spot price. I accepted the offer & the money was in my bank account the following day.

Don’t deal with this company

Don’t deal with this company. They manufacture issues so they don’t have to send your purchases, but only when the price is going up.

Their premiums and buy back rates are also disgusting.

Dear Nick,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and that you feel disappointed. That’s never the outcome we want for any customer.

We want to assure you that we do not delay orders based on market movements. All orders are handled according to availability, payment confirmation, and standard processing requirements, which apply equally to every customer.

Pricing and buy-back rates in precious metals can change frequently due to market conditions, and we do our best to keep them competitive and clearly communicated so customers can make informed decisions.

If there’s a specific order or situation you’d like us to review, we’d genuinely appreciate the opportunity to look into it and help resolve any concerns. Please feel free to contact us directly on 0141 343 1306.

Pretty straightforward experience

Selling to them I had slightly better offers elsewhere but British Bullion offered the convenience of a branch/vault in a nearby city, so I chose this company on the basis of convenience. I was quoted 'up to 5 working days' to receive the funds in my account but in practice I received the funds the next day. A very simple procedure and I have no hesitation to recommend for anyone with bullion to sell.
