Honest, knowledgeable and straightforward

Elaine at Peterborough was incredibly helpful and is clearly very knowledgeable. First class service and in no way pushy. Thank you.

Went perfect service and advice.

Went to Mallard jewellers this weekend in Ilford. Spoke to a lovely specialist there regarding the maintenance of my wedding band. She was extremely helpful and gave me a perfectly detailed demonstration on how to clean the ring. Not pushy at all also didn’t try to up-sell other products. Just gave me advice on the best product. Highly professional and very caring. Would definitely recommend this store. Will also visit again.

I paid a visit to Mallards Ilford didn't think it could be the same after Brian has left (Brian used to be an expert and so informative about anything in the store) however I was served by a such a lovely woman who goes by the name of Lavinia who had very similar customer service qualities like Brian and made the whole experience worthwhile and enjoyable

Upgrading my watch

The Nottingham branch of Mallards often has stock which interests me. I have purchased previously and found their knowledge and customer service to be good.

Following on from my previous post

Following on from my previous post, my husband's dream will come true, thanks to Paul at the Peterbrough store. He was able to source the requested items(from another store) to store for me to view/choose. From the minute I met him, you could see his true professionalism and knowledge shine through. I was so excited and filled with emotion, at the thought that I was so close to buying something that seemed just out of my grasp. Paul made the dream become a reality, the whole buying experience was exceptional. THANK YOU Paul.
My next considered purchase with you, will be to purchase a very special gift for my daughter's 21st, in 18mths time.
Once I know what I want, I'll be contacting you again.
In the future I will happily without reservation recommend Mallard Peterborough to friends, family and others, in the knowledge that they too will receive 5*customer service from you and your colleagues.

AWFUL - PLEASE AVOID - I HAVE RECEIPTS OF PROOF OF PURCHASE

AWFUL, I WENT TO NOTTINGHAM STORE, STAFF FRIENDLY, NOT MANY PEOPLE GOING IN AS NOT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE MONEY THESE DAYS. STAFF MIS-SOLD ME A £1800.00 BRACELET. I ALSO SOLD GOLD TO THEM, THEY OFFERED NO TRADE PRICE AS THEY DID PREVIOUSLY. SOLD ME A GOLD PLATED RING SURPOSED TO BE GOLD UNFORTUNATLY I PAID CASH FOR THAT. SOLD ME A RAG DOLL BEAR FOR MY TWINS DEATH BEFORE THIS WHICH FALLEN APART AND I HAD TO SELL THE REMAINDER BACK TO THEM THEY OFFERED ME £15 FOR THAT - INSULT - NO TRADE PRICE -

HEAD OFFICE HAS HAD OVER A WEEK TO CONTACT ME WILL NOT CONTACT ME. THE GOODS THAT WAS PREVIOUSLY SOLD TO ME WITHOUT ME VIEWING THEM WAS NOT WHAT I LOOKED AT 2 DAYS BEFORE, IT WAS PLACED IN A BOX AND SOLD TO ME WITHOUT ME VIEWING - IT IS A TWO TONE BRACELET DAMAGED AND WAS SURPOSED TO BE ALL ONE COULER I PAID OVER £1700 FOR THIS BRACELET WHICH IS DAMAGED IN 3 PLACES AND 2 DIFFRENT COULERED GOLD,

I HAVE TRIED TO RETURN SAME DAY FOR REFUND SAME DAY I PURCHASED AT 3:!3 I HAVE RECEIPT OF PURCHASE PM - I RETURNED SHORT TIME LATER THE SHOP WAS CLOSED WITH SHUTTERS DOWN, I HAVE PICTURE PROOVING THIS AS WELL DATE AND TIME STAMPS WITH ACCURATE TIME.

NEXT DAY PHONE HEAD OFFICE, THEY OFFERED NOTHING NOT EVEN A PENNY, NOT EVEN A CALL BACK AS WAS PROMISED - APPAULING CUSTOMER SERVICE. STORE MANAGER CALLED WAS POLITE HOWEVER OFFERED ME DIFFRENT BRACELETS AT MORE EXPENSE.

I ASKED FOR REFUND IN FULL AS GOODS WAS NOT AS DESCRIBED TO ME AND NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE THIS IS THE TRUTH. FIT FOR PURPOSE BEING ALL ONE COULER AND SUITABLE FOR PHOTO SHOOTS AND FOR WORK, ITS NOT SUITABLE FOR THAT ITS GOT A FLIMSY CLASP ON IT, ITS BEEN REPAIRED IN 3 PLACES. ITS DISGRACEFUL, WONT TAKE DECENT PHOTOGRAPHS, IVE OVER £20K IN JEWELLERY ON MY SHOOTS, THIS IS POOR QUALITY AND NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE, I'VE OVER £3,000 IN CLOTHING AT A TIME ON FOR MY SHOOTS THIS IS NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE.

TO BE RUDLY TOLD I CAN NOT AFFORD A HIGHER VALUE BRACELET, IS AN INSULT I EXPLAINED CLEARLY I CAN AFFORD THE WHOLE SHOP IF I REALLY WANTED TO - THE ONE IN NOTTINGHAM I CAN AFFORD ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING 10 TIMES OVER CERTAINLY NOT SHORT OF MONEY.

WHAT I HAVE TO DO NOW THIS PLACE DOES NOT GIVE REFUNDS IS RETURN THE UNWANTED UN-DAMAGED AND UN-WORN BRACELET AND NOT BE SCAMMED. - GET MY MONEY BACK VIA THE CHARGEBACK SCHEME WITH MY BANK LUCKILY ON THE BRACELET I PAID BY CARD.

ALWAYS PAY BY YOUR DEBIT CARD AS THIS PLACE DOES NOT GIVE REFUNDS SIMPLY TAKES YOUR MONEY AND TRYS TO SCAM YOU.

HEAD OFFICE HAD OVER A WEEK CONTACT ME BACK AND NEVER HAS, IVE PAID £1440.00 VIA BANK WHICH I CAN CLAIM BACK AND IVE THEN GOT TO DISPUTE THE £260.00 FOR THE GOLD THAT THEY'VE HAD OFF ME AS WELL, WHICH IS A POOR PRICE TOO, - AS THEY WONT RETURN THAT NEITHER.

I HAVE FULL RECEIPTS OF MY PURCHASES THIS IS A GENUINE REVIEW, I WOULD STATE I DONT WANT TO DEAL WITH THEM AGAIN DUE TO THE FACT THEIR AREA MANAGER HAS NOT A CLUE HOW TO RUN THE BUISNESS AND IS NOT BUISNESS MINDED. THE STAFF AT NOTTINGHAM STORE THOUGH ARE VERY POLITE.

UNFORTUNATLY THE STORE DOES NOT OFFER REFUNDS AND DOES NOT FOLLOW THE LAW WHERE IT CLEARLY SAYS YOUR STATUTORY RIGHTS ARE NOT EFFECTED, WHEN CLEARLY IN THIS CASE THEY ARE.

I CAN SHOW RECEIPTS OF MY PURCHASES THEY'VE DONE ME OUT OF OVER £3,000 NOW - WITH THE CHAIN AND TEDDY FOR MY DECEASED TWINS AND ONLY GIVING ME £15 BACK FOR THAT IS LUDICRIS WHICH THEY COST ME £895 FOR. -

THEY'VE HAD £750 FOR A BUCKLE RING WHICH IS PLATED GOLD AND NOT GOLD

THEY'VE HAD £1440 CASH AND £260 GOLD FOR A 3 TONE BRACELET NOT ALL THE SAME GOLD, I.E. VINTAGE GOLD IS NOT VINTAGE WHEN IT HAS 21ST CENTURY MODERN ATTACHEMENTS TO IT AND IT WAS NEVER DESCRIBED AS BEING REPAIRED.

THEIR FOR MIS-SOLD AND MIS-DISCRIBED, WHICH IS A TRUE MEANING AS NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE.

THE FIT FOR PURPOSE IS IT IS INTENDED FOR SHOOTS, AND INTENDED FOR WORK, WITH IT NOT BEING THE SAME COULER AND STANDING OUT IT DEFECTS THE VALUE OF THE THOUSANDS OF POUNDS OF OTHER GENUINE JEWELLERY THAT IS WORN ON THE SHOOT AND IS ALSO DEFECTING THE VALUE TO OTHER WORN FOR WORK, WHICH IS ALL GENUINE GOLD. ALL ONE COULER.

THE MANAGER AT NOTTINGHAM ALSO TRIED TO TELL ME THAT ITS ALL THE SAME GOLD, EVERYONE KNOWS THAT GOLD IS DIFFRENT I.E. THE LATER GOLD IS MORE STRONGER THAN THE 21ST CENTURY GOLD. THE MATERIAL OF THE STONE IS COMPLETLY DIFFRENT. ETC.

DONT FALL FOR THEIR SALES TACTICS, DONT FALL FOR THE SCAMS, AND I WOULD NOT RECOMEND PURCHASING FROM THEM, NOT A GENUINE SHOP TO NOT OFFER REFUNDS. JUST OUT FOR THE MONEY

I WAS ALSO DISAPOINTED AT THE FACT I WAS TOLD FAMILY RUN, WHEN ITS NOT.

FACT OF MATTER IS IF THEY TRY TO STEAL MY MONEY AND MY GOODS THEY I WILL TAKE FURTHER AND PROSICUTE ALL STAFF FOR FRAUD AND THEFT. HAVING MY DECEASED CHILDRENS ITEMS FOR PEANUTS AFTER CHARGING ME OVER £850 FOR THEM, INSULT. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. GO ELSEWHERE. -

Thank you for your review Mr Ford. We are very sorry that you feel you have had an inferior experience with us. Our colleagues at our Nottingham store have been, and are still, trying to contact you to rectify the situation. We have already offered an exchange and are still happy to do so. Should this be of higher value we will work something out for you in this instance. It is true that some of our pre-owned items may have had some small repairs to make them of saleable condition, as seems to be the case here. Our pre-owned goods for this reason, come with a warranty period. It is unfortunate that some repairs can be of a slightly different colour due to the solder used. We can confirm that the bracelet you had previously seen in store is the same bracelet you purchased as we have only ever had one of that item. We would like to ask you to please contact our colleagues in our Nottingham store, as you have done previously, as they are waiting and very willing to help reconcile this for you.

Lavinia, Ellie, Debbie

Today I went in to purchase a chain & pendant which turned out to be an excellent experience. Staff were very welcoming, polite and professional. No negatives whatsoever. Spoke to 3 members of staff and each were equally warm characters. Much appreciated and would definitely recommend to anyone.
