Absolutely shocking customer service

Absolutely shocking customer service! I want to return an item and the QR code for postage disappeared so unable to screenshot. The website won’t show me this again and they did not email it to me. Live chat didn’t answer after 40 minutes. Emails take 7 working days for a response and I spent over an hour on hold on their phone line yesterday and so far over 20 minutes this morning to move 1 queue position!! Really bad service and extremely frustrating.

Always a good experience with goldsmiths either online or in store. The only thing I wish they would do both inshore and online is to complete the warranty card! They never do it. Other stores ive bought from both online and inshore always complete the warranty card, and I know the receipt is enough for the warranty but for watch collectors a filled out warranty card with the sellers details on is all part of the package.

We appreciate your comments regarding warranty cards and understand why a fully completed card is important to watch collectors as part of the overall ownership experience.

Unbelievable…

I received a message to say my next delivery parcel had been delivered but it has not. As it was high value and for my daughter’s 18th the next day, I called customer service and was on hold for ONE hour and just as I got to no. 1 they hung up saying they were unavailable and to call again!

It had been delivered 3 streets away with a totally different road name. The neighbour very kindly brought it around when he got back from work - it had been left in his doorstep (value £300)…why would you use such useless courier company with high value goods? Also why offer customer support when there is none? I will not be shopping with you again - ever.

Bought pair of earrings

Bought pair of earrings. very small silver & gold costing £750 found them almost impossible to put in my ears as butterfly & post seemed to be the wrong size. Once in very difficult to get out, ear was sore afterwards. Obviously with earrings no return but how do you know unless you try them. Sooo disappointed at what should be a high quality product @ a very high price, actually feels like something from primark

Bracelet arrived less than 24 hours after order which is very impressive, communication also faultless. I think the piece is gorgeous, was purchased as a gift for my daughter's 30th birthday so hopefully she will agree.

No explanations to why the watch delivery was delayed. Time line was not met as promised. Very poor information as to when delivery would be. Time was it the essence when purchase was made

Hello Joan,

Thank you for your feedback. We sincerely apologise for the delay in receiving your watch and for the lack of communication throughout the delivery process.

We understand that timely delivery was an important factor in your purchase decision, and we appreciate how frustrating it must have been when the promised timeline was not met and updates were not provided as expected. This falls short of the service standards we aim to deliver.

Your comments regarding the absence of delivery information have been noted, we kindly request you pop us an email on client.experience@thewosgroup.com for us to look into this further for you.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and are sorry we let you down on this occasion.

Kind regards,
