I ordered a gold chain on 12th July 2026 which should have been delivered by DX. They failed to deliver the first time as I was not at home. I rescheduled for 23 July, DX didn't show up. I have contacted H Samuel 3 times to get this resolved and still no chain. I will never shop with them again and do not recommend as their courier is nothing short of useless.

Excellent service

I brought a watch for my daughter. After a few months, the watch kept on stopping and restarting, however it was proved that it was not due to the battery ⁰but I had taken out a insurance plan.
When I went to to H Samuel, I was met by Janice. Janice greeted me immediately and had tried to put the transaction through the till, however she needed further assistance. The Manager-Kerieanne came to help.
Kerieanne was fast, efficient and her service was exceptional.
Both Kerieanne and Janice made every effort to complete the transaction by continually communicating and giving me reassurance.
Thank you Karieanne and Janice .

My daughter and two of her friends recently had their ears pierced at h Samuel by Penny. Penny was really reassuring, very patient and clear on aftercare. Great experience for the girls (13). Thank you.

Greedy retailer

I bought a chain. My error, I should have measured first. But I returned the item as was uncomfortably short. I was refused a refund even though I went through PayPal. It was returned in perfect condition, I had only tried it on once,so no doubt they will resell it anyway. I lost £45 so I will never buy from them again.

Katie was really good at reassuring our daughters.

Katie was really good at reassuring our daughters when they got upset during their ear piercings and did a really good job at explaining what we needed to do to keep them clean afterwards. She was patient, kind and professional. I would highly recommend if you're searching for ear piercings for children below the age of 10.
