My query was dealt with promptly and professionally. It was explained the type of coin I'd have received to make up the collection. This helped immensely and resolved my query.

Ended up in a subscription even though I bought one item only, so I’ve been charged for something I don’t want.
As per other reviews, this seems to be a thing they do, not making anything clear. Very very sus.

We understand that this may not have been as clear as you expected, and we’re sorry for any frustration this has caused. All collections can be cancelled at any time through your online account or by contacting our customer service team directly.

Sneaky practices offering free coins…

Sneaky practices offering free coins and then signing you up automatically to a £30 a month subscription. They then dispatch the new order before you can cancel and make you "wait 10 days" to return it for a refund. I haven't received it yet but the practice is incredibly annoying and unethical. Scammy company.

We’re sorry to hear that you’re unhappy with your experience and appreciate you taking the time to leave your feedback.

We would never intentionally mislead our customers, and details of any subscription or collection are provided on the product page, during the checkout process, within the order confirmation email, and again in the information included with the first delivery. Customers can cancel at any time through their online account or by contacting our customer service team directly.

We understand your frustration regarding the timing of the dispatch and the returns process. Once an order has entered processing, it may already be prepared for dispatch before a cancellation request is received. However, all deliveries are covered by our 30-day free returns policy, and once returned, refunds are processed as quickly as possible upon receipt.

We’re sorry this experience has left you feeling disappointed, and your comments will be shared with the relevant team as customer feedback is important in helping us improve our service.

Dreadful delivery time!

I ordered the gold plated 50p Spitfire coin on the 25/04/26 and I'm still waiting for it. Disgusting delivery time! They said they'd dispatched it on the 4th May 2026 and still not received! Absolutely terrible service. I don't even know whether I will eventually receive it. I phoned them and was told they'd dispatched it on the 5th, not the 4th as notified me by e-mail. So they lie too! I won't use this company ever again. Crap service! And they know it!!!!! Today 11/05/2026 and eventually received it. 2:30pm. Better late than never!

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating this situation must feel. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

We apologise for the confusion regarding the dispatch dates and the delay in receiving your Gold Plated Spitfire 50p. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide, and we’re sorry for the frustration caused by the conflicting information you were given.

While dispatch notifications can sometimes differ slightly depending on when an order is processed through our system, we completely understand why this has caused concern. We would like the opportunity to investigate this further and help resolve the issue for you as quickly as possible. Please contact our customer service team directly with your order details so we can look into the delivery status and provide an update.

We’re sorry we’ve let you down on this occasion, and your feedback will be shared internally as it’s important in helping us improve our service.

The customer service agent was brilliant as I had some trouble with placing an order via a couple of order references, the agent resolved this issue, and found the items with a special order being placed with one of these, as I was informed there was only one item left in stock. Both of these were notified via the normal notification route, and sent onto myself with the normal delivery taking place.

DISGRACEFUL COMPANY. AVOID

EDIT: After this review I was asked for further info which I gave. No response. I've also tried yet again to return the coins and the free returns with Royal Mail doesn't recognise my account number! I am waiting to hear from Trading Standards as of 9/5/26.
I am at my wits end with this Company. I ordered what I thought was a one off collection. Beautiful coins, happy. Then I get another and another. I cancelled my subscription. Then I get another collection that I did not order. I decided to remove my payment card thinking this would stop them. It didn't. I receive yet another set of coins. I couldn't believe it. I tried to get into my account, but couldn't. The request on their website didn't produce any link to reset my password. I emailed. I wanted them to make sure my subscription was definitely cancelled as I didn't want anymore coins. Told me how to return the coins and said another reset link would be sent. Didn't receive the link. I was going to stupidly pay for more coins I did not order. I then looked up subscription scans abd saw that if you receive items you didn't order you had rights under an Act which I cant remember now. I wrote saying I do not have do pay, so come and collect Another email saying when can they collect. I replied. Get another email saying give them a ring to arrange. By now I am feeling incredibly harrassed and upset. I am not going to spend any more time on these unsrupulous people. They can just send someone to collect as I told them days to avoid. Today I get an email saying DO NOT IGNORE and they are threatening to take me to Court. How I am feeling right now is so damn stressed. I have now send an email to Trading Standards as I am pulling my hair out.
AVOID THIS COMPANY. YOU'LL BE RECEIVING COIN COLLECTIONS FOREVER THAT YOU NEVER ORDERED. STILL ONGOING AS OF 4TH MAY

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience, and we can understand how stressful and frustrating this situation must feel.
This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide, and we’re very concerned to hear about the issues you’ve had with continued deliveries, difficulty accessing your account, and the communication you’ve received.
Our collections are designed to be completely flexible, and customers can cancel at any time. We also clearly communicate when an item is part of a collection throughout the ordering process and in confirmation emails. However, we’re sorry that this hasn’t been your experience, and that things have not been resolved when you contacted us.
We would never want any customer to feel harassed or unsupported, especially when trying to resolve an issue. The situation you’ve described is something we take very seriously.
We have requested your details so that we can investigate this fully and get everything sorted for you as quickly as possible. This will allow us to:


Confirm the status of any subscriptions


Stop any further unwanted deliveries


Arrange collection or return of any items received


Review the communications sent to you


Please be assured that we want to resolve this for you and bring the matter to a close as quickly and smoothly as possible.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Scam

Wow, £1 for £1 is crazy (plus £3 postage)

Reply from The Westminster Collection

We’re sorry to hear that you feel this way.

Our £1 coin offers are designed as an introductory promotion, allowing customers to start a collection at a low initial cost, with a small postage charge to cover delivery. We understand that this may not appeal to everyone, and we appreciate your feedback.

Where an item forms part of an ongoing collection, this is clearly outlined on the product page, during checkout, and in the order confirmation so customers can make an informed decision before purchasing.

If you have any concerns about an order or would prefer not to continue with any collection, our customer service team will be more than happy to assist you.

History in coins

Following the, as usual, polite response, I learned of a new Patron Saint I had never heard of.
Thanks to the Patron Saint 50p collection, I found out about St Sampson, who is the Patron Saint of Guernsey.
He was born in the late 5th century in Wales and was one of the 7 founders of Brittany. He arrived from Brittany in the 6th century, bringing Christianity to the islands. The later church was consecrated on 22nd May 1111.
