“first and last time ordering online purchased 2 luxury watches online for some reason they split my order and only received 1 of the watches horrendous experience trying to locate and find out what was happening with the second watch web chat is terrible as is actually phoning them is all you are told is someone will email you regarding the matter which never happens certainly will not be using or trusting this company for any further purchases”

“My partner ordered me a gift from here and was guaranteed to be delivered into store before Christmas. So Christmas eve we went to meadowhall to pick the gift up.only to be told they had already received there delivery for that day so it wouldn't be here for Christmas. My partner was offered a replacement if there was one instore but would have to pay full price again and would be refunded when the item came instore for collection. This was not an option for us as he had already paid full price. We were left stood there looking like fools as the assistant couldn't offer any other advice. I've still.not received the item so this spoilt our Christmas. I will never recommend this store to anyone. The service was disgusting”

SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO ELSEWHERE!”

“Outstanding customer service from Kelly and her team at the store in Swindon Outlet. No quibble, no fuss, no hassle, they exchanged my faulty watch, replacing it with the exact same watch, despite the significant price increase. Special thanks to Natasha who went above and beyond to get the replacement watch in super fast time and for being so understanding, kind and helpful. They were extremely professional and responsive, thank you Kelly and Natasha, we are very happy customers. Stephanie”

“If you want your ring to last more than 2 weeks please don’t buy from earnest Jones my diamond fell out 2 days after my purchase got the diamond replaced after a lot of struggle and the same diamond fell out again after a week however upon arriving I was told they will send the ring back to determine if it’s manufacturer fault or due to wear and tear I was called to say they could not find a fault and if I want my same diamond replaced I will have to pay. Customer service in Silverburn branch is appalling they don’t want to know you after they take your money. I would never buy anything from Earnest Jones again. If you want good customer service after your purchase then I would strongly recommend Beaverbrooks.”

“Ordered watch online .order went through. On there website the watch was showing in stock .gets a text 4 days later to say the watch is out of stock.They seem to have a big problem when saying there stock availability is OK. Yet when you order its seems to be the opposite. OUT OF STOCK.Not a good way of running business. ..”

“Worst experience ever and as you can imagine stress like this before wedding is not what I need. Ordered our wedding rings. Payment was taken but only for one ring.Got in touch with crc to ask why. Couple days later I am advised that 2nd ring is out of stock. Why are you selling items, letting order to be processed for out of stock items?! Then I am told order will be processed as soon as ring is back in stock BUT no date given just yet Eeerrrm when its my wedding ring I rather know now if I will get it in time! Also I am bombarded with multiple emails from 3-4 people each telling me different information... Like, What the ****. Get your facts right! Few days after 1 ring gets despatched but OMG it's DX, worst than Hermes! It took 3 Delivery attempts for me to successfullyget hand on my order. You would think company like this selling expensive goods would use reliable delivery service... but clearly investing in client customer service and despatch is not something Ernest Jones would bother... And gues what, the ring I am waiting on is still available to buy online!! No such thing as info to advise that it might be out of stock...”

“I purchased a very expensive (£2,000) tanzanite and diamond ring from their fancy LeVian range. After wearing it for about 6 months (never engaging in anything rough) a portion of the main stone chipped off. The customer service representative (Rebecca Lyon’s) concluded I must have damaged the ring and would need to have it fixed at my expense. I am a very angry and disillusioned customer and will never shop there again. I still have £1500 of my loan for this piece of rubbish to pay off.”

“I got diamonds earrings from my husband. he was told in shop that with gift receipt it will be no problem to exchange or return if I don’t like them . Actually I don’t like them so I back to shop to exchange them to other one . Unfortunately I was told that is not possible to get exchange or return of that diamonds earrings for hygiene reasons because I opened plastic bags , but I opened small plastic bag to actually see them . How you can see diamonds rings without opening plastic bag ! Shocking ! I back to shop next day so I even didn’t have a chance to wear them . Staff very rude. Don’t buy there if you don’t want a disappointment ! I didn’t get any diamonds certificates or even any information about earrings .”

“Bought an Omega watch from Earnest Jones in early January as a treat for my self because of the past 2 years of Covid etc. Watch arrived no problems, just didnt really suit my wrist as it was a bit clunky on my wrist but was also talk of my job ending prematurely, Decided to return the watch for the no quibble return. After waiting almost 2 weeks i asked what was going on, only to be told , they cannot find watch, and could i send them proof of postage, which i duly passed onto Ernest Jones. They explained this should resolve issue and the refund should be tied up shortly. Then i get a letter from the team at Earnest Jones saying basically Royal Mail "think" my label may be faulty , but are unable to provide or show this label , which is obviously attached to the box with the watch in this. I have had numerous correspondence with Earnest jones who simply say they dont accept my proof of postage, but can not provide any more information, so as it stands i am almost £7000 down with zer watch and a stress level throuh the roof. Keep away from Earnest Jones, their promises of no quibble returns are simply lies, even after i have provided proof of postage, they are with holding the money and they or the royal mail refuse to offer any proof to back up a claim saying they "think" label is faulty, if the so called label was faulty, they could show this to me and this would be attached to the item they say they don't have, so if they have this so called faulty label they obviously have the box and watch which they claim not to have. STAY AWAY, Nothing at all Earnest about Earnest Jones. I will be seeing you in court.100%”

“I bought my boyfriend a watch for his birthday and wanted the birth date engraved on it. Ernest Jones sent it away to be engraved and when I came back to the store to pick it up the watch had the wrong date engraved on it! They did send it back to get it amended and returned it a week later however the date engraved had the spacing all wrong so instead of showing a date 21.02.22 it actually reads 210 222 - by this time I didn’t have the time (or patience) to send it back again so accepted it but I wouldn’t recommend the engraving services at all! Friendly enough staff in the store just a really poor service around the engraving and they don’t reply to emails!”

“We bought an engagement ring in January 2020 Edinburgh. The smallest diamond that is hidden under the crown diamond fell off. There was no heavy impact that we could recall and given the position of the diamond it was unlikely to be the first one to fall out if there was impact. We went back to Ernest and Jones to see what they can do, we were aware that there is only a 12 month warranty and we hadn’t purchased additional insurance. Given lockdown measures in 2020 and 2021 and the fact that this diamond is protected by the crown we were certain they would help us as part of their customer service. However upon arriving we were told we would have to pay for it ourselves, after pushing they said that the workshop can determine if its a manufacturers mistake and if so fix it for free. We asked them if they would provide a report or statement of their analysis and findings, they said they would. We left the ring and were called back to say that they didnt find anything wrong with the ring so it is wear and tear and therefore to be paid by us, £87. I asked if they checked the hooks etc, she couldnt tell me anything more than that one statement. It feels like they just took the decision without properly “analysing” as soon as they knew we were beyond the warranty period. Their blanket perspective is that if it doesnt fall out within a year then its not a manufacturers mistake. Whilst I understand the general concept of a warranty, I feel that this was just not good customer service given the circumstances. It further leads me to believe that the rings at this company are not of good quality, because if the diamond falls out after 1-2 years due to general wear and tear, then how often are we supposed to come back throughout our lifetime and please don’t say at least once a year for maintenance. We are not strangers to diamonds in jewellery, a diamond is not supposed to fall out without cause after 2 years, period. We will not be shopping here again.”

“These idiots sold me a Tudor watch on interest free credit in October and then never had a watch to deliver to me. So they cancelled the agreement or so i thought. I just checked my credit remand the agreement is live and they have taken 4 payments from me. These are amateurs. Do not attempt to buy a luxury watch from this company.”

“I purchased a ring from Ernest Jones and purchasing was so easy. The worst bit is the customer services, it seems once they have your money that is it, the rest is just an awful attitude. The ring did not turn up for over a week when they said it was sent next day special delivery. eventually it came by royal mail!! When trying to get through to them the only way i could get through was via live chat and some of the people at the end of the chat were unhelpful and basically told me that there was nothing they could do to help. In some of the live chat the person even put !!! after one of the comments (very rude) When the ring finally arrived i had been told (over live chat) i would get a certificate with the ring as it was such a good ring that the certificate would come with it. No certificate arrived with the ring at all so i still dont know to this day if it is a genuine ring and whether it is what they said it is on their website? their comment was that we dont do certificates and yet told me it is an amazing ring!!!! I did eventually get an apology from them for the late delivery i had but still no reassurance about the quality and value of the ring for insurance purposes. I will not be purchasing from these people again and i would highly recommend that you think twice before you press the purchase button if all contact after sale is as poor as mine. Very poor considering a lot of money was spent on my purchase with no customer services skills what so ever. Very poor i wish i would have read the reviews before giving these people my hard earned money. Awful experience, did not feel like i was a customer just a pain in the backside for contacting them with an issue. Never again sorry Ernest Jones your name not good in my eyes.”

“Hi there I recently purchased a tag heuer aquaracer watch from your cribbs causeway Bristol branch, which when purchased I had a brilliant experience. Since purchasing I have worn the watch once very briefly, but other than that it has remained in its box. Yesterday on the 14th November 2021 I decided I was going to wear the watch for the day and noticed that the date hadn't been moving although it was still reading the time. With it being a new watch I decided to drive into your store and have it looked at. On arrival I passed the watch to a member of your team who I believe was named Victoria, who then proceeded to work on the watch for 5-10 minutes whilst I watched over my children. It's worth noting that when dropped off to you the watch was in its box and not being worn by myself. Once she had finished she returned the watch to me and i wore it out of the store, had some lunch and returned home. Once I got home and sat down with my husband he almost immediately noticed three scratches on the bracelet and up the side of the main casing. Having barely worn the watch and knowing it's condition and how well it has been looked after I immediately returned to your store which is a 30 minute trip each way. On arrival I explained the situation to a member of staff who then handed the watch to Victoria I then said I wasn't directly blaming her but the facts were that the watch was handed over in perfect condition and then subsequently returned in what appears to be a damaged condition. She then took the watch and checked it over immediately saying it wasn't her and that there's nothing she could do. I love the watch and want to keep it but i was simply asking if the scratches could be polished out and if not then it would need to be replaced or refunded, she then said they could repair the watch but I will have to pay. I then asked her to check the CCTV to find out exactly how the watch had been treated. At this point I was rather aggressively told to leave, she slammed the lid on the watch Box and shoved it towards me telling me to leave or she will call Security, repeating this twice. As I was leaving she also bizarrely told me to go and try to sell my watch somewhere else as they are not taking it, which I just really couldn't understand. I am Thai not English and my husband has written this complaint for me but as you can appreciate this remark was rather confusing as all I had asked for was the damage to be repaired as this is my preferred option as i live the watch and want to keep it. After such a great initial experience purchasing the watch to then be made to feel like a criminal was quite upsetting. Off the back of my visit I went straight to an independent local jeweler who inspected the watch and says the scratches are deep enough to the point where it looks like someone has scratched it with a tool, possibly whilst trying to release the crown? I understand how these things can happen and watches can be easily scratched but as you would see if you inspected the watch, there are absolutely no signs of fair wear and tear on the watch except for three deep scratches which logically just makes no sense. The very least I would of expected was some kind of compromise but there was no acceptance of even the possibility of an accident on her behalf and then on the top of that i was threatened to leave or Security would be called. Anything you can do to help me would be hugely appreciated. Kind regards Kittiya Oxenham”
