“Bought Rotary watch from HSamuels and as it fell apart so I took to HSamuels Chorley Lancashire for a refund,apparentley only the moving parts are under guarantee(watch about 8 months old and worn about 10 times)and a refusal of refund even though it is a faulty watch that also doent work due to the face of the watch falling on floor,I walked out in the end and told them to keep the watch,,,staff attitude are none too great either. Lost my business for ever needless to say which is HSamuels shooting themselves in the foot as I`m always buying watches. Yet good riddance.,,,,,,trust pilot needs a minus star option for companies like this.”

“The worst choice for wedding rings ever. We spent lot of money, patience and time for two wedding bands because of the repetitive mistakes from staff. The member of the staff that measured our fingers for the rings had no experience at all. At our first visit to the store in the center of Dublin a young unexperiencedgirl who supposed to be called staff of one of the most wellknown Jewellery stores in Dublin measured our fingers and assured us that our rings would be in the store in three weeks. After 3 weeks we went back to Samuels to take our rings and with suprise and huge disappointment we realized that the size of both of the rings was too small even for a child's finger. The size was completely wrong. When we started complaining, another member of the staff came and told us that the girl who measured our fingers wrote down wrong sizes for both of the rings. She measured our fingers again and assure us that in 3 weeks thatnew rings whould be ready. And the impossible happened again!!! The rings were wrong size again. We couldn't believe it. The same employee ordered wrong size for second time. The manager of the store was watching the discussion and how upset we were without assisting. The employee who did the mistake was laughing during all time without apologies. I felt so nervous, sad and same time so disappointed because I trusted a famous Jewellery store in Henry street in Dublin, for the most special of my life and I had this treatement. At the end for 3nd time and 9 weeks we got our rings. This was the worst experience as a customer and as a future bride I could have. There is no chance to visit the same store in Dublin or any Samuels store ever.”

“If I could give less stars I would. 5 years ago bought a platinum ring from these cowboys. Fast forward 2 years platinum ring tarnished. Took back to the shop as it was still under insurance. Said I wanted my money back as I did not want another ring to go the same. Anyway was talked into having this other ring . Which I was lead to believe was 18ct white gold and 1 ct diamond. This was a very hot day fingers swollen. So next day took them back as my fingers had gone down. Only to be told they did not have my size and for me to get it resized. I said I’ll cant as I’m going away . And I would like to have my rings . So again I asked for my money back . Again I was talked into keeping them . They put a ring band thing in it to make it smaller till I came back. Anyway took it back a few time over 18 months to be told it can’t be resized. So now I’m stuck with a £2000 ring I can’t wear. Insurance is not worth the paper it written on. I’m going to seek legal advice on this matter”

“My boyfriend ordered an engagement ring which they ordered in the wrong size took it back to sort it out to be told they couldn’t resize it and that they couldn’t refund I was devastated! I took it to another jewellers to be told it could go up the sizes that I needed! The customers service was disgraceful!! This company cater for some of the most special days of peoples lives and when they get it wrong they blame the customer thankfully an actual jewellers has helped me out and is sorting the problem h samuels claim they couldn’t do NEVER buy jewellery from here!!!!”

“Another warning. Do NOT use this company. Just read the Trudtpilot reviews, never have I seen such consistently bad reviews. My friend's son bought her a not inexpensive bracelet for her. It broke after only wearing it three times. Returned it the Staffotd branch for a refund only to be told it would have to be sent off for analysis. The result was that He Samuel claim that it broke due to customer misuse. What utter rubbish. I will be taking the matter further involving the media and social media. Boycott this company.”

“Warning not to buy their creole earrings. The service was fine but this is the second pair of earrings that are so poorly made, despite the price, that have come undone and one been lost. I put my earrings in and never take them out. This second pair were my birthday present and have lasted a week. Really disappointed and will be returning the other pair.”

“Absolute terrible customer service. Ordered engagement ring, promised it would be here a week later after resizing by store manager. Then waited and waited despite being told i had premium service, only to be told after ringing up after 11 days it was going to to take 2.5 weeks... but arrangements had already been made according to their promise!! Then was told they would only refund me of resizing had not taken place despite never being told this at sale and it being their mistake!!! Then told they could refund me after threatening customer service, trust pilot etc.. yet could get ring too me sooner but still 9 days after Derby store manager promised! I wouldn’t mind but their rings are hardly good value, rather you pay extra for seeing them in a shop. Better value in lots of other places. I could have got this resized in an afternoon at our local jewellers! Thanks for nothing... and ruining plans! You promised delivery by 19th April, I waited, celebrating 27th and delivery still not with us until 29th at earliest!!! Will wait to see if it arrives!?”

“I did have a forever diamond engagement ring unfortunately I had nothing but problems with my order! The ring was purchased in January and I've had 3 or 4 orders for this ring in a size "j" each order is a 4-5 weeks wait!!! and still ive not received this ring in my size. They lent me a size k ring in February to make my engagement party but couldn't wear it properly as it was too big (obviously) and had to be returned to the store. I pity the girl who gets that ring next thinking shes the only person to have ever worn it. Apparently I'm the only person in the whole of the UK with a size "j" order!!! (Words of customer care lady linda). customer care well that's a joke! fobbing us off with stupid excuses! I made my final decision yesterday after a lot of stress and tears to give up, take ring (k) back and get a full refund! I was given 3 ESTIMATED delivery dates for this month not one person within the company could guarantee that my ring would arrive on any one of them dates! H.samuel is a joke! you think you can trust such a big store don't be fooled! I was told It was just stock and not prioritize I was accused of putting additional orders through by the store manager spoke to me like absolute rubbish on the phone! do not trust these rip-off merchants they take your money and don't care about what "stock" your left with!”

“Very poor quality jewellery. I never buy from here personally due to the quality and a bad experience years ago. However i was bought a pair of white gold earrings for Christmas and i keep them in at all times only take out to clean. I noticed upon taking them out one back has been lost not surprised due to how small they are compared to my others from Beaverbrooks. Both are bent totally the part that go into the ear. How they can bend is beyond me. I have had my Beaverbrooks ones for 8 years and they are intact and not bent. Appalled at the response from my complaint i have made direct. They offered a replacement which i declined as they quality is awful and they will simply do the same. I was then told i can only get a refund if i find the receipt which i do not have as they were a gift for Christmas and was paid in cash not card. Absolutely poor quality and appalled with the earrings they have not even lasted 2 months. Would just to mention that the customer service is not very supportive at all. Jut to let you know no refund allowed as no receipt as it was a gift, also only replacement offered but to be honest after the quality of these i do not want replacements.”

“I wouldn’t even go for a star given the customer service experience I encountered in H Samuel - Westfield White City store. The Assistent Store Manager treated me as one of his employees and threaten me there will be no solution for my purchase in my favour. I left the store extremely dissapointed. Went to Ernest Jonest instead (which guess what? Is part of the same company). I have received outstanding customer service from all the stuff which were very professional and well trained/informed. I don’t recommend H Samuel - Westfield White City, try to avoid if you are not looking to ruin your day. Alexandr”

“Stratford Branch. Went to collect one of the wedding rings we had ordered and had already paid £300 for. Stood and waited patiently to be served at first but other customers were clearly getting served before me. Went over to help desk where a snooty cow kept looking at me like something she scraped off her shoe and proceeded to serve two more customers and prattle on about her boyfriend. If I hadn't already paid I would have walked out without buying. It seems like they only want to talk to people they think will be spending big money. As we had already spent £600 on rings in there I can only think it's a case of once they have your money they think they can treat you like dirt. Wish we hadn't bought our wedding rings there now as it totally spoilt what should have been a happy and memorable occasion. There are plenty of other jewellers about so i would never shop there again.”

“I order a charm. A couple of days later received the dispatch confirmation. Neither tracking or delivery date provided. Package never arrived so I contacted Customer Services a week later. According to them it was sent by Royal Mail and provided a tracking number showing it was delivered, but the tracking details didn't refer to my address, were just generic. Almost a month after, I haven't got any answer, nor my money or the charm.”

“What a terrible company. I have placed an order and received confirmation fairly quick. There comes the delivery date and they send an email for say the order has been cancelled due to lack of stock. What is the point of having something online if you don't have your system up to date. I will never order from them again.”

“I bought a dkny watch online and it was delivered a couple of days later. I opened the package and to my horrer there was no watch inside. I called up customer service who told me they will investigate. I then rang them back a few hours later and they told me that they had watched cctv footage and that the watch was in there before it left the store therefore there is nothing they can do! This is the most ridiculous thing I have heard in my life as I have paid for a watch to which I didn’t even get and they tell me they can’t do anything!! And won’t give me the money back! What kind of service is this? They’ve left me feeling like some kind of fraud. Do not waste your money on them they’ll just send it to you empty and rip you off of your money”

“I totally agree with person before ,I sent a ring in that I had lost the ruby out of ,had quote £637,00 ,more than I wanted to pay but its sentimental so said yes, When received back it was a bright pink stone, Not happy is an understatement k was told they would change it ,this took months got it back and still not blood red ruby but they had it for 10 months in all, I wish I would have gone with the quote I got at first from another jeweller's it may have been the right colour,Would not use these ever again.”
