“I wish I'd seen these reviews! If you choose to use this company, please ensure that what you want is in stock. I'm still waiting for my "next day delivery" order 12 working days later. Communication is appalling! Now considering my options.”

“I strongly advise against purchasing from this company. I ordered an engagement ring and specifically requested it to be delivered to my work address. Despite this, it was sent to my home address, where my partner was present, completely ruining the surprise. To make matters worse, the ring arrived in the wrong size. I was initially told it would take 10 days to process a return and send the correct size, but now I’ve been informed it will take 4 weeks. Additionally, I was promised a phone call within 24 hours to resolve the issue. It has now been 4 days, and I’ve been told their phone lines are down, so they cannot contact me. This company has proven to be unreliable and unprofessional, providing poor communication and failing to meet their promises. I would never recommend ordering from them.”

“I wish I had read reviews before I ordered ! The diamon store do not deliver after 6pm which is usually when people are home. And they can’t leave it in a safe place which is understandable but leaves no option for any deliveries to a person after 6pm. The only options are to deliver to another address or pay extra for a weekend delivery. It’s a shame they don’t use a courier who can deliver in the evenings. For a diamond store, I’m surprised they wouldn’t have that options especially if it’s a birthday gift a customer wants to send on a particular occasion in the week days after 6pm. Customer services also recalled my delivery without my consent and now my gift I had wished to arrive on the day of my relatives birthday, will not be received. Very disappointed in the service I received. Limited options with this company for delivery.”

“Beware – Poor Quality, Misleading Practices, and Terrible Customer Service I am extremely disappointed and frustrated with The Diamond Store London. What should have been a straightforward, high-quality purchase has turned into a stressful, prolonged ordeal filled with broken promises, evasive responses, and complete lack of accountability. I bought an engagement ring in February (Order #431393), expecting a beautifully crafted piece of jewelry. Instead, within months, a reputable jeweler informed me that the stones were poorly set, at high risk of falling out, and the band was so thin it couldn’t withstand basic maintenance. Weak claws made it impossible to clean the ring without risking further damage. The entire ring needed reinforcement work—a shocking and unacceptable state for a new, expensive item. When I raised these issues with The Diamond Store, the response was infuriatingly vague and dismissive. They assured me the replacement ring would be a match, yet provided conflicting documents that showed discrepancies in diamond clarity, carat weight, and measurements. My efforts to get clear answers have been met with empty reassurances and zero clarity. The replacement ring has been fraught with issues: My “Valuation for Insurance” document says VS1 clarity, but the diamond certificate states VV2. Why this difference? The replacement diamond was smaller than the original, with a lower carat weight, which the store brushed off as “natural variance”—at my expense. Vague “concerns” about the original ring were mentioned, yet no concrete explanation was ever provided about the problems or steps taken to ensure they wouldn’t recur. I’ve had to escalate my complaint, even threaten to consult the Citizens Advice Bureau and Trading Standards, just to get a response that isn’t a copy-paste job. Despite my numerous emails, they have repeatedly failed to resolve these serious issues. The Diamond Store offered a £100 voucher as an apology—frankly insulting after months of dealing with their evasive tactics. If you value transparency, quality, or even basic customer service, stay away from The Diamond Store London. I wish someone had warned me before I wasted my time and money. This company is untrustworthy, evasive, and falls far short of what anyone should expect when making such a significant purchase. Avoid them at all costs.”

“Appalling company! Merely enquired about a purchase and have been inundated with marketing Emails. Tried 'unsubscribe' link and blocked by antivirus protection as suspect. Twice requested Customer Services to remove my details from their database and cease the unwanted Emails - still continue 3 a week. ICO next step... Don't touch the company as you may regret it.”

“TDS advertised a ring for sale at the size we needed. TDS took our payment. Few days later, TDS said that they do not have it in stock!! We were very disappointed and upset as TDS should have, at point of ordering, said that it was "out of stock". No compensation was offered, except for a refund! The same ring and size is still be advertised for sale - how many other people are they going to upset and disappoint!! Do not deal with TDS as their practises are unethical.”

“AVOID! I had my eternity ring on a few weeks and a stone came out. Company said this was caused by trauma and as a gesture of goodwill we needed to pay £150 to have fixed. Although I have no recollection of “trauma” we paid the money reluctantly as I wanted my ring back. 3 weeks after getting the ring back, whilst laying on a sun lounger on holiday I noticed the same stone was missing and another loose! This shambolic company now want £420 to repair through apparently more “trauma” to the ring, all whilst laying on a sun lounger by the pool. We are now seeking advice. The upset and anguish this company causes with their poorly made jewellery is horrendous! Please do not fall fail to this company. It has caused us so much anguish. We are over £2000 down with no eternity ring. This was a Christmas present and has not been on my finger for more than 7 weeks in total. Shame on you diamond store.”

“German man was rude, pushy, and didn’t listen to a word I said. All he is interested in was treating me like an idiot, like I knew nothing about diamonds, and wanted to push as much carrot weight as he could for on me. I walked out of the store.”

“Ordered a necklace for a birthday gift. Made the order 24 days before the birthday so it would arrive on time. Order never arrived. For some reason they asked the carrier for it to be shipped back. They never told me the reason. Rude customer service.”

“I brought a diamond ring for my wife as… I brought a diamond ring for my wife as a wedding ring. it was £3300 at the end of 2018. In 2021 we had to send the ring back as a clasp broke, and this was repaired under warranty. In Nov 2023 we had to return the ring again as two clasps broke, and my wife nearly lost the diamond, but luckily she noticed it was moving ! We returned the ring again only this time it was out of the 5 year guarantee, and now they wanted to charge us to repair it. We weren’t happy about this and took the matter further, but they insisted it wast “wear and tear” Im not sure on a ring how this works as its sold to be worn for life and used constantly ? Only she only ever wore it when going out, yet it’s worn out ?? Reluctantly we said we would have repaired at our expense, £150, they took the money but they couldn’t even guarantee if they could effect a repair, and couldn’t offer any guarantee on this. They suggested they could make a new clasp for £400, but again couldn’t offer any guarantee !! We consider this a reasonable price to have paid for a ring. The quality of the ring has been extremely disappointing, especially as she has ring years old and worn everyday with no issues. We feel the workmanship / materials on this ring to be substandard, and given that the ring needed repairing 3 years in, that this should have had some bearing to how were now being treated as clearly there was an issue with it, and this should have been picked up on its “1st” repair !! Not impressed with The Diamond Store”

“Shocking just shocking - avoid. Bracelet is the lowest quality and kept breaking, instead of a refund they replaced it until they blamed my wife it was her fault it broke. Worst scam ever”

“AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE My engagement ring was purchased from the diamond store. Unfortunately we lost our warranty on it because we had it resized by a 3rd party. 12 months LATER one of the claws holding in the central diamond broke, luckily I noticed before the diamond came out and we sent the ring back. We paid for repairs and they sent the ring back. Just 4 weeks later another of the claws broke!! this time unfortunately the central diamond fell out and was lost. We were completely shocked the ring had broken for a second time and within 4 weeks of receiving it back from the first lot of repairs for the same issue. This time, because the repairs were more costly, the diamond store went into full defense mode and started blaming the company that carried out the resizing over 12 months ago for the 2 recent breaks. They were incredibly unhelpful, gave us a crazily low valuation for the ring, and then told us it was irreparable and that we would have to purchase a new ring from them. We have since been to a local jewelers who have quoted £450.00 for ALL of the repair work, cleaning and re-plating which is to include upgrading the claws, as they advised us that they are poorly made and not very durable which is why this ring was repeatedly breaking. Now even more annoyed that the diamond store had classed this ring as irreparable, and strongly feel like they were just pushing us to spend more money with them. save to say we will NEVER buy anything from them again and will advise others the same.”

“Avoid this company!! Worst customer service EVER, never call you back EVER I ordered an engagement ring on 4/12/23 that I was taking to Sri Lanka to propose to my girlfriend. The package arrived on 27/12/23 and I immediately saw the wrong ring had been delivered. I assumed this was an error due to the busy time of year and attempted to contact TDS in 4 different ways to resolve it. Their phone lines were shut for a month - incredibly frustrating! Managed to get through via email to arrange a return. TDS got back to me in the new year stating the ring returned wasn’t their ring because it doesn’t bear their hallmark, and asked if had returned it in error, and until I return the correct ring, they will not issue a refund. Someone in there packing room switched my engagement ring for a cheap gold ring and the company are taking no responsibility for it . Apparently the customer is always wrong and a thief !!!! This issue has been going back and forth since 27/12/23 and TDS are refusing to give me a refund because the ring doesn’t bear their hallmark. From my perspective, I have returned the ring I received from their company. I am now £1650 out of pocket and with no ring to show for it!! Fuming! I decided to reach out to the CEO to resolve this, and he flatly refused to take responsibility. What should have been a happy moment for us has been marred by this poor experience. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!! Go to a reputable jeweller instead. Incredibly frustrating and distressing experience and continues to be so!”

“I am compelled to express my dissatisfaction with your service, particularly after the purchase process. While contacting customer service before buying was effortless, my experience has taken a disappointing turn. I returned a bracelet that broke (due to no fault of mine), but I have not received any response or confirmation email regarding the return. This lack of communication has marred what could have been a positive experience for me. Regrettably, I cannot consider my experience satisfactory. I kindly request prompt attention to the issues surrounding my order #386423 and a timely response addressing the status of my return. I anticipate your swift resolution to rectify this situation.”

“Do not buy from these people. Ordered just before Christmas. Supposedly delivered by DPD. No notification. Item returned. Told they are waiting for the bracelet to be return by DPD. It's now 10th January and still waiting to hear. Judging by the rest of reviews on this site, steer well clear on the Diamond Store.”

“I placed an order for a diamond tennis bracelet on Friday November 24th. I didn't receive a confirmation email which was strange so i called the number provided Saturday 25th and asked what was going on to be told my details would be passed on and I would get a email. I didn't. I called back Monday 27th and explained all this and I also emailed speaking with a lady called shakira who said my item would be sent and then I had the confirmation emails. I still received nothing then had a email Tuesday 28th to say my order was in stock and would be dispatched in 24 hours. Still nothing. I have just emailed and had a bit off abuse off the "company owner" who said he will not be sending the item as the payment been detected as fraud from yourselves and that if I wanted it sent then to send a bank transfer!!!!!!!”

“Avoid. Bought earrings and necklace. Earrings rotted ears after a few days of wearing. Then necklace broke. They sent a replacement necklace. Wrong one. Different style. Then advised they had sent the incorrect necklace in the first place, a lease value necklace . A shambles. Probably fake. Don’t waste your time or money.”
