  I called JM Bullion to order gold. They accepted my money and put the order through. They now canceled my order and also holding up my money. I am sick and tired of fighting to keep my money from being stolen from AMERICA COMPANIES! America has gone down the tubes. NO CONSUMER PROTECTION ANYMORE

  Hello,

  We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Due to the nature of our inventory, customer protection and security is of utmost importance, hence the reason why we go through our due processes. As advised in the cancellation email, any funds will be credited back to your account within *********************************************************************************************** all our correspondence.

  Kind regards,

  JM Bullion

  I am rejecting this response because:   While I completely understand the nature of your inventory, it is never ok to treat paying customers like criminal. The money was legitimately in my account as you know because you successfully put the payment through. The business is

  worried about themselves only and if they have to step on customers and hold up funds, that is just fine with them.

  I deserve a much better apology. NO EXCUSE FOR THIS BUSINESS PRACTICE. You could have verified with my bank at anytime. Instead you chose to insult and treat me like a criminal. FINANCIAL DISCRIMINATION

  Hello,

  We have already explained the reason for the explanation to this customer. In the original cancellation email that was sent to the customer, it mentioned that the refund will be credited back to their account within 48 hours. If she has not received the funds, she needs to contact her financial institution. In addition to this, when the customer calls in, she curses all of our agents that she speaks with and is very uncooperative with any and all correspondences. Customer contacted us by phone regarding the BBB review, and when I explained to her all of this again, she threatened a lawsuit.

  At this point, we are unsure what we can do for this customer. 

  Kind regards,

  I agreed to sell silver coins and bullion to JM Bullion for $4,142.59. JM Bullion noted that shipments are fully insured. I dropped off the package per the instructions at ***** on Feb 9. On Feb 12, JM Bullion notified me that my package was received and I would be paid shortly. On Feb 14, JM Bullion sent me an amended invoice for only $1,600.29 worth of silver. Via email, the manager of the receiving department, ***********************, said it was clear some of the silver was stolen from the package and the box retaped. He also said they have experience with shippers stealing items from packages.I then submitted answers to a questionnaire for the claims team describing the packing and custody of the box prior to shipping. The claims department then notified me on March 6 that they were denying my claim. On March 22, I submitted a request for an appeal of the decision via email. On March 25, JM Bullion notified me that the appeal was under review and they would be in touch when it was complete. In the email I described how the tape on the box in the picture they sent me looked different than how I prepared the box and that assuming JM Bullion was correct in blaming ***** for stealing the silver, that the employee who stole the silver would have ready access to the exact standard ***** box I used and could have put the remaining silver in a new box and printed a new label to avoid the appearance of tampering. As part of the appeal I also requested a description of the investigation that was run, whether ***** was contacted as part of it, and access to the video of the box opening. On June 1, I requested an update on the appeal. On June 3 I received a reply that the claim (not the appeal) was denied and the company would no longer communicate with me about it. Throughout the process there has been a consistent refusal to answer any questions about the investigation, the company will not answer phone calls, and I'm skeptical that any investigation was performed at all.

  Made a purchase of Gold Bullion from JM Bullion on 5/21/2024 for the amount of $58,827 by an ACH withdrawal from my bank checking account. The money was removed from my account on 5/22/24. I was given an estimated ship date of 5/28/24. On 5/29/24 I received an email that the order had been canceled due to an internal reviews process. They also requested that I contact my bank and initiate ACH reversal request (Dispute the transaction) . I am not disputing the transaction as I told my bank, I just wanted my money wired back to me since they canceled my order. My bank informed me that even if I wanted to request an ACH reversal it was too late since it has been past the 5 day period to do so. Contacted JM Bullion and told them that Bank could not perform an ACH reversal. I was told that I would have to be sent a release form to wire the money back to the same account they took it from the following day.It has now been 2 days and I have not received the release form from JM Bullion.Called JM Bullion today 5/31/24 to ask why I haven't received the release form as promised. Was told that they still didn't have an update on my case to return my money back. They have now held my money for over 8 days on an order they canceled for a reason they won't give me, but they still continue to hold my money again for a order that they canceled. This has deprived me from making purchases from other establishments which could cost me more money to invest in Gold due to market fluctuations. JM Bullion canceled the order after holding my funds for over a week, why do I have to wait and go through a bunch of red tape to receive my money back on a purchase they refuse to fulfill.

  Purchased thirteen 20 gram Valcambi Gold CombiBars on Mar 04, 2024 at $1576.86 ea, for a total of $20,499.18. Order was processed and money withdrawn by ACH from my account the next day, Mar 05.Purchased another five 20 gram Valcambi Gold CombiBars on Mar 08, 2024 at $1618.86 ea. for a total of $8,094.30. Again, order was processed and money withdrawn from my account by ACH the next day, Mar 09, 2024.On Mar 11, 2024, both order were cancelled "due to there internal review process." No reason given. They were quick to my money though. I contacted them and was told they can initiate a return or my bank ca. I opted for my bank to reclaim my funds. Received a letter from my bank on Mar 28, 2024 stating they were unable to retrieve the funds and to contact the merchant. I contacted them stating my bank was unable to retrieve the money. They asked for a copy of the letter from my bank which I sent also on Mar 28. Their reply was "Sent to our ************ for further review. Its been a black whole ever since.I reported them to my states Attorney General on April 12. Just received their reply yesterday, May 17, stating they were unable to do anything. On my way to reporting them to the Texas Attorney General and then the **** because I'm sure they would like to know what they are doing with the peoples money and their overall business practices, I thought I'd swing by the BBB first.I've lost the value of gold that I purchased which has gone up. If my money had been returned in a timely manner, it could have have been accruing interest at my bank.How is it they retain an A+ rating?

  I placed an order with this merchant on 2/29/204 and the funds ($2,296.25) were withdrawn from my bank account on 3/1/24. After a few days, as expected, the items were shipped.Unfortunately, when I received the package and opened it (it did not appear tampered at all), one item (the most expensive one, a 1oz gold coin, cost $2198.58) was missing. I reported the incident and they told me to fail a missing claim. They asked me to provide multiple photos of the packaging which I did.They then replied that since the package does not appear to be tampered they have no obligation to cover the claim and thus will not compensate me.

  I sold $8460.43 worth of gold coins to this company. I am attaching their purchase order, mailing receipt and tracking confirmation of delivery. I have called them many times, and they say that they will pay me, but their web site tracking states that they have not received the package which is contrary to the uploaded shipping receipt and tracking information that I am providing. I want my $8460.43 plus the 5% fee in the contract for non-performing default plus market fluctuations (also in the contract) of $170.10 for a total payment of $9053.55.

  On February 14, 2024 I ordered precious metals from JMBullion.com (attached). The order number was ***********. The transaction amount was in the amount of USD 21,613.60 and was an ACH transaction from my banking institution. On February 15, 2024 the funds were sent to JMBullion (see attached).
  On February 22, 2024 I received an email from JMBullion informing me that my order, despite having received the $21,613.60 was "cancelled" due to an internal review process, and that I was directed to initiate an ACH reversal from my bank. I called JMBullion on the phone and was told again to initiate an ACH reversal and that the operator could not be of any other assistance.
  I initiated the ACH reversal with my bank, on February 22, 2024. On February 29, 2024 my bank informed my that they would NOT refund me the $21,613.60 as the merchant had received the funds and my bank was not allowed to reverse the authorization.
  JMBullion committed to send me the PM listed in the attached document. They took the funds I send by ACH and cancelled my order and DID NOT send me the agreed upon Precious Metals.
  They have not made an attempt to resolve the matter other than telling me to ask my bank to initiate the ACH Reversal. The bank has refused to reverse the ACH funds sent to JMBullion.
  I expect a full refund of the funds receive by JMBullion.

  On 16 February 2024 I ordered a coin online and paid by credit card; the shipping date was supposed to be 20 February. On 04 March, the coin hadn't been shipped yet so I called in the morning to find out its status. I was told they would check and call me back. Six hours later, I still hadn't heard back so I called again and was told the billing department was still reviewing the purchase, which I don't understand because they've had my money for 2 1/2 weeks. I asked for clarification, and was told that due to a charge back last year when an order of mine had been lost by ***** the current shipment was under review, even though I never received that order or was in any way responsible for its loss.Today is 04 March and they have had the full payment since 16 February, but refuse to ship the coin I ordered. I am considering legal action for theft of my money and for fraudulently taken it under the guise of a sale.Attached is the email confirmation for the purchase, purchase date, expected shipping date, order number, and amount paid.

  1/28/2024, I initiated *** payment of $42,915.99 for a tube of 20, 1 oz American Gold Eagle coins with premium shipping.1/30/2024, the amount was draft drafted from my account.2/5/2024, I received email notification that *** had cancelled my order without explanation.Shortly after receiving notice of cancellation, I contacted *** support who confirmed the cancellation but said I would need to initiate and *** reversal with my bank in order to get my money back, which I promptly did.2/6/2024 I received a letter from my bank that the *** reversal could not be reversed because the transaction was valid and the funds already withdrawn.Shortly thereafter I again contacted *** support who told me I'd need to send them a copy of this letter from my bank in order to get my money back.1/20/2024, again contacted who said they would need to send me an agreement to sign before my money would be refunded. They emailed me the agreement which is a poorly drafted and over broad word salad relinquishing my right to complain about (among other things) the refund itself. I told them I would need to speak with a lawyer before signing but was curious what would happen if I didn't and they confirmed that my money would not be refunded until I signed.1/21/2024, I have been advised by a lawyer to not sign the *** agreement which they require to refund my money, and so my money remains in limbo indefinitely.
