I wish I did say something when he said that but was just in too much shock that they were blocking me from spending my money. The guy in the fraud prevention department definitely wasn’t helping when he kept saying how “they can’t go into detail on why the site is blocked but they have their reasons” the whole things seems weird to me but hopefully it’ll get sorted out 🤞

Aha yeah I didn’t realise the bank could just flat out refuse me my freedom of spending my money like this! Kinda an eye opener at how in control they are. Makes me think maybe it’s time to start storing my money under my mattress! 😂

Ah I might look into opening an account with one of those. Even if I do get this problem resolved with nationwide I’ve lost my confidence in them massively. Thanks for the info!

I’m thinking about closing my account with nationwide and moving elsewhere but it seems like every bank is going through the same thing, idk how much help it’d be.

Damn I hate technicalities 😅 Tbh I’ve never really had any problems with banks before in the past so never cared to read up on all the legalities and whatnot but having this experience with them is kind of an eye opener.

Seems crazy to me that they have the upper hand regarding what I’m allowed to spend my own money on. Even after answering their questions and confirming I’m okay with the purchase going ahead they still say no! Will hopefully get the block lifted when they phone me up 🤞

I have brought the two items but they are “on hold” until I make the bank the transfer, do you know how long they usually keep things on hold for? I’m not sure whether to go ahead and buy them from a different site, just a little hesitant incase the order with ATS does get authorised and I’ve then brought 4 lots of items lol

This is the site that I had been trying to buy from, could anyone confirm that this is in fact the correct site and I’m not being dumb and got the wrong one 😅 https://www.atsbullion.com if anyone is after a deal they’re selling the Tudor beats Yale and bull for £1600 each as long as your bank doesn’t block you 😅

I’ve just phoned them up again and asked if I could get the block removed/a better reason on why they have blocked me from making any purchases from them and they said they’ve had recent complaints of scams from that site so as a prevention they’ve blocked my account from them. I’ve asked for it to be lifted and have someone phoning me within a couple of days to discuss it further. Appreciate all your help and advice! It’s nationwide

It is tempting to do that, I’m more annoyed that they’re dictating what I can/can’t spend my own money on. I think I might close my account with them and open up with a different branch instead and be done with them, Although they’ll probably have the exact same policies.

I’ve never had a problem with everything being online, in fact I thought it was actually quite handy and convenient not having to do anything and just buying everything from the comfort of my home but not anymore. I’m tempted to go down to my bank and withdraw all my money from them lol Im surprised they blocked me after talking to them as well. I thought it was annoying at first that the payments wouldn’t go through but no biggie, I’ll just phone them up and explain to them that everything is okay, figured they’ll say no worries it’s just precaution and allow me to spend my money but to then block me after answering questions and telling me “to do some research” that part has annoyed me a little.

Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me understand I little bit more about why my bank won’t allow me to buy any gold from ATS Bullion and if anyone else has had anything similar. I’ve just tried buying some Tudor beasts coins from ATS bullion as they're having a sale and upon attempting to make a bank transfer to them my bank account got blocked. After speaking on the phone to them for 30 minutes and getting passed on to the fraud team and answering a few questions they decided they’re not going to go ahead and grant me access to buy from that site and have blocked any attempts I might make in the future and told me to do “ some research” when/where I spend my own money Is this a normal thing for a bank to do? I’ve never had this happen before and just a little shocked that a bank would block me from spending my own money.

Honestly, short attention span. I’ve recently just got into collecting gold beginning of this year and I’m kinda like a kid in a sweat shop at the moment lol. I’m seeing all these new coins coming out and my interest is peaked. Trying to buy them all on a shoe string budget 😅 I don’t want you thinking I’m trying to flip these for a quick profit, I can assure you that’s not the case. I’m either selling these coins for what I’ve paid for them or at a loss (with exception of the lion) Simply just trying to raise funds for a new purchase 🙂

Also willing to do a trade for all 5 of the Queens Beasts for 6 good conditioned full bullion sovereigns, any years expect for the coppery sovereigns + £30.

Hi does anyone have a Royal Mint wooden case that stores 10 1 ounce coins? Like the one in the pictures below. They’ve sold out on their website so I figured I’d check here. Many Thanks

Willing to now sell these separately if anyone is interested - The lion (2016) £470 - The Griffin £470 - The Dragon £480 - The Bull £440 - The Greyhound £430 If you’d like any individual pics of any of the coins I’ll be happy to provide. Postage is not included.

It’s weird why didn't release the bullion one straight away like they have the done with the rest. But I agree, hopefully it does come out eventually because it does look like a nice coin!

Looking at selling my Queens Beasts to fund money for another purchase. - The lion (2016) £470 - The Griffin £470 - The Dragon £480 - The Bull £440 - The Greyhound £430 Alternately I can do £2250 for all 5 (works out at £450 each) postage is NOT included and Payment by Bank transfer and postage to uk address only. Many thanks.

Ah perfect! I kinda lost interest once they released the panther in proof only but if it’s getting released (eventually) I think I’ll give it another go.

Has anymore been said about whether the panther will be released in bullion or sticking with just the proof only?
