    Oh, I totally agree. 
    The Royal Mint are opportunistic money grabbers 
    I honestly think they didnt know about this glitch and are only just now figuring out that they gave away £100,000's in lost revenue to silver forum members 🙂

    Exactly how most of these case's turn out. Your far better off this way, time saved and extra spot price etc. Just a shame they didn't pay out first then find it ( would have made up for the stress )

    8 ‘Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins and loses one. Doesn’t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbours together and says, “Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.” 10 In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.’

    I have just had confirmation that I will be getting a £2500 payment. I will also be getting £27.89 in postage refund and a £50 goodwill payment to "Restore my confidence in the service they provide"
    Totally crazy. 
    I asked for a £250 goodwill payment to split the difference on the £500 in losses I am facing from the difference in price of silver and the other losses from hallmarking/postage etc. 
    The CEO office reply was simply, No. 

    It would seem they have chosen "Trial by combat"
    Crazy that if the Royal Mail finds my package they could just sell the silver for £2800 spot price and be in profit over £200
    It has happened before...

    Would not put it past them.
    If this happens eventually there will be some very strongly worded videos produced and a number of solicitors letters sent me thinks.

    I have little to no hope of this. 
    They have strung me along for well over 3 weeks with them saying they have been searching high and low for it. They even (supposedly) had someone check manually through crates of packages at the dangerous goods/national returns centre. 
    Nothing.

    Well, I hope not. 
    Lovely country, I have family ties in NI and love coming over but I really don't want to go over and sort this out.
    I just want common sense to prevail and people to do their job correctly.

    Thanks, I have already emailed a bunch of people at the CEO office and have had a reply from one person today. 
    I am hoping common sense will prevail and someone will help.

    I have one for certain and possibly up to two more £2500 value packages being sent to Northern Ireland for an 8-10 week stay at the dangerous goods centre. 
    Long story short, silver being sent to and from Edinburgh Assay Office. 
    The packages got there all OK, no delays. 
    Coming back to me, they get pulled out by the Civil Aviation Authority and normally this would then go through the road network. 
    This did not happen. 
    What I have been told is that the sorting centre/CAA people check it once, if unsure they put it to one side to look at again. If they still cant work it out, off to Ireland it goes. 
    Their turnaround is 8-10 weeks to check these packages. 
    Totally c**p. 
    Royal Mail, putting the special back into special delivery.
