They told me the other day that it takes 3 to 5 days to get into your account, my funds are still not showing at all from a week ago? 

Oh thanks. So then it’s not just me. 😅

There service seems to be shocking, I thought they would be market leaders Lol

 

I would rather spend with Chards etc now. 

 

That's when your spending, never mind if your complaining!

Have you ever faced the same thing I am seeing (mentioned a couple posts back)?

No but as the RM accounts are not ... how can I put this... robust ... trying to fund on a AUD card maybe an issue.... Is your account in GBP or AUD? if you tried to fund in GBP then the card issuer normally charges the exchange rate

Okay this is weird. In my RM account, I can see the funds I transferred in a category called Total Balance. But the Available to Invest category shows £0.

And when I am on my cart, it says insufficient funds.

Any idea what might be going on?

RM are a strange beast...stranger still their IT.

When I first set up my a/c and funded it, funds appeared in a/c, then disappeared, then reappeared after a couple of days.

RM work Saturday's UK time, so you'll be able to call their help line and actually speak to someone at RM who can help. Give them a call and make sure you tell them you are calling from Aust so they don't waste your time on hold and run up the phone bill.

As an aide, post initial issues in setting up and funding my RM a/c last Nov, I EFT'ed some funds yesterday - Friday am (Aust time) and much to my surprise, funds were in my RM a/c same day Friday am UK time....Apart from any RM IT issues, RM (and maybe their bank) may have some KYC processes to follow with first time inwards EFT's from someone??

Thanks @Oddjoband @Rll1288.

Looks like it’s been resolved as of this morning, so yay! 😀

You'll note too that when you look at the bullion sovs on the RM site, when you log in, some of the bullion sov prices will be displayed as USD, not GBP.

Oh I didn’t really notice that. Thanks for letting me know.

You got the full set! A man after my own heart! Are you planning on getting the Quarter too?

I’ll get them all too at some point. ☺️

And I believe @LawrenceChardsaid there might be a bullion Five Sovereign too at some point?

That would be amazeballs, but even being able to complete that elusive 4-coin set (albeit in bullion) would be nice!

Didn’t these come in any sleeve like the RM is advertising for the platinum Britannia?

No. Just a transparent ziplock bag with the product code & barcode on.

Ah okay. Slightly disappointing. They could’ve done a similar sleeve to the Britannia since this year’s Sovereign is special. 🙂

Agreed. That’s what I’m going to do. 😀

I was controlling myself to look only at the 1sovereign at RM site, but now i am tempted to also complete the set 😅 They look really nice together.

I understand that they are bullion coins, how is the condition of the coins in blister pack? Maybe the pursuit for MS70 starts

They look fine to me, but I'm not into grading so take that with a pinch of salt!

Here's my bullion double.  Just need the H&B sovereign to arrive now!

A lot of details been lost in the bullions compared to the proofs. Still want one though lol

They have to make them look rubbish so they can sell the proofs for twice the price! 😀

Think everyone should get a bullion for nostalgia....but just the 1, can't compare to a Proof imo.
