United Gold Direct Doesn't Deliver! They charged my credit card and did not deliver the gold.  And the silver I received cost $37, nearly 70% higher than their competition, United Gold Group (http://www.urcgold.com/)

I heard United Gold Direct from a guy at work. I called their office, and ended up buying gold to be shipped to my home. They told me it would take a few weeks.

After a few weeks and no gold, I started calling them to find out where my shipment was. I called many times but my rep Corey Harrison wouldn't call me back, so I got concerned and decided I wanted to cancel. My account executive Corey told me that 4-6 week waits are typical. Since no one would call me, I went on right to the Better Business Bureau.  They Don't Have a Better Business Bureau!!!!  After several calls and complaints with Adam Blaser, I was told that they do not offer refunds.  I began my research of Adam Blaser and I found out that he has a long history of ripping people off!

I was so hurt that I trusted them and they have not deliver the gold. They ripped me off royally because they could get away with it

I sent an email to Adam@UnitedGoldDirect.com, but he wrote me back stating that "My order was still being processed".

I was so upset I called the "state of california" to complain, and it turns out they had numerous calls about the United Gold Direct. This made me even more worried that I had been ripped off.

So I called some other gold companies, like United Gold Group (http://www.urcgold.com/) about this thing, and they told me they're not having any problems getting gold, so I feel like United Gold Direct is lying about my gold and just took my money.

The name of this company should be United Fools' Gold! I would recommend anyone to steer clear of doing business with this company. They might look good on paper, or have a good website, but bottom line is they don't perform, and they sure as hell don't deliver. My next step is to take legal action against Corey, Adam Blazer and the United Gold Direct!  Next time buy from a reputable company like United Gold Group.

Wow, I saw this exact posting, copy and pasted from another company on this site from an earlier date! Looks like someone is jealous. Your Numbers Are All Wrong False Person. I myself, became a client of United Gold Direct in Oct 09' around the same time of this original report, and I paid $19.65 per silver ounce. United Gold Direct is great! So hard to find good business practices these days with all the competition, who knows who to buy gold from. I called United Gold Direct to rollover my previous 401k and as simple as 1,2,3 they guided me through the process step by step. Even today I get follow up calls. Feels good to know a company is right by my side. I had such a wonderful experience that I referred my brother in law to take physical delivery of gold and silver through a cash position. They honored the special advertised right on their home page, "For a Limited Time Only, Silver $0.99 cents over Spot Price" As a thank you for repeat business through another client, United Gold Direct sent me free gold and silver that I received 9 business days after his purchase. This company says what they do, and does what they say. If you are looking for a long lasting relationship, Call United Gold Direct. Tell them Chad sent you.

Report is a Hoax!

After a thorough investigation, we have concluded without a doubt that this allegation is nothing more than a disgruntled competitor envious of how we exceed our customers expectations by delivering metals in a timely manner and at competitive prices. Furthermore, this alleged report posted by SSmith222, is strikingly similar to other reports filed against other companies, specifically report #456210 filed in March '09 and report #465545 filed in August '09. Who knows how many other false reports have been filed by this person. We are disturbed that people in our industry will stoop so low to fraudulently disparage another company in their industry rather than focus on their own customers experience.
