    Lou **, Account Executive, for American Hartford Gold is truly an angel in disguise. The situation in our country demands that our assets need to be protected with gold. But I could not convince my husband to buy gold, so I was left feeling financially insecure. Through some miracle an ad from American Hartford Gold appeared on his phone and clicking the link led to Lou Cannon and the path to our financial security - and the end to my anxiety.

    From that point Lou ** wrapped his arms around us and solved all our financial concerns. He gently educated us and even connected us with Wally **, who gave us a deeper understanding of the process and procedures. With both these honest financial giants in our corner, we made the leap into gold ownership with deep gratitude and trust. I'm sure that anyone fortunate enough to speak with Lou ** and Wally ** will feel as comfortable securing their assets with American Hartford Gold as we do.

    Have mixed feelings about this transaction. This company is very clandestine about their prices. They are more focused on selling you products that give them their biggest profit margin. I am not rich and was looking for something as back up collateral in case of an bad event. Not sure I got what I needed. Only time will tell.

    I had a very simple experience. The only problem I did have was with the place that I was getting the money out of. But that really had nothing to do with them. It was more a procedural thing that the other company just didn't wanna let go of the money. But it was taken care of. We went ahead and did it the way they wanted it and it was finally released.

    American Hartford gives you the song and dance and then, after you’ve signed up and paid your money, they would tell you that it's gonna be 10 to 12 weeks before you get the gold. I was looking for something to have in my possession and that was not what I intended to happen. That would have been something that would have come out right in the very beginning. But the reps were congenial and got right back on it.

    Everything was good dealing with American Hartford Gold. But the last call I was on was an explanation of what I was buying and it was very fast and very hard to comprehend everything. I understood it all but it's almost like it was read fast from a script. It's almost hard to answer or ask specific questions when you didn't quite catch every word. You're trying to catch the next word so you forget the word you missed. So, it's almost like it was done on purpose that way. The reps should slow down when explaining the purchase.

The pricing is good and over all I was treated very well. Daniel ** was excellent in explaining the process and I enjoyed working with him immensely. In retrospect, I feel that they need to explain their price guarantee policy a little better. I have not received my metal as of this writing and I am looking forward to having them delivered by UPS.

    The company has resolved the complaint to my satisfaction.

    Original Review: Aug. 7, 2023

    For several weeks prior to my purchase of gold for my IRA, the sales representative (Johnny **) used a very hard sell about the reasons to open a Gold IRA. When I finally decided to invest $60,000 dollars to do so... I was put in contact with a Mr. Wally ** who convinced me to purchase Australian Wildlife coins to protect against the possibility of any future gold confiscation by our government. The premium on these !/4 ounce coins was criminally high. But I was told that they were worth the price. Later when I looked into what a 1/4 ounce Australian Wildlife coin was worth, it was only about 75% of what I paid for them. This was a barely legal, pure and simple scam. My $60,000 dollars got me $45,000 worth of gold. Pure SCAM.
