Holsted Jewelers
Reviews and Complaints

Everyone should ask themselves, How could a Jewelry company give away rings, with free shipping and possibly stay in business? No one can give away rings and not charge shipping and stay in business long. Impossible.

ordered through harriet carter, received flyer with harriet carter order from holsted jewelers to receive 2 free rings, paying shipping only. two weeks after i had paid the shipping and received the rings, over $100 showing pending in my bank account. called customer service, and they informed me of details to keep receiving jewelry every 4-6 weeks with charges. i explained that i had not been told this when i called to receive my 2 free rings. representative kept arguing that they are required to explain this or cannot process order. very misleading company, had they explained the details, i would never have agreed to that and keep having money taken from my checking account!

I have called repeatedly and told them not to send any more items to me and to discontinue the credit card charges. I have been told that no more items would be shipped and my account would not be charged only to find that 3 weeks later another shipment arrives. I was told that if I write on the envelope "return to sender", without opening the item that no shipping charges would be debited from my checking account. But every time they only credit back a certain amount so that I am charged the shipping of $6.99. I am so tired of this. Can't these people be stopped if there are so many complaints?

TOTAL CROOKS. THEY JUST KEEP ON SENDING JUNK JEWELRY TO ELDERLY CONFUSED WOMAN WHO CAN'T GET BACK TO POST OFFICE TO RETURN THEIR CRAP. CALLED HOLSTED JEWELERS TODAY (HAD TO LOOK NUMBER UP ONLINE{BTW IT'S [protected]} SINCE IT IS NO WHERE TO BE FOUND ON PAPERWORK THEY SEND YOU) TO CANCEL THEIR AUTOMATIC PROGRAM. NOW I'M GOING TO HAVE TO CHECK HER CREDIT CARD STATEMENTS TO SEE HOW MUCH THEY RIPPED HER OFF.

GOD! I hate stupid people,

I also agree with you I Myself ordered 2 rings just Pay $6.99 X2 S/H 1 ring came in a week later the second ring had not came in I called costumer service After being transfered 3 times a woman Named Lawanda Price told me it had shipped and that I should receive it in the next 3 to 4 days then tried to sell me another ring and get me to sign for Great fun and shoppers Advantage clubs after telling her no I thought it I was Through with them that was a month ago. then I check my bank Account and discover a charge for $39.99 to Hom* Hol*Hom I Called the # Listed and it was Holsted Jewelry I think these People need to be stopped

I totally agree with you. We must remember however that "nothing is free", there is always a catch. When I receive things like this, I always check the complaints online first. Saves allot of headaches. Thank you for posting. My card is in the garbage.

I HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH HOLSTED JEWELERS, AS MADMANDY. HOLSTED JEWELERS SENT ME A CARD STATING THAT THEY BECAUSE OF THEIR APPRECIATION OF ME THEY OFFERED ME TO ACCEPT ONE OR TWO RINGS WITH THEIR THANKS. THESE STACKABLE GEMSTONE BAND RINGS ARE FREE AND ALL YOU PAY IS SHIPPING AND HANDLING, PLUS APPLICABLE TAXES FOR EACH RING. I CALLED AND PLACED AN ORDER TWO FREE RINGS AND HAD TO PAY FOR SHIPPING AND HANDLING WITH MY BANK DEBIT CARD. MY ACCOUNT WAS WITHDRAWN ON 1/24/12 OF $6.99 X 2. I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE RINGS AS OF 2/16/12 THEREFORE I DECIDED TO TELEPHONE HOLSTED JEWELERS TO CHECK ON THE DELIVERY TIME. I WAS TOLD THAT THE RINGS WERE MAILED OUT AND SHOULD BE DELIVERED VERY SOON. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WAS TRYING TO SELL ME MATCHING EARRINGS AND I REFUSED THE MERCHANDISE AND ENDED THE CALL. ON THE NEXT DAY WHILE CHECKING MY BANK STATEMENT ONLINE I DISCOVERED TWO WITHDRAWALS OF $56.98. I WAS DEVASTATED BECAUSE I AM ON A STRICT BUDGET AND EXPECTED BILLS TO BE PAID WITH THE BALANCE IN MY ACCOUNT. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THESE WITHDRAWALS WERE FOR. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE BANK AND THEY GAVE ME A TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR A COMPANY SHOWN AS HOM*EARRIN. I CALLED THIS COMPANY AND DISCOVERED IT WAS HOLSTED JEWELERY. I ASKED WHY THEY TOOK $113.96 FROM MY BANK ACCOUNT. THE REPRESENTATIVE, MYLES, SAID THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS REQUIRE THEM TO SEND YOU MORE JEWELRY ITEMS FOR YOU TO TRY OUT, AS WELL, THIS ACTION WILL HAPPEN EVERY FEW WEEKS. YOU CAN RETURN THE JEWELRY AND YOUR ACCOUNT WILL BE CREDITED ONCE THEY RECEIVE THE MERCHANDISE. I BECAME EXTREMELY UPSET AND TOLD HER THAT I WANTED MY ACCOUNT CREDITED IMMEDIATELY. SHE THEN SAID THEY WILL CREDIT MY ACCOUNT AFTER I RECEIVE AND THEN RETURN THE MERCHANDISE. MYLES THEN TRIED TO SELL ME ANOTHER JEWELRY ITEM AT WHICH TIME I BECAME IRATE AND TOLD HER THAT I WILL CONTACT MY ATTORNEY BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE MY APPROVAL TO WITHDRAW FUNDS FROM MY ACCOUNT AND I DEMANDED THEY CREDIT MY ACCOUNT IMMEDIATELY. SHE RELENTED SAYING THAT MY ACCOUNT SHOULD SHOW THE CREDIT WITHIN 3 TO 5 BUSINESS DAYS..
I TRULY HOPE THAT I SEE A CREDIT WITHIN 5 DAYS AND NO MORE OR I WILL HAVE TO FILE A CLAIM THE GOVERNMENT AND A LAW SUIT. I AM SO DISTRAUGHT BECAUSE THEIR ILLEGAL ACTION HAS PLACED MY ACCOUNT IN THE STATE OF INSUFFICIENT FUNDS. ALL WHO HAVE ENCOUNTERED THIS ILLEGAL ACTION FROM HOLSTED JEWELRY SHOULD JOIN TOGETHER AND FILE A JOINT ACTION AGAINST THIS COMPANY ANYONE INTERESTED MAY EMAIL ME AT dena62145@gmail.com. LET'S STICK TOGETHER AND SHUT DOWN THESE MONSTEROUS THIEVES.

I have been ordering from Holsted Jewelers for months now, I to received a card stating I was going to be receiving two free rings of my choice and I would have to pay for the shipping which was 6.98 per piece. The catch to this is you have to call the 800 # within 10 days to tell them you do not want any more pieces to be shipped. They do honor your requests and nothing then is billed to your charge card and you get to keep the two free rings. Its that simple. Make sure you call within that 10 day time frame to cancel the matching pieces that they want to send you. Good Luck

This company is a RIPOFF. THEY have hit my account 66.00 twice still no refund or jewelry.Dont believe them

To holster jewelers, I got a card in the mail saying that I have won $100.00 an a free $25.00 Wal-Mart gift card. It is a lie. I called to claim my winning on [protected] an spoke with travis. Travis told me I would received my stuff in one two three weeks. I wanted one month, so I called not once but twice. she hung up on me the frist time .I called back to see if I could get a refund an she said (NO).IT was never shipped. my bank statement shows that they took my money an want give it back.Total was $7.98 cents.Please don't believe this company they are full of IT . angry lesson well learned .

Please I received this official notification unclaimed reward claim number [protected] in the amount of $125 I called the [protected] and they answered told me I won 2 rings value $57 each plus the $25 Walmart gift card only want shipping for each which is $8 I always get a visa gift card for $25 I'll make sure only $10 is available I'm disabled and could use these well will I get them or not please give me a yes or no ! Here is the pic of the official notification thank u please advise much love

Value and a $25 Walmart gift card I called [protected] claim number [protected] they answered asked my ring size should I get a $25 visa gift card to pay shipping $3.99 for each is $8 they cannot take out any more as I will make sure that only $10 is left on card please tell me I will get my rings and gift card? Disabled would really like!

I think I just got scammed. What do I now? In my email I had these Choose your Free RIng by holdsted so I bought one free except the shipping and handling which was 4.95. After I read all your comments Im scared they are going to take out my 48.36 balance on my mastercard. Help Me What do i do?

I am so sorry that you experienced something negative from this company, but I have been dealing with Holsted for several years and I have always had a good experience with them. I have received more than a dozen pieces of jewelry that I have given as gifts and kept for myself, all for as little as $6.99 apiece. The thing to do is that as soon as you receive the jewelry, you call and cancel all further orders. That's what I've been doing all these years and I've never had any problems. Once again, I am sorry for what you experienced.

I tried getting in touch with this company and it is a SCAM! This was fron FragranceNet.com. It offered a stack of three ringd, all I needed to do was pay shipping and handling. The lady asked me if I wanted the earrings to match them and I told her NO! She asked if I wanted the pendant to match it, I said NO! A few weeks later I get the earrings in the mail. By rights I should have kept them but I sent them back. They took the money out of my account. $56 plus shipping and handling. Didn't take them long to take my money. I don't know who is going to send me my money all of it, including shipping and handling. Only cost a dollar to mail it but they charged $6.50. Maybe other people can afford to have their money scammed from them, but I WANT MY MONEY! I had to cancel my card so I won't get scammed again.

I got a postcard from hosted jewelers, I called got web page which isn't much of anything, so I checked complaints on here, thank god I did, save me ther money and hassel of these people. Thank u everyone : )

Too bad these people don't put the same time and effort into making an honest living. Do want to make a few comments about a credit card offered by a TV Shopping Show. If you sign up for this card you have to buy something every month, or else pay them at least $1.00. If you don't pay them the dollar they can legally hit you for a late fee, most likely $25.00 or so, plus 20-29% interest on whatever they conjure up. When I saw that I was so disgusted I didn't bother to read the rest. It was laid out plain and simple. I went to pay their bill by phone, (again for an elderly friend who fell for this), and found their customer service number is not in service. What the ___###? I will send them a money order thru snail mail, as there is no way they are getting their conniving hands on my friend's bank account number until I can get that card cancelled. With a dollar a month plus late fees from thousands and thousands of customers they should prosper. However they are starting out looking like a mean sneaky scam and there is little reason to believe they are not just plain crooked or will ever change their ways. Just because something is legal, that doesn't make it right.

This comment is for JazzyCat23. I too have received the postcard for 2 free rings. There is no statement, anywhere on the card that says a person is joining a jewelry club. I have looked on the front, middle, and back, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! I must also remark about your comment that people are greedy. In this time and age, it is really a nice thing when a person is selected to receive something free. Our economy is so bad that we have to count even our pennies to maintain our livelihood. It saddens me tremendously that you are such a critic about someone wanting a free gift only to find that they are ripped off. If these companies will do as they promised and not try to scam people, then our world would be a better place to live in and just maybe our economy would not be in the state it is in now. If you think about it, use the example of: a coupon is sent in the mail from a new steak restaurant and it says if you come in to their restaurant you get a buy one meal and get the other free. When you finish your delicious steak and lobster meal, you pay with your credit card only to find out on your next monthly bill you are charged for both meals and for 2 bottles of fine champagne that you never drank. Would that not be illegal? Would you consider that greedy on your part for using the coupon? I think not. So when you get a postcard saying you are going to receive a free gift, is that greed?
To my heartache, I will not call Holsted Jewelers for my free gift after reading these complaints. Thank you for taking the time to warn me (or us) about this scam. I will now throw my postcard in the trash!

How does a person take care of this ? Who do you report this scam to? I didn't order these additional pieces of jewelry and told them not to send anything to me so how do I end this? A Senior in MN

hi there

I also fell for the free gift what a fool I was but as soon as I hung up I found your website and the complaints . I immediately called american express where I have been a member since 89. I told them the details and as usual they told me not to worry. These vultures continue to prey on folk. thank goodness I used Am Ex and not my bank debit/credit card. I then called the company Holsted back and cancelled informing them that regardless of their attempts Am Ex would not be paying them. I guess I will have to wait and see what does or does not arrive in the mail. thank you american express and your site

Actually, I have had nothing but GOOD from Holsted. I used to get a delivery each month and if I liked it it kept it, if not, I returned it. Maybe they went downhill since bought by SusanB? But Holsted was always good to me, and when i cancelled, it was cancelled.

They hide there identity so you can't reach them to cancel your account. I found it!

There name is Holsted Jewlers but there name for the company phone number is Susan B. customer service. I hope this helps everyone. The phone number to cancel Holsted Jewelry account is [protected]. Call them they are nothing but scammers that will continue to send you items and over charge your account. Good luck everyone.

Have a wondeful day. :P)

I can see that this company Holsted which it seems has now changed it's name to "Susan B." jewelry (probably because of all the complaints) has caused people a lot of hurt, pain and money. I just wanted to Thank You guys for posting these complaints! I just received this "Free" gift offer in the mail today...with Newport News as their partner. I was simply checking out their online site when I noticed the Complaint Boards as the #3 site from the top of the search page. That usually means there are inordinate amounts of complaints regarding this company. Thanks to you guys, I summarily ripped up the card and contacted Newport News. I directed them to remove me from any further third party referral offers. Keep posting, whether you were scammed or not. That will push this Complaint Site to #1 instead of Holsted, aka Susan B.. now, and people will be duly warned not to get involved with these kinds of unscrupulous companies.

Holsted Jeweler did the same thing to me only took money out of my bank account and now you can't even get ahold of them over the phone and do beleive they out to be going to court to be made to refund people their hard earned money. I am seriously considering doing this myself. I returned their crappy merchandise and have not received my money back.

Same thing happened to me, I am trying to get my money back, and they keep charging my account, this better stop.

they took $66 out of my account. i told them i wasn't interested in any other orders. i was told the package had already been mailed, i could send it back not opened, just refuse the package and they will refun half the price back. who does this? really? i want a whole refund. brewton, .alabama

I was offered the 2 rings with just shipping and handling but Sai I was not interested in the monthly club. I stressed this several times. Then about 3 weeks later I noticed a $66.00 charge. They said I signed up for the club I DID NOT. They said they would cancel but could not until I returned the order, which I have never received. I will be contacting the company again, since I am living in an independent living facility and my income is limited.

I changed my credit card account number as soon as I knew that I am enrolled in this program. I also sent them the form saying 'I do not wish to receive future items from this collection'. Some complaints were suggessting that even after sending that form they can send. I am not sure just changing my cc number changed will be helpful or not.

That is true that in first call the representative cannot cancel you out from the program. She said to me that after you receive the gift you can exit the program by calling or sending an attached form with the shipment. I think many people have not declined it after and it is our responsibility to pay attention and respond as required.
Even after declining, if they send then only it can be called a SCAM. Not yet a scam for me.

Thanks

Here's the deal. When you call for a free ring, you are going to be offered more stuff. There's no getting around it. The sales agent is required to present the offer. If you decline future shipments, you are not getting a free anything. EVEN IF YOU TELL THE SALES AGENT ON THE PHONE THAT YOU DON'T WANT ANY FUTURE SHIPMENTS THAT IS NOT ENOUGH. The sales agent has no control over stopping future shipments, and you won't get sent the free jewelry unless you agree to future shipments. SO GET THE CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER UP FRONT AND MAKE SURE YOU CALL TO DECLINE ALL FUTURE SHIPMENTS WITHIN TEN DAYS LIKE THE SALES PITCH SAYS. YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO WHAT IS BEING SAID WHEN YOU MAKE THE CALL. Listening doesn't mean waiting for your turn to talk, or interrupting the person talking to you. It means hearing and absorbing the terms and conditions of the offer being made to you. I'm sad for those of you who think you were scammed, but it's your responsibility to pay attention and take action. You made your own mess.

I also received the same card with the same Amethyst and Topaz rings. I never heard of Holsted Jewelers and knew it was a hoax.How can "They" appreciate me when I've never had any dealings with them. Please remember the old saying...If it sounds too good to be true then it is!

skeptical

Yesterday I received a card with a free offer for an Amethyst and a Topaz Ring. Nice looking rings, I must say.
In my case, 'Holsted Jewelers' are associated with 'Supermarket of Savings'. There is definitely no small print, that states anything about joining or paying a membership.
It gives me an 800 # to call and a Free Gift Code. On the bottom it states " all you pay is shipping and handling plus applicable taxes "
The Card is even personalized to me... really easy to trick you into believing legitimacy.
Thank you, to everyone who posted their complaint, it certainly stopped me from calling.
I hope with my posting, it will help to move up on the board of complaints.

I did the same. Requested the Sapphire and Garnet Rings *FREE* and only had to pay the S&H of $6.99 each. The rings aren't so nice anyway but I figured, "hey, only $6.99 each, what do I expect?". Anyway, it was a ONE TIME thing because I refused ALL other offers! WELL, now my card has been charged $56.98 TWICE for a pair of Sapphire Earrings and a pair of Garnet Earrings. I'm so frustrated ! ! ! I called my bank and told them not to allow these charges or any other charges EVER from this company! I'm very upset!

I would like to get a phone number to contact them about recent charges on my credit card. If some one could get that for me I would really appreciate it.

@ Stealth Pilot. Be careful not to blame the victim...my Free offering postcard I received, had no such fine print about any ongoing club MEMBERSHIP fees. It simply said "All you pay is $6.99 S&H and applicable taxes". I can see that this company Holsted which it seems has now changed it's name to "Susan B." jewelry (probably because of all the complaints) has caused people a lot of hurt, pain and money. I just wanted to Thank You guys for posting these complaints! I just received this "Free" gift offer in the mail today...with Newport News as their partner.

they have charged my card twice and i cancelled the shipment and still got charged they are a scam

I have not ordered the colored glass jewelry but they keep sending it! I guess they themselves know how ugly their staff is and that nobody is voluntary buying it.
They take money out of your account and don't give it back. Do not even order ones from them because you have to fight them later. That business is a business full of thieves and fraught.

I am having the same problem as the woman above. I sent back an order (that wasn't ordered) with the slip that stated I didn't want any future merchandise sent. Today I received two (2) new rings that Cooking Club of America had sent to me with the understanding that they were FREE if I paid the $6.99 postage. That is not what this invoice states. It states that I will be charged $39.99 EACH for these rings. Trying to contact first Holsted Jewelers and then Cooking Club of America has been one big runaround. I will have to pay a fee to Discover to stop payment on any future shipments and that doesn't guarantee being credited the $39.99 each/postage/handling currently being processed. I have forwarded all of my information to my attorney and have decided to let them take care of this.

I recieved a watch my husband bought for me from Holstead and it was missing a diamond, the wrong color, and also had a hinge in the back which was not shown in the picture on the site. I called your customer service number and spoke with Laura. She told me someone from UPS would pick up the watch within 7 business days. I waited, and left that watch on the front porch even in a rain storm, but noone came to get it. I called back... spoke with Laura again. She told me she'd contact the company for another ticket to pick up the watch. 4 days later, I contacted her again and she told me she wasnt able to get in touch with the manufacterer. I asked repeatedly to speak with a supervisor or manager because I didnt want to leave the watch outside. She told me no supervisors were on duty after 5pm. A couple days later we got a call saying a UPS guy would pick up the watch in 3-5 days. Noone showed again! I wrote to your "customer service" department and requested a call back. Someone should be going over and above to assist me at this point! Noone even wrote back in the 48 hour time frame it says it takes on the website. I called again... this time I spoke with Jeana. After I told her I wanted to talk to a supervisor she transferred me to Laura! I asked if Laura was a supervisor. "Yes" she claimed. Interesting, she must have been promoted in the past month. So I'm getting the same run around again... Laura will contact the manufacterer to pick up the item (in 7 days). You're company is such a scam. If they really cared to assist their customers they would have an easily accessible return slip inside the box that was shipped with the original item. I fully intend to tell everyone I know and don't know, on all the websites I can find, about my terrible experience with this company. As we speak, I still have the crappy watch that cost over $100... it's February and my birthday is coming up. This watch was ordered mid December for my christmas gift. I will NEVER buy from them again.

I was also scammed, I got my 3 free rings and holstead started sending me packages of jewelry that was of poor quality and made in China. They were charging me 59.95 per package and 6:99 shipping, but billing my fingerhut account. They have billed me so much in the past 3 months that there is nothing left in my account. I refuse to use their return label and pay another 6.99 to return their crap, so the first time I put my jewelry in the little bag they sent it in and sent it in a regular envelope. It was less than 1.00 . I was never given refund of any kind. I will not let this beat me. I'm gonna take every legal outlet I can to make their life, and their business a living hell. Has anyone thought about starting a class action lawsuit, ? If anyone is interested contact me thru my email...cunvdme@gmail.com

I ordered one thing via my Fingerhut account. I read everything including the tiny print no where did it say the would charge anything except s&h. I was not aware that it was a reaccuring monthly charge. The run a scam and all companies mailing the ads need to stop before they lose customers.

As a customer of Paula Young Wigs I received a "gift" from them at Xmas time. It was the opportunity to purchase stackable birthstone rings for free, well just to pay the shipping and handling. As a preferred customer I purchased two and was only charged the shipping and handling of $6.98 each. I was given the opportunity to join Holsted's monthly club, but I cleared refused, stating I only wanted the special I was entitled to as a Paula's customer.
I received the rings and they were junk. A month later I had two charges on my card for their monthly club, which I had clearly refused. I of course, called right away and it has been days of calls and promises that my $114 will be released, should already have been released etc. I was given a phone number for their corporate office in New York, which went to an automatic recording.
DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM!

I am soo sick and tired of dealing with you ppl! On January 16th, 2016 I received a Card in the mail stating I had won items just scratch off and see what I have won. I did and it said I had won 2 rings and a $25 Wal-Mart Gift Card PLUS... if I pay extra to a trial offer of their sales book or whatever they called it I'd receive ANOTHER $25 Wal-Mart Gift Card so I did. They immediately took the money from my account, exactly what I was required to pay and I received my 2 rings and 1 of my $25 Wal-Mart Gift Cards but it wasn't as easy as that.Through out the following months I continually had to call them and ask where my things were I paid for...ALWAYS got same answer...we're processing them should be ANOTHER 2-4 weeks...that time came and went...still NOTHING! At one point I had to have my Credit Card cancelled and get a new one because they were taking money out here and there. I have had to call them and fight them for what I PAID FOR and here it is 8 months later and even though I've gotten my 2 rings and 1 of my $25 Wal-Mart Gift Cards I'm STILL fighting this SCAM OF A COMPANY! At one point I was told I could call and talk with the main person over them..Mr.Murmur..lol...what a joke he is..I called left message..he NEVER returned my call...I've written him STILL NO HELP...All I want is what I PAID FOR..I'M SICK OF THIS RUN AROUND SCAM! I WANT my last $25 Wal-Mart Gift Card I PAID FOR! So now I'm going to talk with the Postmaster General and report them for fraud! I WILL HAVE the Federal Government notified of my problem with this company! I'VE HAD IT..ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

I got a mailing from Holsted Jewelers the first part of April. I was also told/through the mailing that I got that all was ONLY pay $ 3.99 P/H on them.
B I saw that I had a choice of 2 FREE RINGS/ winning a monetary gift card from Wal Mart (to which I'm yet to receive.)

Today I went on our Bank's website/ Holsted took out an additional $ 66.98.

Yes! My credit card numbers were stolen a few months ago and someone charged on it. This never happened until charging jewelry to Holsted. Apparently, they employ dishonest people who steal! I also received a notice that I'm entitled to a $25 gift card, due to purchases. I'm told to type in my award number at their award website but this website does not exist! No more business with Holsted.

It has been two months still have not got my 25.00 dollar Walmart gift card. I have got a letter from Holsted Jewelers for instruction to get my card but the site is not coming up .I am upset that i haven't got my Walmart gift card.

When i first got the order and found out that they wanted authorization to go on my account monthly and take money off i immediately said no, i don't even allow my utility company to go on my account and do an automatic draft then i got a picture of a heart necklace i wanted for my daughter so i called and order it, i saw a charge on my card the next day then i called them and ask why was the charge so high that not what the offer was for they stated that' s what it was for then a week later 2 days straight they went on my account and took a total off $200.98 without authorization, once i called in he said they had selected some jewelry for me and it would be coming in the mail all i needed to do was refuse it and they would return my money on my account . This account was my disability check goes so i will cancel my account, so that no other fraud can be summit on that card and i hope they put my money back on my card today. I want nothing else to do with this company and their jewelry look very fake.

So all I was to pay was shipping on 2 items. But I never received my order and they where still charging my card for merchandise and pizza and movies

holsted is a fraud..they said they where sending me a 25dlrs visa card, everytime i call they give me the run around..this been going on for 3months..they do anything to sell this fake jewelry..i report this to the BBB.

I have ordered ring from this company and I was happy with my product but because I've moved and I change my number I am not getting through

There is a time to unite and put the owners in prision of this company and its afilliats. They have made millions off the hard working men and wemon for years the m.o. is the same. I would love to have my attorneys do whatever is necessary to put this company under. I know that all of us who got are good faith treated like tolet paper and are money taken by them need to understand one thing, there still in business. Why I ask you because we allowed it. At least those before me. Myself am asking each one of you who were lied to and conned help me take this thieves out of business as well as prosecute them to the full extent of the law and my fellow Americans if Holsted Jewelers has by some means stayed under the limits set by existing laws then we must petition for laws to address this situation. Am Ray Steele I live in Los Angeles California. My number is [protected] call me and I'll give a means to a end to the corruption and fraudulent means of Holsted Jewelers. They are liers there crap is worthless and they got nothing but decite in every piece of paper they use to milk us. Please help me put this crooks out of business. I am a vet a carpenter and they roped me off I fought for you now help me fight for you again and I give you my word I will not stop until they are stopped.

Army so Raymond Steele I gave a eye and put a patch on and stayed 7 months longer doing my job **** this mothers call and will run there scam ty

I purchased a set of rings from Hosted Jewelers, paid the shipping and handling fees. They have now subsequently charged me over $200 for, I don't know what as I have not made any purchases after the initial and only purchase. I have emailed the company requesting that I be reimbursed for the charges that they made without my consent. I am upset that I did not see this website before I made the purchase.

i was supposed to get a pair of ear rings in the mail, got the envelope but no ear rings

I too, out of the blue have received two shipments (both) rings from. Holsted Jewelers and find myself disillusioned with with company. After googling them and finding this complaint board site... I called them and told them straight up that I DID NOT want anymore products from them.

I also told them that IF any additional charges other than the 6.99 each for these two rings show up on my credit card-I would NOT HESITATE TO HIRE A LAWYER. They assure me that as of today (8-29) that they have removed me from their list for any future shipments. The rings are ugly and poor quality...nothing that I would ever wear!

they best take me serious... As I mean business. I will NOT fool around with these scammers...they best NOT fool with my credit. Everyone who continues to have problems with them-we can all use our social media/word of mouth to spread the word that they're problems! Tell EVERYONE you know. There is power in the word of mouth-I say we spread it like wildfire. Let's tell the world-the power is in our hands!

Airdog

They're at it still. Just rec'd a card indicating that my "Friends at HOLSTED JEWELERS" are sending me FREE rings because "We appreciate you!"

Glad I googled it. There have been a couple of other times when I should have, specifically with "Avesil" for weight loss.

Be prepared, but don't get cynical.

Omg. So glad I found this website. I just got a postcard in the mail offering me two free gifts from Holsted Jewelers. I will be putting that postcard in the shredder! Thanks for sharing.

I received postcard from Crossings Book Club indicating Holsted Jewelers was offering a Free Gift valued at over $50.00. All I needed to pay is shipping and handling. I am so glad I found this Web site. They can keep their FREE GIFT.

Thank you for these e-mails. I received notification from Chadwicks that they are sending me a gift from Holsted jewelers, and that all I'd have to pay is 6.99 shipping. I'm so glad I reviewed these first.
