Gold Star was pretty good. The arrival of the check for the rollover IRA was painful. It all worked out. All the people with Goldstar were very nice and patient.

Thank you for your review. We strive to be exceptional and will reach out to you shortly.
I am excited about converting my IRA to precious metals. GoldStar was highly recommended. However, when I call, I am put on hold for almost an hour. Emailing is better, but my last email has not been answered. Thus, it would be nice if it was easier to communicate with GoldStar.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with our team! A representative will be reaching out to you.
I set up a new account with a company and initial phone/e-mail communication was great! Once I had provided everything that was needed it was several days (July 25 - Aug 4) and I did not receive any communication. I reached out on Aug 4 and the representative admitted the application was complete on July 25 and apologized for not setting up the account when documents were received. I was trying to be patient as I am sure this company is extremely busy these days, however It was important because I was waiting to provide an account number from this company to another vendor to complete the entire process.

Hello, We apologize for our long hold times. We are working diligently to get everyone taken care of as quickly as possible. We appreciate your patience.
Customer support is great when you get through to someone. But I was on hold for 45 minutes before I got to speak to customer service.

Please let us know if you need anything further by contacting us at [email protected] while our call volume is high. Thank you,
Transfer request form was faxed to wrong fax number. It appears to be an accident, granted, but it delayed the process about a week to wire my traditional IRA into a precious metals IRA. Other than that, nothing but a good experience thus far.
