Poor Customer Service – Paid for registered postage to have a bracelet, I purchased online, looked at for repairs as it snapped. There was no record of my online purchase therefore could not repair the bracelet. How is it my fault that your online system failed to keep a record of the transaction? How else would I have bought it when you have no stores in Melbourne?? Do better TS
Tarnished “gold plated” – I was gifted an anklet for my birthday in March 2024 which I didn’t wear straight away. When I checked up on it, the 925 “gold plated” anklet has tarnished really badly. I contacted TS customer service with the same photos I have attached in this review, & they said that this was a normal thing with their 925 jewellery. I was disappointed to say… Read more
the least, as I have other gold plated jewellery from less known brands with a lower price tags that I have had for many years that has not tarnished as bad as my TS Anklet.
When I finally decided to wear it, the clasp was loose from first wear. Really low quality and items. I have other TS items from 7-10 years ago which was good quality. But it’s not the case anymore.
*** Have added a product review on the Thomas Sabo website but it doesn’t look like they publish any reviews on the site, hence why I am writing another review here to make my opinion public to warn other consumers***

Hi AJ, Thank you for your review. We understand… Read more
terrible – What I ordered VS what I received. Very misleading. Have to send back for a refund. Customer service is also terrible didn't even offer to send me the correct one after spending $1500 on 2 separate orders he same week :(. Would not purchase again from this company they don't value customers.

The quality of the jewelry is trash. I purchased a piece which has started to lose the gold plating and I haven't even wore it once. Show details

CHEAP jewelry that falls apart! – I received a Thomas Sabo necklace as a gift, and the material that makes the necklace has become brittle and started breaking. It was only worn 4 times. This is disappointing for any jewellery as it shouldn't happen ever, let alone for a higher end brand necklace over $50. Customer service simply tell me to pay for a repair. I would not buy a Thomas Sabo product ever. Show details
Good and friendly service – I like the design and products. The products price is affordable too. Unfortunately my rose gold bracelet colour has changed and can't be cleaned or nothing can be done to restore its original colour. It is a pity when I paid more for it than silver or gold bracelet.

excellent service! – I purchased a gift for my daughter online on April 25 and to my delight it arrived on April 27! It is perfect for the occasion of her upcoming wedding. A beautiful quality piece.It will be treasured! Show details · 1
Great customer service – Besides selling beautiful jewelry I was extremely impressed by Thomas Sabo‘s customer service. I broke my necklace and it was my own fault and they kindly swapped it even though it was outside of warranty. Thank you! Show details · 1
Customer service is excellent – I had an inquiry in regards to a piece of jewellery so I emailed them on the email I saw on their Instagram, they promptly replied to my emails both times and were very helpful. Sharon in particular was the one who responded!! Show details · 1

Poor quality and returns process – Clasp arrived faulty and unusable. No formal trackable returns process. Just have to post back registered post at my OWN cost for their poor quality. Then YOU have to follow-up and maybe they will reply. I have not had a reply yet, guess I need to chase Tom again. Would not buy anything again online. Show details
Poor service – Times have certainly changed, use to purchase a lot with TS but most recent purchase goods arrived and quality looks poor. Then try to return and there is NO stores so you have to pay the cost of Registered Post. Take my advise don't deal with them online as there is no after service or care factor. Very disappointing indeed. Show details
Terrible quality and no responses – Ive ordered alot of jewellery with TS ive had to send more then is reasonable back for repairs - i only wear their stuff occassionally and keep it in the boxes. Most recently a pair of earrign has lost a stone and they have not replied to two emails in a week so i can find out where to send them back for repairs. Show details

Poor customer service – They assessed a charm I had purchased as 'wear and tear' when it broke after two wears. Wanted 40 dollars to repair it. Never again, I'll purchase from another company. Quality is clearly terrible if this is the case. Show details
Very Disappointed with the Quality – I bought a pair of starfish earrings from Thomas Sabo 18 months ago. They are very pretty, but unfortunately one of the shafts snapped off. I sent a photo and asked for help from their customer services team. They advised that as the warranty is only for 12 months, I would have to pay to send my earrings back to them. They then send them off to… Read more
Germany for assessment and perhaps a repair that was going to cost $40+GST. I wasn't happy with this so they offered to reduce this price to $30+GST.... This brand markets itself as selling jewellery 'of the highest quality'. Don't be fooled. High quality jewellery doesn't break after just 18 months.....
Disappointed – I purchased the dragonfly watch for my birthday costing over $500 on sale. It arrived 24 hrs later. I opened the box and it picked the watch up, immediately I was shocked at how cheap it felt, it was very light, the clasp felt flimsy. Unlike all of my other watches that have some weight to them and feel like Ive paid for something decent. This one… Read more
was similar to a $40 watch I had bought for my granddaughter. Albeit the dragonflies and jewels on it are pretty but I wonder if it will last more than a couple of years. The warranty is only for 12 months. I emailed them the day it arrived writing what I have here but no reply, I have also commented on their Instagram page but still no reply. I think these watches are over priced.

Long Long Wait and Isn't Anything Special – The plain and simple fact that after a tremendous wait time from the original 14 - 21 days, the ring is as good as any on ebay at a 1/8th of the price. Admittedly the Customer Service was pleasantly administered, though it didn't finish off as it started. As for my second order I've ended up with a poorly sized ring as I attempted to speed up the… Read more
process by taking a different size that was in stock (my original order size still not available, and most other sizes either) and am now concerned that the amiable service may have dissipated due to the horrendous amount of time it took to fill the orders and my last contact with Thomas Sabo Customer Service which was disconcerting. The overextended order time gave me the opportunity to purchase rings from other sites, just as varied in design, and much more affordable. My advice is to take your time and look at other options before Thomas Sabo, which I'd say was mid-range in affordability, because there are some marvellous designs available at a real bargain price. Remember silver is only $30/oz $Aud.

BAD QUALITY!! OVERPRICED!! – When I received my broken watch in the mail, the customer service team refused to put it under warranty, saying it was my fault. Now I hadn’t even worn it yet, so I fail to see how I could’ve pulled that off. The young women, trying to help over the phone, insinuated that I was lying and asked me to pay the fee to get it to them. So I payed for a… Read more
broken watch, payed for it to get sent back and they made it seem like I was the one being difficult. What a horrible business you’re running here. OVERPRICED AND BAD QUALITY!

Love their concepts – It's basically sterling silver, and not that expensive stones, but I love their designs and concepts. I have beads and ring. I am a man and think It's suit me. Beads are not catchy compared to Pandora to be honest. Maybe that's why I like it. I actually mixed both Thomas Sabo and Pandora's beads on my bracelet. Also, I recently bought Crown Ring. I don't know if it is $500 worth but I simply love it. Show details · 1
Highly fascinating Jewelry Designs and Quality – I first purchased from Thomas Sabo a year ago when I found this amazing Ankh necklace. I have to admit as an Egyptian, I never found such a unique Ankh design as such ! At first I thought of it as a bit over priced but when I received the order I was so satisfied with the premium quality. People just kept asking me about this pendant and from… Read more · 1
where I bought it haha. I recently ordered again but this time several products and really can’t wait for the order to be delivered. Thank you for providing me such a unique look with your jewelry and I am definitely a collector now !
One last thing !!! PLEASE consider making more Egyptian Designs like “Eye of Horus” and “Cartouche”

Very upset, angry and disappointed – I purchased the ‘love cuff’ bangle online for my best friend for her 21st Birthday and I got it engraved (knowing I couldn’t return it) because I was confident in my purchase and didn’t think there would be any issues. I have purchased from here before and loved the products and Thomas Sabo is meant to have a good name. However, when the cuff… Read more
arrived and I opened it, I was so disspointef as it doesn’t look like it does on the pictures online. It is so tiny and thin, looks cheap, it’s flimsy and it doesn’t fit on the arm how it’s meant to because of the make and shape and therefore doesn’t allow arm movement. I spent $229 on this product which is so over priced and such a waste of money. I have been refused a refund or any form of compensation because it is engraved as stated in the policy, but I can’t believe there was no leniency or consideration due to how terrible the bangle is in person, compared to online. As a result I am stuck with this piece of jewellery that looks cheap and childish that I am meant to give to my friend for her 21st... how embarrassing. I would call it false advertisement and I will never purchase from this store again.

Great service and very impressed with the one year warranty cover – I love the contemporary styles and the security of their quality assurance, with the one year guarantee. A stone fell out of my ring, and there were no quabbles, they simply took it to repair it. Very impressed in an age where things are made to fail. I'll be back! Show details · 1
Great service – Have purchased quite a few beads and charms over time and always receive the same great service If items are out of stock I ask to be notified and usually get reply within a week.

thing I would ask is if we had the option to leave parcel in a safe place rather than requiring a signature cause I often miss it. Overall though an amazing company to deal with
