STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITE!! I placed an order back in January not realizing there was a monthly membership fee. Once I saw that I contacted them immediately and told them to cancel my account. It is now June and I was looking through my online bank statement and it turns out they never canceled my account when I told them to. So last night I sent 6 emails telling them to cancel my account and refund ALL CHARGES. I also contacted my bank and Jewelmint has been blocked for 3 years from placing any charges on my account. I received an email from Jewelmint today stating that 5 charges of 29.99 will be refunded to my account(proving that I did in fact tell them in JANUARY to cancel my account) within the next 3-5 business days. Slam them with multiple emails to cancel your account and then contact your credit card company or bank and let them know these are unauthorized charges if you told Jewelmint to cancel your account. I will never do business with a company like this again.

Some of their pieces are nice. I do like a ring and bracelet that I bought from that site, however everything else that I bought I regret. The gold on a necklace, which I love, is fading, the lock on some of the bracelets don't work and I have to check my wrist all the time to make sure none fell off. Quite a few items look and feel cheap and at $30/each it's quite pricey for not great quality. I really believe I'll have longer lasting jewelry at forever 21 or something. And it will be alot cheaper.

Ok... jewelmint certainly has its issues but some of their pieces are worth waaaaay more than 30..and yes..some are just crap. I always love their necklaces.. their rings havr turned on me... their bracelets are 50/50..but I now read blogs and their facebook site to see what other customers have to say.. and since then I have only found the best pieces. I dont like how you only have 5 days in the beginnning of the month to skip a purchase.. I usually never remember until its too late... I'm sure this isnt lost on them. They do need to send more coupons as well and show reviews on their site

This site is fraudulent, as is any site with "mint" in the title (i.e. Shoemint, Stylemint). Started by Bergman, these sites take advantage of unsuspecting shoppers and share you EVERY month whether you purchase something or not, issuing you a "credit." Worse, they only give you 5 days of the month to "opt out" of being charged that month. I have never seen anything so fraudulent, and I'm sure it is just a matter of time until these sites are closed forever! Stay away. The greed and manipulation of these sites is sickening!

I actually love this site and can see why so many people do too. It's exciting to see the new designs that come out every month, and most of the pieces are very beautiful and unique. JewelMint has really made me love jewelry and changing up my look. Before I signed up, I basically just wore the same few high-end pieces I have to death. I love having a little collection of cute statement rings and necklaces to mix things up.

One negative: the quality is kind of hit and miss. So it really pays to do research (i.e. look up blogger reviews/videos to see how the pieces look in real life). If you do this, you shouldn't have any problems, seeing as most of their top-selling and most reviewed pieces are usually the ones that are the best quality (I have a few that definitely look and feel more expensive than $30.00, but I also have some pieces that are a little disappointing, but that was before I starting doing my homework and seeing what others had to say about them).

The customer service is okay, I haven't really had any real problems yet, so I can't completely review them on how they handle difficult situations (like charging you even after you skipped the month--which thankfully hasn't happened to me), but I have used their live chat to ask quick questions, and they're always very helpful and responsive.

I also love that they have a Facebook shop that allows you to earn points and redeem them for rewards that you can use to save money off your purchases. They also usually have a lot of promos going on for both new and existing members.

The only thing I don't really like is the $9.99 shipping fee for Canadians. But there's not much they can really do about that.

I got the December mystery bag recommended by LC Conrad and the jewelry in it was so cheap and gaudy looking! I would never wear it. I wrote to C/S and it took writing 3 times b4 anyone responded. Of course I can't return this cheap jewelry. I then ordered a ring before knowing the bad quality of this jewelry on 1/6 and still have yet to receive it. Again I have contacted c/s 3 times with no response. My advise do no order from this company unless you like cheap gaudy jewelry with bad customer service.

I did sign in just to see the jewelry, but haven't provided my credit card info since I don't like the pieces they post. They look too cheap to be $30. I'd rather use that money to buy something that's a better quality. JM pieces look like Walmart with a high price tag. And the "style test" is rubbish, I could hardly find anything remotely likeable in the pieces they recommended according to my results. Very nice concept, but how disappointing!

This is the worst company I've ever had the displeasure of working with. I'm reading all these great reviews on blogs, etc., but really, anyone who is getting jewelry for free would have only nice things to say about it.

I was charged for 2 months that I clicked "SKIP MONTH" for. The first time, I emailed them, they emailed back, and refunded the money immediately. Fine.

The second time, I emailed twice, no response at all and it has been over a week. I then sat on hold for 15 minutes and talked to a representative saying she would send me an email notifying I would get my money back and I also had her cancel my account. 3 days later, NO EMAIL. I check my bank account and there is nothing regarding a reversal from Jewelmint. I sat on the phone for another 15 minutes only to be sent to a recorder to "leave a message"

The jewelry isn't worth $30, and while it is a monthly jewelry subscription, I'm not comfortable with them making so many mistakes with my account, especially considering they keep your credit card information. I'll be damned if I let them get away with even just $30. That's $30 they don't deserve out of my wallet, ever.

I really wish I had done my research before signing-up with this site. I got a great deal on my new bracelet. I love the bracelet so far (I've only had it for about 2 weeks) and the order was processed quickly and it was packaged so nicely. However, like a lot of people, I thought I was just ordering a piece of jewelry. I knew that I was signing up for a "membership", but had no idea that I would be charged $29.99/month unless I "skipped" within the first 5 days of the month. Nowhere in the sign up information does it indicate that there is a monthly charge of any kind. In fact, in the confirmation email I received when I signed up it specifically says "free membership" at least twice. I'm hoping to be able to receive a refund for the $29.99 they charged me, but judging from what read here I'm not very hopeful.

I never paid full price for their stuff (since I always used a code), so I was mostly happy with the quality. However, the shipping was extremely slow. They use a third party that delivers the packages to the post office. And several times the post office sent the package to several different states despite being in my hometown before it made it to my door.

I do think that they're over-priced, and this shouldn't be a membership site. This is geared towards young women who most likely won't read the fine print, and it's unethical to charge people for something they do not intend to buy.

This website is a total scam!! BEWARE! If you make a purchase - any purchase - they save your credit card information, then BILL YOU once a month for $29.99!! This gets you a "credit" for one piece of crappy jewelry minus shipping which you have to pay for yourself. I was STUNNED when my bank account dropped by $30 bucks, at Christmastime, and guess what? I never got the ring I ordered but was still charged.

It is a scam site. There is nowhere the possibility to cancel account, nor to remove a credit card, yet they keep charging you over and over 29.99. I have to cancel my credit card to resolve this issue, as jewelmint does not address concerns at all.

they charge you even when you "skip" the month! they are patronizing and unethical. save your time, money, energy and sanity. this company can not be trusted!

I would give this a zero if I could. This is an absolutely terrible company. Since signing up I have had nothing but problems, just like everybody else. This company considers their services a "membership" therefore they will not refund you even if you do not want any jewelry for the month after they have charged you. If you want to discontinue your membership or halt payments, there is no way to do so online, you must call in and wait for approximately 5-10 minutes to reach a customer service representative (if you're lucky enough to have someone answer the phone). In fact, their website saves your credit card information and continues charging you every month without any forewarning. I have also been charged several $1 fees without forewarning and for no apparent reason. On top of it all the quality of the jewelry is no where near the $29.99 price mark. I sincerely hope this operations is shut down before it takes any more money from unknowing customers.

I have had a similar experience to other commenters. I thought I was buying one piece of jewelry (and I do check these things carefully), but it turns out they have been charging my card $29.99 for the past 2 months. I have sent them an email and am waiting on their response. Shady.

E-commerce sites should offer seamless navigation, 'place-order' options, and transparent customer service. Jewelmint.com has none of these things.

After clumsily maneuvering my way through the site I placed an order .After entering my cc information I got a message indicating it was declined. I tried the process again. Same thing. Different cc. Same thing. I then noticed the charges were all appearing on my statement. I tried to 'live chat' but no was there. I emailed live chat. No one got back to me. I called the customer service number. The first question asked was did I call my bank. They said someone would call me back and no one has.

I think the jewelry designs look great on the site but this web-experience is ridiculous in the this day and age. I wonder who is running this site and why those in charge don't change this quickly. (there are tons of customer service co's who would be glad to get the business). The whole process is disrespectful to the user.

This is the absolute worst business ever. Stay away!

I ordered a piece of jewelry for a friend's birthday, and it came in a really nice box, so i was excited about that. Here birthday is coming up so I'll see then how the jewelry is. Then came the surprise.

I got charged on 8/11 for the piece of jewelry I bought.
Then, got charged on 9/6 and 9/7 their monthly 29.99 fee (I didn't even buy anything)

So, I called them and emailed them about it, asking to be taken off of their plan and that I was no longer interested, and they took those two charges off, but then charged me on 9/8 for 29.99!!!!!!

So, I called them back today (9/12) to see why I had an additional credit card charge, and guess what, no record of that charge even so they asked me to send them my credit card number (the entire number) as well as my credit card statement, since that was the only way they could "determine if charges were made".. I'm sorry, but you must have a pretty fly by night company to not even have a RECORD of charging your customers and be unable to find out where the charges came from!!

Save yourself and NEVER JOIN THEM!!!!

Overpriced costume jewelry. My necklace was green within 2 months of light wear, go to Target for something better and less expensive. Charges even though you skipped the month. Zero customer service

-UPDATE- I just got charged $29.99 despite Skipping the month. For many people, this meant that they got overdraft charges; thankfully I am not one of them. Stay away from them! ...I better see the refund they are promising.

They had recently changed the location of the "Skip the Month" button, but obviously did not bother to make sure that it worked. What a disappointing company!

-- Original Review of "OK." --

JM is a subscription jewelry site. Signing up is free, but once you make your first purchase, they will continue to charge you $29.99 monthly. In return, they give you a "Credit", which can be used to purchase any item from the website and never expires. If you don't want to be charged the $29.99 monthly, make sure you select "Skip the month" before the 5th of every month!

If you've yet to make your purchase, make sure to look for a discount code. There is often a 50% off and sometimes a 70% off code floating around.

When you initially sign up, you take a style quiz so they can recommend you 6 pieces each month based on your answers. However, you can always click "Show Me More" to see all the items available that month. I personally have not found the style quiz useful since most of their jewelry aren't my style.
Warning: If you remove an item from your Showroom, it never comes back! You can still purchase it, but the link to the item is no longer readily available.

So far, my experience with them is good. It took 4 long days to process my order, but arrived 2 days later! When I received my Very Audrey earrings (which I LOVE!), I was very satisfied, because the quality was on par with what I expected from a $30 pair of earrings. I've heard that if you contact JM about a defect/breakage shortly after buying, they are willing to replace it!

Now here is why they are getting only an "OK" from me. They recently had a promotion code for $7 off + a free random piece valid for the first 500 people. However, a lot of people did not get a free piece, even though the code worked for them. JM's reply was that only the free piece was for the first 500 people. The promo never differentiated the $7 off from the free piece. How are people to know that the $7 offer was still good after the free gift wasn't? What a gamble!
I personally did not partake in the event, but I can see why people were upset. If the code had worked for me, but I did not receive a free gift, I would have been very disappointed. Everyone has their own opinion (i.e. some people say getting $7 off is good enough), but I do wish JM was more upfront about the situation.

Also... They recently released a Black Swan Cuff, but there is an almost IDENTICAL item on eBay for $4.25 and a very similar item for $5.81.

Overall, I think JM is worth visiting. They have some very interesting pieces, but there are definitely cheaper alternatives. If there was no JM, there would be no Very Audrey earrings, so for that I am eternally grateful! Just keep everything I've said in mind and no unexpected surprises will slap you in the face!

I didn't even realize that this was a program that charges you a monthly fee. I just thought I was ordering a necklace. However, 3 months later I find that Jewelmint has been putting charges through to my credit card every month for $29.99 even though I haven't been ordering anything. The problem is that I have tried to contact jewelmint repeatedly (and I mean over and over and over and over again!), but can never, ever get a live person to talk to. I am first put on hold for a long time and then finally a recorded message comes on and asks me to leave them a message and they will call me back. RIGHT!!! I have left repeated messages but no one calls back. I am very frustrated. It seems I cannot cancel my membership through them and I also cannot get this problem resolved through them! I finally called my credit card company and they credited my account for 2 months, but I suppose I am still going to receive monthly charges from jewelmint since I haven't been able to speak with them to cancel the membership. I also cannot find an address on them to just send them a letter! I am extremely frustrated #$%#$#$%

Shipping: very good. I would receive the shipment confirmation and tracking number within 2 days of ordering, and usually it would arrive 3-4 days after that (however, I'm not too far from the company so it could take longer to arrive somewhere else). Going through the Facebook, shipping is hit or miss for a lot of people.

Returns & Customer Service: Unlike most other sites, JM does not provide the return label automatically, you have to request it. They have a live chat, but getting a hold of someone can be very difficult. You can just leave a question for them or send an email directly, but it took them over 5 days to reply when I simply asked for a return label. Furthermore, JM wouldn't provide the return label unless I gave them a reason for my return -- by that time I decided I would rather have all transactions completed instead of dragging it on, so I wouldn't know how good they are about crediting your account after receiving the return.

Quality: fair. I've had a couple of pieces from a while back that were pretty good, if I had seen them in a store, I would've bought them. However, the more recent pieces have been very poor quality and feels like cheap Made in China crap (which it is). I plan on keeping my account only to look at the pieces for inspiration because they are quite beautiful in the pictures. However, I would suggest that you spend the $30 elsewhere.

I have to admit that I am NOT good at picking out jewelry - or putting it together with clothes. Jewelry was always an afterthought, until I met Jewelmint.

I really like the variety of pieces, and the quality is generally good. They have a great customer service team, and they do rereleases of old pieces frequently. There is an active facebook group where you can get more styling tips etc. Plus, start with a groupon so you can test it out without having to commit to the monthly charge. I like it - and highly recommend it to my friends.

I love JewelMint. Most of the pieces are outstanding quality and customer service is amazing. I can see why someone who was not "fashion forward" would not be interested. If you are someone who loves unique jewelry at a fair price you cannot go wrong.

I thought this looked like fun so I joined. I picked one piece out and it arrived but was too small so I returned it. I asked for confirmation that it had gotten there and heard nothing. I forgot to cancel for the next month, but didn't receive anything either (need to check my credit card!) I looked at the site a few times and there was nothing to choose from. Most items were sold out. I tried to sign in and my password wouldn't work. I asked for a new password twice, they sent a new one, but neither would work. I have sent an email hoping someone will respond. I am canceling and finding my jewelry elsewhere.

My girlfriend was eying some pieces on this site. I "signed up" (I know it's a site geared toward women, but I wanted to get it as a gift), took the quiz, trying my hardest to answer like my girlfriend would, and ordered 2 pieces.

The packaging was fantastic. Just amazing. I didn't even have to wrap it. The box came with a little not and the pieces were on display, inside. She loved it, and the only cost me $60.

She has since taken over the account I created to buy her gift.

I agree with Ashley's comment above. I was so excited and thought the jewelry looked great online. I read somewhere that the pieces were much more valuable than the $29.99 price. Nope. Each piece looked & felt like it was $10 worth maybe. One of the pieces even fell off my necklace...the glue came undone. I am done with Jewelmint. The concept was great but the quality is terrible.

I found the concept of JewelMint to be fun but upon receiving the jewelry, I was so disappointed with the quality. I could honestly go to Claire's and get something nicer for less than $10. The second item I got from the site was literally something I wouldn't even give my 12 year old niece to wear. It looked like a ring from a gumball machine.
