How wld you be able to tell if if the Diamond is a H&A one??
Does it say anywhere on the cert??
Or is it based on what the seller tells you??

No. Try to type in the keyword "H&A" in this forum for search and you will read all about it. As far as I know, only IGI - for the LOVE diamond and CGL provide complementary pictures of the H&A with the stone.

When you do a search by cut quality here on PriceScope there is a link to their tutorial on H&A and there is also another comprehensive tutorial covering certain different aspects on our website within the chapters on cut. Feel free to browse both. I think everyone here who sells them would agree that if the stone is a true H&A it is one that would have to be presented with photographic evidence as there are many diamonds on the web being advertised as H&A that simply are not. Here's' an example of a stone that was being advertised on the web as one which after testing proved to be false. http://www.goodoldgold.com/1_31ct_d_vs2__h&a.htm
