Beware. Slow and unresponsive. Failure to pay in timely fashion.

First placed the order to sell my laptop on 1st October. Had email to say they'd received it 18th Oct, another email to say the quote had been revised on 24th October and immediately accepted new quote, so far so good. It's now 21st Nov and money still not received despite them telling me on 8th Nov I could expect payment within 3 working days to my paypal account. Emailed again on 15th Nov, no response and tried calling 21 Nov but they don't answer so another email sent... really should not have been this much hassle.

AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!

I am having similiar experience to other people on this site.They were very quick in collecting my latop on the 2nd march 2017, they state on their website that payment is made within 9 days,but since receiving my laptop, it has all gone quiet.I have sent email after email, and tried telephoning,but they don't answer the phone, it switches to an answer machine, and I have left some very angry messages.I have informed them that I intend to report them to trading standards and instigate a criminal investigation,if they dont pay me as agreed or return my laptop.But still no response.They have locked me out of the account I had to set up with them.Yes like so many other people I have been scammed and duped.BE AWARE!!!

prepare for a visit

absolutely disgusting. I will be issuing a small claims court claim shortly. sent laptop in January, value offered was well below that indicated initially. 4 weeks later I am still awaiting payment.
They don't answer phone and don't respond to emails
Next steps are:
I am going to pay them a personal visit. - personally and will be expecting my travel costs too.
If this fails I will be issuing a small claims court summons.
If that fails then I have some good friends in Croydon who may help.
This is actually theft so will also be reporting to Police.
Don't go near these shysters.

Avoid like the plague

Similar story to others, claim a change of spec means they can only offer you a lower price so I said just return it. They then said they would honour the original price. Despite repeated e-mails they have still not either paid me or returned the laptop.

unprofessional to the core

I sold my laptop in April, but even after a month I haven't got a response. They don't answer phone calls neither do they reply to emails. Eventually I got a quote saying the spec is different, but they didn't say whats the difference. Even after the deal was agreed 4 weeks back, I'm still waiting for the payment. Never deal with them unless you like the trouble.

It took 4 months and 18 emails, but they did eventually pay...

I sent my laptop to BuyMyLaptop - estimated £70 which was better than any of the other websites. The courier arrived the next day as advertised and took the laptop. We didn't hear from them for two weeks so tried calling - They have never answered their phone whenever we have called. Occasionally they would give a one sentence reply to a detailed email such as "your payment has now been accepted".
After two months, they offered a lower quote of £58. We accepted reluctantly, despite having no fair reason for a lower quote.
After two more months of consistent emails with responses such as "your payment will be with you shortly", followed by "your payment will be with you within 24 hours", (and still no payment), I started threatening with legal action, and eventually, much to my surprise, they DID pay.

I would not recommend but with persistent pestering with emails and legal action, they may give you the money they owe... I think it probably is a scam as most people give up or forget a long time before I did...

THIEVES! Absolutely disgusted!

It has been one month since I sent off my laptop to buymylaptop. I declined their offer after they deducted £32 from it! I have yet to receive my laptop back...

They do not answer their phones and they ignore my emails. I have reported this to BBC Watchdog and Trading Standards. Absolutely disgusting, they are nothing but lying thieves.

Scammers

It's been 2 months and they still have not given me the money quoted. They don't reply to the emails sent to them.
The experience with this company has been horrible. Nothing but thieves.

Avoid like the plague

Wish I'd seen Louise's review before I sent my laptop.
Reasons to avoid, they don't answer their phones ( at any time of trading ) Their reply's via email are haphazard at best, the length of time has now exceeded their own terms and conditions ( not that they seem so bothered ) so am planning a small claims court case in 7 days as have to wait this long to meet legal requirements.
If you're in the same boat, Trading Standards UK now have a file open on them, and I'm updating them through CAB.
So my advice, if you want to sell use ebay or a major retailer, do not use Buy My Laptop UK unless you plan on being a victim of this theft.

Good luck to new owners

I received a great quote for my laptop. Took a little longer to receive payment however they did notify me that it was because of high volumes of orders. Overall I am pleased with my order and wish the new owners the best of luck.

fast efficient and good price

The whole process of recycling my laptop was simple and easy to use. The courier collected my laptop the next day in a secure box, and I received my payment within a few days. Excellent service, would recommend.
