They fulfil their promises

They fulfil their promises. I have used other companies in the past who pay less than they quote. So I was pleasantly suprised to receive the promised amount quoted and quickly. Would definitely recommend.

Dodgy

Dodgy. Firstly an as-new iphone miraculously had 2 chips on the case when it arrived that were not there when it was sent. Make sure you take pics before sending anything. Secondly agreed on a price of £36, they only sent £35. Use someone else.

Reply from Preloved Tech

Hello,
Thanks for your review, we do encourace honesty in customer reviews and the very few 1-star reviews are carefully assessed to ensure we maintain our very high standards and are replied too with the same level of honesty to bring balance to the review.

I have looked at your order, and I can see our technician did note some cosmetic defects to the device which were communucated to you with photos in an email. We did have to downgrade the offer price to £36 in line with the condition, as you correctly stated, and we also offered to send you device back completely free of charge if you didnt agree with the revised offer so you werent out of pocket. We never hold customers to ransom, hence always offering to send devices back free of charge.

You accepted the regraded price, and this was paid the same day. I have checked the bank records and can confirm an error in payment and £35 was sent to you instead of £36. This was purely a miss-key by our finance team, the missing £1 will be sent to you when the office opens.

I do apologoise that on this occasion the process hasnt gone smoothly for you, and we will use this case to provide further in house training for our team. Customer service is of a high priority to us, hence our very good feedback score across all platforms.

Thanks again for your feedback.
Matt

As soon as I contacted pre loved tech…

As soon as I contacted pre loved tech they was amazing and very helpful with exactly what I was looking for, the price they offered me was much better than anywhere else. As soon as I received my phone I checked it and it was exactly in the perfect condition it was described to me. Would 100% recommend.
