READ ALL BAD REVIEWS & AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

0 stars would be perfect!!

Sent off a Samsung S24 ultra in perfect condition. Was quoted £500 before sending.

When they receive it, they claim there’s an issue with the microphone (there was never an issue before sending as I had this phone checked before sending), and have quoted me £300.

When they sent the inspection report to me, none of the details matched up to the phone I sent them (the IMEI number was wrong, the colour was wrong, and storage capacity was wrong). When bringing this up, they apologised and said they’d messed up, but there was still apparently a problem with the microphone.

Also, the phone & inspection report were both checked over by a ‘team leader’, and somehow they didn’t realise it was the wrong phone either???

To make matters worse, they charge £10 to return the phone to you.

Scammers! I would avoid at all costs!

**UPDATE - The company noticed my bad review and decided to offer the full rate that was quoted online. Then after agreeing to this resolution, they proceeded to ask me to remove my review. I told them I’d amend it accordingly, not remove, once the payment had cleared in my account. I had been at work all day & hadn’t noticed the payment had cleared, and I had been messaged AGAIN to remove the review. Only updated to 2 stars due to being paid what was originally offered.**

We’re glad we were ultimately able to resolve the matter and honour the original quoted price, and we appreciate your patience throughout the process. That said, we completely understand your concerns, and we value the honesty in your updated review.

If there’s anything more we can do to support you or if you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Your experience helps us improve, and we genuinely thank you for giving us the opportunity to make things right.

Dont trust this company

I was looking at selling my Samsung galaxy s24 ultra and stumbled across this company on price comparison as they were offering the most money. I looked at the description and noticed that they were based in Preston ( where I live). Why post the phone when I can just go to the shop? So I did! I was quoted £460 on the website so I thought that id let the guy see my phone and then offer me the quote on the website. The phone is in near perfect condition and I got offered £300. I refused the offer and told him about the quote offered online and he just came out with some gibberish about warranty and stuff. Im glad I didn't get caught out by this company as I wouldn't trust them at all and I wouldn't recommend that you do either or they'll no doubt con you.

“Steer clear of these guys

“Steer clear of these guys. They’ll waste your time and your money. Dropping the offer from £480 to £240, a straight 50% cut is ridiculous. Other buyers are paying £350+ even for a broken phone. I’d genuinely rather give the phone away than accept a deal that feels like a deliberate rip-off

Please return my phone ASAP

THANKS

Terrible service - do not use

Terrible service - changed price from £424 to £160 claiming condition of the phone, made up lies about the condition and when challenged on this, they couldn’t answer. The phone was in great condition when sent in with only a couple of small scuffs on the outer case, they are simply trying to get more money out of you. I returned the phone to me and would definitely not recommend.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the revised offer and that the process did not meet your expectations.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to return your device promptly, and we wish you all the best.

Offered value far lower than quoted

Offered value far lower than quoted, waste of time. They send a video showing that the phone is in perfect condition with no marks to screen and no damage but very slight signs of use around the edge, condition from "good" -> "pretty good" updated price lowered by £120.

Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear you were disappointed with the revised offer and understand how frustrating that must have felt. Our grading process is based on very specific criteria, and even minor signs of wear around the edges can result in a change to the condition category and price. That said, we appreciate your honesty and will use your comments to review how clearly we explain this process upfront. Thank you again for sharing your experience.

Worst company to deal with

Worst company to deal with. Warning they won’t give you what they quote you for the phone, more half the value and come up with fabricated story’s that there is problems with the phone (battery, speaker etc). I was almost to the point of calling trading standards. Stay well clear

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet expectations.

Our quotations are always based on the information provided at the time and assume the device is fully functional and in the described condition. When a phone is received, it undergoes a full diagnostic check. If any issues are identified such as battery health, speaker performance, or other faults the revised offer reflects the cost of those repairs. This process is explained before any final decision is made, and customers are never obliged to accept an amended quote.

We strive to be transparent and fair, and we regret if this wasn’t communicated clearly in your case. We would welcome the opportunity to review your transaction and address any misunderstandings directly. Please feel free to contact our customer support team so we can look into this further.

Customer satisfaction is important to us, and we’re always working to improve our service.

SCAM - PLEASE AVOID

SCAM.
I was offered £250 for my iPhone 14pro (following testing) through my phone companies recycling scheme, but I had a look online and saw this company were offering £460. So I decided there was no harm in trying that first.
I sent the phone off using the prepaid pack which arrived quickly. Sent it on Wednesday morning and heard nothing for several days (even though their website suggests same day testing) and eventually the next week I got a WhatsApp message offering £100. The reasoning they gave was ridiculous, they stated scratches on the screen (which there wasn’t, I have several photos from before I sent it showing there are zero scratches). When I raised this, they replied saying scratches “may have been hard for me to see in the dark”… because apparently I live in complete darkness? I even suggested if they increased the offer to £175 then they could have the phone as it was easier for me. But they said they could only offer £130. For a decrease of £330 from the original offer for a phone that has never had any issues until they decided to make them up, that were not present in previous testing I had, I was upset.
I asked them to return the phone to me and they gave me bank details saying I had to pay them £10 if I wanted my phone back. When compare and recycle told me specifically that returns were free if I was unhappy with the price. When I told them this they said it’s only free if I create an order with them. Why would I need the phone returning if I did an order with them?
I’ve realised since sending my phone to them that almost all of their positive reviews come from people who have not reviewed anywhere else, so are likely fake. Please please PLEASE do not waste your time and send your devices to these scam artists.

Thank you for sharing your experience so openly. We're really sorry to hear that things didn’t go as expected with this company. Your detailed account is extremely helpful for others considering similar services it really highlights the importance of checking reviews and understanding terms before sending in devices.

It’s great that you documented your phone’s condition beforehand and stayed proactive in negotiating, as this is always a smart move when selling electronics. Your warning could save many people from going through a similar frustrating experience.

We appreciate you taking the time to share this and hope that you were able to recover your device safely.

If I could give a 0 I would.
Sent my iPhone 14 Pro Max with a few light scratches on to sellyourfone. After receiving a message with a list of problems and a below half the original price offered, I asked them to send back my phone. They said they would talk to their manager for a ‘better’ price but told me the ‘housing’ of my phone was very bad even though I had just had the back of my phone replaced. They were very difficult to contact on WhatsApp and their website.
They came back next day saying they would offer me £10 more than the price and that I wouldn’t get a better price elsewhere.. funnily enough I’ve just sold my phone to another company for a lot more money who said there were no issues with my device other than the light scratches. Avoid.. avoid.. AVOID!
