    Excellent customer service

    Excellent customer service! I bought a reconditioned iPhone for my granddaughters birthday. On arrival it would not connect to WiFi. I contacted them, spoke to a lovely lady who immediately agreed to send out a swap the next day. It arrived on time works fine and in better cosmetic condition! Birthday saved!
    So much better to actually speak to someone to resolve issues than an endless list of bots!!!!! Thank you

    Hi Helen,

    Thanks for leaving such a fantastic review.

    It's a shame the first iPhone had a WiFi issue. But I'm really glad to hear our customer service team, and the 'lovely lady' you spoke with, quickly sorted it out. We believe in real human interaction to resolve issues quickly, not endless bots, which is why all our customer service is handled in-house here in the UK.

    It's great that the replacement arrived quickly and was even better cosmetically. We put all our refurbished devices through extensive certified checks to make sure they're 100% functional, and we only use the highest quality parts in our refurbishments. We are so happy we could save your granddaughter's birthday!

    It sounds like you've discovered one of the industry's best-kept secrets. We are not a massive household name, but we have some of the highest customer satisfaction rates and product standards, all backed up by our amazing customer support team.

    One more thing, don’t forget your old phone! We buy phones working or not. Simply follow the instructions included with your order and send it back using the same packaging.

    Best Regards,

    This is the 3rd time I’ve used The Big Phone Store and it was the first place I looked when I wanted to get a replacement phone.
