    So easy

    So easy. Took me about 20 minutes to set up, package and post. As promised, money was in my account as soon as they received the phone. Just perfect service and a very fair price, more than I would have received for a part-exchange on a new phone.

    Hi Mr Sleigh,

    Thank you for your review.

    It's great to hear our trade-in process was so easy and quick for you to set up, package, and post. We designed our system to be straightforward. We are also happy the money was in your account as soon as we received your phone, just as we promise. We pride ourselves on honest payouts and paying the full quoted price on the day we process your device.

    It's fantastic you found our price fair and better than a part-exchange. Our new trade-in system gives a price that truly reflects your device's exact condition, even for broken or faulty phones, to avoid hidden reductions.

    Great phone, great service

    This was my first time buying a refurbished phone, I got my son a Google Pixel 8. It arrived within 36 hours of ordering it. It was well packaged in a good quality box with air wrapping inside, and the quality was just as advertised - pristine. There were no scratches on it, it looks new, performs very well and my son and I are very pleased with it. I'll be buying a phone for myself from here in the near future
