    You will find the more techy phones don't fetch no where near as much as they should - check out the i-mate section.

    It's nice to be nutty but's more important to be nice
  • Drop them an e-mail or give them a ring. I've found them very helpful. Also if you have a bulk or spam e-mail folder check that. I've found that any mail I receive from them goes straight into my bulk e-mail account.

    I sent a fone on the 28th feb - emailed as passed on the 6th march and after a while rang them on the 17th to be told it should land on my ecard by the 22nd - this seems like 14 working days from passing the test or thereabouts - will post as soon as credit lands on the card (theres a number on the back of the card to ring and check - so far its said card not registered). My phone was A nokia 7600 = £47 ecard creds.

    Bad news that, it's perhaps worth paying for recorded delivery in future especially if your sending a few phones, the freepost envelope is a dead give away if some dodgy toerag comes across it.

    Yes I decided best to send recorded and at post office they deducted the freepost bit and just charged me for the recorded part - came in at 60p - recomend everyone does this to make sure it gets there - only takes the person emptying the postbox to have a slightly dodgy nature with the envirofone plastered in big letters to entice.
