    nice reviews, me and wife just got iphones so will be sending nokia n95 8gb to them after reading some good stuff. although will send it special recorded for peace of mind.

    just to clarify, do they want just the phone and battery, and nothing else?

    i have immaculate box, charger, cd, manuals, headset, tv plug in wire, computer usb etc. this must worth something?

    Yep - they just want the phone and battery.

    After reading the reviews on the MSE Forums for all the companies that quoted - I chose to use Fonebank. They were not offering the most, however, they seemed to be the only one that consistently got good reviews.

    I charged mine up before sending in (via Special Delivery just to be sure!). Posted my Nokia 6210 Navigator on Monday, received a confirmation message of receipt at 10am on Tuesday and the cheque for what they had quoted (£71) arrived on Wednesday! Absolutely brilliant service!:T

    i wonder if the original packaging and accessories would fetch anything on likes of ebay?

    Used Fonebank 2 weeks ago. Sent phone freepost, got e-mail within 2 days to say all ok and a cheque 3 days later.

    Excellent service.

    3 x nokia n95 8gb to send off (mine, wife and siter)

    will be doing it special delivery tomorrow for peace of mind.

    shame the prices has gone down ;-(

    see other places which is a bit more, but going for the good feedback of fonebank
  • I was very impressed with Fonebank. The cheque arrived 5 days after posting the phone (including a weekend) & for the agreed £27. Receipt of the phone was acknowledged promptly by email.

    24/03/10 recieved email saying cheque being sent out

    26/03 recieved cheque of full amount ;-)
  • i sent just the phone by itself, forgot to include my order number or anything. they identified it through the return address on the back of the envelope (my home address) and dispatched the cheque which i got within a week. perfect :)

    Very impressed with the service from Fonebank. Sent my phone using the Freepost address on Saturday (obtained proof of posting from PO), received email the following working day to say phone had arrived with them and they would be sending my cheque. The cheque arrived today so very fast turnaround :T

    Also used quidco for £3 sign up cashback.
