    I agree. These guys are fantastic. I sent 7 phones special delivery on Monday, email on Tuesday to confirm receipt and cheque received on Wednesday. Their speed is fantastic. They also give you a referral code to use to get £3 for each person you refer for the next 3 months.

    Very happy customer!!
  • I returned a Sony Ericsson phone to Fonebank and although it worked fine I had dropped it several times and it had cracks to the casing. I therefore applied for a non working credit but to my surprise Fonebank actually sent me a cheque for a full working version and paid up within a week of receiving the phone.

    Very impressed.
  • Going to be sending 2 phones, a N96 and a N95 8GB, hopefully I'll not have any issues.

    Feedback needs to be about a factual experience. Whats the point in leaving a comment about the phones you're sending in and hoping you won't have any issues????????????

    I sent a broken Sony Ericsson to them. Got a cheque for £12 the following week. Would definitely recommend them. :T

    And to think I was going to give it to Boots so I could get points on my advantage card - a whole £3!!! :rolleyes:

    I nearly used Love2recycle because it said good feedback rather than Fonebank's limited feedback. Luckily I read the feedback for both!
    Love2recycle sound as though they rarely pay and then late.
    So I posted my phone to Fonebank early one afternoon. I paid 75p for "signed for" and used their freepost address.
    The following day I got an e-mail confirming receipt of the phone.
    The next day I received the cheque for the full amount promised.
    Excellent service and top rate for the phone :j
