    I've merged your thread with the thread linking to Martin's article about making money from your old phones, the posts are in date order so you'll need to start at the beginning of the thread :)

    Has anyone got a response from Mobile Phone Buyer recently?

    I have sent 2 emails, left a message on their voice mail to contact me and phoned again today getting no response. I have around 15 mobiles + accessories to sell to them, was hopping they would send a courier or at least respond. If not I will try some of the other companies Martin mentioned in his article.

    Just want to add a recommendation for mobilephonebuyer.net. They did exactly what they said.

    I emailed them, they responded within 24hours and offered me the best price for my phone over the other ones I tried (envirophone, mopay and another one who's name I forgot).

    Sent it off on the Tuesday, they emailed me Wednesday to say they had received the phone, I received a cheque on the Thursday.

    Sure feels good when these things actually go this smoothly.

    I used this bunch to sell an old Motorola. They offered £17 for it which seemed ok. They sent the bag, i posted it off with proof of posting over month ago. No cash yet and when I emailed them they said they hadnt recieved it and had had problems with phones being stolen.

    Can i get my money back from someone? Post Office maybe?

    Should they have a crime number if they are having these problems?

    I only sent with proof of postage and not recorder delivery as that just seemed like too much hassle changing the address etc.

    I sent my phones off to Mopay in August and they are denying that they ever got received so not convinced about them!
