    I sent them a fully working N95 for which they offered £69 and now they are saying it is worth £13, would never recommend them to anyone!
  • I used them a few weeks ago, very quick process and paid the money that was quoted on their website

    These are the types of stories I've been worrying about. I did contact customer services who said that you have to pay £5 to get it back if you feel the offer is unjustified.

    Thanks :beer: I've ordered my envelope with them now anyway so and their Customer Service replied to all my emails within 15 minutes so it's promising so far!

    Well, here's an update. Posted it off to them on Friday 20th via Special Delivery and they picked it up Monday, tested it, cheque sent out for the full £94 on Tuesday and it arrived here Wednesday. Customer Service was excellent too, replied within max 20 mins of all my e-mails. Brilliant service!

    Owch!!!

    Now I'm worried!!

    Like you I've got a N95 that I've got packed ready to send to RPC..

    The Phone is fully working (even updated to latest Firmware and tested), new battery cover (Original covers were badly designed and the locating tabs broke easy!) and only the menu rocker has any wearing.

    I'm heading to the Post office later today to send it off. now I'm worried!

    Should I risk it or send it to a more well known company...???

    It was the best price by £5 or so.

    I'm sure i asked to be paid via paypal, but i've not got a confirmation from paypal yet!

    Not sure if they are paying by Paypal or cheque!


    But apart from that Good Quick Service!! ^_^:T

    At least you were paid I suppose, I had no problems though and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. :) :T

    Cheque came in the post Friday Morning.
    But was late afternoon before I could get to the bank to put it into my account.

    Just gotta wait till it clears sometime later in the week!
