I'm looking to recycle our old phones and came across www.pound4phone.co.uk ... they're offering waaaay more than the usual sites, so I'm wondering if anyone actually knew of them? I found them on a google search ...

Thanks!

    Just sell the phones privately, more fool you if you get suckered into these inflated prices, no one ever gets the price that's if the companies ever send out the money or admit even recieving the phone.
    I will look out for yet another sob story of using these con merchant type, they have been featured on enough consumer programmes as a bad idea.

    Have you tried any of the better known suppliers with a good track mentioned in the MSE Tool http://mobilevaluer.com/

    Thanks for the replies ... I did have an inkling that it was too good to be true, but thought I'd check before I sent them! And, if anyone knows a dodgy vendor, you guys would!

    Cheers! :beer:

    I've already sold 3 of my phones with them without problems though! so i think they are geniune, the prices they offered me in that time was the best one around, also thought that might be fishy but amazingly they paid me within 3 days of receiving my phones and on top of that free postage and bag. another of my mate sold couple of his phones without issues so I guess it is thumbs up from me.
