MobilePhoneBuyer.net Problems

  • I too am having problems with this company - no response at all after sending an iphone 3g 16gb in on the 10th, sent it special delivery but post office have a signature so say it was delivered so insurance will not cover it for going missing (although they now limit payouts to £100 so would still be out of pocket).

    Not very happy at the moment
  • Hi. Well, at last, the money was put into my bank for the Apple 3GS (took 11 days). Maybe they are very busy - but its no excuse for poor customer support. Maybe some hope for all you lot out there waiting for money.....

    mobilephonebuyer.net - GET A TELEPHONE NUMBER and some decent SUPPORT ;)
  • At last!
    Mobile phone buyer has finally credited my account.
    22 days late!!
    I will NEVER use their service again.

    I was starting to get a little concerned the time it was taken to receive my payment.
    It took around 3 weeks for payment to go through.
    No communication nothing!!
    I would never use these again.:mad:
  • Has anyone sent a phone to mobilephonebuyer.net i have been waiting for a month now they said they has transferred the money into my account 2 weeks ago they have not responded to my emails and there phone number is out of use has anyone else been ripped off ?
  • Hi,

    I sent a phone to this firm on the 02nd December and received an email saying it was received, since then I have had no contact and have emailed them several times and just get an automated response. Their website states payment within 7 days and this has been well over a month. I only found this firm because of this site so dont feel Martin should be advertising this firm when they are clearly not paying for phones received.

    I am concerned now as the phone was worth £80 and it doesnt look like I am getting anything.

    Anyone received any money recently from this firm?
  • Hi Gordon,

    How did you contact mobilephonebuyer do you have a phone number for them.

    Many Thanks

    I too am having problems with this company, i sent them an Apple Iphone 8gb over 2 weeks ago by recorded delivery, I received a prompt email 3 days later to say they had received the phone, then another email 4 days later to say the money had been put into my bank account, all good you think.

    I have now waited 6 days since receiving that last email for the money to go into my account & still nothing. I have emailed them about 5 times and still no reply, they guarantee payment within 7 working days from receving the phone!!

    I only used the company as i went through Martins comparison tool on recycling mobile phones, if it had not appeared on his tool then i would of not used them & used someone like Love2recycle who ive used before with no probs.

    I think Martin seriously needs to look at this company & the amount of bad complaints on here against them, as to letting them appear on his comparison tool.
  • I too am having problems waiting for my money.
    My account status says they sent the payment on 6th December 2009,but still nothing.
    No reply to 2 emails either.
    Just wish i could get a phone number to get hold of these people.
    BEWARE OF THIS SO CALLED COMPANY!!

    Any help on this would be great x
