“Sent 3 items, and surprise surprise, 2 items were devalued, white dots apparently on the screen of an I pad mini, so £10 sir! There were no white dots on it when I powered it up to delete the contents. I phone 6, £35 on line but guess what, There’s a fault, it will not power up. That’s interesting, as it did when I deleted the contents. That will be just £5.00 sir! So have requested the phone back, but I realise that if it’s going to come back, I wonder if it gets a revisit to the test bench for some voltage up “it’s input socket”.....just to help it on it’s way and ensure it never works again! Please don’t cut and paste a reply that reads the same as all the replies, I know the rules of the game now.... “in order to make money, get the interest , get the product in, and be sure that it’s got a fault....Simples.””

Good morning Ivor, Thank you for your review. I have checked your order and can see our technicians confirmed a defective screen due to white mark(s) in the display which is usually only visible on a white background within the iPad mini 2. These tend to appear as little white stars within the LCD, it is where the pixel has died and causes it to glow brighter than the rest of them. Due to the cost of a LCD replacement we were unable to offer you the original valuation price. I can see you have accepted this and it has now been paid. I can also see that your iPad Air was paid in full with no amendments. The iPhone 6 was flagged for a no power on fault. Our technicians put all devices on charge for up to 3 hours. If the device does not power on after this time frame it is classed as a no power on fault. Due to the age of the model issues like this can occur if the device has had excessive. We can only grade devices as they are received and in your case, the device does not power on. This has been rejected and will be dispatched back to you within 5 working days. If you would like to discuss this further, please contact a member of our customer service team on 0345 872 3000 or alternatively you can email customerservices@mazumamobile.com Kind regards Mazuma Mobile.

“Sent my samsung galaxy s8+ was told i would get £110 phone was sent in original packaging and in excellent condition. When they recieved the phone i was told it had level 2 screen burn so thry would offer £40 which if course i rejected. 24hours later i get a phone call saying they would offer a £30 travel pack and £60 for the phone. Which i have rejected again. Now hoping they send the phone back within 7 days in the same condition sent. Going through the reviews it seems alot of customers have had the same thing happen with the same problem diagnosed on their phone.”

Good morning Amy, Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the decision made regarding your device. Screen burn appears within the LCD layer of the device (this is the pixel layer underneath the glass on the front). This can come in two different forms and imprint or a glow. The most common imprint we tend to see if of the keyboard as this is the most common function used on a mobile phone. It can also come in the form of a red glow which appears around the edges of the screen. Screen burn is where the pixels create a ghost like imprint that remains even after the on-screen content has changed or moved. This is mainly visible against a white background. This can present itself in 3 different levels. This will be dispatched within 7 working days and you will receive an email update once dispatched. If you would like to discuss this further, please contact a member of our customer service team on 0345 872 3000 or alternatively you can email customerservices@mazumamobile.com

“No stars 18/08/2020 Wish I had read the reviews first. Quoted £140 for a Samsung Galaxy S9 64GB 2 years old in immaculate condition. I kept it in D30 Gear4 drop tested case with a screen protector. I received a revised offer of £40 on the 17/08/2020 due to "level 2 screen burn" mainly visible on white screen, surprise surprise. I rejected this offer and was contacted via a phone call the day after and offered £70. Which I also rejected. I now have to wait 7 working days for my phone to hopefully come back in the same condition I sent it.”

Good afternoon Andrew, Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the decision made regarding your device. Screen burn appears within the OLED layer of the device (this is the pixel layer underneath the glass on the front). This can come in two different forms and imprint or a glow. The most common imprint we tend to see if of the keyboard as this is the most common function used on a mobile phone. It can also come in the form of a red glow which appears around the edges of the screen. Screen burn is where the pixels create a ghost like imprint that remains even after the on-screen content has changed or moved. This is mainly visible against a white background. This can present itself in 3 different levels. You can read about screenburn online as this is a very common defect within Samsung devices due to the OLED screens they use, Please note a case would not have prevented the device from screen burn as this is something the device does itself.

Screen burn is where the pixels create a ghost like imprint that remains even after the on-screen content has changed or moved. This is mainly visible against a white background. This can present itself in 3 different levels. Every device that we receive is thoroughly checked by our technicians, if it doesn't meet our grading criteria the price, we can offer you a lower price. Unfortunately, your device was found to have a faulty camera due to black marks within the camera lens. These tend to appear as faint black ink marks when holding the camera against a white background. They appear prominent on a white background than they do against a colourful background. In order for us to allow the team more space to work, all packaging is separated from devices upon receipt. If for any reason a customer’s device is to be returned, our team will try their best to return original packaging/accessories where possible. If they are unable to do so, we do ensure that all devices are packaged and fully protected for transit before they leave. When a pack is ordered from ourselves, we do provide the external packaging. IT does state within the packaging instructions that it's down to yourself to provide the internal packaging and that we do not recommend sending original packaging but ensure that it is protected for transit.

“I sent my Samsung Galaxy S8 to Mazuma after being quoted 95. They have emailed me today saying the price has been reduced to 25 because of screen burn. There was no screen burn when I sent the phone to them.”

“Perfect phone sent, even verified by carphone warehouse as perfect condition. Quoted 140 then offered 40 due to apparent screen burn. Asked for proof this funny enough was stalled at coming through. I asked for a photo with my imei showing on the screen and funny enough I only got a pic of a random phone with no imei proving it was mine. When questioned all they said was well we’ve sent a second photo and no idea why that email hadn’t arrived. Total liars, do not use them. Shocking staff with no morals.”

“Phone sent away in perfect condition. Kept in case with screen protector as long as I’ve had it. Got an email saying there was an issue with the screen and reduced the price to £5. Absolute jokers. Avoid at all costs.”

“BEWARE do not use... Sent my iPhone 7plus quoted price £160, picked up by DPD next day received an email saying cracked screen price reduced to £55 (my phone was not cracked and was in a very good condition) then had someone phone me saying they can offer £80 for it.. I asked for pictures of this cracked screen and got sent a corner of a cracked screen, asked for the phone to be returned and it is definitely not the condition it was sent in.. I am literally gobsmacked and how this company can get away with this.. I’m reporting to trading standards.. shame on you Mazuma Mobile”

Good morning, Thank you for your review. We are sorry you did not have a positive experience with us. Once the devices enter the warehouse they are checked by our technicians and this is where the crack would have flagged up. A crack could be anything from a 1mm crack to the entire screen shattered, however it would result in the touchscreen needing to be replaced which is why you received a revised offer. A second technician checks every phone again, whether you have accepted or rejected, in order to see if we can offer anymore money for your device. In your case we were able to, which is why you received a second offer. Within our warehouse the floors and workbenches are covered in rubber matting and no tools are used on devices. As well as this once the devices are removed from the packaging it is delivered in, it is wrapped in bubble wrap to be safely moved around the warehouse. The way the phone is protected within our warehouse, it is highly unlikely that the device would have been cracked whilst with us.

“Wish I'd read these reviews before sending my phone off. Less than 2 years old, always kept in a case with screen protector on and hardly used. Immaculate, like new condition yet apparently has screen burn...seems to be an awful lot of phones out there with screen burn and apparently most of them get sent to Mazuma!!! Original offer £140, revised offer £40, needless to say it was rejected! Absolute bunch of chancers...I'd better get my phone back in the same immaculate condition it was sent in (and in the original box). If you're thinking of sending your phone in, take a look at all the reviews and don't bother!”

“Sent Samsung S9 64gb in. Been in a quadlock case and tempered glass screen protector since day 1 of owning. Dealt with IT and Phones for military and other industries. Mazuma claim "screen burn"...i claim BS...biggest cop out of an excuse to pay out if ive ever heard of it. Mazuma, have you heard of offering services by deception? This is you, you offer a service and deceive the public...cant wait to see a class action against yourselves in future for it. Absolute waste of time dealing with you guys, should of used another firm to begin with.”
