Ordered a handset and provided full payment. I then waited for delivery. Nothing happened after 4 days, so I reached out to them via email to discover there would be a "slight delay" to the order. After a week I requested they complete delivery or provide a refund. Neither happened but I did get a reply stating imminent delivery. Nothing happened so I attempted to call multiple times but nobody answered any calls and I was given the choice to leave a message or email "sales". The feedback was so sparse that I started to fear a scam was taking place, therefore I sent a strong email containing threats of further action. Only after this did I get notified of shipment. The phone was delivered the following day but the colour was not as per order. After a further email, I was offered a small partial refund or I could return the phone for exchange or full refund. I opted for the partial refund. I guess you could say that I got there in the end More positively the phone supplied is in perfect working order and condition, with only the colour being not as expected The company could dramatically improve by changing in small ways...provide a usable method of contacting them by phone, call back in a timely manner upon leaving a voicemail requesting this, provide upfront information on delays to deliver orders AND provide a viable reason and at the very least, provide honest answers to enquiries. An example would be instead of stating "there will be a slight delay to your order" provide realistic info such as "there has been a mix up and the phone you ordered is not available, however we have one of a different colour for you to consider" (this is just an example and may not represent the true reason for my delay). I am sure this could be an good company with these minor changes to customer relations

The phone finally arrived after 15 days and several exchanges of emails from the date of buying it. I was left to believe that I'd bought a phone that didn't exist, and there wasn't any voluntary communication of assurance, plus the only contact I could get was via email as the phone was never answered. It's gong to be a present and so I haven't turned it on yet, but the phone does looks good and so hopefully all the anxiety will be worth it.

I previously gave quite a positive review but since the delivery of the phone of which was fine But since then any chance of contacting them is a waste of time I’ve sent 3 emails and messages not one single reply I received an email saying don’t forget to claim your free EarPods well I have tried but to no avail not one response So how one would communicate to get any warranty work I doubt if you will ever get a response So they advertise 18 months warranty but if they don’t answer your guarantee is useless So my opinion is leave these people alone as communication is impossible Kind regards Alva Skitt

I selected and paid for an iPhone 13 in pristine condition, which according to the website should have no scratches on the screen, this was not the case with this phone. I have sent two emails outlining this issue without a reply. I have now decided to return it for a refund.

I ordered an "Excellent" Condition Samsung S21, the phone arrived a few days after I placed the order, good so far. I opened the packaging and was disappointed that the screen and casing were scratched, more than I would expect for an "Excellent" condition the phone is "Good" condition as best. It is disappointing.

Delivery stated as 2-3 working days. Took over two weeks. Impossible to speak to anyone on the phone and emails take 2 days to respond. Categorically would not recommend or use again. Despite that the phone was exactly as described hence 2 stars rather than 1 but I’m really hoping I don’t have to claim on the warranty as I can’t begin to imagine how painful that would be.

Company seems to bribe customers into giving them 5 star reviews in exchange for free gifts and money, yet they never send the items they have promised. Just bribery to get positive feedback.

I was conned into trying to sell my phone to this outfit by claims that they offer the best trade in price available. According to the criteria on the website my iphone 8 was worth £85. Once it got to them and despite it being in pristine condition having had a new screen and screen protector in the past 3 months, it was revalued by their ‘technicians’ as being worth £20. It doesn’t have a mark anywhere on it! Having rejected their derisory offer they then charged me for the return postage. Shan’t be going near them again.
