“Extortionists”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 16/09/2016

I just an email after having sent in my phone which reads as follows:

"One or more items in your sale did not meet our conditions. We have tested your device(s) and we have had to amend your sale."

Notice they do not say what "did not meet conditions". My phone was in perfect working order and very well looked after in a case from day 1. Basically they just dropped the price they were willing to pay by £40 and left me with no option but to accept it because they did not want to stand by the price they gave me fixed for 10 days. I sent in the phone within the 10 days but the market price has now dropped so it's not worth my while to get it back only to get the same price elsewhere.

Its nothing more than extortion and I advise you to avoid the company at all costs. There are more reliable companies out there and I could have got a better price then I have now and an honest appraisal of my phone. I still don't know how long it will take to get paid so I'll post another review if that becomes a problem as well, as some others have had.

Edit: Having looked at some other review sites, this is their common practice. They knock practically 35% off the price almost every time and hope that people accept it, if they don't they apparently increase the price they are willing to pay. I'll definitely be looking into this company more closely.
