Mobile Phone Xchange

star rating

( based on 51 user review(s) )(Add A Review)

Don't keep a collection of old phones in a drawer when you can make quick cash by selling them online! With Mobile Phone Xchange, it's fast, easy and worthwhile to sell your old mobile. Just value your old phone, send it in, and receive your money in three days. Mobile Phone Xchange gives you a choice of six payment methods, and pays top prices for old mobiles.

More than two million mobile phones are replaced with upgraded models every year in the UK, and the majority of these end up in a drawer. Mobile Phone Xchange aims to help the environment, and underprivileged people, by rescuing these phones, refurbishing them, and sending them to developing countries where people can't afford to buy a new mobile, but need instant communications to improve their lives and help their businesses.

Recycling your old handsets is good for all concerned. You get a nice chunk of change and recoup some of the costs of your mobile, your phone gets a new lease on life and helps to improve the lives of others, and the environment is protected, because it's disposed of safely even if it can't be refurbished.

    this has to be the worse buyer for mobile phones,sold it to them to recycle bearing in mind it was two weeks old!! came back offered another price said it was down to wear & tear,what from a nearly brand new phone,this is a mobile recycling organasition,you are selling unwanted mobile phones not new phones,just another way of conning you to reduce the price so they get it for next to nothing,then tell you you cant have it back as it was already been recycled!!! when you have a 3 day period to accept or not!!!this is not acceptable wont be reccomending to anyone,very bad customer services.

    After using a different company previously and getting ripped off I was nervous about sending an expensive phone in the post to Mobile Phone Xchange, I need not have worried as I received acknowledment within a few days and got paid the full price that I expected without any delay. Excellent service from Mobile Xchange (beware of some of the other companies who when they receive your phone then say that it's damaged or not working and then pay a significantly reduced amount)

    Website is easy to use and navigate. Very competitive price quoted for my phone. The main downside is speed. The freepost envelope took a week to arrive (yes you can post the phone off straight away yourself, but I also sent a phone to Envirofone and their freepost envelope arrived the next day.) it also took several days for the phone to be received, tested and payment made. I would use the service again but would probably use my own envelope.

    Very easy to use, and I like the fact you can send out a prepaid envelope to put your phone(s) in. One further comment would be that I would have used you for my other old mobiles but not as competive sale value.

    Disappointed. They made excuses saying that the screen was scratched and would have to be replaced which would cost them more money despite they were going to third world countries to help out. Instead of £28 they gave me £4. What a rip off!! Would give them 0 stars if I could but this thing doesn't allow it!!

    These reviews are wrong they will not pay any where near the amount they first quote they will make up faults that arent there like a scratched screen (mine had a screen cover from day one and it was still fitted).the also said the phone was pin locked it was not you have to threaten legal action to get your phone back.keep away!!!!

Why Should You Recycle Your Phone?

Old mobile phones should be recycled

Recycling your old phone means you can gain return on it. Materials that are potentially hazardous to the environment are not left to decompose and pollute, but instead can be broken up and find new life. Saving energy, chemicals and waste by lessening extraction and refinement for new products, and 100% of materials in old phones can be used in new goods. This helps to keep costs down to the manufacturer and the consumer, creating a cycle of best practice.

A Bit About Us

Our easy to use site helps us to provide you the great service you need in finding the best deal for your phone. By comparing all the registered recycling companies we use, we save you time and help you gain money for your handset. We check prices every day to ensure the rate you find is up to date. We accept a wide variety of mobile phone brands and models and provide information on the recyclers we use. Simply type your mobile name in to the search bar and hit compare to find a great rate.

Mobile Recycling Advice

Most of the recyclers featured on this site accept no liability for lost or damaged items. Thus we highly recommend you to get a free 'certificate of posting' from any UK Post Office. This will provide you with compensation up to £39 for lost or damaged items. Above this amount, it is up to you to insure your item's.

We are in no way responsible for the conduct of the merchants that are compared on this site and should any issues arise with any of them, the recyclers should be contacted directly. Please feel free to leave a rating and review on our site, detailing the experience you had so that others will be made aware of your experience when using our site.
