fast service
First time dealing with
Great service and great prices, they paid within 1 week of receiving the phone. Will do business with again!
A tad confusing
All was well and swift, however, found it strange that I was offered a recipient paid option for posting yet had to pay $10 for postage... So really $25 from the phone ended up being $15.
I’d definitely recommend
Easy process, was a little unsure at first but trustpilot reviews put my mind at ease.
Really happy with the price Fonebank paid for my iPhone 7plus which was in good condition. Next time I sell I will be donating some of my returned funds to redcross. Thank you for making it easy to sell online.

Quick seamless and free postage
Quick seamless and free postage. Turnaround took a few days upon delivery but was somewhat fairly priced
easy to use website
easy to use website. details provided were clear and although it took 2 weeks to receive a reply, the email advised me of the sale and the money was sent to my account. Perfect. Thankyou Fonebank.
Paid top price
I was impressed that Fonebank offered the best return for my old Apple products. The process was easy to follow. My only hiccup was that it took longer than Fonebank claimed to examine and approve my sale. An email to enquire what the delay was resulted in an apology and immediate processing. No issues getting the money to my account quickly once processed. I would use Fonebank again.
Excellent service
Excellent service. They offered a great trade in price. Easy to deal with.
Easy process
Easy process, just process the order and ship the phone. A few weeks later some money is in your account!
Great to deal with
Great to deal with. They even added my phone model immediately after I emailed to ask about it not being listed. Highly recommended and easy/no fuss transaction.
