While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience.

Really impressed so far with Fonez.ie. After having problems with other refurbishing companies I was so surprised that everything has been so smooth sailing with this company. Highly recommend!

Brilliant service!

This is my second phone I’ve bought from Fonez, and I would highly recommend them. The phone arrived faster than expected, and I opted for a new battery, so it’s at 100% capacity—which is excellent for a second-hand iPhone. Very happy with my purchase. The phone is in excellent condition, and a lot of people have told me that it looks like a brand new phone!

First time ordering from Fonez

First time ordering from Fonez, and I can't fault them at all. The phone came in perfect condition (actually better than what I had expected tbh). Ordered a screen protector also and it came already installed on the phone for me! Delivery took about 3 working days also. Really good service and product (and great price on the black friday deal) 😄
