Comparison Review of Earthmobile and Love2Recycle.
Earthmobile and Love2Recycle are two UK Mobile Phone Recycling sites that have been recycling mobile phones online for about the past year and more. They are not as well known as some of the other mobile phone recycling sites such as Mazuma Mobile, Fonebank, Envirofone or Mopay . But they both provide the same free service for you to use to sell and recycle your old mobile phone. Be it for cash or just to recycle and help the environment.
But if you had to choose from either Love2Recycle or Earthmobile which one would you choose? At the end of the day it depends on how much money you are happy to accept for your mobile and how you prefer to get paid. So which one pays the most and what methods are there?
Payment Methods
In terms of difference unlike other mobile phone recyclers we have compared, when it comes to payment, Love2Recycle or Earthmobile are both the same and pay by Cheque. Both claim to send the Cheque within 5 days of getting and checking your mobile phone. They both should email you first to offer you a different amount if it’s not worth the amount quoted on site for whatever reason. It goes under the common sense guide lines for every mobile you recycle.
Most Money Offered
Normally we would compare which one is paying the most using the Mobile Phone Recycling Price Comparison Checker but Love2Recycle are not currently in the list. So a manual check on their site is needed. Although you can still use the Price Comparison Tool to get the price offered for your make and model of mobile phone. Anyway you can do a number of checks on mobile phones and you’ll see that Love2Recycle are paying more for mobile phones compared to Earthmobile. We done checks on a Nokia 6230i, a Sony Ericsson K800i, a Samsung U600 and a Apple iPhone 3G 16GB. Every time Love2Recycle were paying more compared to Earthmobile.
Website Effort
For ease of use and usability full marks have to go to Earthmobile on this occasion. Although the Love2Recycle website is a lot simpler of a site and is still just as easy to use and navigate there is more to the Earthmobile website. There are more pages on Earthmobile as a company and what they do other than just basic terms and conditions. Earthmobile predominantly display their environmental policy and WEEE directive and Waste license on their site. As well as pages on why and how to recycle mobile phones and more. So for effort full marks to Earthmobile. But Love2Recycle do have a “Reminder” feature. To remind you when to recycle your mobile.
Community Side
It would appear that Earthmobile work more with Charities, Schools, Companies and the local community than Love2Recycle do. There just isn’t much on the Love2Recycle site to suggest they are doing anything in the community. They are a professional organisation and do work under governmental legislation to purchase and recycle peoples phones but Earthmobile seem to work closer with and have more connections to the community.
Speed of Service
As both companies pay in the same way by Cheque the waiting time to receive your Cheque is within 5 days after either mobile recycler receives and checks your mobile. There are reports that people have been paid within 5 days of sending in their mobiles to both companies if you search online but its always assumed you’ll get your payment within 5 days. Of course despite a Cheque payment being very secure you’ll have to pay it into your bank and wait for it to clear.
Conclusion
This was quite an easy comparison to do really. Both sites are somewhat similar. After comparing and having to make a decision I know who I would choose to sell my mobile with to get the most money. But you can make your own mind up.
