Sell, trade in or recycle your mobile phone for cash

The process is quite an easy 3 step process like they say. On going to the www.PhoneRecycleBank.com website for the first time you might find it looks fairly similar to some of the other top mobile phone recycling sites. This I believe is because they are using the same sort of template which is specifically made for these types of sites. You can see how to use the site and there is a 3 step process displayed showing what the basics are to using them. All you have to do to get started is to search for the make and model of mobile phone you are selling. You can either type the phones model into the search field shown or search by selecting a make and then search for your model in the list. However it’s probably best to just search for your model this way as an extensive list of pages will be shown and you’ll be scrolling forever.

Once you have found your phone click on it to choose whether it’s a working or non-working phone. You will be shown a price for each. Click on if it’s working or non-working. You will then need to enter the phones IMEI number. (Dial *#06# or look on the back of phone inside, under battery) The next page that then displays will show the phone you are selling and give you a choice of how you want to be paid and choice of postage method.

Currently www.PhoneRecycleBank.com only pay by Cheque by post for your mobile and offer 3 different ways to send in your mobile to them. There is the Freepost option where they will send you a Freepost envelope or you can print off a Label and post it yourself and earn yourself an additional £1.00 on top of the already offered price! And there is the Courier service that costs £8.00. (Unless you are selling 10 or more phones). Which is deducted from the price you get for your mobile. As you click on each option the price will change and be shown as “We’ll pay you £x.xx in 7 days time”.

  1. Freepost Bag – They send you the freepost envelope.
  2. Print Label (+£1) – Print out a label and post it yourself.
  3. Courier Collection (-£8) – They pick up the phone.

If you have 10 or more phones or any questions or regards about anything contact Phone Recycle Bank on 0800 0151567 to arrange a free courier or have someone walk you through it.

Going with the Print Label option, clicking continue once you are happy you’ll need to proceed with the simple on site registration process giving your name, address and telephone number and agreeing to the data protection policy and their terms & conditions. The next page will be your confirmation page displaying your Order Reference, Payment and Shipment Method and Total payment amount etc. As I chose the print label option it explains “You have selected to post the your handset back yourself. Please include your order number on the package when posting the handset back” and the address to send it to being;
Freepost RRXG-LYRT-BUBA
