Data Risks and Precautions -
Important
Please remember that by sending
your device to us, you agree to release us from all and any claims, losses or
damages with respect to the device, any data stored or contained therein or on
any media used in conjunction with the device (whether in the form of personal
details, SMS, photos, games, songs or other data ("Data")). We will wipe all devices of data and will not be able to recover any data.
Although in our experience the
risk of Data left on your device being accessed by us or by any third party to
whom we subsequently sell the device are very low, we draw to your attention
the following points which will help you decide whether to accept the risk of
selling us a device which may contain accessible Data.
If your device is functional,
we strongly advise that you delete all personal data from the device prior to
sending it to us.
If your device is
non-functional and has a "remote wipe" function, then we strongly
advise that you attempt wiping the device prior to sending it to us.
If your non-functional device
cannot be data wiped but has a PIN lock (a password or combination which needs
to be entered to access the phone when switched on) then this will block third
party access and mean that anyone repairing the device will be required to
return the phone to its factory settings, in the process wiping the Data held
on the device.
Please note it may not be possible to delete Data directly from a non-functioning device. If you send us a non-functioning device you are therefore accepting the risk that it may still contain Data which may be accessible to any person who repairs the phone. This may include third parties to whom we have sold the device for spare parts.
Sim Card removal – Important
You are responsible for
cancelling any active contract linked to each device. We are not responsible
for any call costs arising before, or after, receipt of your device, or arising
from any other circumstances whatsoever.
Please ensure you remove your
SIM card before sending us your device. You shall
continue to be responsible for such charges. Any SIM cards received by us are
non-returnable.
Lost or Stolen Mobile Phones and Devices
Selling a mobile phone or
device which you do not own may amount to a criminal offense. We do not accept devices that has been reported lost or stolen.
Pricing

When your order has been
placed, the prices quoted are guaranteed for 14 days from the 'Order Approved'

Phones and devices must be
packaged in accordance with our packaging instructions to ensure safe and
