Would highly recommend we buy tek to anyone…just sold an iPhone 13 that was smashed on the back but they still gave me what they offered before I sent the phone to them which was more than double what any other company was offering! Will definitely be using them again in the future plus everything was so quick and easy and money was in the bank within an hour off them emailing me to say testing was complete! Thanks again We Buy Tek

Quick and easy

Quick and easy

They send out a pack free of charge. Offered a lower price than initially given but it was fair, given the phone was completely on its last legs. Got the money same day.

Avoid. Misleading

I used their valuation tool and selected the lowest condition (“faulty”) just to be safe, even though the phone worked perfectly, and had scratches that did not affect screen viewing. They offered £250 online, but after receiving it, dropped it to £150. Misleading—avoid.

Hi,
Thank you for your review and sorry to hear that things didn’t go as expected. We completely understand how annoying it can be when your phone is valued lower than anticipated.

We’d love the chance to make this right, so please feel free to get in touch.

Waste of my time

Waste of my time. I accepted a quote for a broken (worst option available) iPhone 11, only for them to try and knock me down because it was broken when they assessed it.

Reported problems that didn't exist but was trapped by return costs

Phone was in great cosmetic condition but had low battery of 61%. I selected the faulty condition to cover for this. I sent the phone in the We Tek supplied packaging. On checking the phone suddenly there were issues that just didn't exist such as cracked camera lens, LCD-Screen Discolouration which categorically are not true. Even if they were true, I selected faulty as the sales condition. Stupidly I forgot to take a picture of the phone before sending so can't dispute this and the cost to decline and return was £10, so I just had to accept the offer for £20 less for some issues that didn't exist when I sent the phone. I felt trapped, especially with the cost to return. Very disappointed and will not use them again. Don't trust them.

Fantastic service, highly recommended

Fantastic service. Greta price honoured and paid upon inspection. Unlike other buyers of phones there was no price chips after viewing the phone. Very pleased.
They sent me packaging to put phone in and I returned it on Thursday. Money in our account the next day lunch time. Outstanding and highly recommended

Original price considerably reduced

I was given an offer of £57 by We Buy Tek through a comparison website for a broken phone. My phone met the definition of a broken phone, and that was the most damaged that could be recorded. It was easy to return the phone. I then had an email offering £11.40 because the phone didn't switch on - only when I challenged did I then get an offer of £26 when they charged the phone. The amount I received was then £11.40 despite accepting the new offer on the link. I have complained and I am quite sure that they will redress this, but it isn't very good.

Fair play

Fair play, the quoted price for my faulty iPhone 13 Pro was really high and was worried they wouldn’t pay it. Nonetheless speedy payment in full I was really skeptical honestly!

Fantastic company - best trade in price even though I marked the phone as 'faulty', it worked perfectly but has deep scratches to the screen. Trade in pack received within 2 days, and payment received within 24 hours of phone being sent.
