SECTION 1 - SELLING A DEVICE TO US
Your device
Each device sold by you should match the make and model stated when registering your order and meet the following conditions:
1. The device must turn on and off.
2. The device must be fully functional and complete.
3. The battery must be included.
4. The device must not be crushed or liquid-damaged.
5. The device must be original and meet the manufacturer's original specifications.
Grading phone's/device's
No device is ever the same so grading does vary from model to model, depending on the damage and condition.
To receive the full indicative value for your mobile phone/device, it must power-up (turn on) and be in full working condition (meaning that all features must be in good working order) and must not have significant damage (although may have some mild cosmetic damage i.e. general minor wear and tear).
By way of example only, damage classed as significant includes broken or cracked LCD screens; camera function not working or camera damage; buttons missing from the mobile phone/device or other keypad damage; deep scratches or dents; snapped hinges; charger port not working; microphone damage; earpiece damage; cracked backs; missing parts; no power on; touch screen faults; cracked or damaged screens; or software which is faulty or defective. Mobile phones/devices must have batteries enclosed within the mobile phone/device casing; not be barred; PIN locked or water damaged; appear in our online guide; be of UK specification; and not be reported lost or stolen. The list is not exhaustive. When we inspect or test your mobile phone/device, we will not pay as much as the original, indicative value if we find that your mobile phone/device does not comply with all these conditions.
Mobile phones/devices not listed on our website will be automatically recycled where possible, subject to these Terms. Such mobile phones/devices cannot be returned under any circumstances. Please ensure you are happy to send such mobile phones/devices to us for recycling only. You will not receive any payment for such mobile phones/devices. We accept the return of mobile phone/device boxes, battery chargers and mobile phone/device accessories but they do not increase mobile phone/device value and will not be returned if requested.
Do not include more than two mobile phones/devices in one package. If you have registered as sending more than two mobile phones/devices you will be issued with the required amount of packages. Please use the packaging and the label in your sales pack, if you require an additional sales pack please call customer services on 0333 321 3441.
Grading for gadgets is more specific and items should be in good condition to receive a payment. In some instances, depending on item type, we won't offer a reduction and we will simply be unable to make a payment for it.
Other damage - for ad hoc damage and anything which affects our ability to refurbish or recycle your order there will be a reduction in price to reflect this damage. In these cases Envirofone.com will have the final decision on all device values.
By submitting an order through our site you warrant that the device(s) comply with these terms.
If you have a PIN or Password on any of your items you should remove this before sending.
Please remove any Network, eSIM, Apple iCloud, Google or Brand specific accounts, as well as your Password.
Pricing
Prices offered on our website are subject to change at any time without notice. Mobile phone/device values may change from day to day which means that if you check the value of your mobile phone/device on any given day but do not place a sales order, you may be given a different value for the same mobile phone/device at a later time. This does not affect any other provisions in these terms and conditions.
Any special offers on mobile phone/device values are subject to particular terms which we may impose and may be varied or withdrawn at any time and without notice. Values are shown and payments are made in pounds sterling. Each mobile phone/device is processed separately even if included in a multiple mobile phone/device sales order.
When your order has been placed, the prices quoted are guaranteed for 14 days. If your phone/device is received after 14 days from the order placed date the updated, current prices will apply.
Envirofone.com will have the final decision on all device values.
Testing for incorrect information
We test each mobile phone/device for compliance with our terms and conditions. We also check that the mobile phone/device is not red flagged (see below) according to CheckMEND details. Tests are carried out prior to and are the conditions for, payment. We may stipulate additional tests as we reasonably determine.
As mobile phones/devices can look similar, customers sometimes incorrectly identify them. If we find that the model you send is not as referred to in your sales order, we will email a value for the actual mobile phone/device, confirming the model.
We also test the device for the network it is locked to. In some cases your device will receive a reduction if you have selected the incorrect network referred in your sales order.
You can choose to continue the sale for the revised value or decline it. If you decline it, we will return the mobile phone/device. The sale will not progress and our contract with you will terminate. To accept or decline a revised value, log on to your account where you will be given the revised value and be asked to either proceed or decline the revised value. If you do not respond within 3 (three) days, starting on the day on which we email the revised value, we will automatically process your sale after that time, using the new price. If you have queries about how models are identified, contact customer services (details below).
Testing for damage
Where possible, we offer value for a damaged mobile phone/device but we are not obliged to do so nor purchase any damaged mobile phone/device.
If we determine your mobile phone/device is damaged, we may, at our discretion, pay for the damaged mobile phone/device but the value will be as indicated on our website. We will value the damaged mobile phone/device to take account of the damage and send a revised value by email.
In some cases, values will be zero if mobile phones/devices are beyond economical repair or have multiple faults (e.g. water damage and cracked LCD screen).
A revised value will only be given once the mobile phone/device has been tested or inspected. You can decide whether to continue with the revised value sale or whether to decline it in which case, we will return your mobile phone/device within 14 days, the sale will not continue and our contract with you will terminate.
To accept or decline a revised value, log on to your account where you will be given the revised value and asked to either proceed with the sale or decline the revised value. If you do not respond within 3 (three) days, starting on the day on which we email the revised value, we will automatically process your mobile phone/device sale at the revised value, after that time your device will not be returned.
All devices which are returned will have been securely data wiped, This will include removal of operating systems for Macbooks and Laptops.
Mobile phones/devices in pieces or parts or mobile phones/devices which have no value will not be returned and we will recycle them.
Red Flagged mobile phones/devices
We will check the status of all mobile phones/devices received against the National CheckMEND database (using the unique IMEI number).
If your mobile phone/device is found to have a red flag by CheckMEND, it must be quarantined for 28 days whilst its status is reviewed. The mobile phone/device will have a red flag if it has been registered as lost, stolen or barred/blocked on the CheckMEND database.
If you are advised that your mobile phone/device has a red flag against it you will need to contact CheckMEND in order to review the status of your mobile phone/device. You will be advised of the procedure required by email from us. The purpose of the quarantine period is to allow the rightful owner the opportunity to have the red flag removed in order that the mobile phone/device can be processed appropriately.
If, during the quarantine period the red flag is removed, your mobile phone/device will be processed and paid for in accordance with these terms and conditions and will not be returned.
However, if after the quarantine period has expired the red flag has not been removed then we are required by law to dispose of it and you will not receive any payment. UK legislation states that we cannot under any circumstances return the mobile phone/device during this 28 day period unless the red flag has been removed.
If we become aware of any issues you will be required to co-operate with the authorities and we reserve the right to withhold or cancel the payment.
“Activation Locked” devices
If we receive a device with the “Activation Lock” still activated and you do not respond within 3 (three) days, starting on the day on which we email you the “Activation Lock” notification, we will revise the price to 10% of the full price. You can choose to accept the revised value or decline it. If you decline, we will return the device, the sale will not progress and our agreement will terminate. To accept or decline a revised value, log on to “my account”.
Payments
When we receive your order, we will check that it is complete, and that it meets our terms and conditions. Providing it does, we will send payment by your chosen method within 5 working days.
Under no circumstances will payment be dispatched before we receive and process your mobile phone/device.
If you have selected same day (faster) payment, we will pay by faster payment transfer directly into your account on the same day we process your device, subject to your device(s) being processed before 1pm on a working day and there being no amendment to your original valuation (in which case we will contact you outlining your further options).
If your payment date falls on a weekend or public holiday payment will be made on the next working day. If your bank account does not accept faster payments, a BACs payment will be automatically made.
Payment is in accordance with the method you select in the sales order process. The possible payment methods are cheque, BACS payment or EnviroCash. Once you select a method for a particular sales order, you may choose any alternative payment option up until the process payment date. Once the payment has been processed it is no longer changeable.
Payment processing depends on third parties which we do not control. For payment by retail vouchers or cheque, this involves a postal service and for BACS payments, a bank. We will not be liable for delay in your receipt of payment as a result of third party action or inaction.
If you have selected EnviroCash, we credit your online Envirofone account on the same day we process your device, subject to your device(s) being processed before 1pm on a working day and there being no amendment to your original valuation (in which case we will contact you outlining your further options).

The packs which we provide for orders are standard priority return packs.
You must take the pack to the Post Office and hand it in at a counter where you will receive a 13 digit tracking number and receipt of postage. On information on how to make a claim please see the Royal Mail website.
If your mobile phone/device is lost in the post we will advise you how you might claim against the Royal Mail but we cannot guarantee this to be successful.
If we receive a damaged package, the package and mobile phone/device (if we received it) will be returned to you so that you may claim for the loss directly from Royal Mail if you wish.

The packaging we provide you can carry a maximum of 2 mobile phones. The package must be taken to the Post Office or Post Office counter. We recommend that you wrap the phone(s) in a thin layer of cushioning. If you choose to use your own packaging, you must pack the mobile phone/device in a strong rigid container e.g. a cardboard box, encased in a material which prevents movement in transit e.g bubblewrap. Regardless of whether you are sending your mobile phone in one of our freepost packages or via our free Tracked 24, Royal Mail regulations state that you must: pack the phone in a strong, rigid package, ensure that it cannot move or be turned on during transit.
The package must be sent via Royal Mail tracked or if you are sending high value items we recommend sending via Royal Mail Tracked 24 (at your own cost).

The tracking number insures your phone for up to £150, plus you can track your package online at www.royalmail.com. Please note: the pack will be tracked online to our local delivery office. It will then appear as “delivered” on the Royal Mail system, but this means delivered to our local delivery office.

How to Claim on your warranty
Please go to the Return My Item section of our website and follow the online process to download your returns label via the Royal Mail or DPD.
You must adhere to the instructions below when you return your device:
- Devices must be packaged sufficiently for transit and if the appropriate packing is not used then you would be held responsible for any damage in transit etc.
- Ensure that the label is securely fastened to the parcel and that the barcode is not obscured by tape. The barcode is crucial in getting the goods back.
- There is a 14-day claim period, customers must contact Envirofone within this period with a query in order for this to be processed.
- Customers will be given a receipt from the shop when the goods are dropped off, therefore this must keep as proof of dispatch.
- The maximum amount that can be claimed for any device is £150. If your device is high value we would recommend sending this via special delivery.
A confirmation email will be sent to you when received. Once it has been received, and verified it is covered by this warranty your phone/device will be repaired or replaced and shipped to you within 5 working days of receipt, subject to Returns Policy. If the fault or damage is not covered by this warranty we shall contact you and make arrangements to return the phone/device to you. We reserve the right to charge you for the carriage if the fault or damage is not covered by warranty.
Price of products and delivery charges
The prices of the products will be as quoted on our site.
Prices for our products may change, but changes will not affect any order which we have confirmed with a Dispatch Confirmation.
The price of the products includes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the products in full before the change in VAT takes effect.
The price of the products does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as quoted on our site from time to time.
It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the products on our site may be incorrectly priced.
If we discover an incorrect price we will inform you and will give you the option of continuing with your order on the basis of the correct information or cancelling the order. We will not process your order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you, we will treat the order as cancelled and notify you in writing.
Please note that if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing, we do not have to provide the products to you at the incorrect (lower) price.
SIM ONLY
A SIM ONLY contract is a type of contract that doesn't include getting a free phone/device. The SIM will include a monthly allowance of minutes, texts and data with other network benefits included if these are highlighted in the contract.
Once the SIM is activated it's permanently locked to that network, though not locked to a particular type of phone/device .
Activation
Once the SIM ONLY card is received, it must be activated through the activation portal.
Purchasing options
The option will be provided to purchase a SIM ONLY card without having to purchase a phone or tablet.
The option is provided to choose the desired network, which will be added to the contract.
Many of the smaller networks are running on the main networks infrastructure. A few examples of these are GiffGaff run on the O2 network, FreedomPop run on the Three network and Plusnet run on the EE network.
With all networks a 14 day cooling off period is present, providing the option to cancel within the first 14 days.
Credit checks
To sign up for a SIM ONLY 12 month contract, a credit check must be passed.
For pay monthly, rolling contracts, the credit check is lighter than a 12 month contract.
From time to time, there are networks within our comparison tables that won't need to undertake a credit check. These can be found in our comparison tables and are highlighted with “No credit check”.
If a credit check fails, other options and SIM ONLY deals will be provided.
SIM ONLY card delivery
If you have purchased a device the SIM card will be dispatched at the same time as your device. If you have purchased a SIM ONLY card this will be dispatched the same day if ordered before 4pm.
Replacements, lost and stolen
A 14 day cooling off period is provided to give the option to send your SIM ONLY card back to us. The SIM ONLY card must remain in its packaging and not have been activated through our activation portal.
If the SIM ONLY card is lost or stolen without activating it within the 14 day period of ordering it, a replacement will be issued through Envirofone. Please contact customer services on 0333 999 0951.
If the SIM ONLY card has already been activated through our activation portal please contact the network directly for a replacement.
Queries with the network bill or contract
Any queries or concerns in relation to your bill or contract, you will need to contact the network provider directly.
