I have switch up and I want to change my phone, do I need the box my original phone came in?

@Dawny2601

No, just the phone.

No you don't need it, just the USB cable and reset to default

No need even for the cable @jonsie

It's no different to sending device to recycle. Only bare phone required.

If you've still got the original empty box in perfect condition, you might get a few quid for it on eBay. It's strange but 'phone boxes do have a value !

The OP is using switch up so the device plan will be cleared fully by O2.

Absolutely pointless attempting to sell anywhere else.

I think that you have misunderstood @MI5. I am suggesting that as OP will have surplus box and cable, these could be sold on eBay if in perfect condition, similar to :-

The switch up of the device would go ahead regardless and the funds raised from selling the box and cable will be completely separate.
