O2 Recyle - Advice on chip on phone

[Alexhaden]

Hi All,

before i send my phone off to O2 Recylce - just wondering if its worth it? 

Basically, while the whole of the phone is in 99% perfect condition, it has a slight, tiny chip in the edge of the screen.  Dont know how its happened, as its always been in a a UAG case since it was bought.

Its the only blemish on the phone, not a scratch, dent or anything else.

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with them, would this class as screen damage and reduce the quote by 50%, or would it just be something like 10%?

I can cope with 10%, as it would still give me £200, but 50% and its not worth the trouble/stress.

I have attached a piccy to show the only thing wrong with the phone.

Any advice welcomed

Off to collect shortly and nip into CEX....Now the which case should i get dithering starts.......um......

Flip, folio, impact, rugged, clear, RED, green, Orange, Polycarb, Leather, ........

This is worse than deciding what phone to get!

Wouldn't be any issue for me @Alexhaden Mine was flip....and red...

This is the one im thinking of, had UAG cases before, always been good, not too chunky but really drop proof!  

Thinking as the plus has more screen, more chance of being scratched, so better get a flip 🙂

If you get a new iPhone get a tempered glass screen protector from Amazon. Brilliant & a really easy fit. 

I paid £3.95

not got an iphone (lg g4) but plus 1 for the tempered glass protectors!
I went for a spigen case. Not a flip front, but with the screen protector wasn't too worried.

Do they cover the whole screen or just stick to the middle like a wart?

@MI5 They cover the whole screen I'll find a link to the one I have

Cheers mate - the one on my daughters phone only covers two thirds of the screen and looks daft.

PM me the link if you want, just in case it contravenes the T&C's.

Ok - Now that was a fab result!

Spoke to O2 Recycle, and they offered me 49 for my old phone, 

Mazuma said 99 as they would say the whole screen needs replacing

Went into CEX and he said - that tiny thing - cant see why not, and then offered me £202 for the phone...

I was happy with that 🙂

Ordered my case, tempered glass protector (to try out) gone for the anker one, but never managed to collect my phone - so thats the job tomorrow (as long as i cut the grass first.....)
