Note 9? recycle old phone?

[NayMau5]

Hi,

Looking at upgrading to the note 9,

my current phone is a Pixel XL 32gb, if I upgrade and recycle now will I send my phone off when I recieve the new note or will I need to send it off to them asap as obviously I dont want to be without a phone?

Kind regards,

Nathan

@NayMau5

To get the price quoted now it needs to be sent immediately as the price changes on a regular basis.
Personally, I'd suggest you sell to CEX when you upgrade. You usually get more from CEX and you can walk out the store with the cash in your hand.

@NayMau5Yes far better to take to CEX. O2 Recycle are notorious for quoting a price which diminishes greatly when they actually receive the phone.

At least you know exactly the price you are getting with CEX.

thanks guys but O2 are saying I could recieve £160 for it and it is a low grade A high B only a few scratches near the charging point, and CEX will only offer £117 according to there website?

Doubt you'll get that from O2 but do let us know......

[NayMau5]

not sure what do to yet , Going to ring O2 tomorrow but will let you guys know what I do and how it turned out

Just remember @NayMau5 whatever O2 SAY you will get, 'could' be entirely different to the actual price offered when they receive the phone. We say this from experience of reading so many posts from extremely disappointed customers.

The one good thing is you don't have to accept their offer. You just ask for the phone back.

This does mean you would be without a phone whilst O2 assess the price.

Actually I got full price on Recycle for my old iPhone in store a couple of days ago. The lady said it had to be sent off for evaluation but the manager said it was fine & I used it to pay off the main bulk of what was left on my old device plan

Yes @Anonymous though if I remember correctly, you have never had a problem with them. There again you use the same shop all the time and they must know you well by now?

Well Christmas is drawing ever nearer and they will need to fund their festivities at our expense. I'm guessing they will all get big fat bonuses for fleecing customers.
