Ā
Just fill in your phoneās details to get an instant quote. Weāll ask you for details such as your phoneās storage size, and what cosmetic condition itās in (make sure to check all the points listed for each condition, from battery health to light wear vs more serious physical damage) You should see a quote appear for your handset, right before your eyes

Ā
As soon as we receive your device, we immediately send it for evaluation. That means that if your phoneās condition matches the information that you sent us, youāll get the quoted price in your bank account the very same day we receive it. The power is in your hands - so make sure you give your old device a fair appraisal! We can pay you via bank transfer or PayPal.

Ā
You might be surprised by how little you need to do when selling your Apple iPhone 8. Before sending us your handset, youāll need to remove your SIM card. This will make sure that you can easily transfer your phone number to your new device.Ā
Youāll also need to remove your device from your iCloud / Apple ID account. You can do this from your phone, or online - weāll guide you through the process once you check out.
Ā
Once your device has been removed from your iCloud / Apple ID account, we do recommend that you factory reset your phone before sending it to us.
However, you should beware - simply resetting your phone to factory settings doesn't guarantee that your information has been destroyed forever. Thatās why we provide a Permanent Data Removal service, for free, for every single phone sold to us. Our company has been offering professional data destruction services for over 20 years, and we are registered with the ICO under the Data Protection Act. Simply send us your device, and we will take care of everything for you.
Ā
We're not afraid of faulty phones. You can still sell your broken Apple iPhone 8 to us - we don't need it to be in good condition or even working properly. 5 Billion old devices were thrown away last year, with a huge chunk of those heading straight to landfill - even when thereās plenty of use left in the deviceās hardware. We can even pay cash for your water-damaged iPhone 8! To be classed as broken, an iPhone may have a simple fault such as screen burn or pressure marks, or could even refuse to turn on.
Despite our best efforts, there are some circumstances where your broken iPhone 8 might actually be completely beyond saving - if your device is bent for example, or has its internals sticking out of the case, then it might be declared "Beyond Economic Repair" - and the best we can do is make sure that your handset gets properly recycled in a way that is safe, and good for the planet.Ā
Not only does e-waste put harmful substances into the environment - these phones contain rare-earth materials that desperately need to be recaptured and put back into the circular economy. The good news is that our recycling service is, and always will be, 100% free of charge. For more information, visit our Sell my Broken iPhone page.

We reserve the right to refuse any device if there are any signs that it has been tampered with, or if we suspect it has been involved in illegal activity. We cannot pay for:
Devices that have been reported stolen or lost
Devices that have been barred by any network
Devices that have been involved in any other illegal activities
Devices that have been broken into pieces
