Vom Unternehmen geschrieben
- Our comparison tool provides a list of many different recycling companies on the market by price and customer ratings, so that you can find the top price to sell your phone or buy a refurbished one.
- At compareandrecycle.co.uk you can easily find the best price to recycle your used phone as we provide a comprehensive and trustworthy list of different recycling companies willing to pay you for your device. If you're looking for your next phone, we've got a great range of refurbished smartphones from reputable retailers and we can help you to find the best deal on refurbished phones from popular brands like Apple, Samsung, Google and more.
- Why is Mobile Phone Recycling Important?
- You will get some extra cash towards a new device, and you will prevent your phone from getting needlessly dumped on a landfill site as e-waste, which is highly detrimental to the environment and should be avoided at all costs. Electronic devices contain hazardous materials which can contaminate air, water and soil if they are not responsibly recycled or reused. Recycling your phone is a win-win for you and for the planet.

I bought new phone, said not pristine. When was unopened and day old.
I bought new phone, still in box and one day old when sent it to ur.co.uk. They offered me £475 and when sent it, come back with £410 saying it not in pristine condition. It does not come more pristine than new in box and unopened. I would not go to company again, I have done it like 12 times in pasted and this 1st time ever had problems. I have sent them receipt off my new phone and asked them how it not pristine. Plus they saying it dropped in price, when anywhere else gives you 2 weeks to honour that price.
Shocking company and getting reported, do not use and go music magpie or vendi. I have never had trouble with them two and get paid out with them two right away. You only got read reviews to see how many people have had problems with this company.

HI Anthony

Slow payment
Slow payment
Initial process was fine, we received confirmation for the phone that it was already accepted and gone through the check on 16/03/26 which promised that after 7 days, payment will be received. Unfortunately that didn't happened, we have followed up multiple times and was promised the week which was this week. Now we just checked again for any updates on the payment, and it showed that payment won't be coming in for another 2 weeks. Very disappointed. Hopefully someone can help me expedite this. Thanks.

Sold a phone through compare and recycle to UR.co.uk and it’s turned into an absolute nightmare. They still haven’t been paid for the phone nearly ten days later with no sign of them doing so.
Reviews are not good at all for UR, with many other customers having the same complaints, wish I’d seen them before sending the phone!
AVOID UR AT ALL COSTS!

I will never use this company again
I will never use this company again
Sent my iphone off after receiving a good offer
I was told it was not in good condition so reduced the offer significantly
I said it was in good condition and can I have the phone back
The company then offered slightly more
I still asked for the phone back
They again offered more - then more until it was nearly but not quite the price they offered in the first place
Go elsewhere do not use this company

Hi Yvette
Compare and Recycle are a comparison site, so do not receive, grade or pay for devices. We are sorry you have had a negative experience with your selected recycler.
In cases such as yours, Compare and Recycle always recommends declining any offer you are unhappy with and asking for the device to be returned if needed.
We reached out to the recycler for more details on your order. They explained that the device arrived with multiple scratches and a cracked screen, which was the reason for the regrading of the device.
Quick and easy to use.

Quick and easy.
As ever you never get the price they originally offer you. In the end I got less than half I was originally offered.
But they paid money into my account quickly.
