trade in your old mobile phone(s) for cash

If you have any old mobile phones kicking around, this may be of interest to you (shamelessly nicked from another forum

)

Quote:

Came across a mobile phone recycling site called www.envirofone.com
They are in partnership with Argos and will exchange your old mobiles for cash or Argos credit.

Values given for phones are different depending upon what they are, but if you are one of those people like me who go for 12 month cash back mobile deals and then get a new phone each year, this may be worth considering.

Have traded two phones so far with a credit of £97.00 on my account to spend in the High Street - and it's recycling, environmentally friendly, etc.

T&C - Each mobile phone traded in

a) should power-up (turn on) and be in a working condition
b) should not be crushed or water damaged although may have some mild cosmetic damage such as light scratching to fascias and surrounds
c) should have its battery and memory card (if your phone came with one originally)
d) should appear in our online guide

** Update - Another company www.mopay.co.uk seem to offer the same service but have different cash prices for phones to that of envirofone so you may want to visit both sites and find out which ones offers the best price and go with them

This looks really good, we've got 5 old old phones in a box, so i'll have to start working it all out, might have enough to buy my new 50mm lens!!

I'm not into mobile phones. i have an old PAYG phone that I take with me when I go out - otherwise it is turned off.

tempted to upgrade now as i just looked it up and I could get 27p in Argos vouchers for it
