“Samsung Galaxy S22+ listed as good but more like pristine. Arrived withing 48hrs in perfect condition. I've always bought refurbished phones and this is by far the best retailer I've used to date.”
“Phone arrived on time, even during the busy Xmas period. The phone looks amazing, very good condition. I would have liked a better battery life, arrived with 83% on a grade - Excellent phone, I have purchased refurbished phones in the past and normally get better battery life, the price was the cheapest I could find on the market following lots of shopping around. But overall very happy with the service. Informed at each step.”
“Ordered Pristine graded iphone for my daughters Christmas present in Nov. Phone arrived and phone was in prefect condition except for a small scratch on the screen. As their grading outlines there should be no marks on the screen I decided to contact them to return the phone for an exchange. They received the returned phone on the 29th Nov. It is now Christmas Eve and still no phone!! I have chased numerous times with the latest update from them that they GUARANTEE I would receive my replacement phone by last weekend in time for Christmas. Customer service is terrible and full of empty promises and lies. I ordered a phone from PhonesDirect on Sat and it arrived today in perfect condition so at least my daughters Christmas isn't ruined. Do not deal with this company. I can only imagine what it would be like if the phone went wrong and needed a repair under warranty.....good luck with that!”
“Wrong phone, waiting months for refund.
I purchased a phone in October. It came 1 week late. They sent the wrong phone. I posted it back using recorded delivery. They received it. They have still not refunded me almost 2 months later. Now they are ignoring emails. I am reporting them to trading standards. Please save yourself the headache.”
“Was sent the wrong item, so I emailed them and a few days later was offered £10 to keep it so I responded by email, a week later, heard nothing so emailed again and received an auto response stating that the mailbox was full.
The same day received an email asking for feedback.
Pity you can’t leave 0 stars AND still not received the £10 and I was also going to buy an Apple Watch ⌚️ from them but have bought that elsewhere now.”
“Waited from the 9th December until Saturday 21st for the phone and they have sent the wrong colour out. Closed at the weekend and now no response from emails and call”
“Very prompt delivery. I ordered two phones separately the arrival was quickly and the phones look in excellent condition. Hope the kids like their gifts.”
“Urgent: Request for Update on Phone Replacement/Refund
Hi,
I am writing to request an urgent update regarding my phone replacement or refund. It has now been two weeks since I initiated my request, and the only communication I have received was an automated reply stating I would receive the phone before the weekend. Unfortunately, that has not happened.
I am moving abroad in a few days and currently have no phone, which is causing significant stress. Without a phone, I cannot capture memories with loved ones or ensure I have a functional device for my travels.
Could you please provide an update as soon as possible regarding the status of my phone or a refund? The lack of communication and delay is extremely disappointing and not reflective of the level of service I expected.
I would greatly appreciate your urgent attention to this matter.
Unfortunately, I only seem to get a reply when I write a review.”
“Phone delivery was delayed so instead of me chasing for my order, it would've been more appreciated if customer service had let me know of the delay after the initial 5 days had passed. Nonetheless, my daughter is happy and so far no complaints.”
“Do not use this company. Ordered a phone in 'excellent' condition. They took 14 days to send the phone out and 16 days in total for it to arrive. When it did arrive the screen was in a terrible state with scratches so deep you could feel. I always purchase pre used phones and I have never had one in this state before. I Will never use this company again!!!”
“Where do I start with the lies, unprofessionalism and incompetence.
1. Next day delivery promised (and still being promised for delivery Christmas Day apparently). This did not happen.
2. Tracking number provided over a week later and email confirming phone had been posted. This was a lie which they later admitted to in an email.
3. Refused to answer why they had lied and kept being told to “have faith and trust it would arrive before Christmas”
4. Phone arrived last night. It was missing the charger, the sim pin, the apple box id paid extra for, oh and was not pristine. Marks and chips down all 4 sides.
They offered to post a new box and charger out which won’t come before Christmas and said I can buy my own charger and get a refund if I provide a receipt and sales approve it.
I now have a phone that doesn’t meet the description of what I was sold, missing items, evidence of failure to deal with a customer complaint correctly and as a lawyer will be taking this matter further.
Do not use this company!!!!!!”

Avoid this scam company at all costs
I don't really know where to begin with how smart cellular are so awful, and borderline fraudulent operations have affected our experience with them, my partner ordered a Samsung s23 ultra over a month ago and this phone still hasn't arrived not only that the refund they have said is agreed has also not happened, this phone was purchased on the basis of a 48 hour delivery time after a week still no phone, there were false promises and lies from whoever she delt with of online chat, because that is the only was you can have contact with someone, who I think also all use false names and they seem to use a tactic that they tell you what you want to hear and actually do nothing, and all you do is chase them,
After she was having so much trouble I got involved, I was dealing with Claire if that's her real name, who eventually agreed a refund of the phone, however that process has been just as frustrating full of blatant lies once again because two weeks later there is still no refund, our only option now is to post the truth on how this company operates in such a fraudulent manner on every platform we can think of until this matter reaches it's conclusion of course if they were to actually refund the phone before we contact the relevant authorities I will happily delete my reviews if this awful experience is delt with”
