Willow Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Going through my office I found 2 very old scuffed Nokia handsets after a bit of a search on line I found fonebank http://www.fonebank.com sent them off freepost and got a cheque for £18.50 back within days Now these handsets were so old I was going to put them in the tip weee recycling. One of the phones had been quoted as worth £3.50 on another money for old phones site and the other wasn't even listed on the the others as a phone they would accept.

Jools Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Thanks for the link - my old Nokia has just died and I was about to look for a way to recycle it The husband is a Toy Boy, so I just raided his toy cupboard and found his old mobile which has now been recycled into my new phone.

Eggasperated Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Thanks for this info Patricia, I had a hunt around and found two old Nokia phones, one of which was worth £30 and I also got a couple of quid for the other one; cheque from Fonebank arrived this morning . I've always thrown old phones away before so this was well worth knowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunshinesupernova Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 nice one. Thanks for posting. I've booked in 3 old handsets that are prehistoric and they're going off tomorrow in return for £24.00. That'll feed the chickens for a little while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongladosh Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 does Tesco still do that deal that gives you clubcard points in return for recycling your old mobile? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
