No device is ever the same so grading does vary from model to model, depending on the damage and condition.
Mobile phones/devices not listed on our website will be automatically recycled where possible, subject to these Terms. Such mobile phones/devices cannot be returned under any circumstances. Please ensure you are happy to send such mobile phones/devices to us for recycling only. You will not receive any payment for such mobile phones/devices. We accept the return of mobile phone/device boxes, battery chargers and mobile phone/device accessories but they do not increase mobile phone/device value and will not be returned if requested.
Do not include more than two mobile phones/devices in one package. If you require an additional sales pack please contact our Customer Services. Our Customer Service details are set out at the end of these terms and conditions.
For ad hoc damage and anything which affects our ability to refurbish or recycle your sales order there will be a reduction in price to reflect this damage. In these cases Buyur Ltd will have the final decision on all device values.
Each mobile phone or device (inc. Tablets and Watches) sold should match the make and model in the sales order, and meet one of the following conditions:
Condition – Good
Each device should:
Condition – Poor
Each device should:
Condition – Faulty
Each device should:
Condition – Dead
Each device should:
Dead examples: No power on, Blank Screen.
Please note: If you send any phone battery chargers or accessories to us these will not increase the value of your sales order in any way. We will not be able to return any phone battery chargers, accessories or original packaging (box) as they will be recycled when we receive your device and will not be returned even if your phone is returned to you.
Prices offered on our website are subject to change at any time without notice. Mobile phone/device values may change from day to day which means that if you check the value of your mobile phone/device on any given day but do not place a sales order, you may be given a different value for the same mobile phone/device at a later time. This does not affect any other provisions in these terms and conditions.
Any special offers on mobile phone/device values are subject to particular terms which we may impose and may be varied or withdrawn at any time and without notice. Values are shown and payments are made in pounds sterling. Each mobile phone/device is processed separately even if included in a multiple mobile phone/device sales order.
When your sales order has been placed, the prices quoted are guaranteed for 7 days. If your phone/device is received after 7 days from the sales order placed date the updated, current prices will apply. Buyur Ltd will have the final decision on all device values.
We test each mobile phone/device for compliance with our terms and conditions. We also check that the mobile phone/device is not red flagged (see below) according to CheckMEND® details. Tests are carried out prior to and are the conditions for, payment. We may stipulate additional tests as we reasonably determine.
As mobile phones/devices can look similar, customers sometimes incorrectly identify them. If we find that the model you send is not as referred to in your sales order, we will email a value for the actual mobile phone/device, confirming the model.
We also test the device for the network it is locked to. In some cases your device will receive a reduction if you have selected the incorrect network referred in your sales order.
You can choose to continue the sale for the revised value or decline it. If you decline it, we will return the mobile phone/device. The sale will not progress and our contract with you will terminate. To accept or decline a revised value, log on to your account where you will be given the revised value and be asked to either proceed or decline the revised value. If you do not respond within 5 (five) days, starting on the day on which we email the revised value, we will automatically process your sale after that time, using the new price. If you have queries about how models are identified, contact our Customer Services. Our Customer Service details are set out at the end of these terms and conditions.
Where possible, we offer a value for a damaged mobile phone/device but we are not obliged to do so nor to purchase any damaged mobile phone/device.
If we determine your mobile phone/device is damaged, we will value the damaged mobile phone/device to take account of the damage and send a revised value by email.
In some cases, values will be zero if mobile phones/devices are beyond economical repair or have multiple faults (e.g. water damage and cracked LCD screen). In these cases Buyur ltd reserves the right not to offer a value, but to return the device to you, thereby terminating the contract.
A revised value will only be given once the mobile phone/device has been tested or inspected. You can decide whether to continue with the revised value sale or whether to decline it in which case, we will return your mobile phone/device within 14 days, the sale will not continue and our contract with you will terminate.
To accept or decline a revised value, log on to your account where you will be given the revised value and asked to either proceed with the sale or decline the revised value. If you do not respond within 5 (five) days, starting on the day on which we email the revised value, we will automatically process your mobile phone/device sale after that time using the new price.
Mobile phones/devices in pieces or parts or mobile phones/devices which have no value will not be returned and we will recycle them.
We will check the status of all mobile phones/devices received against the National CheckMEND® database (using the unique IMEI or serial number). If your mobile phone/device is found to have a red flag by CheckMEND®, it must be quarantined for 28 days whilst its status is reviewed. The mobile phone/device will have a red flag if it has been registered as lost, stolen or barred/blocked on the CheckMEND® database.
If you are advised that your mobile phone/device has a red flag against it you will need to contact CheckMEND® in order to review the status of your mobile phone/device. You will be advised of the procedure required by email from us. The purpose of the quarantine period is to allow the rightful owner the opportunity to have the red flag removed in order that the mobile phone/device can be processed appropriately.
If, during the quarantine period the red flag is removed, your mobile phone/device will be processed and paid for in accordance with these terms and conditions and will not be returned.
However, if after the quarantine period has expired the red flag has not been removed then we are required by law to dispose of it and you will not receive any payment. UK legislation states that we cannot under any circumstances return the mobile phone/device during this 28 day period unless the red flag has been removed. If we become aware of any issues you will be required to co-operate with the authorities and we reserve the right to withhold or cancel the payment.
If you have received payment from us for a mobile phone or device which we subsequently become aware of an issue relating to ownership, you agree to immediately reimburse us in full, within 3 business days following a written request by us, for any such payment pending an investigation by us or any law enforcement body into ownership of the device or mobile phone.
We shall be entitled to set-off any sums properly due and owing to us under any contract made between you and us incorporating these terms and conditions against any sums owed by us to you under the same or any other contract between us. We will inform you in writing of any set-off carried out by us pursuant to this provision.
If your device(s) is activation locked we will contact you with instructions on how to remove the lock. If you fail to respond to this email within 7 days we will return the device. If the delivery failed on the first attempt we will contact you by phone and email before returning for a second time. If the second attempt is failed you the customer must contact UR.co.uk to arrange a third delivery at your own cost. If there is no contact for 7 days we will automatically process the sales order at the amended price for Activation Locked phones which is £0.
Please remember that by sending your device to us, you agree to release us from all and any claims, losses or damages with respect to the device, any data stored or contained therein or on any media used in conjunction with the device (whether in the form of personal details, SMS, photos, games, songs or other data ("Data")). We accept no responsibility in relation to the security, protection, confidentiality or use of such data and it is your responsibility to ensure so far as practicable that Data is removed from the device prior to you sending it to us.
Although in our experience the risk of Data left on your device being accessed by us or by any third party to whom we subsequently sell the device are very low, we draw to your attention the following points which will help you decide whether to accept the risk of selling us a device which may contain accessible Data.
If your device is functional, we strongly advise that you delete all personal data from the device prior to sending it to us. Please follow your phone/device manufacturers guidelines, for a step-by-step instructions on how to delete personal data from your device.
If your device is non-functional and has a "remote wipe" function, then we strongly advise that you attempt wiping the device prior to sending it to us.
If your non-functional device cannot be data wiped but has a PIN lock (a password or combination which needs to be entered to access the phone when switched on) then this will block third party access and mean that anyone repairing the device will be required to return the phone to its factory settings, in the process wiping the Data held on the device.
Please note it may not be possible to delete Data directly from a non-functioning device. If you send us a non-functioning device you are therefore accepting the risk that it may still contain Data which may be accessible to any person who repairs the phone. This may include third parties to whom we have sold the device for spare parts.
Please note that while (as stated above) we do not accept any liability in respect of the security, protection, confidentiality or use of Data included on any device, as a matter of practice we do not transfer any device to any third party except on terms which require them to wipe that Data.
We offer payment options including cheque, Paypal or bank transfer. You will be required to select a payment option when placing each online sales order. Unfortunately, this payment option cannot be changed once the sales order is placed. Payment options offered may change from time to time without prior notice.
When we receive your sales order, we will check that it is complete, and that it meets our terms and conditions. Providing it does, we will send payment by your chosen method.
Under no circumstances will payment be dispatched before we receive and process your mobile phone/device. We will pay by faster payment transfer directly into your account on the same day we process your device.
If your payment date falls on a weekend or public holiday payment will be made on the next working day. If your bank account does not accept faster payments, a BACs payment will be automatically made.
Payment processing depends on third parties which we do not control. For payment by cheque, this involves a postal service and for BACS payments, a bank. We will not be liable for delay in your receipt of payment as a result of third party action or inaction.
All valuations include VAT (or other applicable tax) at the prevailing rate.
Please Note: We will not be liable if you fail to receive a payment or suffer a loss (including, without limitation, if a payment is sent to an incorrect account) as a result of your failure to input all payment and other details correctly, completely and accurately. Payment can only be made to the name, address, payment and account details provided upon registration and incorrect details may result in delay or non-payment.
Cheque payments can only be made to the name and address given when you register.
If you have damaged your cheque, you can have it reissued, free of charge, by posting us a written request and including the damaged cheque to the following address:
BUYUR Ltd - Accounts Department
Units 11-15 Lancaster Fields
Crewe
Cheshire
United Kingdom
CW1 6FF
If the damaged cheque is not received by us, a cancelation fee will apply and will be deducted from the re-issued cheque value.
If you have lost your cheque, you can request for it to be cancelled and re-issued. A cancellation fee will apply and will be deducted from the re-issued cheque value.
Cheques must be deposited within 6 months of the issue date. Please note, your bank cannot and will not accept your cheque if it is over the 6 month period. A replacement cheque will not and cannot be issued after 6 months.
If you reject an amended offer for your sales order we will return your device/s. Please allow 3-5 working days. If the delivery is failed on the first attempt we will contact you by phone and email before returning for a second time. If the second attempt is failed you the customer must contact UR.co.uk to arrange a third delivery at your own cost. If there is no contact for 7 days we will automatically process your payment at the amended price.
You send your mobile phone/device to us at your own risk. Please ensure that you are happy to send the device to us in accordance with these terms and that it is within your rights to do so.
We will send you a reminder by email/SMS if we have still not received your mobile phone/device within 7 days of your sales order. We will not be liable if the mobile phone/device is subject to loss or damage before receipt at our warehouse. Equally, if for any reason your mobile phone/device is returned to you, you retain responsibility for risk in the mobile phone/device and we shall not be responsible for any damage in transit.
We do not receive deliveries on weekends and bank holidays. We strongly recommend that you pack the mobile phone/device carefully to minimise risk of damage. We use Royal Mail as the carrier for our free postage services in most cases and this regulates how you must pack and send your device(s).
Royal Mail regulations state that you must pack the phone in a strong, rigid package, ensure that it cannot move or be turned on during transit. For example using a cardboard box and encasing each device in a material which prevents movement in transit e.g bubblewrap and then packing out the box should be suitable. In addition you can only pack a maximum of 2 devices in any one package. If you have more than 2 devices to send then please contact Customer Service. Our Customer Service details are set out at the end of these terms and conditions.
The label we provide to send in your device(s) must be used on one package only – do not use the label on more than one package. You must take the package to a Post Office and hand it in at the counter where you will receive a 13 digit tracking number and receipt of postage.
The label and tracking service we provide with Royal Mail is insured up to the value of £150 for the package. If you require additional insurance then best option is to arrange and pay for your own service with Royal Mail or another carrier which provides the level of insurance you feel is suitable.
If your mobile phone/device is lost in the post we will advise you how you might claim against the Royal Mail but we cannot guarantee this to be successful.
If we receive a damaged package, the package and mobile phone/device (if we received it) will be returned to you so that you may claim for the loss directly from Royal Mail if you wish. By sending the package back to you we do not guarantee that the claim will be successful and we will not have any liability for any claims which are refused by external parties.
For more information about making claims with Royal Mail, please visit www.royalmail.com. This information is provided for your information only.
If we return your mobile phone/device, we use a carrier at our cost. If the carrier cannot deliver the mobile phone/device, we will ask them to return it to our Head Office, UR.co.uk Units 11-15, Lancaster Fields, Crewe, Cheshire, CW1 6FF and we will contact you by email to check your address. Once we receive confirmation that the address is correct we will resend the mobile phone/device. If a mobile phone/device is returned to us for a second time or if we have emailed you and we do not receive a response within 7 days, we will treat the mobile phone/device as our property, retain it and process the sale and will send you payment at the revised mobile phone/device value that applies on the date of the second return receipt by us or the fourteenth day after we have emailed you.
By placing a sales order through our site, you warrant that:
You and your parents or guardians release us of any liabilities or claims that may arise if you send the phone/device to us in breach of this warranty.
If you deal as a consumer any provision of this contract which is of no effect to a consumer shall not apply. Your statutory rights are not affected by this contract. For the purposes of these terms and conditions, “consumer” means an individual who neither makes this contract in the course of a business, nor holds himself out as doing so, as defined by the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977.
