Feeling scammed

Feeling scammed, after 3 days and reaching out to there customer support all I’ve had is a confirmation of order receipt . Would highly discourage this company.

Hello Matthew Piggot and thank you for sharing a review with us. While i appreciate the concern that you had with your order i'd love to confirm that the device was successfully procesed and sent out for you the following Tuesday. Please note the order was purchased on the Satuday at 6pm which is out of our office times. Then we do not work on Sunday and the Monday was a Bank Holiday which meant we were not in to process this. The following Tuesday morning we processed this order for you and supplied a tracking number and it is now delivered to your door! Im glad i could clear this up and i hope you are enjoying your new device!

Kind regards,
Matt

How refurbished should be 👌

Ordered an iPhone 11 from Want a New Gadget through Amazon. It was a birthday present for my 10 year old daughter so really wanted it to be in good condition, when it arrived I was not disappointed, the phone was honestly immaculate and looked like brand new! Added bonus it had 100% battery health so they must have put a new battery in. My daughter was very happy with it. Would highly recommend based on my experience.

Brilliant iPhone 13 from this website!

I purchased my iPhone 13 from Want a New Gadget and I was not disappointed. The phone was described as Grade A condition and they are right! The screen is in brilliant condition and the phone is working just as expected! The phone was also sent with Royal Mail special delivery and was securely sealed upon arrival so I cant complain about anything! Thank you so much

Brilliant customer service from Matt and Dan at Want a New Gadget and great phone!

I come across the Want a New Gadget website to find there is plenty of refurbished phones and games they have to offer. Because I didn't really know what I needed to purchase I decided to contact them via the help page provided on their website and conveniently got through to 2 lovely chaps who helped me pick out the right device. I managed to purchase an iPhone 11 as it is perfect for my needs. The order confirmation come through and before I knew it, it was at my door! The phone is absolute brilliant condition and works just like it says on the website. I will definitely be purchasing from them again! Thanks guys!

Worst trade in experience, untrustworthy scammers

I traded in a device to them through Back market. I took photos of my phone before sending it, as it was fully functional, however the back was cracked. Upon receiving my package they initially messaged me claiming my screen was broken and completely detached from the phone. They offered me less money than initially agreed on after they had detached the screen claiming it was always broken. I confronted them and they quickly change their story, stating that everything was now operational. Yet they still refused to send the agreed upon amount. I am still awaiting on a response from them as they have not got back in touch.

EDIT: Back Market support contacted me and ensured I was payed the full initial agreed upon price. The support agent has filed a formal complaint against them and my trade in has been completed. Beware of trade in shops that will try and get one up on you.

Hello and i deeply apologise that you encountered an issue with Backmarket Trade-Ins.
The process goes through a Backmarket Agent that is assigned to the Trade-in then we relay to them the information for them to finialise the job. So unfortunatley we dont get any say in the final verdict.
If you recieve anymore issues please dont hesitiate to contact us direclty through our support email through our website and we will be glad to assist you with anything further. Thank you!

This company is fantastic …

This company is fantastic there delivery is fast they kept me informed every step of the way.
I love that this company wouldn't send my goods until they spoke on phone to confirm it was me who purchased the goods with it being a item, item this is very helpful.
Would highly recommend and I would definitely buy from them again thank you.

Faulty phone wasn't eligible for refund

Bought a refurbed phone, the screen started showing green lines after just a couple of months of use. Sent it to get repaired and they refused saying it was damaged. Avoid these clowns like the plague.

Hello and thank you for the review, unfortunatley this was a BackMarket order. The warranty status goes through Backmarkets checks which is completely out of our control and they make the final decision on if the device is faulty or OOW.

I am sorry that you recieved a bad experiance with them.

Phone, price, delivery - good. Customer service absent.

Ordered iPhone 12 Pro late on a Tuesday night, online.
The phone arrived, by Royal Mail, on Thursday. The order came with a tracking number which I followed and it arrived exactly as stated on the tracker. The phone was in pristine condition and works perfectly. The added bonus is the guarantee it comes with, although other suppliers do offer longer guarantees than Want A New Gadget. I did notice that some people who had received poor service or a defective phone were not having emails replied to, according to reviews on Trustpilot. I initially didn’t expect to be around for the delivery, which I estimated would be on the Fri or Sat, so I emailed customer service to ask them to delay delivery (it needed to be signed for). I got no reply. They should do better in that area. In the event, however, my son was in (it’s his phone anyway) and he’s very happy with it. So in my experience I would recommend this company. Just hope I don’t ever need to contact them under the terms of the guarantee!
