Joshua made my day!*
I spoke with Joshua, who was extremely helpful and thorough in processing my order, exactly the same great deal I had seen online. He explained everything very well and made me feel really valued as a new customer.
*Edited to remove a star as I subsequently received an email asking me to upload security documents to my online account that I didn't have and couldn't create. My email address wasn't recognised despite being used to send T&Cs, order confirmation and the aforementioned email. The lovely Joshua didn't mention that I might have to provide my ID, bank statement and utility bill, after my order had been accepted, and I am now awaiting a reply to my email asking how to upload my documents. I doubt I'm getting my new phone today, anyway.

Harry was able to offer the phone deal I required, which offered a good discount on the original Fonehouse price by quoting the Uswitch deal via Fonehouse which offered a significant saving. Harry listened to my request and was able to offer the deal.

Awful,
Awful,
I think this might be a con. I sent for a phone yesterday, the phone arrived... box damaged and dirty, phone box has been opened and no screen protector on the phone.
Called customer services to explain, spoke to the most unhelpful call handler called AMY, she was unwilling to help me to sort and said there was nobody else around to help sort this. Awful company.
in reply to what you put, this was not offered originally nothing was offered to me, absolutely shocking service!!!!!
I was looking for alternatives you offered me not a single solution to the problem that you caused. No help, no apology and nothing even as a good will gesture for the mess up that you sent me a opened and used mobile phone with three charge cycles on it, the phone was switched on already set up. All of the accessories also missing from the box. First used June 2026 with me only getting the phone yesterday 12 August, clearly been a used phone and selling it as a brand new phone. You can listen to the call time and time again it doesn't distract away from the fact of this that you sent a USED mobile phone and expected me to accept it with not even an apology for doing so. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!

Good Morning Emma,
Thank you for updating your review. We completely understand your frustration and are sorry that you felt nothing was being offered to resolve the issue.
We have listened back to the original call again and can confirm that a free collection and exchange was offered during the first call. However, we also appreciate that you were asking for the replacement handset to be sent before the original handset was returned. As this was outside of the usual process, our colleague was going to check this with a supervisor, who unfortunately was not available at the time.
We can see that the exchange has now been actioned for you, and your replacement device will be dispatched as soon as we receive the original handset.
We sincerely apologise for the frustration and poor experience you have had, and we appreciate your patience while we work to put this right.
Kind regards,
MJ

Seems like a good company, although there are people impersonating this company. Make sure you’re speaking to the correct Fonehouse.
I originally read a negative review about this company however I have now come to find out I have speaking to the real Fonehouse that I was scammed by a company in personating them, the real company was very helpful and told me that the next steps I need to do to cover my bank and Call experian to stop any further Credit checks. It had shown that they had applied for over five mobile phones from different companies also loan and taken deposit money out of my account. Make sure you are speaking to the correct Fonehouse and I would like to thank you, Jennifer for helping me.
