According to my tracker with Royal Mail it has been delivered but I have not heard anything from this company since.
They have my phone and no one answers the phone or gets back to emails!
Any advice who to go to?

I had taken a quote with them for another phone but will now not be selling to them. Will use another more reputable company instead for my other phone

I am in the process of researching who I can escalate this with as clearly they have stolen this phone.

“The screen has visible marks. It has deep scratches in more than one place. As a result we have amended our Valuation to £55.00 that reflects the cost to carry out the work on your old device so it can be given another life.”
This isn’t true. The phone is in excellent condition. So, using their online service, I rejected the offer and requested they return the phone. They then revised their offer to £75. I rejected it and requested the phone’s return again. Ever since, I’ve emailed twice and heard nothing back. I’ve tried calling them today: no answer.
I’m very worried now that UR:
a) has disappeared – taking the phone with them
b) will underhandedly try to circumvent my requests by, for example, saying they’ve returned the phone (when they haven’t) or – if they’re particularly underhand – gouge deep scratches in the screen, then return it to me (thus fitting with the false assessment they provided).

However, on the website, during the application to sell my phone to them, this wasn’t stated anywhere. Instead, it clearly said that “light wear and tear acceptable – no cracks, scratches or chips visible from 30cm”. The phone I sent them had no scratches, no chips or cracks at all, let alone from 30cm.
I thought something like this may happen, so I actually took screen shots of the company website, where they state the requirements for a phone in a “good” condition, plus, I also took a video of the phone I sent them, on the day that the application to sell my phone was filled out and submitted. I sent both these over to UR and asked for someone to contact me to resolve the matter and heard nothing.
I also attempted to call their customer care team on the number they provided, the phone line rings for about 30 seconds, before it drops dead.
Just seems as if they intentionally put high prices on their website, so that customers send them their devices, before making up reasons as to why the value of the device is lower and then offering them low ball offers, with the hope the customer goes for it.
I have chased and chased UR for a response and still have heard nothing in return.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

Now, nearly three months later, I’m still left without answers. Customer service has been incredibly unhelpful, with them putting the blame on myself, even after I followed all their instructions. It’s incredibly frustrating to think I’m expected to accept the loss of my phone without any resolution.
Avoid this brand at all costs unless you want to risk losing your device and dealing with a lack of support. Very disappointed!

According to this scammer company the phone needs to be able turn and and no damage…..! Why have the option to sell a broken phone if you want it in good condition under broken. I will be reporting you to the money supermarket and try my best to get your company taken off there, false advertising

Whole process took 10 days!
They were late finishing with my phone then said it was scratched on screen and case…it’s always been in a case.
They offered me half original quote.
Emailed them said decline if unhappy.
Read reviews and saw people never got phones back or they came back with fresh scratches!!
Sold it to them as under the impression it would be unsellable if returned.
AVOID !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And omg the telephone experience is worse than a dogs breakfast.
This company should be shut down.
I’ve dealt with some shocking people,but these definitely come out as the worst of the worst.
So people do not waste your time and money on this outfit.
Just can’t belive how bad they are.
