The document
Terms and Conditions
These terms explain the legal basis on which Sell Any Mobile provides its website and free comparison tools. The central distinction is simple: we help you compare, but an independent recycler buys, receives, inspects and pays for the device.
About Sell Any Mobile
Sell Any Mobile is a free UK price comparison platform for people who want to compare offers for mobile phones, tablets, smartwatches, game consoles and laptops. The website is a product of Syhtek Software Solutions Ltd and is built and operated by World Business Software Solutions, a specialist division of Syhtek Software Solutions Ltd. In these terms, “Sell Any Mobile”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the operator of this website and comparison service.
We are not a recycler, device buyer, retailer, marketplace, payment provider, postal operator or inspection service. We do not buy or sell devices, take possession of them, process payments, issue recycler offers, arrange postage, inspect devices or determine the outcome of a sale.
These terms govern access to and use of sellanymobile.co.uk, its search and comparison tools, recycler directory, forms, guides and other content. By using the website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the website.
Definitions and eligibility
“Recycler” means an independent third-party business that buys, recycles, refurbishes or otherwise handles devices and may appear in comparison results, the UK Recycling Websites directory or elsewhere on the website. “Offer” means price and service information supplied by a recycler for a particular device, condition and, where relevant, network. “User”, “you” and “your” mean a person accessing or using the website.
The comparison service is intended primarily for adults in the United Kingdom. You must be legally capable of entering into any agreement you make with a recycler. If you use the website for or on behalf of a business, you confirm that you have authority to do so.
Headings help navigation but do not change interpretation. “Including” means including without limitation.
A comparison service, not a buyer or adviser
We organise information so you can identify a device and compare available recycler offers. The service is informational. It is not legal, financial, technical or professional advice and it is not a recommendation that you sell a device, choose a particular recycler or accept a particular offer.
No sale is formed on Sell Any Mobile. If you choose a recycler, any contract or other agreement is made directly between you and that recycler under the recycler’s own terms. You should read those terms before sending a device.
Prices, availability and comparison results
Prices and related service information are supplied by recyclers through feeds, integrations, affiliate networks or other data arrangements. Device values can change quickly. Although we work to present current information, we do not independently set recycler prices and cannot guarantee that an offer is complete, error-free, continuously available or still open when you proceed.
A displayed price is an indication of the recycler’s stated offer for the selected device details. It is not a promise by Sell Any Mobile and it is not the final sale price. The final price is determined by the recycler after it receives and inspects the device. Any reliance on a displayed price is at your discretion and risk.
Comparison results may be ordered using the available offer data and the device details you provide. Position, ranking, prominence or inclusion does not amount to endorsement. Recyclers cannot purchase a recommendation from us. We do not guarantee that every UK recycler or every possible offer is included, or that the first result will be the most suitable option for every user.
Sell Any Mobile is free for consumers. A recycler may pay us a flat £5 fee only when it successfully receives a device referred through the platform. That fee does not make us the recycler’s agent, does not transfer responsibility for the sale to us and does not guarantee any outcome.
Device condition and recycler inspection
Condition descriptions shown on Sell Any Mobile are comparison aids. Terms such as new, used, damaged, faulty or non-working are not universal industry standards. A recycler may use different definitions, tests, grading thresholds, deductions and evidence requirements.
You are responsible for selecting the condition that honestly reflects the device and for giving accurate details about its model, storage, network, locks, function, damage and completeness. A recycler may assess the device differently after physical inspection. It may confirm, reduce, replace or withdraw an offer in accordance with its own terms.
Any disagreement about inspection, grading, condition, deductions, counter-offers, returns or the final price is between you and the recycler. Sell Any Mobile does not inspect the device, control the recycler’s assessment or adjudicate the sale.
Recyclers are independent businesses
Every recycler operates independently, using its own legal entity, commercial judgement, terms, condition criteria, postage arrangements, customer service, payment methods, payment timing, returns process and complaints procedure. A recycler does not act for Sell Any Mobile and we do not act for it.
We do not control and are not responsible for a recycler’s business, financial standing, solvency, staffing, service quality, communications, inspections, decisions, payment performance or compliance. The presence of a recycler, its logo or its offer does not mean that we vouch for, endorse, guarantee or recommend that business.
No guarantee of price, payment or service
We do not guarantee any quoted or final price, payment date, payment method, postage service, returns service, inspection standard, response time, customer service level or other outcome offered or provided by a recycler.
Statements such as free postage, free returns, fast payment or payment within a stated period describe information supplied for that recycler’s offer. The recycler controls whether and how that service is delivered. You must verify the current terms directly before proceeding.
Your responsibilities before sending a device
You must own the device or have the lawful authority to sell it. You must not send a stolen, counterfeit, financed, leased, lost, insurance-blocked or otherwise unlawfully held device. You must disclose relevant locks, faults, damage and modifications honestly.
Before sending a device, back up anything you wish to keep, remove accounts and activation locks, remove SIM and memory cards where appropriate, erase personal data using the manufacturer’s current process, follow the recycler’s packaging instructions and retain evidence of tracked postage. You remain responsible for personal data left on a device and for checking that the recycler accepts the device and condition you intend to send.
UK Recycling Websites directory
Our UK Recycling Websites directory documents the UK device recycling industry past and present. It may include businesses that are no longer trading, no longer accepting devices, no longer listed for live comparison, or whose circumstances have changed since our last check.
A directory profile is informational and historical. Inclusion does not mean that the business is currently active, solvent, accepting devices, affiliated with Sell Any Mobile or available in live comparison results. “Still operating” and “listed on Sell Any Mobile” are separate statuses.
We may publish a last-checked date and information from public or supplied sources, but we cannot guarantee that directory information remains current. You must independently verify a recycler’s identity, current trading status, website, reviews and terms before contacting it or sending any property.
Third-party websites and tracking links
The website links to independent recycler websites and may use direct integrations or affiliate-network tracking to attribute a successfully received device. The tracking mechanism does not make us a party to the sale and does not allow the recycler to buy preferential treatment in comparison results.
We do not control third-party websites, availability, security, content, cookies, privacy practices or terms. When you leave Sell Any Mobile, your use of the recycler’s website is governed by that business. Review its terms and privacy information before providing details or sending a device.
Your choice and reasonable checks
You decide whether to use an offer and whether to engage with a recycler. That decision is made entirely at your discretion and risk. We strongly recommend checking the recycler’s current website, legal identity, trading history, recent independent reviews, service terms, postage cover and complaints route before sending a valuable device.
Comparison is one source of information, not a substitute for your own judgement. You may compare elsewhere and you are under no obligation to select an offer shown on Sell Any Mobile.
Acceptable use and automated access
You may use the website lawfully for personal comparison, genuine business enquiries and ordinary research. You must not misuse forms, impersonate another person, submit false information, introduce malicious code, probe or bypass security, interfere with availability, overload the service or use the website to facilitate fraud or unlawful device sales.
You must not scrape, crawl, harvest, copy, republish or systematically extract product, pricing, recycler or other website data by automated means without our prior written permission, except where a right cannot lawfully be restricted. We may rate-limit, block or suspend access where we reasonably believe use is abusive, automated, unlawful or harmful.
Our intellectual property
The website’s original text, software, databases, design, structure, selection, arrangement and branding are owned by or licensed to Syhtek Software Solutions Ltd, except where stated otherwise. You may view and use the website for its intended purpose, but no other right is transferred to you.
You must not reproduce, distribute, modify, commercially exploit, create derivative works from or frame substantial parts of the website without permission, except as allowed by law.
Manufacturer, product and recycler names
Manufacturer names, product names, recycler names, logos, photographs and other third-party material may be protected by trademark, copyright or other rights belonging to their respective owners. They are used for identification, comparison, information and directory purposes.
Reference to Apple, Samsung, Google, Sony, Nintendo or any other manufacturer or recycler does not imply sponsorship, endorsement or official affiliation. We do not claim ownership of third-party marks and we do not grant permission to use them.
Availability, maintenance and changes
We aim to keep the service useful and available, but do not promise uninterrupted, secure or error-free access. Maintenance, security events, data-feed failures, recycler changes, internet conditions or circumstances outside our control may interrupt or alter the service.
We may add, remove, suspend, restrict or discontinue any page, category, product, recycler, directory profile, offer, feature or the whole service. We may correct errors and change how information is organised or displayed without notice where reasonably necessary.
Privacy, forms and cookies
Our Privacy Policy explains how we process personal data. Our Cookie Policy explains functionality, analytics and referral-attribution technologies. Where a form is expressly designed to introduce you to suitable recyclers, we may pass the details you submit to those recyclers as described at the point of collection and in the Privacy Policy.
Do not submit unnecessary sensitive information through an enquiry form. Communications may be retained for service, security, legal and complaints purposes in accordance with our retention approach.
Complaints, concerns and takedown requests
If your complaint concerns a recycler’s price, inspection, payment, return or service, contact that recycler through its official complaints route first. Sell Any Mobile does not decide disputes between sellers and recyclers, although you may use our Report a Concern page to tell us about platform or listing issues.
For an inaccurate profile, unlawful content, privacy concern or claimed infringement, email [email protected] with your identity and contact details, the exact URL or material, the nature and basis of the concern, the rights affected and any supporting evidence. We may request verification, contact a relevant third party and remove, amend or retain material after a good-faith review.
Website information and disclaimers
The website is provided on an “as available” basis. We take reasonable care over our own content but, to the fullest extent permitted by law, do not promise that all information supplied by recyclers or other third parties is accurate, complete, current, suitable, secure or free from error.
Nothing on the website is a guarantee that a device can be sold, that a recycler will accept it, that an offer will remain available or that a particular result will be achieved. Nothing in these terms affects statutory rights or excludes a responsibility that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Limitation of liability
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, breach of obligations that cannot lawfully be excluded, or any other liability that the law does not permit us to exclude.
Subject to that paragraph and to the fullest extent permitted by law, Sell Any Mobile is not liable for loss, damage, delay, non-payment, reduced offers, return disputes, loss of data, loss of a device, service failure or dissatisfaction arising from or connected with your dealings with an independent recycler, a third-party website, information supplied by a recycler, or a contract between you and a recycler. Such disputes must be pursued directly with the recycler concerned.
We are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, loss of profit, revenue, opportunity, goodwill or anticipated savings, or business interruption. If you use the free consumer service and we are found liable for a loss arising directly from our breach, our aggregate liability will not exceed £100, unless the law requires a greater amount. This cap does not apply to liabilities that cannot lawfully be limited.
These limits reflect the free, informational nature of the platform, our lack of control over third-party transactions and the availability of direct claims against the recycler responsible for the sale. They apply only so far as fair and lawful in the circumstances.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms to reflect changes in law, regulation, services, technology or commercial arrangements. The updated version will be posted here with a revised date. Material changes may also be signposted on the website where appropriate.
Your continued use after an updated version takes effect means the updated terms apply to future use. A change does not retrospectively alter a separate agreement already formed between you and a recycler.
Governing law, jurisdiction and general terms
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales. If you are a consumer resident elsewhere in the United Kingdom, you retain any mandatory protections available to you and may bring proceedings in the courts permitted by applicable law, including the courts of the UK nation in which you live where the law provides.
If a provision is unlawful or unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary or removed, and the remaining provisions will continue. A delay in enforcing a right is not a waiver. No person other than you and us has a right to enforce these terms, except where legislation provides otherwise.
These terms, together with policies expressly incorporated by reference, form the agreement governing your use of Sell Any Mobile. They do not replace the recycler’s separate terms governing any device sale.
