Sending your device(s)

We have 2 options available for you:

Option 1: Create a free Royal Mail shipping label from home which can be generated by clicking here which will take you to our section of the Royal Mail website. Schedule A Collection From Home/Workplace – Find Out More Here

Options 2: If you don’t have a printer at home , you have the option to download a QR code to your phone. The QR code will be downloadable once you have generated a free Royal Mail label by clicking here.  Take your parcel to the Post Office and simply show the QR code to a staff member at your local Post Office. They will scan the QR Code from your phone which will allow their Post Office system to print the shipping label for you to stick to the package free of charge. Make sure you have the Device boxed up ready for the shipping label to be stuck on. The Post Office will not provide you the packaging. 

Before sending your device(s) to us and to help speed up our processes, please do the following:

  • Remove the SIM card
  • Restore the phone to original factory settings (including the removal of all PIN codes and passcodes)
  • Backup your personal information
  • Wipe all data
  • Include the original battery
  • Deactivate your iCloud/Google account.

Please take every care when packaging your device. Ideally, you should post your device using the original manufacturer`s box. If you no longer have the original box, any suitable box will do. You can use additional bubble wrap/ tissue paper to cushion the device in the box. Post your device using our Royal Mail Label.  Click the link below for a detailed device packaging guide : Packaging Guide – Ecofone™
