[U Spare Cashback Claim Forms

Please only use these if you have LOST your cashback form. [U Only use them as a last resort!! I can't guaruntee 100% that they'll work but they're useful if it's your only hope. All claim forms are in Adobe PDF format. You'll need Adobe Acrobat reader installed on your system to view/print them. It can be downloaded for free http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html HERE . I advise you to print them as high quality as possible, preferably using a laser printer if you have access to one.

[U Selling Your Phone On for Extra Cash!! (external links)

There's three ways to do this. Firstly, you can visit a special site to sell your phone. These phones are sorted into good/bad. The poor condition ones are used for parts, good condition ones are sold in Asia and the Estern countries and the batteries are usually recycled in France. These dealers will give good money for newer phones, however if your phone is too old it's doubtful you'll get a lot of money from them. The second option is to sell them on an auction site, free classified ad or car boot sale. This is more hassle, but with newer phones you'll usually get more money. The third and final option is to trade-in!! Buy a PAYG phone from some companies and you'll get about £10 off, sometimes more. Uusually all that is needed is any phone that turns on. It doesn't need accessories most of the time, so it's a useful way to get rid of old phones which can't be sold elsewhere.
