I am selling a Samsung s22 128g brand new sealed locked to to EE
Just wanted peoples thoughts on what they have found to be a good website /company to sell to
I have checked MSE , and they have a comparison of most of them , just wondered if anyone has had a bad experience with any mobile phone buying websites

It's presumably on a contract?
I suggest you make sure this is legally yours to sell. EE Contracts have special terms imposed on when you become the owner of their devices. If you only recently got it especially it will almost certainly not be your property.
Almost any business who buys phones legally will be doing checks when buying it in. And this will flag up on AssetWatch. Best case scenario they refuse to buy and that's the end of it. Worst case scenario EE get alerted and you have to explain yourself to their fraud department.
So yes, definitely make 100% sure you are the sole owner and that it is yours to sell on."},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51328120","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Wii89"},"datePublished":"2023-11-01T16:14:00.000Z","text":"Mobile phones cant be locked to a network as per OFCOM rules"}],"commentCount":7,"interactionStatistic":1,"articleSection":"Ask"}
