Easy to navigate site, all options clearly laid out, competitive pricing. Phone arrived quickly. Wish the number could have been carried over a little quicker but still didn't take too long.

After purchasing a new handset

After purchasing a new handset, I tried to return the phone multiple times, but never got a proper response, and couldn't speak to anybody that could help me get my phone returned. I had to go to 3 different Curry's stores to finally enable the return. I still don't think I'll get my money back for the line rental that I haven't used. Not happy.

Edited - mobiles.co.uk have sent a a cheque covering my line rental and purchase, and an apology email after reading the trustpilot review. Fair play, but try to react as appropriately to consumer issues as you do to bad reviews in future.

Thank you for your review

I’d like to apologise for your experience. It’s disappointing to hear we’ve failed to deliver the level of service you should rightly expect to receive. I'm sorry to hear the issue with your return and I do understand the disappointment this would cause.

I’d like to assist you today and help provide a resolution, however you were unable to take my call. As a result, I have sent you an email with reference number MOB214652 in the subject so we can discuss this further.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Product page does not show the option…

Product page does not show the option of SIM type to select for - assume that it will be physical SIM card to insert into the handset. But it’s turned to be eSIM shown on completion of order.
This was not presented the product details clearly to the customer for the choice of SIM to select for. This information of the product page did not point out that default of the product will be eSIM after placing and completing the order.
Beware that it will cause you to buy a new version of phone handset which support the use of eSIM otherwise you will not be able to use the eSIM you’ve paid for on the old mobile handset.
Bad product advert! Disappointed! 👎🙁

I am leaving the review about your…dpd

I am leaving the review about your courier service Dpd did everything they said gave me a time code and have been in all day waiting for my phone to find out he has pushed a card through taken a photo of my front door from the road and drove off. Now telling me he won’t be back until Monday when I am holiday for 2 weeks so still without my phone. He didn’t knock use the door bell. I just can’t believe the poor service I have no choice but to cancel my order and go somewhere else because I need a phone on holiday.

Awful - avoid at all costs

Phone delivered yesterday - issue with battery overheating straight away. Called customer service said phone is faulty and will exchange but will take 5 working days, when original phone took one day to arrive. Asked to speak to a manager takes up to 48 hours. Wouldn’t use again.

Easy to buy a 1 month only sim.

It was so easy to buy a 1 month only, unlimited data e-sim from Mobiles but it was quite another matter to cancel it. Even though it's for one month you have to give 30 days notice to stop it automatically renewing and recharging you. It was very tedious to have to ring customer service (real name sales retention?) and explain why I wanted to cancel it - because I was going away for a week and top-ups are so expensive if you are going to use a lot of data. Will I do it again? Yes, probably! It's the cheapest way I can get over 100GB of data that I get through in 14 days and I need to be on the Three network at the moment because it's the strongest signal where I go and the mast doesn't yet support Vodafone.

Hello Andrew
Thank you for your review.
I’m sorry to hear of your experience when trying to cancel your contract; I understand the frustration this would cause.
As per the networks terms and conditions, unless cancelled, a 1 month contract will continue to roll over.
If you need any further assistance, then please respond to the message we’ve sent with your Order ID.

I opted to stay with mobiles.co.uk for cost and simplicity, and when I phoned to renew my contract a) the call was answered quickly, b) the agent found a cheaper deal for me, and c) he explained all the detail clearly.

Never one to write reviews but this time I needed to share my thoughts…

Never one to write reviews when I’m asked after making an online purchases, but this time purely based on my experience and how pleased I am, I thought it was only fair to share my thoughts and to help anyone who’s unsure of if to trust the site or application process!!
Probably one of the best experiences I’ve had when it comes to getting a contract pay monthly phone deal online and at a very competitive and affordable price to suit my budget and needs plus with the latest handsets on offer as well!!
Very easy application, what you see is what you pay for with no hidden charges or nasty surprises after processing the order…I definitely recommend and I will be sharing my experience with anyone who asks me “where the best place to get the latest deals and handset from” it will certainly be Mobiles.co.uk that I say 100% 5* rating and service…

No prepaid credit card

Everything was great apart from 1 thing. I had to pay £169 upfront, this wasn’t a problem until I was told I couldn’t use a prepaid credit card to pay it. If it wasn’t for that, it would have been 5 starts

I'd avoid any company who use DPD delivery

The mobile itself is good, as were the prices, but unfortunately they use DPD as a courier, which meant I had 2 wasted days of attempting to make contact with them and waiting in the house for a delivery which wasn't coming.

I'd avoid using them again for this reason.
