Sent my galaxy flip 7 to sell on Dec 8

Sent my galaxy flip 7 to sell on Dec 8, Item was lost in transit per royal mail. Got no compensation as of now still after 3 months. There goes my 1k pound phone gone like a dust. Such stressful and anxious time for me wish I just never sold it. Barely heard from the company

Bunch of scammers!

After initially being given an offer of £86, I was advised that the phone (which was sent in pristine condition) was deemed to be in a 'fair' condition because of two very minor marks on the side of the phone. They also claimed the back was 'lifting' which is utter nonsense. Due to this the offer was reduced to £33.50 which is honestly insulting. Do not waste your time with them as they are clearly looking to find any reason to offer you next to nothing. I've requested that the phone is returned to me and I currently await its arrival.

Professional aftercare

Edited review: while initially I had a problem with fair assessment, Meelie were very professional in sorting this out. They sent me CCTV footage and provided a reasonable reassessment. Would use again.

They provided very quick service and were true to their word. If you're honest about the condition of your device, you'll receive an honest price. I find it frustrating when people leave negative reviews simply because they misrepresented the condition of the device to get a lower price.

Rejected the offer but very professional

Apparently my phone had a very small Dent and hence the firm gave me a very lowball offer which I rejected. They were very professional after that and returned my phone via first class post immediately
