Miss pandhandj's iphone 5 is getting a bit long in the tooth, so it may be time to look at upgrading her to a 6.

Can anyone suggest where to get a used/re-furbed one, with warranty, please?

All our phones are sim only, so no upgrades coming.

the websites i have been looking at all look like online version of dodgy-phones-are-us type of shops!

cheers,

paul

Any pub that has a flat roof and does a meat raffle on a Sunday will have a selection for sale.

I've got all my phones off eBay (most recently two iPhone SE), no real horror stories so far though one hacked/dodgy account where I got a quick refund. Choose your seller of course.

My Android phones come from ebay.

There are just huge numbers for sale as people get upgraded. It's just a matter of being sensible about users and condition etc.

Personally I'd avoid a repaired screen. My Android experience is that it very rarely doesn't create problems

If you are getting a 6 factor in getting the battery replaced by Apple. 6’s are incredibly slow

I have had a few from Smartfonestore

few problems so far and when we did have a problem, they replaced the phone with a grade better.

Not as cheap as a good ebay find, but reliable and hassle free.

Facebook Marketplace.
There have been a few iPhone 6's recently for £100-125. They typically ask for £150, - I've just looked, there are over 10 for £150 or less locally to me.

Bought lots of phones from these people.
Recently got an LG from them ,didn’t like it so sent it back and got a full refund the next day.
I would not buy a phone anywhere else.
Good people who sell good phones at a good price.
