Poor customer services False advertising Was looking to purchase a phone with bundle extras but luckily before I processed payment noticed extras had changed I was enticed to them by the offering of a Tizumi charge mat only for this to be change to a cheap useless case with belt clip I had no need or desire for Spoke to a customer service rep who was telling me that was because the charger was out of stock but I pointed out it was still available both separate and advertised with other phones. The the guy tries telling me that the charger for the phone I was looking at is out. When the item is a universal wireless charger. They would do nothing to rectify so don’t touch them and shop elsewhere. I think I will shop at Boost

Bought a "Grade A" OnePlus 7t Pro 5G McLaren edition - and was concerned that it may have some screen burn-in or scratches due to being a 2nd-hand phone at half the price of a new one. I am incredibly fussy with things like this and Phonebot didn't let me down. The phone was in absolutely mint condition with not a single scratch on it or any sign of screen burn-in whatsoever. It was like getting a brand new luxury-tier phone for half the price - an amazing store that I'll use again when I want to replace this phone. Thanks Phonebot!

Product came not working. Customer service has so far been slow. I'll change my review when a fair solution is made. A replacement is preferable. Edit- PhoneBot has recalled my product and has contacted me to choose a different product from their website and may also provide a discount on the new product I choose. I will change this review to 5 stars when I get a working product of my choice. 2nd Edit - First and last time I buy anything here. I'm sure if you purchase a product that functions as it is suppose to when you receive it, you should be okay.. the product came at an expected time. And if it connected to my phone I would have been a happy and satisfied customer. But if you receive a product that does not connect to your phone, and you need to go through a returns process, I hope you don't have to. I understand you believe everything went flawlessly with your management of the returned product, but I beg to differ. Although the experience could have been worse, I personally feel that the customer support can be improved in regards to communication and speed. It took roughly 2 weeks to have them request to return the product, after sending videos proving the product is not connecting to my phone. I followed every instruction, and was willing to pay an extra amount to recieve a different product that works. PhoneBot requested that I send a link of the product I want, they requested the colour i prefer on the new product, and they sent an invoice with the extra cost to pay the difference of the new product(this invoice had a 15 dollar discount added to it, and I thought it was a nice gesture to make things better). *We agreed that once the audit on the returned product was complete, that all I had to do was pay the invoice (which had a 15 dollar discount included) and the new product will be sent to me.* I was feeling impatient enough already, but i was willing to go through the process and hope for a better outcome. I then receive a call and an email saying my original payment was refunded and the extra invoice to be paid was cancelled. I now have to wait 3 days for the money to come back to me, pay for the new product through the link I was told to send to them, and then be given a 15 dollar discount AFTER I make the full payment. At this point, I personally didn't enjoy dealing with PhoneBot and feel things could have been resolved more efficiently and effectively. If i didn't have the manager talk to me over the phone, I'd give 1 star. His patience in trying to rectify my dissatisfaction was honorable (aside from when he basically demanded that I change my review), But not enough to get me to purchase with them again. Am I over-reacting? Perhaps. But all I wanted was a pair of working ear buds, and I'm not happy that just about 4 weeks later that I am worse off than square one (wasted my time, the original agreement was changed, a slow emails service IMO(excluding delivery times), and now i need to wait at least 3 days for the refund to come back to the account which I originally made the payment with, which has had its card details changed. I hope the payment still comes through hassle-free and doesn't get bounced back - It Would have been nice if they called me before they made this decision.) But all in all, I am happy staying at square one than to deal with you again. And do not call me to *demand* that I change my review, like last time. I am entitled to express my experience. Do not tell me "do not post a review" like you said over the phone with me. I have never had a company say this to me before. I've given 2 stars because overall I am not pleased. If the money bounces back in 3 days, I will change it to 1 star. I'm done running in circles and back and forth emailing. You do not need to hold the same perspective as me Phonebot, but this is my review and perspective, not yours.

Bought my mum a birthday present. Great value for money, came well packaged and the accessories provided were top notch. When the time comes for me, I will definitely consider Phonebot.
