Thank you so much Areeb!
Great value for money phone - never like to have phone plans from Telstra or Optus - lock you in and you are a slave - save a few dollars and get a like-new phone and choose your plan thats a fraction of the price from other providers that use the Telstra or Optus networks

Purchased my Samsung Ultra earlier this year. So far it has functioned perfectly. Service at the shop when picking the phone up was prompt and friendly, and the price was very competitive.

DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. This is the short version. I bought a phone, sent it back twice for the same problems, one being Google maps that I use all the time for work After me having to send it twice and all the time wasted in doing so, it still had the same problems. I asked for them to take it back and for a refund. Having known the problem, instead of doing the right thing they decided to make it a nightmare. The told me to video the problem, which I can't do because I would have to break the law by using a device while driving and use my time and money to drive around until the problem showed again. After emails back and forth they ended up just ignoring me completely. I paid $460 for the EXELLENT condition phone and also bought a cover and screen saver from another place ( which was ripped off and not replaced ) so my outlay was over $600. They are happy to help until they can't fix their product and then just wipe their hands of you. Never use them.

I am doing an updated review from the one I left 2 weeks ago. I have continued to be told a charger has been sent, yet nothing has arrived. I have had multiple "messenger" messages asking me to change my original review, they want to control what customers write, not what the customer experience might be. My review indicated it was like bribery, we will help you but only when you write what we say!. Two weeks on, its been more of the same, but all hidden from this website. I have had multiple requests to change my review, still no charger though they claimed to have sent 2 weeks ago. The response written to my original review reads I must have misunderstood. There was and is no misunderstanding from my end. In fact much of their reply online is difficult to follow at all. I rang Ross twice today and was told they would get in touch with the shipping tracking and tell me by 4. But of course nothing as usual. I am happy to upload their repeated attempts to get me to alter my review. i still strongly believe if you don't write what they like, they are not interested in resolving your difficulty. It's been such a disappointing experience given I have been a loyal customer. I feel so let down.

This is my first purchase from PhoneBot online. I was very impressed with the online presentation of products and the navigation on the site. it made it easy to find the exact model and features i was looking for. I purchased a brand new iPhone 14 Plus. The pricing was very competitive and the service including shipping very professional. I can recommend PhoneBot as a trusted online store.
