Royal Mail
We love the Royal Mail Simply Drop site!! It’s one of the most useable sites out there, great prices are offered if you want to sell your old mobile phone, and they’ll even send out an envelope to you, you simply have to fill out the form on their site.
The Royal Mail Simply Drop service also gives you the opportunity to recycle digital cameras and MP3 players. This service also offers you the opportunity to take the money for yourself or donate it to one of their 5 chosen charities.
The process works like most others, in that you get your item values, send over the item and the reward is dispatched. The service eas orginally trialled in the London area only, however it was such as success that the service is now being trialled nationwide. So no matter where you are, the Royal Mail Simply Drop recycling service is there for yoU!

Yes, great service and good price. Very happy.
Yep, used Royal mail Simply drop service, it took a few days to get the cash in the end but I would recommend the service. Managed to get nearly £90 for my old Nokia N95 so very happy!!
Hi there you say “Note that the service is still being trialled and is only available right now in the London area, so if you’re looking to sell your old mobile phone and are not located in London, try one of the other services.”
However that is not the case. Simply Drop send out a free envelope no matter where you are in the UK. I wonder why you would have said that…
You’re quite right not sure how we missed updating the info here on Simply Drop. They trialed originally in London then went nationwide shortly after. thanks for reminding us it’s now updated!
Took a while to deliver the phone but super happy with the price and service.
I sent an iPhone 3G to them in perfect working order… I’d assumed they wouldn’t be shonky because of the Royal Mail affiliation but, surprise surprise, I received notification of receipt of the phone and that it is ‘not working’ so the original £115 offer was knocked down to £55. I’ve been out of the country trying to email them, and 12 emails have bounced, across the two different ‘queries’ and ‘query’ email addresses they have given out. Even giving them the benefit of the doubt (the phone could have been damaged in transit), the lack of communication is pitiful and tedious. I’ll be calling them as soon as I’m back in the UK. And claiming on the postal insurance, of course… So one way or the other, the Royal Mail is paying. But really, I’d advise anyone to just sell an iPhone on eBay (using all the sensible precautions to avoid dodgy buyers) rather than use Simply Drop or indeed – judging by feedback on other websites – any of the phone recyclers…
Sent my phone over 2 weeks ago and theyve said they still have not recieved.
I luckily took the IMEI number as this was the 1st thing they asked for..
Shoddy so far!! I only done it with them as it was ROYAL MAIL and i thought they could be trusted!
Terrible service. The site valued the phones at £90, I received £12 with no explanation as to why. The site has ignored every attempt that I have made to contact them.
Sent my Iphone 4 to the Simply Drop service on Tuesday, they confirmed receipt on Thursday and today (Friday) I have received my paypal payment! No problems what so ever and over £60 better than the likes of Mazuma/ Envirophone etc! Definitely use again and recommend to others 100%
