After buying a phone for a family member through Back Market and seeing the quality and service I bought one for myself. The phone arrived on time and well packaged. The device was exactly as described. This is my first refurbished phone...so far so good.👍

Bought the Samsung S21+ for my son's birthday. Ordered it Friday arrived the very next day by 10 am! I did pay for the £5 extra delivery charge and was super impressed by how quick it arrived considering it was stating it would arrive on Monday. I was also very pleased with the condition and battery life on the phone. It far exceeded my expectations. Will definitely be buying from you again in the near future. Thanks again for a nice quick and easy transaction... 😊

I love my new S21 plus phone. It arrived in perfect condition. The battery is good so far. The delivery was very fast. This is my second phone from Backmarket and whenever I want to buy a phone in the future I will buy it from them.
