“iPhone 7 / 128GB purchase. I was looking for an iPhone without the $1000 price. Phonebots website directed me to the perfect phone. An "A grade" choice. The phone is perfect. No blemishes and work as described with 6 months warrenty. I could not be happier. Ordered online, and 3 days later arrived, with no fuss. After a bit of google searching found the price to be lower than other sellers. To ensure I received what I wanted I called them to explain to me what to expect. David Parker answered all my questions with a great knowledge of the type of phone I ordered, very professional. My needs are simple, the iPhone has many more features than I need. Definitely recommend calling David Parker to help you with what you are after. RATING: AAA+++ and service the same. He had taken his time with my queries, no hard sell or pushy. Yes, give them a call it's well worth it.”

“You DECEIVE your customers with big inflated advertisements and offers but when you are caught out, refuse to ownership of your disgusting conduct...The "AS NEW AND SCRATCHLESS" phone I bought from Phonebot was covered in scratches all over front screen and was covered over by a screen protector to deceive me. You would not acknowledge any wrong doing on your behalf or even a mistake on your behalf no matter how much discussion or facts were given to you. So I started warning others about your unethical business practices, on FB and you have responsed with lies and unfactual statements.”

Dear Linda, Most respectfully I will like to request you to tell yourself that, how come Phonebot does not honor its words and is deceitful ??? Thousands of supportive feedback or numerous platforms oppose your bogus allegation against us!! You bought a phone and after a year you come up saying that it has scratches on it then, Yes my friend, there will be scratches appearing on the screen as the device has been used. And if it comes to the other phone (Samsung flip) that you have bought, you claim that UV light shows a scratch on the screen but not a naked eye shows that then it's a JOKE! You were requested to share a few pictures of the Samsung Flip, which does not have a screen protector inside it but still, somehow you were revealing a scratch with a UV light but you never did.. and one last thing I will like to ask why would you always come after the change of mind window is closed. Therefore, I request you to be a reasonable customer and let us know if we are at fault. For any queries feel free to reach us at support@phonebot.com.au Best Regards, Team PB

“BEWARE.....CHECK YOUR DEVISE UNDER A ULTRALIGHT BEFORE ACCEPTING YOU HAVE RECEIVED THE DEVISE YOU PAID FOR!!!!!!! PHONEBOT deceive their customers. The amount of money you pay for a device from PHONEBOT is based on their grading system. BUT BEWARE!!!!! you are not getting what you believe you are paying for. I purchased a "LIKE NEW" IPhone Pro MAX 11 and a "AS NEW" Samsung FOLD Z3. Both of these devises are advertised, promoted and graded as "SCRATCHLESS". However when both of these devises were placed under an ultra light, it revealed both of these devises had scratches all over their screens. When I took this discovery to PHONEBOT they use every excuse and reason to "NOT"acknowledge they are DECEIVING THEIR SO CALLED VALUED CUSTOMERS.”

Dear Miss Linda, Thank you for taking out your valuable time and raise this concern up. After having a conversation with you, I was expecting something similar. Now I will once again like to mention this here that you bought a phone from us in last year February and then you complain that the device is scratchy and after getting it inspected for resale the, the buyer says it has scratches. Yes, its surely possible !! Using a phone for an year may leave it's signs of being used and also it was not a box pack BRAND NEW device, therefore, marks on such phone are considered to be normal. Coming to your second phone, the Z Fold 3 you have got, you say it has been tested under a UV light. How does it make sense to you that a UV light will show a scratch and a naked eye can't see one? Z Fold has a folding screen and has got no protective film installed then if there is a scratch then it has to be visible otherwise its just a story. We would have offered you a rebate or compensation to match the price by considering it to be a downgraded one sent out to you, if for an instance we agree on what you say that the phone was not as per the description but you have waited for 1 year for one device and one month for the other one and then reached us out which makes both of these claims voided. I know its frustrating and disappointing but this is the policy on how the phones and other devices are sold all over the world and policy is always made after foreseeing all such scenarios. In case of any sort further queries, feel free to reach us at support@phonebot.com.au Best regards, Team PB
