Trade-in Terms and Conditions

This offer is available to customers in United Kingdom when purchasing a new Nokia device in Nokia phones online store. You can offer to trade in your device (“Device”) to us during the checkout process at Nokia phones online store in accordance with these terms and conditions (“Conditions”).

  1. Telling us about your phone

    During the checkout process at the Nokia phones online store, you may have the option to trade in your current smartphone if the smartphone model is listed in the trade-in list available during the checkout process. Based on the information provided, the estimated trade-in value of the device is deducted from the initial cost of your order. The maximum value of the Device is capped to the value of the shopping cart. The trade-in value cannot be exchanged for cash. You are under no obligation to accept the proposed trade-in value but if you wish to proceed with the trade-in, you can submit your order. By submitting the order, you confirm that you are:

  • 18 years or over;
  • Registered at Nokia phones online store;
  • Resident in the UK; and

  1. Sending your trade-in device

    You will receive email correspondence from our partner, Corporate Mobile Recycling Ltd (“CMR”), containing instructions on how to send the Device. You have 7 days from the date that the order is placed to send the Device to avoid being charged the initially discounted trade-in estimate value from your credit card. Neither HMD Global Oy nor CMR are responsible for the data stored in the Device. It is the responsibility of you to transfer important data and SIM and/or storage card from the Device before sending it. SIM and/or storage card will be removed and disposed and all data will be deleted when the Device is reset to factory settings after which either cannot be returned to you. Also, you need to turn off all locks, passcodes and find my phone features before sending the Device in order for the phone to be qualified for trade-in. We shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused to the Device during the transit due to the improper packaging of the Device.

  2. Reserving the trade-in estimate value on your payment card

    Between the time that the order is placed, and the trade-in completed, we will periodically reserve a sum equal to that of the trade-in estimate value on your payment card. This is so that we can charge up to this amount if:

    a) We do not receive the trade-in device within the given 7-day time frame;

    b) The Device is valued below the initial estimate and you accept the re-evaluation.

    You will be notified via email correspondence that this sum will be reserved on your chosen payment card. Should the reservation or pre-authorization of this sum fail, the you must update their payment details. You will be notified via email correspondence should this need arise. You agree that you pass legal ownership of the device to us when we pay for your Device.

  3. Valuing the trade-in device

    The trade-in value depends on the condition of the Device. When receiving the Device, it will be inspected to ensure that its condition matches that which was described by you during the checkout process when placing the order. We aim to inspect the Device within five (5) working days from the receipt of the Device.

  4. Trade-in devices that are valued below the initial estimate

    If the condition of the trade-in device is poorer than that which was described by you due to reasons including, but not limited to, cosmetic damage, faulty operating buttons, connectivity issues or reduced functionality, the trade-in device will be re-valued. In such cases, you will be notified via email, at which point you can choose to either:

    a) Accept the re-evaluation and pay the difference between the new value and the initial estimate already discounted from the order; or

    b) Reject the re-evaluation and pay the sum of the trade-in value estimate already discounted from the order.

    Should you choose to reject the re-evaluation, the trade-in device will be returned to you via postal service at no additional cost. If your Device does not switch on or if we cannot access the screen of your device, the trade-in valuation cannot be done, and the value of the device is 0£. We do not accept any blacklisted, locked, barred or counterfeit devices, do not send such devices to us. The Device must not be stolen or listed as stolen by any third party.

  5. Trade-in devices that are valued equal to the estimate

    If the trade-in device valuation meets the estimation, no further action is needed from you. You will receive an email stating that the Device valuation met the initial trade-in estimate. The trade-in sum reserved on your card will be released and the card will not be charged further.
