Thats the thing right? people say they are saving with trade in, but you get waaay more selling separately.

i just paid 599 today for an s24u and that was cheap, theyll probably hold value with the s25 being so medicore

Yes, agreed. Even buy my phone sites will match the £560 for trade in. I get more topcashback @ 15% if I don't trade-in as well. Anyway, ordered the titanium black S25 U 512GB. £140 topcashback, £100 discount code, employee portal etc.
Paid £960 on Samsung.com, hopefully sell my S24U for £600, net £360. Take away £140 for topcashback and £96 from complete savings, sell the buds hopefully for £40, means around £80 to upgrade from S24U to S25U, not bad for me

This is what I would have done if I was buying. I could easily sell my S24U for £650

Having a look the max discount I can get is was £910 for the S25 ultra 512gb, I dont know if I would get the cashback, normally it needs to be don manually, if i did apply to I put the amount as original price or the discount price ? I have a s23 ultra 512gb, the trade in is lower and im not sure what i would get if sold privately it has a few marks.
 
are any of the mobile-buying sites any good ? not the type that offers you one price and the give you less after its been sent to them.
 
I always take the TCB as a possible, espeically when buying via epp/bluelight whatever. Phone recycling was only £20 more than the trade in price (again dependent on condition etc, my s24u ratttles when it vibrates so no chance of a recycling company would pay out top cash offer, same goes for a private sale)

£150 off thanks to Samsung CS chat
My order was for a jetblack S25u 512gb - auto upgraded to 1tb £421.65 (with discount applied)


15% tcb if it pays out with be a further £63.25 - bringing it to £358.40

The buds will either be sold or gifted (lets face it the market will be flooded)

I've tried the £150 off thanks to Samsung CS chat, but you really only get £100 and £50 off a bud 3 pro if you want to buy them.

auto upgraded to 1tb £421.65 (with discount applied) is that £1349 deal ??

On the cash back is it auto or do you need to manually do it ?

I normally need to manually do it most of the time. and if manually do I add the full price in the value or the discounted price ?

I let TCB track my purchases via their plugin, adding manually just use the price you paid

I dont know how likely it is to get the cashback, but with the other discounts the phone will cost £861.65 + £50 I pad to get £100 off on the pre orders,
free buds 3, case and charger.

For some reason i could not use the other £50 voucher

A possible 15% off, is the waiting time still about 3 months for the cashback ?

I can't order from Samsung as they don't deduct the VAT for Channel Island residents, therefore I can't use the EPP which I wouldn't be eligible for anyway, can't claim the free buds or 15% Topcashback or the free case and charger and I don't have an expensive phone to trade in. So I've had to order from Amazon.
