Yes. Every handset and tablet we sell is network unlocked so you can pop in any SIM and get started straight away. During refurbishment we remove old data, reset the software and confirm the device activates on all major UK networks before it is listed for sale.

Every Envirofone purchase includes a 12-month warranty as standard. Our technicians run a 70-point check so we're confident your tech will perform like new, but if anything goes wrong in the first year we'll repair or replace it for you.
