    I bought a REMOVEDVN-220 phone on April 10 2026 was told that it's 1000% Brand new, turns out it isn't {its refurbished} and has multipole technical problems (flip open is squeaky, not clear calls and more).I also added a picture where you could clearly see REMOVEDprinted on the back cover which is an obvious mistake of REMOVED

    Business Response

    Date: 05/04/2026

    We take this matter seriously and appreciate the opportunity to respond.
    First, we want to clarify that the REMOVEDVN220 devices we sell are new overstock units, meaning they have never been previously activated or used by an end user. These devices may be sourced directly from manufacturer surplus or carrier excess inventory. As such, they may occasionally ship in non-retail packaging, but they are not refurbished and are fully covered by our 1-year warranty.
    Regarding the concern about the labeling (UN220 vs. VN220), this is not an error. The REMOVEDVN220 is commonly associated with multiple internal model identifiers, including UN220. These markings are used by the manufacturer/carrier and do not indicate a different or refurbished product.
    As for the reported issues (squeaky hinge, call clarity), this is not typical and may indicate a defective unit. We stand behind our products and are fully willing to resolve this.
    The customer is covered under our REMOVEDreturn/exchange policy, and we have already offered the following options:
    A replacement unit at no additional cost, or
    A return for refund in accordance with our return policy
    We encourage the customer to contact us directly so we can issue a return authorization and resolve this promptly.
    Our goal is always customer satisfaction, and we remain ready to make this right.

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# REMOVED, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

    [our Answer Here]

    The answer regarding the model name is total nonsense, there is no such thing as wrong model names on part.

    regardless after using the phone for a few days it became even clearer that its a poorly refurbished product: the buttons frequently 

     double press,

    the phone doesn't flip close symmetrically (as noticable in picture).

    every part of the phones back that gets touched is scratched off.

    the places that are scratched off turn black as opposed to the originals that turn white (after years of wear).

    and that's all in addition to the flimsy squeaky flip I mentioned in my original complaint.

    I demand a full refund to the quick pay address I used to pay (By the way They made me Pay with quikpay or cash)

    Ordered phone in August. The phone that arrived was a different color. Was saved and given as a Christmas gift. Once activated, the phone glitches, freezes, and shuts off on its own at random times.Completely unusable

    Business Response

    Date: 12/31/2025

    Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We sincerely value every customer and always aim to ensure a positive experience.
    We would like to clarify our return and exchange policy:
    ElectronicsForce.com accepts returns and exchanges within 30 days of delivery, as clearly stated on our website at the time of purchase. This allows us to properly assess and process any issues while the product is still under our support period.
    In this case, the order was placed and delivered in August, and we were first notified of the issue after Christmas, which is unfortunately well beyond the 30-day return window. We understand this was a gift, and we are truly sorry to hear that the phone is experiencing performance issues, however the return period had fully expired by the time we were contacted.
    We would be happy to assist with manufacturer repair support if the device is still eligible.
    Please ask the customer to contact us directly at: REMOVED

    Electronics Force (electronicsforce.com) sold me an REMOVED-locked prepaid phone that was advertised and confirmed as a new unlocked device.On Nov 24, 2025, I purchased a new REMOVEDRazr+ 2025 (unlocked) from Electronics Force (order #REMOVED) for $502.43, including a $10.18 REMOVEDshipping fee, paid with my debit Mastercard. Before ordering their sales/customer service verbally confirmed it was new, factory-sealed, and unlocked. The listing never disclosed that it was carrier-locked or an REMOVEDprepaid device.?After 13 days, the phone arrived on Dec 7, 2025. When I inserted my SIM, the phone displayed network/SIM lock messages and would not accept other carriers. Using REMOVEDs official unlock portal with IMEI REMOVED, my request was denied with a message that it is an REMOVEDPREPAID device that must use the REMOVEDUnlock app (request REMOVEDon 12-21-2025). This confirms it is a locked REMOVEDprepaid phone, not the unlocked device advertised.?I contacted Electronics Force several times, provided screenshots and the REMOVEDdenial, and requested a refund or a truly new unlocked replacement. They repeatedly insisted it was unlocked, blamed me, and only after I said I would file a complaint did they offer a refund (require an REMOVED) and later said they would merely try to get an unlock code with no guarantee. If this were truly a new unlocked phone, I would not need an unlock code and it would not be classified as REMOVEDprepaid.?Advertising and selling a phone as new and unlocked when it is in fact an REMOVEDlocked prepaid device, then resisting a proper remedy, is unfair and deceptive under Massachusetts consumer protection law (Chapter 93A). Consumers are protected against false or misleading product representations that cause financial loss.?I am requesting a full refund of $502.43 for order #REMOVEDor a truly new, factory-sealed, unlocked REMOVEDRazr+ 2025 as advertised,including a prepaid return label mailed to my home address (I do not have a printer).

    Date: 12/28/2025

    Hello,
    Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience you experienced that is never the outcome we want for our customers.
    Our records show that the item was sold as an unlocked device based on the information provided to us by our supplier. We understand from your report that you are encountering a carrier lock, and we certainly want to resolve this for you as quickly as possible.
    We attempted to assist with the unlock process, but we fully respect your request for a refund instead. We are happy to provide a full refund upon return of the device so we may inspect and verify the issue with the REMOVEDprovided.
    To move forward, please provide us with the REMOVEDnumber currently displayed on the device and confirm the return address so we may issue a prepaid return shipping label to you right away. Once the item is received back in the same condition, we will process a full refund of $502.43 promptly to your original payment method.
    We appreciate you giving us the opportunity to make this right and look forward to your reply so we can complete the resolution.
    Thank you,

    Better Business Bureau:

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID REMOVED, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me and the matter has been resolved. They have also given me the unlock code for the phone listed in the complaint. After all the denial of selling me a locked phone, they no longer could deny after all the attached evidence that it was indeed a locked AT&T Prepaid phone that needed an unlock code. I am satisfied with receiving the unlock code, but I am still very disappointed with their customer service and all they put me through to finally get them to do the right thing. Thank you to BBB and I'm sorry I had to file a complaint and hope this will help other customers to do their due diligence before purchasing from Electronics Force.

    Sincerely,

    REMOVED

    I bought a Kyocera Pro3 cell phone from this business for $548.66. It was supposed to be a brand new device. Today I received the phone and it's not new. It is not only used but it came broken. I tried to call the business on the number listed online and nobody picks up. I left two voicemails.

    Hello,
    Thank you for your message.
    We have reviewed this order and would like to clarify that the purchase was fully refunded on January 6th to the original payment method used at checkout. No funds were retained by our company.
    Additionally, all Kyocera Pro3 devices we sell are 100% original and fully tested prior to shipment. However, once the concern was brought to our attention, the refund was processed promptly to resolve the matter.
    Please allow a few business days for the refunded amount to reflect on your account, depending on your bank or card issuers processing time.
    If you have any difficulty locating the refund on your statement or need further assistance, feel free to reply to this email and we will be happy to help.

    Purchased what was supposed to be the international version of a REMOVEDGalaxy Ultra 5G SM-G998B. I instead received the US carrier unlocked version REMOVED.This was purchased on August the 11th and I paid for overnight shipping. It didn't arrive until a week later and I still have not been refunded for my shipping.I reached out to their customer service department and proceeded to be yelled at by a customer service REMOVEDhung up on, and denied a return/refund.I checked out using Express checkout on their website and so I did not receive an email with my order number. They were however able to look up my order number by the last four of my credit card used for purchase. The last four digits are REMOVED. The name on the order is REMOVED.

    Business Response

    Date: 08/17/2025

    Dear BBB and REMOVEDsincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience this order has caused. We would like to address the concerns raised:
    Product Version
    The item shipped was a REMOVEDGalaxy Ultra 5G model REMOVED, which is the REMOVEDfactory-unlocked version. We acknowledge that REMOVEDexpected the international version SM-G998B. We regret the mix-up and understand the disappointment this caused.
    Shipping Delay
    The order was placed with overnight shipping selected. While we shipped promptly, unfortunately, carrier delays extended the delivery time. Regardless, the expedited shipping fee should have been refunded due to the delay. We will issue a full refund for the shipping cost to REMOVEDoriginal payment method.
    Return/Refund Process
    We want to clarify that customers are always entitled to a return when the wrong version of a device is shipped. Our standard process requires a return authorization (RMA) so that we can properly track and process refunds. We regret if this was not clearly explained or if the interaction with our customer service team was less than professional. That does not reflect our company values, and we will review this internally to ensure it does not happen again.
    Next Steps for Resolution
    We invite REMOVEDto return the device at no cost using a prepaid return label we will provide. Once the item is received back in our facility, a full refund for the purchase (including shipping) will be issued promptly. If preferred, we can also exchange the device for the correct international version.
    We value all our customers and regret that this experience fell short of expectations. Please rest assured that we are committed to resolving this matter quickly and respectfully.

    I placed an order for a new mint Galaxy Note. I received a blue USED Galaxy Note. When I emailed the business they responded with "Send it to this address". Did not even make it clear if I would even get a refund. After reading the "good" reviews closer, they are duplicated. Other people said they sent their incorrect items back and never received a refund.

    To Whom It May Concern,
    Thank you for the opportunity to respond to the complaint regarding the return of a REMOVEDFolder 2 phone for order #REMOVED.
    We confirm that the customer requested a return, and we approved it accordingly. However, despite the customers claim that the item was dropped off at our office on June 25 at 11:55 AM, we have no record of receiving the device. The customer did not obtain or provide any proof of delivery, such as a signed acknowledgment or a photo showing the drop-off, which is required for in-person returns.
    Our return policy clearly advises customers to use a trackable shipping method to ensure delivery confirmation. This protects both the customer and our business from miscommunication or disputes. Since no package was received, and there is no supporting documentation, we must conclude that the merchandise was never returned to us.
    Furthermore, our internal records show no evidence of the item being received, logged, or matched to this order. No refund can be issued for merchandise that was not returned.
    We take customer service seriously and made good faith efforts to follow up, including offering to check security footage. Unfortunately, due to the lack of identifying details and the time elapsed, we could not verify the customer's claim.
    To summarize:
    A return was authorized.
    The merchandise was never returned to us.
    No refund is due.
    Should the customer provide any credible evidence showing the return occurred, we are more than willing to revisit the matter. Until then, we must stand by our position.
    Sincerely,
    REMOVED

    [Your Answer Here]

    Subject: Urgent Rebuttal Regarding Order #REMOVEDRequest for Immediate Refund

    Dear ElectronicsForce Customer Support Team,

    I am writing in response to your recent message concerning the return of my REMOVEDFolder 2 phone under order #REMOVED. I must respectfully but firmly disagree with your conclusion that the merchandise was never returned. I complied with your instructions when I dropped off the phone in person at your Brooklyn office on June 25 at 11:55 AM, as confirmed in our email correspondence. The approval of the in-person return and your subsequent request for the phones password are clear indications that you recognized the return process was underway. It is unreasonable to place the entire burden of proof on me when you, as the receiving party, agreed to an alternative method one that inherently relies on your own internal processes to document the transaction.

    I understand that your standard return policy recommends using trackable shipping to ensure proof of delivery. However, in this instance, I acted in good faith by following a mutually agreed-upon procedure. Our prior correspondences confirm that you accepted my drop-off at your office and that I would not need additional tracking information for this return. It is therefore concerning that your records do not reflect a receipt of the merchandise despite my compliance. This lapse in internal documentation does not invalidate my claim; rather, it indicates a potential deficiency in your handling and logging of in-person returns.

    Moreover, your previous offer to review security camera footage for the drop-off time further supports the likelihood that evidence exists to confirm my return. Instead of focusing solely on the absence of a physical signature or photo, I urge you to consider the totality of the documented communications between us. My prompt submission of the phones password at your request is a further demonstration of my intention to complete the return process as agreed. I respectfully request that you re-examine your internal records and security footage from June 25 at 11:55 AM to verify the drop-off.

    In light of these facts and our mutually documented agreement, I insist on an immediate refund of $200 for the returned REMOVEDFolder 2 phone. If a resolution is not forthcoming, I will have no alternative but to pursue further action through the appropriate consumer protection channels, including escalating the matter with the Better Business Bureau.

    I trust that you will review this matter diligently and ensure that the refund is processed without further delay.

     In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.


    Sincerely,

    REMOVED

    I purchased a REMOVEDGalaxy S22+ - 128GB - Phantom REMOVEDcell phone from the Electronics Force store and received a black used phone. A different phone than the one purchased, and worse it was used. The ad in the website never mentioned it was a used product. I want to return the product and receive a full refund, but the store charges me a 15% restocking fee and I refuse to pay it because I think it's unfair. It was an error on them. Therefore I want to get the full money spent on the purchase back.Order Nr. #REMOVEDDate of the purchase: May 27, 2024 Amount: USD REMOVED

    I received the wrong phone (ordered an unlocked phone, received a REMOVEDphone) from Electronics Force in December 2023 and reached out to them on 12/26/23, requesting an exchange for the product I had ordered (order #REMOVED). After confirming the REMOVEDnumber and my order information, they agreed to send me the correct phone once I returned the phone I initially received with reimbursement for my shipping costs ($10.40) on 1/2/24. However, once they received the phone, they proceeded to only refund me the full cost of my purchase without notice, told me that a replacement phone was not available despite accepting new orders for the same product on their website, and did not reimburse me for my shipping costs. When I reached out to them about reimbursement of my shipping costs, they replied on 1/17/24 that it would be refunded by the next billing cycle. When I followed up at the end of the month on 2/1/24, they would not confirm any reimbursement and told me instead to contact their billing department. I am submitting this complaint because, as of 2/3/24, I have still not received any reimbursement for my shipping costs and had to contact them multiple times at each step to even get my original purchase refunded when they sent me the wrong product to begin with.

    Better Business Bureau:

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# REMOVED, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

    While I did receive a refund for the original purchase itself, I have not yet received the refund for the additional shipping cost ($10.40) for sending back the cell phone to the company when I was sent the wrong product.

     

     

     

     

    In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.


    Sincerely,

    REMOVED

    I ordered a new phone from Electronics Force. REMOVEDcreated a shipping label but REMOVEDhad no record of the phone actually being mailed to me. Seller assured me it was mailed. After several weeks I decided to cancel the order. After requesting cancellation the seller evidently shipped the phone. I refused delivery and never came into possession of the phone. I received only a partial refund. REMOVEDrefused to issue a full refund.
