Id like to get together user opinions of prices. If you could please PM me with what prices YOU WOULD PAY for debranding (including CDA changing so that SEUS updates your phone with unbranded firmware) and unlocking.
Before PMing me please bare in mind it takes 5 credits to unlock, whereas it take 1 to debrand. Therefore I would charge more to unlock than debrand.
Thanks all

Well, I've sent my PM. Let's hope we can get some sort of UK based de branding on the go

How much does it cost for 1 credit? I understand you'd want to make a small bit and cover costs and I think most people would be the same so knowing this we could asses a fair price IMHO.

Hey all!
Many thanks to all those who have PMed me.
I have had many different prices from the stupidly small price (me basically paying to do peoples phones!) to the extremely large (where I would feel guilty for charging that much).
Firstly I would say that £5 would be easily adequate for return P+P, that is of course using Royal Mail Special delivery. The phone would be sent back in the same packaging that it was received in, so if possible please make it easy to reuse.
The majority of people have come back to me with the following prices:
£5 for return P+P
£10 to debrand + P+P
£20 to unlock + P+P
£30 to unlock and debrand (P+P included)
Therefore I am going to stick with these prices. This is considering that some people said they would pay £30 just for a debrand! Sorry to the few that think these prices are too much, and to those that think they are too low, this is a bonus to you!
Some may argue these are too high, but please remember that it is not only the credit cost but also my time that has to be added in. I have to sit and flash the phones, perhaps unlock them and then go to the post office and send them back.
On a side note. I aim to receive the phone, flash/unlock it and send it back all in the same day. Therefore you should only be without your phone for 1 day. But please note, if I receive the phone on a wednesday (sent tuesday) I will be unable to send it back until thursday. It is your choice when you decide to send it but please note the turn around time.
Payment is to be made one of two ways:
Cash sent with the phone for the job and return P+P
PayPal with all fees covered, but return P+P costs to be put in with the phone. (payment must be sent before phone is received)
In the event that the payment is not made before the phone is sent, or the payment is not included in the package the phone will be left branded/locked and returned if the return P+P costs are with the package. If not the phone will be kept until funds have been received.
I also ask that your Esato username and return address be sent with the phone. Hopefully this will stop delays with returning the phone. And also allow me to PM the correct individuals with details on their phones status.
Please not that I do not wish to receive memory cards or sim cards with the phone. All I require is the phone and battery that is 100% charged. If this is not the case I may have to charge the phone meaning it takes longer for you to receive it.
If you have any questions dont hesitate to post here or PM me.
Thanks

I now have my credits.
I have only 10. First come first served. Bare in mind an unlock is 5 credits and a debrand is 1.
Thanks all.
