Cutting Costs and Carbon: The Smart Business Case for Refurbished Smartphones

In the last 18 months, by purchasing 590 refurbished smartphones instead of new ones, a total of approximately 44,356 kg of CO2 emissions have been saved by Billmonitor. This represents a significant reduction from the 49,560 kg of CO2 that would have been emitted if new devices were bought, down to about 5,204 kg with refurbished devices. This demonstrates an emissions savings of around 89.5%.

“In the next few years, older mobile networks will gradually be switched-off to make way for faster, more reliable services.
But some people will need help upgrading their devices during this process. So we’ve told mobile networks what they should do to make sure support is available to those who need it.”
- Selina Chadha, Ofcom’s Director of Connectivity

Ofcom’s expectations of mobile providers for 2G and 3G switch-off Ofcom has today set out what it expects from mobile providers when they switch off their 2G and 3G networks. The switch-off will happen over the next ten years and support the roll-out of 4G and 5G networks, which offer faster and more reliable services for customers.

Congratulations to Billmonitor NED Sally Dicketts, who was made a Dame in the New Year Honours List 2023 for her ‘services to education’.
