Camera button not working

Condition on the website was listed as like new, but the camera button, on the right side, below the lock button, is unable to function.

Hi Qasim, We’re really sorry to hear about this - that’s definitely not the experience we want you to have, especially for a device listed as “like new.” This sounds like something we should review and resolve for you as soon as possible. Please reach out to us at [email protected] (or reply to your existing support thread) with your order details, and we’ll arrange for the appropriate next steps - whether that’s a repair or a replacement. Thanks for flagging this, and we’ll make sure it’s taken care of. -- Team Circular

Convenient to purchase without fuss but they just need authentic address to deliver the phone.

Hi Rosalind, Thank you for the 5-star review! 😊 We’re glad to hear the process was convenient and fuss-free for you. Yes, a valid delivery address is required to ensure the device reaches you safely and securely - we appreciate your understanding on that. Enjoy your subscription, and we’re here if you need anything! -– Team Circular

Highly not recommended.

For those who wished to use this subscription method, I would highly not recommend to do so. Better to use Cinch as you would be able to own the device after your subscription ends. From Circular, you would do better buying a new one. Caveat emptor! 21 March 2026 I have received a lengthy explanation from Circular about their policy of device buyback and subscribers acknowledging this policy upon subscribing. However, Circular should not expect customers to buy back a device at the original RPP. For example, I had used that device for 12 months and wished to buy it. The original RPP was $1,899. Total amount from a 12-month subscription was: (first month waived) 11 months*$94=$1,034. Therefore $1,034*50%=$517 $1,899+$517=$2,416 what I need to pay in order to buyback that device. This is too exorbitant! My suggestion was to use that trade-in price was rejected…. Better to buy a new device or subscribe to Cinch…

Hi Behn Tan, Thank you for your feedback. For clarity, Circular is not an ownership scheme and has never been positioned as one. It is a subscription model designed for customers who value flexibility, lower upfront costs, access to newer tech, and a more sustainable alternative as compared an outright purchase. Customers who want automatic ownership at the end of a fixed term may prefer a different product type. For others, Circular offers a different value proposition altogether - including the ability to subscribe without committing to full retail prices from day one. We believe it’s important that comparisons are made on the basis of different models serving different needs, rather than assuming they are the same product. Our terms, including the fact that ownership remains with Circular unless a Non-Return Fee Option is exercised, are disclosed during the customer journey. If your review relates to a specific experience with our service, we’d be happy to look into it if you contact us directly. -– Team Circular

Assistance of info

Thanks for assisting & provide me information as a first timer. As such kindly let me knw the next step

Reply from Circular2026-03-16

Hi Suhaidah, Thank you for sharing your feedback - we appreciate you highlighting this. Circular operates as a subscription (rental) model, where customers enjoy the device during the subscription term, with the option to purchase it later if they wish. We understand how this may feel confusing for first-time users, especially when encountering the service for the first time through a retail partner like Mister Mobile. Your suggestion about making the rental nature clearer on the installment selection screen is very helpful, and we’ve shared this feedback with our product team for review. In the meantime, our team would be happy to assist you with your request and walk you through the available options. Please feel free to reply to our support email so we can help resolve this smoothly. Thank you again for bringing this up. -- Team Circular
