CeX: Tech & Games, Buy & Sell 4+

Good update but always loading…

When going back to a menu it really shouldn’t need to load again, it wastes time and feels clunky. Other than that I like the new design a lot, there’s just a couple of annoying things like having the nearest store always at the top even though I’ve selected my preferred store as a different one and can’t get to the store that’s technically closest to me; I should be able to dismiss this or it should change to my preferred store once selected. Also there are marketing push notifications that I can’t turn off in settings. That’s quite poor. Overall 4 stars, would change to 5 if these bugs were addressed.

The memory of a Gold fish

The app itself is solid as a shop. But it never remembers who you are from one day to the next. CEX tell you to reinstall the app if this happens, but that doesn’t help. Every time you start the app you have to go through the introduction of how to use the app. It never remembers your login details so you have to go through that process every time you open it. Has no copy/ paste at the login screen so you can’t save time on your details. The email reminders for items coming in stock rarely work. Went through my wishlist which is set up with email reminders yesterday and over two dozen items had been restocked and I’ve not been alerted about any of them.
CEX also needs to figure out something with their delivery charges because ordering multiple items and having to pay individual delivery charges on each item is ridiculous. You could buy 5 items that could be posted together for around £3.20 and end up paying 5x £1.95. It completely kills the idea of purchasing multiple low cost items as you end up paying way over the odds for them with the individual delivery charges. I get why they do it; because the items are at random stores. But that cost shouldn’t be passed on to the consumer.

Developer Response ,

Hey, your valuable feedback is really appreciated. Try uninstalling and reinstalling the app which should resolve the login issues as it could be due to the app not being on the latest version. However, if the issue persists, let us know via our support page here https://tinyurl.com/3hx9m7zp and we will be happy to help. Also, the items are sourced and delivered from different stores across the UK as per their availability so as per our policy, items valued up to £100 will incur a delivery charge of £1.95 per individual item. Any individual items purchased over the value of £100 does not incur a delivery charge.

Nice but a few issues

I’ve been using the app to save games and such that I like and I’ve never had any issues until today
Now when I open it on my phone the screen is just blank. I can still tap everything just fine but when I look in my shopping cart it only shows saved items and WeSell, no WeBuy. And if I go to one of the tabs at the side it’ll say Loading Products for a few seconds and only show a blank screen with the search bar
If I press the search bar to look up a game the searches won’t even show ether and I can’t sign in ether even though I’ve changed my password as well which made me to download it on the tablet which won’t even work there ether, it only shows just a blank white screen and if I tap on where the account option is it’ll only be a red screen or say that I need to check my connection

This has never happened to me before but I hope it’ll get resolved as the CeX app has been a timesaver for me
