   🎅 You have an old unread notification from Santa!

   700 million mobile phones unused in drawers across the #EU could make the perfect Xmas present for someone!

   Thanks to our new recommendations for EU countries, it is much easier to return phones, tablets, and laptops. They include:

   🔄 financial incentives to return devices
   🔄 tools to estimate the value of devices for buy-back
   🔄 easy ways to return and collect devices via postal services

   It is a win-win for us and our planet.
