Sending a 'blacklisted' phone from Kos to England, will there be any issues with customs etc.?

Accepted answer
Find whatever paperwork you have proving ownership -- if you have the contract with your name and the phone IMEI that's best -- and call the customs office and ask. https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/hm-revenue-customs/contact/customs-international-trade-and-excise-enquiries
There's nothing we can say that avoids potential legal trouble. That's for the HRMC to do.

It is highly unlikely that there will be any problems because the phone is blacklisted by your provider. What does this even mean? The phone has been made unusable on cellular networks so that you will not incur charges from a possible thief using your data, calling expensive numbers etc.
If there are customs problems at all, they will be more likely in connection to the value of the phone and duty to be paid. In either case, you can show that it was bought in the UK by a receipt or contract with the IMEI and your name, and show you brought it with you on vacation (maybe have the hotel include such facts on a cover letter).
