Well the only way you are going to know is to apply.
Did you apply some weeks ago and get accepted but had to pay a deposit?
Yes, that was for a £20 contract for the Nokia 5800. My credit report was 0 active accounts and 6 searches. Now I have 3 active accounts, 2 greens on all accounts and 12 searches. Not sure which is better, now or previous.0 -
