Sub Prime Credit Thread Part II

TheEffect

I just applied for an iPhone 3G £35/month 24month contract. We'll see what happens. If I get declined.. that's all my credit applications for a long time.

I can't Dave. They keep telling me to get lost. LOL

They told me to get lost when I tried for a mobile broadband with laptop the other month.

Littlewoods also frequently tell me to get lost

No, they said they couldn't find me on Equifax.

Just phoned o2 and... THEY ACCEPTED ME for the iPhone contract. Phone will be dispached via DHL and be here Thursday. Yippeeee... last month I couldn't even get a £20 18 month contract, now I've got a £35 contract. :rotfl:

I just got accepted for an iPhone 3G contract too. I'd hazard a guess that I have the lowest credit score any of you have ever even heard of. I was fully expecting o2 to demand a deposit or to turn me down, but they accepted me with no problems.(I'd heard that credit scoring for the iPhone was especially stringent and that loads of applicants get asked to pay a deposit)

hi guys,

hope your all ok. does anyone know if i can get added to the electoral roll at my old address for the period i lived there? i've been here since october and am on electoral role but wasnt there and think if i could get added for that period, it would make getting credit easier?

thannks.

No you can't be added to the ER at an old address; only at your current one.
