in Credit cards
I have a lot of credit searches on my file and i want to go on a sim only plan that is a 30 day rolling contract, what kind of checks do they do and is it likely that i will get rejected for having so many searches, by the way the company is vodafone, are they as harsh with credit scoring as credit card companies?
any help is much appreciated

My hubby applied and he has an old default on his files but got a decline! bit shocked really, that was afew month's ago though.
The thing with a sim only deal, even though there is no phone, you could still run up a large bill. They checked with Experian.
I've heard T Mobile maybe the easier and they check with Equifax.0 -
Just get an O2 sim then after a few months of behaving yourself phone them and tell them you want to jump to a Simplicty deal.

Make sure you register the SIM online with all your correct and full details. This will mean a smooth move from PAYG to a monthly deal.0
