You really don't know what they do with the Bank Card ?

Uhm nope. They clearly said they won't be doing a credit check

The card number is used to identify the purchaser - this automatically flags against the ID database and CIFAS. Think of it as a 'soft' check - but check they do.

They use the bank card for a credit check.

Check your bank statement. They would have taken 50p or something like that. They would have given it back to you at the end or something.

Buzby is correct.

ZhugeEX is right i have just took out a Sim only deal they checked my credit card and took 10p out.

I think all mobile network provider do the same check

Even the Carphonewarehouse did the same check when i took out a contract for my dd a couple of years ago.

The 10p/50p check is not a credit check in itself, it's a proof of ID where they check the name, address and postcode you've given is succsessful with a transaction, I.e matches up. But they will do a credit check, but you won't notice unless it gets referred and the shop assistant has to ring to get the result.

They won't be giving you 500+ quids worth of kit without checking you can pay it back first!

No drawbacks found yet, credit lasts indefinitely just like other PAYG.
