Mate it is a easy way of adding some more green zeros to your credit file !! Basically it is a sim only contract with 'three', however there is no monthly line rental what so ever, you just pay for what you use every month:D so basically if you take this contract and say just use it for say 10p for the first month, basically just to activate the sim, then it is reported to our credit file as a full contract , how ever the plus point being you don't pay nothing every month ofcourse , unless you use it to make calls or send texts !!

Re comment - I was saying please don't do a payday loan - they are a rip off :mad:
Yes mate 3 indeed do a search for this , however with 3 even some one with a trashed credit file can pass for their full contract too, they are like these bunch of payday cowboys, desperate for anyone who is ready to tolerate their toally crap network :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Mate about the paydayuk thing , asked ya because they advetise in their site that if ou settle their loan in time ' it might help in improving your credit score', so was wondering if they report to the cra's !!
However mate if you go through quidco, you can make money with paydayuk for the first loan that you take out through them !!
e.g. if one takes out a 80 pound loan through paydayuk , and pays it off at the end of the term then the total payable is 100 quid, which is the 80 pounds priciple + 20 pounds interest, and through quidco they do a cashback of 50 pounds !! so you make like 30 quid for free !!0 -

LOL, cant see anything about zero - just a normal PAYG
Payday loans are not great mate - maybe they have started to report (didn't know this - i'll speak to Lee Hancock at Experian later and find out and confirm)...
But the cashback sounds ok, a free £30 aint bad is it - however, surely it would be so easy (and tempting) to keep using the service - as people say, once they see how easy it is then there is no stopping them (whenever they are skint - they apply).... not me though, thanks though matey2010 - year of the troll
