couldn't tell you.. i've been looking on here for ages and never get a helpful reply.. someo of the bigger companies will give you a contract but ask for a bond (so to speak) up front.. wouldn't risk asking to many ppl for a credit check thou as if it comes back and they don't approve you it goes on your record as a bad mark !!
there's always https://www.utilitywarehouse.co.uk which is listed a bit on this site but there contracts are anything up to 36 months and they don't offer much in the free mins/txt dept..
if you do find anything please let me know..
have you thought about asking someone else to take one out for you ?0 -
In my experience, if your history is really poor, and you don't mind the service, then 3 are the guys to go for.
I had one customer, who'd taken out 8 contracts from various stores all on three, within 2 months (and who wasn't paying).
One of my staff members ran another credit check :rolleyes: and he passed....even when I called 3 to alert them of potential fraud/bad credit they just said they'd keep on passing him until given a reason otherwise!
Hope this helps:cool: Proud DFW Nerd 135 :cool:Sealed Pot Challenge - 0190
