i am with BT and i ahve £300 excess usage charge, this is after one fiasco afetr another- and i pay a hefty £40 a motnh as it is for the broadband- enough is enough
so i want to go but the trouble is i tried to go with post office but they did a credit check on me and declined me- is this going to be the same everywhere?

has anyone else got a poor credit history-- like they are in debt but have managed to take out a broadband contract?

Vivaciti don't ,1 month rolling contract, thats who i'm with at the moment , llu unlimited package is £17.04 PM ,thats the one to go for .

I was in the same situation as yourself with a poor credit rating , you can pay with credit/debit card , probably pre paid cards etc .You don't have to set a direct debit up , once the card is linked to your account they will take the monthly payment from that.

Excellent UK based customer service and tech support via a 0800 number or through the website etc .

If you're signing up for a phone service, it's the norm for a credit check to be done as you're paying in arrears for your calls.

If you're just taking broadband, it's unlikely that a credit check would be done, as you usually pay in advance for the subscription.
