I'm on Voda SIM only and have an absolutely shocking credit rating, but they accepted me no problem.

I have great credit however Vodafone hate me for some reason and always decline me.

I took out 2 contracts this week one with o2 and one with Orange (i'll send one back depending on signal) but Voda always decline me even tho i've never been a customer.

I appled for a Sim Only contract today with Orange and was refused.

try https://www.3minutemobiles.co.uk apply for a proper contract on orange, and then if its declined they will offer you sim only contract.

Ok, this seems a bit scary... What's the reputation of this company like? They say that they pretty much guarantee a 30 day contract to build up the rapour with the company. If I was accepted through them after 3 months would I be able to get a contract with Orange and not these people? The site gives answers but still seems a little vague...

Was it a 18 month sim only contract or 30 day rolling one? I passed for the 30 day rolling contract

If you go through 3minutemobiles is the contract actally through Orange or whichever company you choose?

I contacted 3minutemobiles.co.uk and they replied saying all I can do is apply and they will endeavour to get me a contract. My problem is is that there is no reviews of this site for reputation etc.

I'm just unsure if the contract would be through Orange or not it doesn't say on their site... not that I can see. I'm hoping someone will know something here.

Anybody used 3minutemobiles or similar companies? Are they reputable?

Orange let you move from sim only to contract with hardware after three months of payment on time - I know at one time Tmo used to allow this after six, but that was a couple of years ago
