    Good question, I checked the t&cs and I couldnt see anywhere where it said they did a credit check but would be good to know for sure.
    shouldnt affect any credit ratin as its a pre payment scheme , not credit
    thank op ordered for me and hubby

    Hmmmmm........

    the details

    When you apply for Orange Cash we’ll need to verify your identity against the information you’ve supplied, so we know it’s you. If it’s not possible to do a full ID check, we’ll set your card at a reduced spending limit, with a maximum spend of £1,600 a year. Up to £600 of this can be withdrawn from ATMs. If you have a reduced spending limit you cannot top up your card using a debit or credit card and your maximum spending limit per single transaction is £600.

    ok so how do you activate the card?

    In 3 simple steps you’ll be ready to start using your card:
    1. Activate your card

      Remove your card and sign it.
      Underneath your card you will find a unique activation code.
      Call 311 from an Orange phone or 020 8264 8311* from any other phone.
      We’ll give you a 4 digit PIN (Personal Identification Number) over the phone – just commit this to memory.
      * standard charges apply
    2. Register your card

      Click on the log in button from this site or click here and follow the instructions.


    the 3rd step is loading it with money. but you should have £5 on it. :)

    There seems to be a problem with some browsers - try Firefox. :)

    No, as the minimum age is 13 so it can't be related to credit in anyway.

    Thank you - have ordered for me and hubby with the intention of sticking in the glove box of the car for those 'caught short of petrol' moments - will be enough to get us back home at least.

    Thank you MD :) Ordered one for my daughter and myself. I think the £10 is £5 for the actual card, and £5 worth of wonga :)
    yep thats how it worked last time, sometimes they send a resrtictd card wich needs £5 to upgrade but the restricted one works ok
