Hi,
I was wondering if anyone ever managed to get a mobile phone contract after bankruptcy? Or easier but a decent phone and going PAYG?
Cheers

I've kept my Simplicity account all through bankruptcy, but I never owed O2 anything. Hopefully they may consider me for a new iPhone in Decembner. I'll have had a credit clean up and been discharged for over a year by then....
But you never know, they may knock me back. They seem to be very hit and miss.0 -

You will be fine as they do not credit score for an upgrade as you are an existing customer
