Phone contracts for loan
Hi, I'm 19 years old. I've got no credit history. I applied for a loan of £4000 a week ago but got denied.
I really need the money so I was thinking if I took out 10 iPhone 4S contracts for £46 per month I would be able to sell off all the phones and use it as a 24 month loan.
£46 * 24 * 10 = £11,000
Would this be possible?

A great plan, I can see no drawbacks or problems here at all. When you get released, I'd go for it.
