Is a new mobile contract possible

Options
Both myself and partner are in the process of going onto an IVA (for which thanks to this site and the forums for guidance).
A question that occurs though is once on it will there be any problem renewing a mobile contract or changing to a different network as the bills for the old one will have continued to be payed under the arrangement.

  • probably not get a contract when defaults are registered. Pay as you go will be fine.

  • What network are you with?

    Vodafone don't really mind, well they did not with me.

    With O2 and Orange you can get a new phone or change contract after a period of paying the phone bill on time. I think its 3 months with either PAYG or monthly contract - or at least it was for me with loads of defaults and a DMP.

    You'll be able to renew existing deals with your provider on the same account without an issue. If you're wanting to get a new account youll likely have to go sim only for a few months - or just not have the latest phone.
