Hi All

How likely do you think I am to pass a credit check with talkmobile. I have a few defaults but no CCJ's or anything too bad. i'm only after a cheap £7.50 phone deal. Im currently with Tesco 12 month sim only which expires 1st August 2013. But the phone needs replacing. Thought id ask here before applying as I know getting rejected effects credit rating

Thanks

    When i applied with Orange for a £55pm contract I had 1 CCJ and 6 Defaults and they accepted me without deposit.

    You should be OK, if you are rejected, try a SIM only 30 day rolling for 3 months then upgrade to a contract with a handset.

    Also, IMO TalkMobile are quiet expensive for Pay Monthly, try Tesco Mobile! :)
