Buy phone outright V contract.

You're right you have to register but once done you can do an initial soft eligibility check with then.

Not sure about paying immediately as they also offered 12 months interest free so I'm putting the money in a cash ISA (every little helps as they say 😂) for now and will pay later when it suits me.

Ordered on Saturday and phone despatched yesterday so quite impressed so far.

Thanks for getting back to me, can I ask, if you take out interest free credit will It look bad on possible future credit?
I don't need credit but like you, I will use it if it makes me some cash along the line. I have just got a 20 months interest free purchase CC so was going to get the phone on that.

Sorry, only just spotted this. My answer would have been unless you are planning a significant application shortly my view is it shouldn't have a negative impact if you have a healthy credit history. 

But probably irrelevant now as the phone on Very has gone up to £559 now.

Yes I took too long thinking, and now missed that deal. Going to sit on it and see if price drops again over next few months. Thanks for your comments.
