Contract with bad credit

lankybogger

Hi, does anyone know where I could get a contract even though I have a bad credit rating. I have tried lots of sites like the ones on Quidco and the Utility Warehouse but no use so far. Are there any others?

Cheers.

i had poor credit(plus had been working outside the UK) and ended up paying a 100 pound deposit held for the 6 months of the contract with orange
after that i use my orange account number to get new contracts without credit checks

how bad is it? sometimes they will offer you a contract with a deposit (usually around £100 i think) which you get back either after x months, or at the end of the contract.

I've not got great credit - o2 refused me but vodafone and 3 accepted me. And i've heard that T-Mobile are really strict these days, so probably stay away from them.

It is the network that credit checks you not the retailer/shop so it doesn't really matter where you get it from.

The only way to really know is to place an order and try - but don't try too many times coz this'll make it worse!
