Sometimes it seems that it can be more difficult getting hold of the mobile phone you would like than it is to get a mortgage. The problem is that the mobile phone companies have tightened their credit scoring processes over the years and it seems like you have to have a perfect credit score in order to qualify.
Often applying direct is more successful because the way the mobile phone market operates is that all the high street retailers such as Carphone Warehouse or the Link or even supermarkets like Tesco are providing handsets which are going to work on one of the major mobile phone networks. So if you go direct to the major mobile phone companies they make more profit so they can afford to take a different view when credit scoring for people with poor credit records who are looking for contract phones.
