PostHeaderIcon How much credit history do I need to get a mobile phone on contract?

Hi

I am trying to get a mobile phone on contract. As I had no credit history I started paying with a credit card, repaying everything every month. I have been using my credit card for a couple of months now.
Do I have enough credit history now or should I keep using my credit card? For how long?
Thanks

i didn’t have a credit history when i go my first contract as long as your over 18 your fine.
and don’t go to anywhere house as they wont give you a credit scores go straight to the network shops. my first contract was with virgin which was really excellent but if i was you shop around you may have to pay a small but shop around I’m now on o2 on line which is £20 a month which is excellent its the new simcity one :)
