If you need a mobile phone but have been turned down, the likely reason is that you have a lower credit rating than the network is willing to accept. There are a a number of of things that can impact a person’s credit rating.
The first, and most obvious, is their history of repaying credit. If you have missed, or been late with a repayment, then this will have been recorded on your credit file. If you have multiple late, or missed payments, your credit score will have been impacted and this will make obtaining a contact phone very difficult.
All of the providers on our extensive mobile phone panel are slightly different, offering slightly different terms. That means we have a great range of smartphones that are available to you.
You can apply for cheap handsets like the Huawei Y7 through to premium handsets like the iPhone 11. You can even spread your repayments weekly or monthly. This gives you great flexibility in finding mobile phone deal that fits your budget.
Whether you are looking for just a SIM, or a new contact phone, Swiftys can help. Just complete our online application to get an instant decision for your mobile phone deal for bad credit.

I applied for a phone at the beginning of June. Because of my bad credit score I highly doubted that it would be accepted but I was so wrong. I applied for iPhone but based on my situation I was offered a Galaxy S9. Application was quick and easy, repayment plan suits my affordability. I can honestly recommend.
Got a phone even with bad credit.
To apply first time was a breeze just a few details and you are sorted, weekly or monthly repayments are easy as you don't need to do anything or you can save by repaying early which is what I did and I saved over £150 so I'd recommend giving Swifty's a go.
Got approved and paid his handset off early.
What a quick and easy process , great company , will use again for future phone deals.
