Buying a mobile with a visa electron card

[vickypatters]

Im trying to get a contract mobile phone but im finding it hard as i have a Visa Electron card. Can you tell me if anyone will take them and if so who?

From what I remember no-one will accept em.

You need two forms of vaild i.d to prove your signature - passport or bank card (your bank card wont be accepted so use your passport) and to prove your address - bank statement, utility bill, credit card bill thats dated within the last 3 months.

The problem is that the account you have may not support direct debits so you will have to pay a monthly surcharge to pay over the counter/phone/net, by not subscribing to a dd the network have less guarentee that they will get their money from you.

Does this help?
