FAQs

Phones on finance, answered.

Everything people ask us about phones on finance, no credit checks and flexible payments.

Can I get a phone on finance with no credit check?+

Yes. Every plan featured on Phones On Finance is a no-credit-check finance option, so there's no hard search on your credit file when you apply.

Can I get a phone on finance with bad credit?+

Bad credit doesn't automatically disqualify you. Because there's no traditional credit check, applications are assessed on current affordability rather than credit history — so people who've been refused elsewhere are often still approved.

How do the flexible payments work?+

The total is split across equal flexible payments so you know exactly what you'll pay. Nothing hidden, nothing bolted on at the end.

Can I choose my payment schedule?+

Yes. Most handsets are available on flexible payment plans. Choose the schedule that suits your budget.

Is this a phone contract or a finance agreement?+

It's finance for the handset only — not a network contract. There's no airtime, minutes or data included. Use your own SIM (or grab a fresh PAYG one) and swap networks whenever you like.

Do I need to pay anything before my phone arrives?+

For most handsets nothing is required in advance — the first flexible payment is taken on delivery. Higher-value phones may require a small first payment before dispatch.

How quickly will my phone arrive?+

Once approved, most orders are dispatched the same day and arrive on free next-working-day delivery across the UK. Handsets ship unlocked and ready to use.

What happens if I miss a payment?+

You'll be contacted to arrange a new date — a single missed payment isn't the end of the world. Repeated missed payments may add charges, so it's important the plan is affordable before you apply.

Can I settle the finance early?+

Yes. You can settle at any time by paying the remaining balance, and you'll own the phone outright straight away.

Do you offer refurbished phones on finance too?+

Yes. Refurbished iPhones and Samsung handsets are available on the same no-credit-check flexible payment plans — a solid option if you want a flagship phone without the flagship outlay.
