To smooth out this process,
Three UK has revealed that it'll soon introduce pre-credit checks to give potential customers "an indication" of whether they'll pass a credit check "without negatively affecting" credit ratings.</p> <!--break--> <p>Users will be asked to enter their name, address and date of birth before being given a likely yea or nay for their desired subscription. The main advantage of this approach is that a full credit check wouldn't be carried out, which could adversely affect the customer's credit rating.</p> <p>Three is taking feedback on this new approach over on its website, including asking users if they'd consider taking out a rolling SIM-only plan for three months to build their credit score, and whether they'd consider paying a higher amount up-front (and less per month) for their chosen package.</p> <p>Source:
