Hi there,
I am trying to find out if I need money in my account when I decide to get a Like New Phone. I will be getting one with no upfront cost. Kind Regards.
Solved! Go to Solution.

If you're placing the order online, even with no upfront cost, you'll need to have at least £1 available in your bank/credit card account as part of the security/verification check which forms part of the credit scoring process. It's mostly to check ID and to confirm the card details, and is never actually debited just authorised and then refunded in my experience.
Not sure whether the same is true in store or not, but would expect it to be over the phone as orders are processed in a similar way.
