Hi @melissa2 you will need to apply for a contract and o2 will assess you. 

You may be asked for a deposit which is refunded after 3 months of on time payments or you may be flatly refused, but no one will know until you apply. 

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

@melissa2Or if EE give you a decent signal you may want to try them. A friend of a friend applied last week

Their credit rating is more than poor and they were accepted over the phone immediately.

Hi Wave @melissa2 and welcome to O2 Community Forum...! where friendy people like you will make you smile...! smiling

I agree with @MI5 ... I was with EE once in the same situation as you, 24 month contract they asked me to pay six months upfront and for the following 18 months I was paying with monthly direct debit...

All the best to you...! fingers_crossed 

Let us know the outcome...! smiling
