Hi

Can be very difficult due to credit checks. You could try your existing provider or a good pay as you go contract

Good luck

Regards

It depends on the provider -- I opened a T-Mobile ( as it was then) account during my IVA with no problem.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014

When I started IVA I was with Orange & have been able to change to Vodaphone & then O2.

I moved to a Virgin 2 year contract from 3. I had been on pay as you go for years with 3, and wanted to go on a monthly sim only contract which they wouldn't allow
getting there ....

Got there!!
IVA started 27/10/2010
final payment 27/10/2015
CC received 6/5/16
Off the register 5/8/16

We have stayed with the same company Vodafone but have managed to get it half price…we spoke with the 'saves department' and they can offer you a lot more than the normal renewal process. We have done this on all 4 contracts…paying a lot less than on payg and i know the kids will never run out of credit.

Same here - stayed with same companies but made sure contracts cost effective.
IVA started March 2011, Completed March 2016 and certificate issued 11 days after final payment. It was not always easy but then some of the best decisions aren't.
