Hi. New member here. I was born in the UK and lived here till 1992, when I moved to work and live in Germany. I returned to the UK in December 2019 and have lived here since. When I look into applying for a monthly SIM deal, it asks for 3 years of UK address history. Is this 3 continuous years, or would it also take into account the many years I lived here prior to moving abroad? Thanks in advance.

Hi
It would refer to 3 years UK address history in the past 3 years.
If you returned to the UK in 2019 and lived here since you should be able to enter the address since then.

Hi Kash,
Thanks very much for your reply. I returned to the UK in December 2019Â and itâs now April 2022, so strictly speaking, Iâve only been here 2 years and 4 months. Or would 2019-2022 somehow count as 3+ years?

I think youâll need to wait until Dec-2022 to have requisite 3 years of UK address history.
A 3 year history seem to be the standard period used by all credit reference agencies.
If you get an iD PAYG SIM, then no credit checks required - setup a recurring payment method to make the plan equivalent to a pay monthly SIM.
