When trying to checkout ordering a pay as you go sim, why does your website ask for 3 years address details and date of birth etc. This information shouldn't be needed as pay as you go sims should not involve a credit check?

If I purchase the pay as you go sim card in store or on currys website or ebay store then would that be a way to order without having to provide this information?

Can two PAYG sims be ordered in the same order?

Hello @acuk,

Your best option, to avoid any unnecessary credit checks, would be to purchase a PAYG iD SIM from a Currys or Carphone Warehouse store. 

And if you buy in-store, then you can buy as many PAYG SIM cards as you like.

Good luck.

Hello @acuk 

A credit check is not required when buying a Pay and Go SIM card. We require the details of address and date of birth as an internal check is ran when placing orders with us, this is not the same as a credit check and has no impact on your credit file.

 

Thanks
