Will there be any credit checks with contracts or phones bought with giffgaff?

How to find out if credit checks are carried out when buying a new plan or phone with giffgaff.

Written by Andy

We like to make things easy for you, so in most cases, we won’t be doing any credit checks.

We'll only carry out a credit check if you buy a phone on a contract with a loan. This is carried out by Klarna, on our behalf.

We won't run a credit check if you're buying a phone outright.
