Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get Samsung Galaxy A16 on contract with bad credit?
There's no such thing as a guaranteed-acceptance contract - networks still run a credit check. What they're really assessing is how much you're financing: the handset cost spread over the contract. So cheaper handsets, lower monthly costs and shorter terms are all easier to be approved for. A no-upfront deal is the most affordable way in month to month - the cheapest Samsung Galaxy A16 contract with no upfront cost starts at £12.95 per month.
For the full picture, read our guide to getting a phone contract with bad credit.
Which Samsung Galaxy A16 deal is most likely to be approved?
Two things move your odds. A lower monthly cost shrinks the ongoing commitment - and, perhaps counter-intuitively, paying something upfront actually reduces the total amount you're borrowing, which can make acceptance more likely. No upfront cost is the easiest option on your wallet today, but if you can put a little down it lowers the total credit and can improve your chances. A shorter contract term helps too. Compare both the monthly and upfront cost of every Samsung Galaxy A16 deal below across all the UK networks.
What are my options if I'm declined?
A decline isn't the end of the road. You can still get Samsung Galaxy A16 without a credit check by buying it outright - compare SIM-free or pay-as-you-go prices - and a refurbished Samsung Galaxy A16 costs less to buy outright. You can also improve your odds over time by registering on the electoral roll and keeping existing payments up to date.
