Pay As You Go is the Solution For Defaulters


Credit Scores or Credit Rating are considered as one of the most important matters of concern in US. Many people are afraid of being a victim of low credit scores, as it affects their life drastically. It affects your financial profile in such a way that it becomes difficult to apply for a loan may it be any kind of loan, apart from unsecured loans. It not only influence your financial portfolio but also makes it difficult to avail services which requires impressive or above average credit history. One of the appropriate examples is the mobile phone industry.

In US, there are cellular phone service providers that offers several plans which differ in many aspects, particularly cost. These service providers set certain criteria to allow people to avail the service. Such criterions are always noticed with schemes belonging to post paid method or in simple words billing system. Billing systems are nothing but methods in which you pay your bills only after utilizing the service for a month. You receive your phone bills on monthly basis, in monthly order, on a particular billing date. There may be basic level plans which allow a person with bad credit to avail the service but most of the high costing plans are not giving to such in debt customers.

This is done as the companies fear that such defaulters may not be able to pay the bills on time. There may be some service providers who offer schemes to such defaulters regardless of credit scores; however these companies may lay down some obligations that should be obeyed. There are many big players which operate in the United States of America, for example Sprint Nextel, AT&T Mobility, Revol, and Blue wireless etc. Most of such mobile service providers may peep into your credit scores. If you have a bad credit rating then it may keep you away from the services that these big players offer.

So it can be concluded that having good credit ratings is also important for availing good mobile phone service. This does not mean that people with bad credit rating cannot enjoy the privileges of mobile phones. People with unacceptable credit scores can take the advantage of prepaid services or 'pay as you go' schemes. These types of services are good as you can refill you account as and when required and then use the amount that you have deposited in your phone account.
