Do you need credit to get approved?
No. You do not need credit to open a TELUS Postpaid Mobility account. By creating an account and paying your bills on time each month will actually build you credit very fast. For those who have zero credit, you may notice a few restrictions such as the ability to get premium phones for $0 upfront, or you may only be able to activate 1 line on your account, but cant add a tablet etc. Once the account is created, the agent will be able to provide you the details of what you can, and cant do. After 6 months or a year of good payment history, you will gain access to more features.
I don't have a credit card, can I still create an postpaid account?
Yes you can. We will require 2 of the 3 pieces of ID.
- Drivers Licence Number
- Social Insurance Number
- Credit Card.
Hopefully that answers your questions and concerns 🙂
