Does anyone know if it is possible to have to contract phones out in my name but to be paying for them from different bank accounts?
Only saying this because I am already on contract with Orange and my sister who is 16 wants to go on contract too. Are we able to put it in my name and have her pay for it from her bank?

Any help would be great!

Not sure, but if not couldn't she set up a direct debit into your account for the amount each month?

Yeah Ive done it for a mate before too - just be careful as if they fall into arrears or anything you will probably end up responsable

Yeah, that is what my parents said.
Thanks for the advice guys! I think I will pop into Orange tomorrow and see what they say.

My brothers ex girlfriend (being the thieving cow that she is) took super advantage of him.  She was 17 he was 18 at the time so set up a phone for her in his name which she never bothered paying for.  Shes a ratbag so it didnt surprise me but now hes had to pay off over 200 quid and risk getting bad credit.   I'd definitely only do it for family.

I'd never ever take out a contract for a girl in my own name. Just like I'd never share a credit card. Keep all that separate imo.

slightly different but along the same lines.

my new girlfriend has helped me out to the tune of nearlly £1k and hasn't asked for the money back. Obviously i'm going to pay her back asap but what i'm getting at is if we were to split tomorrow i'd still pay her back.

I can't imagine ripping someone off like that as it's cuntish and just not right.

Sorted it out today. It has got to come out of my bank untill next month, then I can change it over. I may keep it coming out of mine though, just in case she hasn't any money or something  so it doesn't affect my credit rating.
