Hi,

I've recently been looking at new pay-as-you-go phones and at least two retailers - Carphone Warehouse and Phones 4 U - said something about they would only accept payment for the handset by credit or debit card ?

I was able to buy a phone from Argos using cash no questions asked.

Just curious as to why they have bought in this restriction and how long they have been doing it for.

Thanks,

Steve.
