Site Security at Discount Mobile Communincations?
Payment and order details are sent
to us across a secure connection that uses the
Data Encryption Standard in either single or
triple mode (56 or 168 bit strength respectively)
to encrypt orders sent from our website. The
emails are decrypted using a private key and
application that runs on the receiving computer.
This process ensures that emails that include
credit card details cannot be read en route
as they pass on their way to us. You can see
that the pages are secure because the address
in the address bar changes from being http://
to https://. You will also see a padlock symbol
or key in the bottom bar of your browser when
you are in a secure area. If you would prefer
not to send your details via our website you
can call us to place your order. Please call
0870 977 0786.

own Pre-Pay page.

you can order in confidence knowing that you

or T-Mobile customer and will be billed directly
by Orange, 3, Vodafone, O2 or T-Mobile for your
monthly charges.
Why a credit check?
When you use most mobile phones, you
make the call, run up a bill and then pay for
it later. Thus, a mobile phone is a form of
credit. Historically, mobile phone companies
were victims of wide scale fraud and so these
days they carefully check credit records of
all potential customers. The vast majority of
people, though, have nothing to worry about.
So long as you regularly pay your bills on time
and haven't defaulted on any previous credit
then you shouldn't have a problem.
