Incomprehensible credit rating system
My wife and I went to the Telstra center to buy another new device. For information - 3 years bills are paid without any delay, 2 iphones each for 800 AU$ were paid in full. A third device, which has been charging for 7 months, was taken. We thought to take my wife's iphone, we watched 2 months ago the deposit was close to 300 eur, today we came to the center now we have to put a 600 AU$ deposit on the table, a little surprised, because nothing has been taken, but 300 AU$ has arrived yet. The bottom line is you can take 10 devices in installments, pay them off, be good and fluffy, but your credit rating will not improve but drop, everything will go the other way. I don't know why so but they obviously have an algorithm. In the end we got our iphone 11 pro, but now in another company... Devices in the future Vodafone will not be taken, it makes no sense to pay for equipment, pay bills if you increase the deposit amounts. It feels like we're on some credit reform list.
