    Hey @MatthewDean Happy almost Birthday! Gramps28 is right; prepaid does not require a credit history at all. Our postpaid accounts do require a credit check, but no credit does not mean you are out of luck. There are some situations that require a deposit, but it is hard to say when that is exactly because it depends on the a few different factors. You never really know if you will require a deposit or how much it will be until you run the credit, but I will say that the need for a deposit is less frequent than getting an account without it.
