Finance for full time carer

Beanssss — Thu, 20 Feb 2025 16:13:53 GMT

Does anyone know whether EE will accept a full time carer for EE finance?
A full time carer who receives benefits for caring isn’t unemployed, they give up work to care for someone and they shouldn’t be penalised for it.
Does anyone of a carer would be accepted?

@Beanssss Depends if you pass the credit check. Your not being penalised if you don’t it just means EE are not prepared to offer you credit. It’s your Credit history that’s taken in to account

How would you go about declaring you are a full time paid carer in the finance application? It’s not recognised as employment but you’re not unemployed. Credit history and monthly payments aren’t a problem at all

@Beanssss Under the Employment Status box you can select other, further on it will then ask for your income range for the credit check.
