When you try and purchase the phone a credit check will be performed.

If you 'pass' you can purchase the phone. If you 'fail' you cannot.

Otherwise, you can pay in full without credit.

@charley15

I would assume it was asking if you are OK of they run a credit check on you as this has to take place before you can complete the order. The reason being is that Sky needs to know that if they give you a new phone that you have the ability to pay it off over the length pf the contract.

Without previous credit etc. it may be difficult...
