Either obtain a cosigner, or go the prepaid route. Straight Talk was a halfway decent service for me, and you got unlimited talk, text, and data for $45/month. Much cheaper than what I pay now for Verizon.

If you are looking to get a cell phone plan, having poor credit may require the cell phone company to collect an upfront deposit from you. Not paying your cell phone bill on time will go on your credit report with unsatisfactory results. However, always paying your cell phone bill, and always paying it on time will not get reported to the credit bureaus; and thus will not positively affect your credit.
