Hi and welcome. I know when I was in my IVA I took out a new contract for my daughter with t-mobile with no problems, maybe someone has a more definitive answer for you so hang in there and do check back for any updates.
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.
It will come down to how much they want the business I'm afraid and their credit criteria.
IVA started March 2011, Completed March 2016 and certificate issued 11 days after final payment. It was not always easy but then some of the best decisions aren't.
As the mobile providers have, in recent years, undergone much migrating of contracts, merging and folding, it is difficult to tell who takes which view these days. Certainly, during my IVA, I updated with Vodafone as well as obtaining a new contract with T-Mobile with no issues at all.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014
I changed from t mobile to ee last year and when they went to do a credit check I nearly died and cringed with panic running through my veins. However, it came back that I could have two mobiles yo the value of £70 credit per month. I only wanted one phone with £23 credit per month but it is fair to say that I was bowled over to get a new phone with ee and an iPhone at that
Three would never give me a contract, I had to do it through my daughter. I still kept my O2 account though and had no problems upgrading at the end of my IVA.

I think if you are already with a company there is no problem with continuing, hopefully there won't be a problem with changing.

I changed from Virgin to EE in August 2014 - I went into the local EE shop and told them straight out that my credit was poor, and I passed whatever check they did without a problem. I was pleased with that as I got a 4G phone at £5 per month cheaper than I had been doing with a Blackberry.
Final payment 1st April 2016.
Completion Certificate received 19th May 2016.
