Credit Checks. We or the retailer you purchase your SIM from may carry out credit checks where necessary to help us or the retailer confirm your identity and decide whether to accept your application. The credit check will include looking at our own and the retailers information (if you apply through a retailer that is not Virgin Mobile), the details you have given us, and registering and checking your information with credit reference agencies and fraud prevention agencies who will also check the details of anyone you are financially associated with – for example, people you may have a joint bank account with. You agree that we or the retailer may conduct these checks and also register information about you and the conduct of your account with any credit reference agency who will also record our search on their records. For the same reasons we may also perform subsequent credit checks whilst you retain a financial obligation with us. For the purpose of fraud prevention, prevention of money laundering, debt collection, credit management and emergency services purposes, information about you and the conduct of your account may be disclosed to credit reference agencies, debt collection agencies, fraud prevention agencies, security agencies, financial institutions, law enforcement agencies, emergency services organisations or other phone companies for example, when: checking details on applications and credit related or other facilities; managing credit and credit-related accounts and facilities; recovering debt; checking details of proposals and claims for all types of insurance; checking details of job applications and employees. Please write to Virgin Media’s Group Compliance Officer at Media House, Xxxxxxx Xxxx Business Park, RG27 9UP if you want to receive details of the relevant fraud prevention agencies. You have a legal right to these details.
