Upon submission of the application for credit to Premium Credit Ltd, they will search the public
information that a credit reference agency holds about the policyholder. The credit reference agency
will then add details of the search to the records they hold about them, whether or not the
policyholder proceeds with the application. This and other information may be used to make credit
decisions about the policyholder, and undertake checks for the prevention and detection of money
laundering.
If the application is successful, the policyholder will receive correspondence direct from Premium
Credit, which will collect the instalments on our behalf.
Please note that all insurance companies who provide Direct Debit must adhere to these rules and
carry out credit searches. By applying to pay the premium by Direct Debit, the policyholder consents
to the search being made.
