Annie1969 please take a look at my thread http://www.moneysupermarket.com/community/forums/t/ucc-loanscouk-38194.aspx as it has a great deal in connection to yours, my details were passed to UCC by A&L without consent, there is more detail in the thread, I hope this helps.

Thanks for the update, annie - much appreciated.

If you'd like me to look into your journey through our site, please don't hesitate to drop me a line at the email address below. Do let us know how you get on.

Dear All,

Thank you very much for all your replies. I intend to take the matter up with A&L and will make a formal complaint. As my loan was declined then it should have been A&L contacting me to inform me of this not 'A Another' in this case UCC. It is certainly not my intention to place blame, just an explanation as to why UCC were passed my details without my permission.

Roly- Asking questions is not an allegations....criticisms of the questions in my experience is normally assocated with coverups?

They look very much like unfounded allegations to me.!

seems moneymakingsupermarket.con sell data onto whoever......commissions and payments from enquiries....if caught call it technical errors?

Moneymaking.com just the avaneu for data sales then....no checking of those paying to use the site....justtake the dosh....?

Poor customers having data sold around the world from an enquiry?

Many thanks for the observations of me...I had not realised the limitations allowance of other issues from another Financial Services area? However,...I quote

Today I applied online via this website for a loan of £12,000 with Alliance & Leicester to consolidate two credit cards.Today I applied online via this website for a loan of £12,000 with Alliance & Leicester to consolidate two credit cards. I received a call from a company called UCC advising that the application with A&L had been declined and they would attempt to find me an alternative. After going through all the details I had already put on the online application with someone I could barely understand

duty of care to ensure data protection IS in place?

Anyhow, Data Protection fine for the BNP leaker was only £200?...why worry if leaks happen?

I wonder through what connection the enquiry for the loan was made through then....with no data being passed on .......there would be no data feeds to close?

Cures and preventions are like cartys and horses ..one follows the other until disconnected?

Due dilligence....up front confirmations of what is not done .....as all know ...all aspects of the Financial Services Trade appear somewhat akin to get away with what you can until your caught...pensions, endownments mortgages sub-prime lending, penalty charges by banks, third party capture or.... until it all comes tumbling down.....making sure you take all you can with you so tax-payers fund the business for bonus payments 12 months later......or is it me?

I had a quick check online, many lenders appear to point rejected loan applicants to UCC. So I believe annie will need to ask A&L whether they did this and if so how this was authorised.

Hi Roly.

Sorry to disappoint, but that's wholly inaccurate and untrue. It would contravene the Data Protection Act to pass on details without the permission of the person concerned . It's simply something we never do. It's against the law.

As I explained to annie1969, the issue here is firmly the responsibility of A&L.

Re: Huckster's point: I can confirm that there are no "data feeds left open to UCC". We do not pass on any customer details without their express permission.

I hope that helps to clarify the situation.

The following thread in which Melanie Griffith from MS confirms the relationship with UCC may also assist.

http://www.moneysupermarket.com/community/forums/t/money-supermarket-and-ucc-26248.aspx

Anyway I will leave it for MS to deal with this and respond to individuals if they have an issue.

Edit Graeme, I have seen your post since. I think your IT guys need to check whether there are any data feeds left open to UCC. If there is no IT issue, as you say, perhaps A&L can shed some light on this.

Huckster

Hi annie1969,

I wonder if within the terms and conditions of the loan application a section allowed A&L to pass ALL your data around the world...the RAC owned by Norwich Union or AVIVA do......then perhaps a commisionis paid to A&L from SMOOOOOOTH OPERATOR (NOT) back for the intro....tghis way income stream for A&L from declining business............like insurers heads they win...tails you lose.......such is the Great British Business Morals within corporate bullies.....
