Bankbazaar.com — Unauthorised Credit Score Request on my behalf

Hi Team,

I have been receiving unlimited calls from different banking institutions and bank bazaar on my good credit score selling their credit products to me. It was disturbing and striking to me as to why all of a sudden so many people are calling me. Upon checking my emails I see an email from Bank Bazaar stating that ‘Thank you for requesting your credit score’. I also see another email from Experian sending me my credit report. They have clearly listed that it was requested by me via Bankbazaar, wherein I DO NOT use this platform, and neither I had requested any such report. How does bank bazaar or any other financial institution handle customer sensitive data, including our phone numbers?

I want to request some rules around how our data is handled and tossed around. I want to know how easy has it become to get someone credit report? What is the policy in place to such unauthorised requests and what actions are you going to take against Bank Bazaar?

Thanks,
Dipti Rawat
