Telecom operators use information in your Credit Report and Credit Score to assess your creditworthiness ahead of making their decision to provide you with postpaid phone services or device purchases on installment basis.

Usually the purchased Credit Report or Credit Score is sent to the registered email within 8 hours. However, sometimes an instance may occur where the system will automatically prevent the email from being sent for technical reasons. In this case please call our Contact Center on 800-BUREAU (800-287328) and have the relevant information ready in order to register a service request.

Your Credit Report is not only a compilation of your credit history but also a reflection of your behavior towards payment obligations. Defaults missed payments and bounced cheques will always appear in your Credit Report up to a period of 5 years.

The personal historical information like addresses and previous employment records remains in the Credit Report even after a submission of new record. The old records will appear under the historical heading of the personal information.

Each credit facility in the Credit Report will show a color-coded 24-month history indicating whether the payment was made on time or delayed. If the payment for a particular month was paid more than 90 days after the due date, the box will be shaded red. If the payment for a particular month was paid with a delay up to 90 days after the due date, the box will be shaded yellow. If the payment for a particular month was paid on or before the due date, the box will be shaded green.
