Im sure. I was involved in another business about 8 years ago. We applied to an insurance company for van insurance. For a contact number we used a prepay mobile phone, we give these to the lads in the vans so we can control costs).
I phoned an insurance company and gave all the information requested. When they asked for my number I used the same mobile number. They were able to tell me the name I traded under 8 years ago!. As it happens I have always used a broker, I just call insurance companies to check that my broker is getting me the best deal.
I was just surprised that the information was still held and I would like it removed.
