They probably hold more information on people than the government does. And it is all legal cos you sign up to them holding personal info on you when you open the account.

Purely out of interest AH, looking at your posts and questions, are you using this forum as a means of information (in whatever context) as part of a PhD thesis?

Nothing as interesting as that i'm afraid jonboy! ALthough 'the study of the effects of an obnoxious, opinionated loudmouth on forum posters' may make great reading for a PhD

The amount of MI driven by transaction history is phenomenal. The banks can tell how much you earn, where you live, where you shop, where you go etc. All the stuff in the movies about the FBI following catching people cos they are following the card transactions is quite possible...

This info is used primarily for Marketing but also for other things like fraud detection.

Damn now they know I'm an overweight, beer drinking, kebab eating biker. Anyone could have worked that out by looking at me.
