Guarantor Referencing Form

By completing this form, you have agreed to act as Guarantor for the tenant named within this form. The tenant’s reference will be completed by HomeLet on behalf of their letting agent. HomeLet is part of the Barbon Insurance Group Limited and for the purposes of this application, Barbon is the Data Controller as defined in the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”).

In order to complete this application, HomeLet will consult with a number of sources to verify the information, including a licensed credit reference agency. As a result of the information received:

• HomeLet may pass on any information supplied to the landlord and/or letting agent, including the results of any linked verification checks.

• By consulting with a credit reference agency, HomeLet will share your information with them and the agency may record the results of this search. This search may show how you conduct payments with other organisations. From time to time, this information may also be used for debt tracing and fraud prevention. You may request the name and address of the Credit Reference agency HomeLet use and you may also apply for a copy of the information they provided to HomeLet.

• If you default in respect of any covenants you have given as guarantor (including the payment of rent on behalf of the tenant when the tenant has failed to pay their rent), HomeLet may record this on a centrally held database of defaulting debtors, and such a default could affect any future application for tenancies, credit, and/or insurance.

• HomeLet may use debt collection agencies or tracing agents to trace your whereabouts and recover any monies owed to HomeLet.

• The personal information we have collected from you will be shared with fraud prevention agencies who will use it to prevent fraud and money-laundering and to verify your identity. If fraud is detected, you could be refused certain services, finance, or employment. Further details of how your information will be used by us and these fraud prevention agencies, and your data protection rights, can be found on our website: homelet.co.uk

Information may be sent to you and your nominated referees by email. This information will only be sufficient enough to identify you and it won’t be excessive; however you should be aware that information sent via electronic means can’t be guaranteed to be secure.
