A database of cellphone bill defaulters

Customers who default on their payment to cellphone companies will find it increasingly difficult to cheat other companies in the near future.

The Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited (Cibil) is in talks with leading telecom companies to create a database of cellphone customers in the country on lines similar to that of a financial institution.

This will mean that every default on cellphone bills and the credit history of a customer would be available for mobile operators at the click of a mouse. Cibil is carrying out a pilot run in Mumbai in association with one of the main service providers.
