The multi-million pound contract builds on an existing agreement between the two companies and is said to support TalkTalk’s drive for customer growth whilst continuing to control credit and fraud risk.
The agreement includes the Equifax Identity Verifier solution, which is designed to provide layered ID validation and fraud protection to clients.
“Our mobile base has grown strongly in the last two years. Recently we also launched the UK's first truly integrated quad-play proposition to our four million consumer and business broadband customers,” said Simon Rawlings, head of customer payment support, TalkTalk.
“As we accelerate our move into quad play, it’s vital that we are able to offer the right service to the right customers. This new contract with Equifax will allow us to make more informed decisions about the customers we do business with and also, to provide a superior service to them.”
