May I hide bank statement transactions when applying for a cellphone contract?

Don't you people have more than one bank account as well. I use a separate account for... Uhm.... confidential transactions. So even if they do request my bank statements, there won't be anything in there that would be of any exciting interest.

It’s probably the bank statement, the debit order will go off on.

Yeah thats fine. All normal transactions comes from my salary account. So there is nothing in there that would be worth looking further into for whatever stupid reason. Still find it intrusive to hand my statements to snakes like agents, they are very nosy people after all.

Only problem is that there has to be a salary paid into the account that you give statements.

Besides , what is this 3 month statement thing all about for a cell contract ? Damn they begged me to take a contract and all I gave them was my gardener cell number before it got approved.

lol they don’t care. You do it once, after that all you need to do is approve the debicheck for other contracts.
 
What is that saying

If there's smoke......

This is what any sensible person would think when you cross something out on any document, especially a financial one.

Nope, friends have done it before.
Just opening and closing balances, those credit score agencies exist for a reason.

Are you making a case for the thoughts of others?

Also hear say.

But yeah if you can get away with it, fair play.

Bank statements are usually only for proper "proof" of banking and confirming the incoming and outgoing
I've blocked out statement details and left amounts in the past,you never know though somebody might squeal or not

What would one need to hide though, realistically? For example
 
They are actually not interested in your spend btw, its your income they looking for. Specifically on the same days and obviously to match your payslip if you did specify one. From what I've been told they don't look at your balances as your debt is grabbed from the credit union which they're more interested in.

Seems fairly meh, was thinking along the lines of what would result in them declining credit whilst having reasonable finances, suppose if you are committing financial crimes or such it wouldn't be easy to spot.

Anyway.
