Do you have a mortgage? If so how would you feel about say me, or anyone for that matter being able to find out all the details of that? Well the Land Registry is about to publish them online to anyone prepared to pay a £30 fee.
All you can do is to complain to the Information Commissioner. Get their downloadable (Word) complaint form and send it to them as instructed. If you don't then your details go on and there is not a thing you can do about it.
Yet again the uber-state feels that it has the right to invade the privacy of the individual, pass on details to anyone it wants to and now anyone can gain access to what one would assume(wrongly) to be private information.
- From 12 July all newly registered leases and mortgages will be scanned into the register, adding around 10,000 documents daily to the existing database of more than 12 million deeds.
- Customers can download details including the title register (which shows who owns the property, whether it is mortgaged and the price paid), the title plan (which shows the land owned), and the deeds.
