Pity they never ask to see the licence with prepaids. Usually just tell em
on the phone or online when activating. Telstra never check, hence I was
able to activate several dodgy accounts under a Brisbane CBD address when
they had the $100 credit offer (limited to residents of SE QLD only) on
communic8 as it was called then.

and it's obvious Telstra don't use it either for prepaids because they have
never found-out dodgy accounts i activated in Brisbane addresses, so as to
take advantage of the SE-QLD COMMUNIC8 $100 credit offer

Baycorp's contract plans are about as many and varied as mobile phone plans.
What kind of fixed/monthly/retainer charges did the contractor pay?

Baycorp's ID Verification product? It doesn't have one as such.
It does offer to verify name, address, phone and drivers licence numbers and
it has a birth certificate search but that's limited to NSW and Vic only -
and it can't do oldies who's birth certificates haven't been digitised and
given an ID number either. It can't do people born O/S either. Name,
address and phone number details are usually easier to verify by other means
anyway. And Baycorp records of address and phone number are often out of
date. So yeah, it's a hit and miss system that, with the right inputs, can
sometimes spit out a positive but you would never rely on it to verify ID.
None of these details will be revealed by Baycorp unless the inquirer has
received customer permission and even then the Baycorp data is not "reverse
searchable" ie Baycorp won't give a customer someone's name if the customer
provides, say, a driving licence number. Almost by definition, such an
inquiry would imply that the Baycorp customer did not have its client's
permission.

It doesn't work at all well for names who live outside NSW and Vic. The
database seems to be quite limited and falls down completely when dealing
with young 'uns who have no credit record. As far as Baycorp is concerned,
they don't exist if they've never previously applied for credit, had their
name in the phone book or newspaper or electoral roll or were born outside
NSW/Vic. If they've had a bank account or a TFN, that doesn't help because
banks can't reveal customer info about minors (even with permission) and
aren't allowed to reveal such info unless the customer seeks credit and then
only with permission.

And if the licence DOES exist?
Mikey, you're talking crap. Why on earth would the RTA, or any other govt
licencing authority, set itself up as an ID verification bureau for private
business enquiries? If NSW does that, residents of that state have a right
to demand a reduction in licence fees and a cessation of the ID service.
RTA's etc only provide info to other govt departments like the coppers.

Its more complicated than that when you have say driver details from
an accident and want to know where the driver has moved to when
its no longer at the address you had. NSW wont give you that, but
most other states will.

$0 - But we were a part of a much larger company who, worldwide, would have
been pushing through a fair amount of transactions. The strange thing was
that we were dealing with them as an independant entity - not part of the
larger company.

If the details provided dont match you get "The RTA can respond with "This
licence does not match any details on hand with the RTA". ie. if the licence
number existed but it belonged to someone of different age, sex, name and
address
If the details were real, the RTA would respond with something like "we do
not believe this is a fake ID"
