Zazinga can carry out discrete Criminal Background Checks without the individuals permission. This is an excellent service and one of our most popular requests as it not only confirms whether the individual has any past appearances but also any pending appearances too. It is also an excellent insight into an individuals background as it is important to remember that not all court appearances / charges follow a conviction.

A criminal records check, formerly known as a CRB and now called  a DBS check can only be done with the permission of the person being checked. Some jobs will require its candidates to get a DBS check done before they start their employment however the organisation will need to get the consent of the employee to carry out these checks. In some instances companies,organisations or even Landlords may want to know more than what the Standard and even Enhanced DBS Check can provide so also purchase the Criminal Background Check as none of the DBS Checks will show a pending court appearances that may result in a conviction. They will only list convictions.
