Movers

Absolute Movers is the UK's premier source for identifying individuals that have moved. Private and public data sources are used to accurately identify and validate individuals that have left an address, including:

• Customer informed moves
• Residency data from local authorities across the UK
• A consolidated database of active UK consumers

The file, containing over 40m records, is refreshed on a monthly basis and is used by more than 1,500 organisations in the UK. The Universal Suppression Service file is supplied by the Royal Mail and contains data sourced from postal returns (goneaways and deceased), confirmed goneaways, historic suppression files and redirection data. The principle behind the file is that the more times 'goneaway' information is recorded, the greater the likelihood the person has moved. The National Change of Address Goneaways service uses the National Change of Address file (sourced from the redirection service) to identify individuals who are no longer present at an address. The NCOA goneaways service contains information of those consumers who have not ticked the 'opt out' box when registering for the re-direction service. The Business Changes File from Royal Mail combines Royal Mail business redirections, Dunn & Bradstreet data and other third party data to track, monitor and update changes to business information on a monthly basis. The Business Updates service enables organisations to identify companies that have ceased trading or have moved premises (goneaways). The file contains over 2m records and is updated on a monthly basis with approximately 25,000-30,000 records.
