Virgin bungle declares man dead 3 times

Fred Banagan knows to his cost that there's life after death. Bangan was declared dead by credit agency Equifax a record three times - despite the 52-year-old being very much of this world, busy running a care agency.

The confusion - traced to erroneous information from Virgin Mobile - saw Banagan billed multiple charges, time and time again. Even when technology claimed he was with his Maker.
