Agreeing to "let them contact your employer" is not the same thing as background check... you think that just because they called your manager, he/she is going to tell them your salary? no bro...
so don't worry, you are fine. I'd start worrying when they run a background check... ( btw this is NOT always before you start a job, that's not true at all. Some companies check during your first 3-6 month probation or 1 year after you're employed... It is 100% company based )

Tks bro. I thought contacting past employers means background check. Didn't know there's a separate consent? In my 14 yrs of work experience, I've never encountered such background checks. I checked with my previous HR and they told me they don't disclose unless the company can show my consent is given.
Then what do you suggest I do IF the new company asks me for consent for background checks? It's either die now or die later. Haii....
