Failed Zimbabwean asylum seekers Edward Dzingai, aged 27, and Gregory Maumbe, 26, both worked at Norwich Union's Pomona House in Pear Street, Ecclesall Road.
They used their positions to gain access to the personal insurance policy details of 28 "gone away" customers - clients for whom the company had no current address - often targeting elderly or vulnerable people.

Ian West, prosecuting, told Sheffield Crown Court: "Dzingai and Maumbe's positions in the organisation gave them access to the computer databases - the names and details of the policy holders and copies of the signatures of these 'gone away' cases.
"They would use this information to manufacture fraudulent surrender letters and the funds would then be transferred to the bank accounts detailed on these letters."
They targeted 28 policies yielding more than £655,395 between September 2005 and October 2007.
When police raided their homes and examined their computers they found details of another 53 policies worth £1.5 million.
Dzingai, of Windy House Lane, Manor, and Maumbe, of Fretson Road, Manor, pleaded guilty to one count of conspiring to obtain money transfers by deception.
They claimed they were forced into the scam by men who threatened to hurt their families in Sheffield and Zimbabwe.
