We used spectra of several bright, reddened stars, most of them likely to be obscured by individual interstellar clouds, to examine the proposition that C7- may carry several diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) (Tulej et al. 1998). To search for the broad features of the C7- B <- X system we used low resolution, very high S/N spectra, but even in heavily reddened objects the predicted bands remain undetectable. High resolution (R=80 000) spectra prove that the diffuse bands, found in close vicinity of narrow lines belonging to the A <- X system, show variable strength ratios from object to object which proves that they are not of the same origin. The paper brings thus evidence that the C7- molecule does not cause any of the detected DIBs.
