    No it won't pick up your Tiscali connection that is a different kind of dongle which will enable your pc to pick up your connection via a wireless router.

    you should change any passwords straight away and keep an eye on transactions over the next 5 working days.. other than that don't worry!!

    huggychair, do you know how to change the password?
    There is no option on my online account to change such password. i remember i set the password when the "security password" webpage pops up when i was making a payment.

    This sounds great. Can I use it both in the UK and abroad, whilst on holidays?

    What sort of price are you charged per minute?

    Thanks

    £10 for 1GB, £15 for 3GB, £25 for 7GB, all valid for 30 days. If you don't buy one of these £1 per MB.

    Using abroad, in some countries (Austria, Denmark, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy and Sweden) AND you have bought a bundle AND you are roaming on the right network AND before 30th June (because they are changing their tariffs on that date), then any usage comes out of that. Otherwise £3 per MB for most of Europe otherwise £6 per MB (i.e. incredibly (and that's an understatement) expensive).

    If you REALLY want one, order on your debit card and then call your bank for a new card, for your own security.

    Wrong. The implementation depends on the bank concerned. Some require your full password.

    Sorry if that's the case. I have used accounts on 4 different banks and they have all only ever required 3 random digits from my SecureCode. I would suggest that this is a lot more secure than having to enter the whole code.
