Love that Wine giving out names and postcodes! (UPDATED)

toniq

I tried to send them an email to them but it bounced?

I'm thankfully not a member,
I'm sure that the company hasn't done this intentionally, it's probably some sort of huge error with the website that has meant these details are now public.
So would want to fix the situation as soon as they are made aware of it.

Whilst I can understand the theory of warning people via facebook, twitter etc by doing so it is also publicising the fact that these details are available for anyone to get hold of.

Has anyone who is a member tried to contact the PR to request/insist that they get in touch with the company?

As it's the only number on the site and so far there has been no response from emails, tweets etc.

Quote "For press enquiries please contact Green Row PR on 020 8960 8950"
