    Apparently they also leak financial data for talktalk. No idea how many of my accounts and credit cards they have details of.

    Have I missed something? I used to use their phone service talkmobile (till I discovered three, of course).

    Only 2.4 million customers' full details have been hacked...... it was breaking news this afternoon(ish).

    Don't quote photo, will delete in the morning.

    I am often the V over on the alphabetty thread, mostly because there aren't many Vs who are regularly online. Zag is always the Z since Zennith got PPRd.

    It is totally silly and v different from here, but fun. I think Zag may have asked me to post there originally. They've been stuck on G a few times, so don't be surprised if you get asked again. It's a bit like the Hotel California in that respect. It's a good opportunity to meet other regulars from different parts of the forum though. Plus they are all as mad as cheese.

    They always get stuck on X.

    I've been C twice now, both times due to the regular PM'ing me and asking if I'd like it.

    I'd have thought its relatively common for some letters, including that you wouldn't expect.

    I'm against violence, but I was thinking that, too.

    What is the issue with someone always needing to do something to be considered 'normal'? Surely everyone is unique in their own way, and that's good for society as a whole.

    Her face said more than I wanted to say to him, and unfortunately for him, I repeated what he said rather loudly in Georgian over the bar when asked.....

    I don't know where he thinks he is, but here, women are respected :)

    Talking is generally more effective and more prudent.

    But occasionally the liberal application of a sound thrashing is required in order to make exceptionally rude people see the errors of their ways.:)

    Carphone Warehouse is also Talk Talk? Better investigate as both my parents and brother are with them.

    It's also Curry's, Dixon and PC World. The systems aren't necessarily integrated yet of course. They reckon that 'synergies' won't be fully realised until 2017/8 so perhaps that means that the rest of the group wasn't hacked. Or perhaps it was. Who knows?
