So have Carphone Warehouse been storing CRA data in clear text & put '000s at risk

I don't see any mention of the Carphone Warehouse / Talk Talk / Talkmobile / mobiles.co.uk lash up here yet?

Hint: It isn't so much a Telecoms issue as a CRA issue, and now those of us who have ever been a customer are having to try to bolt down hatches knowing that the horse already bolted but not knowing who might now try to get in where. The extent and type of personal data hacked may even be enough to use to massively facilitate hijacks of our CRA accounts.
