The personal data of more than ten thousand Lloyds Premier Banking customers has gone missing and is suspected to have been stolen by fraudsters.
Police are investigating the disappearance of a storage device that contains people's names, addresses, sort codes and account numbers, after it was taken from a data centre in July, the Telegraph has learned.
The incident is the latest in a string of high-profile data breaches in which customers of companies, including adultery website Ashley Madison, Carphone Warehouse and Barclays, have had personal data stolen.
The breach affects customers who had RSA emergency home cover attached to their £25 a month Lloyds Premier bank account and made a claim between 2006 and 2012.

SO much for premier.

presumably they fancied them as they are their customers most likely to have some spare moolah? let's hope they don't apply a similar logic to RBS:eek:;)

It's RSA who have lost the data, not Lloyds.

Doubt that matters to customers.

It happened in July - it is now mid September - how many people have had their accounts ''hacked''?

If the data had been stolen to order by criminals it surely would have been used by now.
