    why offer noodle , when they as a company rate expedian as a better provider , and do not report to noodle?

    I simply copied and past the information on there website, maybe the talktalk rep on here could offer explanation, they seem unusually quiet
    Trinidad - I have a number of needs. Don't shoot me down if i get something wrong!!

    5:45pm - 23/10/2015 - Credit monitoring for all customers

    We are continuing to work closely with the Metropolitan Police Cyber Crime Unit and security experts following the major criminal cyber-attack on our website.

    At the same time, our priority continues to be explaining the steps you should take to protect yourselves. We have emailed customers and continue to use the media and other channels to update you as the situation develops.

    We know that issues like this can be worrying so we've partnered with Noddle, a credit reporting service from Callcredit, one of the leading credit reference agencies, to offer 12 months of credit monitoring alerts for free. This service can now be activated by using the following code: TT231.

    To sign up for Noddle and get your free credit monitoring alerts follow these steps.

    We are also working hard to get our services back up securely so they are available for customers to use safely and securely as soon as possible.

    We are extremely sorry for any concern and inconvenience this incident may have caused you.

    Not condoning TT for anything - but I dislike this baying mob mentality that is being exhibited, aided and abetted by the media
    perhaps you will change your mind, if you are compromised?
    are you with TT?

  • now go and check how old your data is ?


    this is the free service , that shows a "snapshot" taken on one day per month , your data can easily be 7 weeks out of date

    that's exactly what I said earlier;;
    it's a snapshot, not real time.
    you could have been wiped out before noddle shows up.
    that's why it's free.I get an e-mail every month saying it's been updated.
