He also asked how my name appeared on the card.

Er, excuse me, what card? What other information did you give him other than sort code & a/c number (neither of which involve a card)?

"In an attempt to prove the press and public furore over the 2007 UK child benefit data scandal was a fuss about nothing, he published his own bank account number and sort code, together with instructions on how to find out his address, in The Sun newspaper, expecting nobody to be able to remove money from his account. He later discovered that someone had been able to set up a monthly direct debit for £500 to Diabetes UK."

Edit: Hmm... I now notice how old this thread is. Sorry for giving it another bump.

I think that's supposed to say welcome Feliciared - when you originally join this site, sometimes the posts are shown in reverse order which can cause new posters to unknowingly open very old threads which may well have happened here. You may wish to go into settings to amend this for future.

And the view that your spelling and grammar needs to be perfect is not shared by all - many of us try to be nice to all moneysavers as per the board guidleines!
