II warning.

[Deleted User]

Hi,


just used my saved bookmark for Interactive Investor and got a 'Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead', so aborted.


Googled Interactive Investor and got through to log in page, no warning.


Just curious as to why the warning, anybody else getting this?

Have you checked your bookmark is pointing to the latest login address? They may have changed the login URL expecting people to navigate via their homepage?

Financial services organisations naturally have to ensure that their websites are well secured and so when they replace an old one with a new one, it's neither practical, beneficial nor cost-effective to keep the old one active and up to prevailing standards, beyond an initial transition period.

Chances are that the old page would have simply been a redirect to the new one anyway - what was the URL you'd bookmarked?

Hi,


huh, bookmark working now, , they were working on site at weekend, so maybe something to do with that.


My bookmark: https://www.ii.co.uk.

I got caught out with bookmarking the actual login page once (although it is my prefered method of bookmarking) with TD Direct when they posted some important information on the home page, rather than the actual log in page.

That was only three months ago - the blink of an eye in terms of the in-specie transfer process!

I did. I still have the login though, while the account is now (finally, took a while*) marked as "closed' but i can go in and print off transaction history etc (which I've done) as that was lost when i moved to HL, my cost of purchase is shown as the price at the point of transfer (there are two different companies shares in it)


* to be fair, mostly my fault
