    Hi, I've received an email from the Pension Ombudsman advising I'm one of the 17500 who's details have been compromised in a cyber attack earlier this year. I'm struggling to find any help and advice about this, they've got every single piece of information about me and the Ombudsman doesn't seem to think it's a big deal and have offered me a free Experian account for twelve months. Can anyone help me please?
    Hello, There is a court case going on about this....  further details to follow
  • Once further details emerge we will post it here, for those affected.   As far as you know when did the breach occur, I was told June 2023.  Also over how many days or hours were you told the has occurred over?  I was also affected by the way ...  seems rather a longtime to  have let us know so long after the event right?
