    Fujitsu have now founnd a 500m.hole in their UK pension fund - this is more likely to affect their share price.
    This is about their old ICL pension scheme. This scheme has been closed for new members many years ago. Fujitsu have also said they expect to plug the hole by 2027. Minor issue IMO, no reason for any panic.

    The shortfall would have been larger but they found some extra money in one of their computer systems....

    Funny isn't it that lots of people think Royal Mail & the Post Office are the same thing......

    That's social media for you. Misinformation travels fast these days.

    I think I will now try to avoid Post Office for everything I can. They will certainly never have any of my savings. More disgusted by the day at the revelations being revealed. 
    I just watched the ITV programme myself. A shocking way to treat people. Similarly will be avoiding Fujitsu.
